Frida - Fast reliable interactive data analysis
frida2
FRIDA is software for scientific data analysis. Its data model is quite generic (data files consist of x-y-dy tables that are differentiated by z coordinates), so that it can be used for many different kinds of observational data. The original field of application of FRIDA is inelastic neutron scattering which is supported through many specialized routines. However, FRIDA has also been used for the analysis of time series in the telecommunication industry, and it has helped to reveal blatant shortcomings in educational statistics.
Frida1, written in FORTRAN, was developped in the 1990s. The original name IDA was changed to FRIDA just because there were too many other open-source projects all called IDA.
Frida2 is written C++. It is being actively developed.
