Begin4 Title: biochemmathphys Version: 2.0 Entered-date: 2004-07-14 Description: Linux operating system based on Debian Knoppix type aiming at student's tools in natural science theoretical physics as well as experimental physics.It includes engineering math with scilab-2.7 octave,gnu-R ,symbolic algebra GiNaC glued with numerous math libraries CLN,NTL,GMP.. together with the famous C interpreted ROOT data analysis tool from CERN. The starting point comes from knoppix-VigyaanCD built by a Agarwal P K ,a scientist at oak ridge lab, so I keep the whole interesting assemblage about biology chemistry tools as a plus to math-phys students. This version is remastered with kernel-2.6.6 patched with squashfs to build the KNOPPIX_image (thanks P Knopper,P Lougher,P Agarwal,R Brun,inria's scilab ,GiNaC's people and of course all the free software authors) Good documentations inside the cd can be found at all about Linux newbies /usr/share/doc/selflinux/ scilab engineering math /usr/lib/scilab-2.7/ algebra & data analysis /usr/local/root/share/doc/[algebra,ginac,cln,ntl,root,Cint,gtybalt ] /usr/local/doc/NTL Keywords: Linux operating system, scilab octave, gnu R,GiNaC ,gTybalt ,TeXmacs ,ROOT Author:hoan@wanadoo.fr Maintained-by: hoan@wanadoo.fr Primary-site: ftp://www.ibiblio.org/pub/linux/ Alternate-site: Original-site: Platforms: Copying-policy: FPD End
