- What Xi is all about -
Xi is an interactive C-like programming-language with intuitivly usable vector extensions. Therefore Xi is tailormade for quick analysis and manipulation of data from numerical simulations or scientific experiments. It is capable of wide ranged numerical manipulations and visualisation technics producing pixel or vectororiented output (including output for the raytracer Povray). Xi also supports the message passing system PVM to accelerate complex visualisations by using a workstation cluster as a parallel computer. At the moment Xi is under rapid development. The newest extension is a Java implementation of the two dimensional graph window.
