										intuitive visual modeling with influence diagrams
									
      • 
								
    • 
											
													
										the convenience and power of  Intelligent Arrays

									Free Analytica has no time limit. The only constraint is it won’t let you create more than 100 variables or other objects. But your model can be quite substantial since each variable can be a multidimensional array. It also lets you explore, change inputs, and run existing models of any size (excluding features unique to the Enterprise or Optimizer editions).
