There are [[PyGTK_Screenshots|more screenshots]].]] ASCEND is a free open-source software program for solving small to very large mathematical models. ASCEND can solve systems of non-linear equations, linear and nonlinear optimisation problems, and dynamic systems expressed in the form of differential/algebraic equations. There is an '''[[ASCEND_overview|ASCEND Overview]]''' with more information about ASCEND capabilities. Alternatively, you can look at some [[PyGTK_Screenshots|screenshots]] or some [[Worked_examples|example problems]] solved using ASCEND. {{download|{{currentversion}}|Please read the [[Quick_Start|Installation notes]]!}} <font color="red">'''News:'''</font> ASCEND is [https://github.com/ascend4/ascend4 migrating to Github], with new CI [https://github.com/ascend4/ascend4/actions via Github Actions]. <small>[http://sourceforge.net/news/?group_id=167528 (more news)]</small> == In this wiki... == * some new [[:Category:Documentation|user's documentation]] (in progress) * some information on the various ASCEND [[solvers]]. * the [[Worked examples]] and the [[model library]] for some examples of what you can do with ASCEND. * information on [[Building ASCEND]] from the source code * information about extending ASCEND using [[external libraries]]. * read about current [[Development activities]]. * the [[Developer's Manual]] in progress. * some ideas for [[Student Projects]] working on ASCEND. * please '''[[Debugging_ASCEND|report a bug]]''' if you find one.
