0015 Introduction to ROOT
0016 ====================
0017
0018
0019 ROOT is a collection of applications, utilities and C++ libraries that
0020 is designed for analyzing data. ROOT is particularly well suited to
0021 analyzing large amounts of data, as it has been specially optimized for
0022 this purpose (ROOT can easily handle terabyte data samples).
0023
0024 Included with ROOT are histograms in 1, 2 and 3 dimensions, and
0025 facilities for curve fitting, function evaluation and minimization.
0026 Graphics and visualization classes allow the easy setup of an analysis
0027 system that can query and process the data interactively or in batch
0028 mode.
0029
0030 Thanks to the builtin C++ interpreter (called `cint') the command
0031 language, scripting (or macro) language and programming language are all
0032 one in the same, namely C++.
0033
0034 `cint' allows for fast prototyping of macros since it removes the time
0035 consuming compile/link cycle. It also provides a good environment to
0036 learn C++. If more performance is needed then the interactively
0037 developed C++ macros can be compiled using a C++ compiler and then
0038 dynamically linked in at runtime.
0039
0040 ROOT is an open system that can be dynamically extended by linking
0041 with external libraries. This makes ROOT a premier platform on which
0042 to build data acquisition, simulation and data analysis systems.

0044 The ROOT home page is http://root.cern.ch/.

0048 Introduction to RDBC
0049 ====================
0050
0051
0052 This library is ROOT wrappers around libodbc++ <http://orcane.net/freeodbc++>
0053 Author: Manush Dodunekov <manush@stendahls.net>
0054
0055 This library aims for JDBC-2.0 'compliance'
0056 <http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.3/docs/api/java/sql/package-summary.htm>
0057
0058 It provides the single application programming interface (API) for accessing
0059 different types of relational databases.
