Is ROOT for me?

ROOT
1

Hello,
I am doing simulations on Josephson Junctions commutations. Those imply random numbers, and statistic distributions. I want to analyze (fit, extract data) from probability distributions obtained from the simulations. However, all the computing will be made on a cluster, and I want to make all the process automatic. (I want to extract the data and make fit from within the program, on the cluster). My question is then : Is ROOT good for what I want to do ? Is it for me ?

I ask that question because I saw a lot of GUI things, and, needless to say, there is no possibility for a GUI on a cluster.

Thank you

You can perfectly use ROOT for a pure batch non interactive application.
Even in this mode you can do fits and produce graphics pictures in
ps, pdf, gif, jpg, etc formats
