SciDAVis is a free scientific data analysis and graphing software for Windows. Using it, you can easily plot scientific graphs of various types like Line Graph, Scatter Graph, Vertical Bar Graph, Horizontal Bar Graph, etc. In it, you can also plot 3D graphs of four types namely Ribbons, Trajectory, Bars, and Scatter. SciDAVis an open-source program for graphing and analyzing numeric data. It has ca-pabilities similar to a number of commercial programs, such as Kaleidagraph, SigmaPlot, Origin and IgorPro. The design of SciDAVis is similar to that of Origin, and SciDAVis can import at least some Origin les.
