Program to fit to Poisson distributed data. Uses actual Poisson probability (i.e. not Gaussians, and therefore not least squares). ### Installation Download using:
``git clone https://www.av8n.com/cgit/poissfit`` Requires the `libnlopt-cxx-dev` package, which is easily installable on Ubuntu and similar platforms. In the poissfit directory, compile using a simple `make` command. That works on my Ubuntu platform. Other platforms are likely to work; the code uses fairly basic language features (c++11 or later). Some data files, suitable for input to the program, can be found [here](https://github.com/paulnord/bayesian_analysis).
