Description-en: CERNLIB data analysis suite - general use metapackage
CERNLIB is a suite of data analysis tools and libraries created for
use in physics experiments, but also with applications to other
fields such as the biological sciences.
.
This metapackage provides almost all of the programs and libraries contained
in CERNLIB. Most people will likely want only a subset of these. A few
extra CERNLIB programs, not of interest to many people, may be obtained via
the cernlib-extras metapackage.
