\fBlibmsnumpress\fP 		 \(em 			Implementations of two compression schemes for numeric data from mass spectrometers. 
 
.SH "DESCRIPTION" 
.PP 
This manual page documents briefly the 
\fBlibmsnumpress\fR software package. 
 
The library provides implementations of 3 different algorithms, 1 designed to 
compress first order smooth data like retention time or M/Z arrays, and 2 for 
compressing non smooth data with lower requirements on precision like ion count 
arrays.
