'''GAUSS''' is a matrix [[programming language]] for [[mathematics]] and [[statistics]], developed and marketed by Aptech Systems. Its primary purpose is the solution of numerical problems in statistics, [[econometrics]], [[time-series]], optimization and 2D- and 3D-[[Visualization (computer graphics)|visualization]]. It was first published in 1984 for [[MS-DOS]] and is available for [[Linux]], [[macOS]] and [[Microsoft Windows|Windows]].{{cite web|url=https://www.aptech.com/resources/tutorials/beginner-program-nearest-neighbor-search/#step-1-create-a-new-gauss-program-file|title=Beginner Program: Nearest Neighbour Search|website=Aptech|access-date=2020-02-06|quote=GAUSS does not require any particular file extension for GAUSS program files, however, {{mono|.gss}} is recommended.}}
