Preface
This wiki contains fundamentals of data-analysis techniques used in higher-energy particle physics (PP). It covers a broad range of topics, from the basic concepts to the numerical algorithms used for modern particle-collision experiments. Each chapter is complemented with analysis code snippets to be readable by anyone who has done a little programming.
