SMOOTH

It is often necessary to smooth high frequency fluctuations out of data streams sequenced by time, position, etc. The 'smooth' utility applies such smoothing using the wavelet algorithm.


INSTALL

To install smooth, simply extract the download file into some folder on your computer:
 
    $ cd /path/to/some/folder
    $ tar -xzf smooth-<#.#.#>.tar.gz

where #.#.# is your smooth version (e.g. 1.0.0).  
 
In most cases you will want to add ‘/path/to/some/folder/smooth-<#.#.#>’ to your system PATH variable so that it is available to you from any server directory by simply typing ‘smooth’.  Details of how to do this will depend on your computer and account configuration.
