# Conclusion and perspectives

The TISEAN project makes available a number of algorithms of nonlinear time series analysis to people interested in applications of the dynamical systems approach. To make proper use of these algorithms, it is not essential to have witten the programs from scratch, an effort we intend to spare the user by making TISEAN public. Indispensable, however, is a good knowledge of what the programs do, and why they do what they do. The latter requires a thorough background in the nonlinear time series approach which cannot be provided by this paper but rather by textbooks like Refs. [10, 2], reviews [11, 12, 3], and the original literature [9]. Here, we have concentrated on the actual implementation as it is realized in TISEAN and on examples of the concrete use of the programs.
