| Software Tools at Cedar Creek Natural History Area | Home |
Recorded here is source code for various software tools used in the
Cedar Creek operation.
The material is made available primarily as complete documentation of our computer operations and to support easier communication among our computer personnel, but also to make the code available to others around the world who might be able to use and improve it. These programs and modules are typically written in C (see "Format of source code" below). Most are rather general and would apply at other sites. Some are very general, such as a fast and simple sorting routine (PDF), which not only makes a good computer application but also makes an excellent example to use in teaching recursive programs.
This section of the web site will be mainly of interest to computer programmers, where the easy access of the web will make the arcane world of programming a little more accessible. The various files are either ASCII or PDF. If you use any of these tools, we would enjoy hearing about your applications (email lehman@umn.edu). Please acknowledge the source of any software you apply.
