With finaquant® protos (non-commercial) or finaquant® calcs (commercial) a .NET developer has everything she needs for analytical table computations and database connection (i.e. storing and reading complete data tables).
Sometimes, tables need to be broken down into matrices for detail processing. As shown in our related forum post, the available matrix and vector functions in finaquant libraries can easily be extended with other numerical .NET libraries like ILNumerics that offer more specific functions for statistics and optimization.
Reporting (presenting data visually in well-formatted layouts and pdf files) is the only missing link. Luckily, basic reporting functionality is built in Visual Studio and .NET framework. Following video demonstrates how a simple report with a parameter can be created with ReportViewer:
