| PAW is conceived as an instrument to assist physicists in
the analysis and presentation of their data. It provides interactive graphical
presentation and statistical or mathematical analysis, working on objects
familiar to physicists like
histograms,
event files
(Ntuples),
vectors,
etc.
PAW is based on several
components
of the
CERN Program Library.

If you are not familiar with PAW and want to learn how to use
it, this is probably a place to go.
The sources of the tutorial
examples are also available.
Some
other tutorials or help about PAW can be also useful to

Manual
|
The PAW reference manual (equivalent to the online HELP) is the
complete description of all the PAW commands. The
PAW User's Guide is available in Postscript format
(1.05 Mbytes).
All the
CERNLIB manuals are also
available. The
man page
gives the various options which can be used when you start
PAW.

of PAW for different architectures and operating systems. This
page also
gives the list of the platforms on which PAW is supported by
the CERN program library.
