-Welcome to the Analytica Wiki!  It is a shared resource, to be created by and for the entire community of Analytica users. For now, it offers introductions to the new features of Analytica 4.0 for the use of beta testers.  Over time, it will grow to include a great deal more, including FAQs, tips, examples, shared libraries, and more detailed reference material.
