Hello List Im interesting to open a project for build a geostatistical open source software, with this criteria: a) extreme simple code b) Math is most important, graphic is secondary. c) Modular, as GSLIB, to make easy changes. d) Star with basic (variograms and kriging) e) End with advanced (plurigaussian, DK, or yours on methods) f) This item is for your advice The question is what do you prefer for programming Matlab: is really easy, but it is not free (I hope the code is free, the you can compile executable or c code in an institution with matlab license ) C, C++, know for a lot of peoples, bunt not as simple as programmers says. The advantage is that exist a lot of free compilers and toolkits as QT, glade, Visual studio C++, etc. there is also a lot of preprogramming algorithms Python, it is really easy, and simple, it is possible to do also GUI with QT python, is platform free and interpreted language (you roon directly de source code, the system: windows, linux, etc. doesnt matter ) Other really easy programming languages can be used, as visual basic, but it is only for windows Fortran is obsolete. TCL or Visual TCL, It is interpreted language as Python, but too slow, it is really useful to build GUIs. My Idea is make a GUI with visual TCL and make separate executables, as in GSLIB, with matlab (compiled), or use C++ for math Finally, I was trying to play with SGEMS, but it is not as simple as it look What is your advice?
