Hello,

Today, I'm happy to present you the Debian package mn-fit, which is
part of the science section, and maintained by Kevin B. McCarty
<kmccarty at debian.org>. 

This package contains : interactive analysis package for fitting data
and histograms.

Mn_Fit can perform a wide variety of mathematical fits and analyses on data
or histograms read in from a file.  The program is interactive with a
graphical display, so it is easy for the user to explore different fits
while viewing the results.  Many functions are built into the package, and
new ones can be added.

Some capabilities of Mn_Fit include built-in maximum likelihood fits,
fitting of 1-D and 2-D histograms, fitting several histograms
simultaneously, applying constraints on function parameters, and limited
use of Monte Carlo statistics.  The program can produce PostScript output
of a quality suitable for publication.  Mn_Fit is based on time-tested
Cernlib software including MINUIT, COMIS, and HIGZ.

To build a Mn_Fit executable that includes custom user-defined functions, you
also must install the mn-fit-dev package.
