-
-Last Modified : 13th July 2009

-Author : Nicola Talbot
-
-datatool.sty:
-
- Databases can be created using LaTeX commands or loaded
- from external ASCII files, such as comma or tab separated
- variable files.
-
- Databases can be sorted numerically or alphabetically
- (descending or ascending.)
-
- Repetitive operations can be performed on each row of
- data in a database (such as mail merging.) Conditions
- can be imposed to exclude rows.
-
- Commands are provided to determine if an argument is
- an integer, a real number, currency or a string.
- (Scientific notation is currently not supported.)
-
- Locale dependent number settings are supported
- (such as a comma as a decimal character and full stop as
- a number group character.)
-
- Commands are provided to convert between locale dependent
- numbers/currency and the standard decimal format required
- by the fp package enabling fixed point arithmetic to be
- performed on elements of the database.
-
- Strings can be tested to determine if they are all upper
- or all lower case.
-
- Names can be converted to initials using \DTLinitials.
-
-datapie.sty:
-
- A database defined by datatool.sty can be converted into a
- pie chart.
-
- Segments can be separated from the rest of the chart to make
- them stand out.
-
- Colour/grey scale options.
-
- Predefined segment colours can be changed.
-
- Hooks provided to annotate chart.
-
-dataplot.sty:
-
- A database defined by datatool.sty may be plotted as a 2D
- scatter or line plot
-
- Settings provided to govern the appearance of the chart.
- (e.g. show/hide axes, legend, grid, major/minor tick marks.)
-
- Hooks provided to add extra information to the plot
-
-databar.sty:
-
- A database defined by datatool.sty can be converted into a
- bar chart.

- database.
-
-*The datatool bundle replaces the csvtools bundle which is now obsolete.*
-
-REQUIRED PACKAGES:
-
-The datatool.sty package requires the following packages/files:
-
-xkeyval
-ifthen
-xfor
-fp
-substr
-etex
-
-The datapie.sty, dataplot.sty and databar.sty packages
-additionally require the tikz/pgf bundle.
