PhyPraKit

Version 1.2.10, Date 2026-09-14

PhyPraKit is a collection of python modules for data visualization and analysis in experimental laboratory courses in physics and is in use in the Department of Physics at Karlsruhe Institute of Technology (KIT). As the modules are intended primarily for use by undergraduate students in Germany, the documentation is partly in German language, in particular the description of the examples.
