Yeti (c) 2005
Yeti can be downloaded here
In short, Yeti features are (see QUICK REFERENCE in README file for a list of all Yeti functions):
* hash table objects
* regular expressions
* complex, real-complex and complex-real FFT by FFTW (the Fastest Fourier Transform in the West - version 2)
* wavelet filtering ("` trou" method)
* fast convolution along a chosen dimension with various border conditions
* more string functions
* memory hacking routines
* more math functions (sinc, round, arc)
* generalized matrix-vector multiplication (with possibly sparse matrix)
* routines to query/check Yorick's symbols
* support for reading TIFF images
* morpho-math operators
* ...
This distribution of Yeti comes with several plugins (depending whether corresponding directories exist or not):
* yeti - principal plugin (only requires Yorick 1.6)
* yeti_fftw - support for FFTW
* yeti_regex - support for POSIX regular expressions
* yeti_tiff - support for reading TIFF images
