-JDB is package of commands for manipulating flat-ASCII databases from
-shell scripts. JDB is useful to process medium amounts of data (with
-very little data you'd do it by hand, with megabytes you might want a
-real database). JDB is very good at doing things like:
-
- - extracting measurements from experimental output
- - re-examining data to address different hypotheses
- - joining data from different experiments
- - eliminating/detecting outliers
- - computing statistics on data (mean, confidence intervals,
- correlations, histograms)
- - reformatting data for graphing programs
