ROOT stand for "<R>OOTs <O>bject-<O>riented <T>echnologies" - it is an object
oriented data anlaysis framework written in C++. ROOT has its origin at the
Centre Europeenne pour la Recherche Nucleaire (CERN) and is a cross platform
tool well-known to high energy physicists, but it's also used in a wide range
of other data analysis applications. The system consists of the C/C++
interpreter CINT (for interactive development and rapid prototyping) and
hundreds of classes, which provides functionalities u.a. for:
- Data Histogram and Minimization Operations
- Linear Algebra, Matrix and Vector Operations
- Tree, Ntuple and other Data Containers/Stuctures
- 2D Graphics, 3D Graphics and Detector Geometry Modeling
- Graphical User Interface
- Operating System and Networking Interface
- Inline Documentation and PostScript Interface
- PROOF Server (parallel computing)
For more information, user manuals, tutorials, how-to's, examples,
discussion groups and so on look at the ROOT web site:
