RapidFit is an XML driven Minuit Fitting tool written in C++ and makes heavy use of inheritance and baseclasses
RapidFit is used in multiple Analyses with many PDFs coded up in the pdfs/ folder of the source code
RapidFit supports Mutli-Threaded fitting as well as being compiled to run on the Grid as a ROOT library which allows for complex analyses to be reproduced quickly and efficiently
PDFs in RapidFit interface with the main codebase by providing methods to Evaluate( DataPoint* ) and Normalise( DataPoint*, PhaseSpace* )
RapidFit is capable of performing Complex Scans in 1/2 dimension(s) whilst making full use of all of the underlying technology available to a normal fit which makes performing complex scans straight forward
RapidFit is capable of performing a complex FeldmanCousins Analysis to act as a cross-check with results which have been produced using simpler scanning code
RapidFit is capable of producing XML templates for various reasons as well as having it's own simple XML interpretor for portability and quick features
