What You always wanted to know about Herb Pickett's
spectroscopy programs but were afraid to ask
Well, I am sure that not all of your problems regarding Herb's programs
will be solved after having gone through all the documentations and
examples, but hopefully some aspects will have become a bit clearer.
While it is not necessary to be an expert in spectroscopy or pickettology
in order to use his programs successfully a certain knowledge of
spectroscopy and a tad of abstract thinking may be useful.
At some
point later we intend to include information on some other programs that
we are using . . .
