Kpl is a program for the KDE project (K Desktop Environment,
http://www.kde.org/). It is used for
two- and three-dimensional graphical visualization of data sets and
functions.
All settings necessary for a complete description of the presentation
can be saved in plot files. These files as well as data files may be
chosen by command line parameters, using the File menu, or by drag and
drop.
The settings of a presentation may be changed using the Edit menu.
Here also additional data sets and functions can be included which can be
displayed in the same as well as in different data windows.
Multidimensional nonlinear parameter fits of functions to data sets
can be performed using the Levenberg-Marquardt algorithm. Also general
linear regression and smoothing spline interpolation are possible.
Automatic scaling and normalization allow the easy graphical
presentation of data. Also parameter fits can be performed automatically.
A D-BUS interface can be used to control Kpl by other
applications and scripts.
A shared library allows to use the functionality of Kpl by other
applications.
Currently full language support is given for English and German.
