Axum combines the capabilities of a business graphing package
with statistics, data editing, and curve fitting, according to
Trimetrix. After you import data in Lotus 1-2-3, dBASE, or ASCII
format, Axum can produce 2D, 3D, and contour plots and charts,
including logarithmic axes, 3D mesh and line, and error bar
plots.
 
With the data editor, you can transform, generate, and analyze
data. You can perform statisitical analyses, curve fitting, and
smoothing on data sets as large as your system memory can handle,
the company says. Axum's programming language includes 100
functions and operators. The graph editor lets you add comments,
arrows, and symbols; you can combine multiple plots and rotate
and reshape 3D objects. More than 20 fonts, including scientific
and Russian, are provided.
 
Axum can generate output for HPGL, PostScript, GEM, Lotus PIC,
and Tektronix devices. The program runs on the IBM PC with 640K
bytes of RAM.
 
Price: $495.
