What's new in Meta Numerics 2.2.0

Aug 12, 2013
  • Multidimensional integration.
  • Polynomial interpolation, arithmetic, and calculus.
  • Faster non-uniform deviates and probit functions.
  • Exact Kendall, Kolmogorov-Smirnov, Kuiper, and Spearmann null distributions for small sample sizes.
  • Fit samples to Gamma and Lognormal distributions. Improved performance of other FitToSample methods.
  • Matrix powers and utility methods.

New in Meta Numerics 2.1.0 (Aug 12, 2013)

  • Improved FFT. Fourier transforms are fast for all lengths, even those with large prime factors.
  • More advanced functions: incomplete elliptic integrals of the second kind, the polygamma function, and complex exponential integrals. New Bessel function methods simultaneously return (J, J', Y, Y') or (I, I', K, K'). New advanced integer functions include primality testing and harmonic numbers.
  • SpareSquareMatrix now supports the iterative solution of large systems of equations.
  • New statistical analysis features include sample transformations, polynomial regression for bivariate samples, and fitting samples to beta distributions.

New in Meta Numerics 2.0.0 (Aug 12, 2013)

  • Singular Value Decomposition (SVD), sparse matrices, matrix norms, and a new matrix hierarchy
  • Fast Fourier Transforms (FFT), including non-power-of-2 lengths
  • Principal Component Analysis (PCA), logistic regression, Kruskal-Wallis test
  • Easier to load data from databases or Excel spreadsheets
  • More distributions: Gamma, Pearson, discrete uniform, discrete geometric
  • Faster, dedicated methods to fit distributions to samples and generate nonuniform random deviates

New in Meta Numerics 1.5.0 (Aug 12, 2013)

  • More speical functions: associated Legendre and Laguerre polynomials, elliptic integrals, integer partitions
  • Faster matrix multiplication, inversion, LU and QR decomposition
  • More statistical tests: Z test, sign test, one-way ANOVA
  • More probability distributions, including discrete distributions like Binomial and Poisson
  • Bug-fixes and improved documentation

New in Meta Numerics 1.4.0 (Aug 12, 2013)

  • Many new advanced functions: modified Bessel functions, Airy function, Coulomb wave functions, Dilogarithm function.
  • Linear regression of multivariate data sets, with covariances and a F-tested significance.
  • 6j symbols and other new spinor math functions.
  • Triangular and beta distributions.
  • Improved documentation.
  • Bugfixes to chi squared inverse PDF function and complex tanget function.
