What's new in version 6.2.0?
pro Fit 6.2 comes with a large list of enhancements. Here are some highlights:
- Built-in Python support. Python within pro Fit is a full equivalent of pro Fit's own, built-in Pascal scripting language and can be used for defining pro Fit programs and functions. Python is a mature programming language with a rich feature set well-suited for scientific calculus, and it allows you to tap a vast choice of scientific libraries, such as numpy and scipy.
- Fitting algorithms. The fitting algorithms have been modified for better convergence and more versatility in multidimensional fitting. A "simple curve fit" command provides quick access to pro Fit's fitting algorithms without going through a dialog box first.
- Data processing: New commands for convolution and correlation, revamped sorting capabilities, improved text file import.
- Preview window: Built-in automatic fitting tool.
- Performance: Various parts of pro Fit have been optimized for threaded processing and yield improved performance on multicore CPUs.
- and more...
