  Description     : application for scientific data analysis and visualization

 SciDAVis is an application for data analysis and visualization.
 .
 Some of SciDAVis' features are:
  * Tables, matrices, graphs and notes are gathered in a project and can be
    organized using folders.
  * Tables for entering data directly or importing from ASCII files.
  * Column-based computations using standard and special functions.
  * Many built-in analysis operations like column/row statistics,
    (de)convolution, FFT and FFT-based filters.
  * Extensive support for fitting linear and nonlinear functions to the data,
    including multi-peak fitting.
  * 2D plots in a variety of formats, including symbols/lines, bars and pie
    charts.
  * Interactive 3D plots with export to a variety of formats, including EPS
    and PDF.
  * Note windows with support for in-place evaluation of mathematical
    expressions. Also other objects in the project can be accessed to e.g.
    rapidly writing an import filter for a custom data format.
