-Documentation of TOL is still poor and it is almost all written in spanish, but we are working to enhance this situation. Any help will be welcome.
+Time Oriented Language, hereafter TOL is a programming language designed for analysis of time series and stochastic processes based on the algebraic representation of time and the time series which allows:
+ * Give structure to the data from operational systems, giving them a temporary support and classifier, which makes them useful information to understand their behavior.
+ * Analyze the dynamic information, generate statistical models, to identify factors that influence the timing behavior and extract knowledge.
+ * Facilitate decision making knowledge inferred from statistical models, forecasts of behavior, and decision functions.
+
+Time is a continuous magnitude represented as the real line, but when dealing with time series of social nature (sales, phone calls, bank transactions, event attendance, traffic, etc.), the analyst notes on behaviors involving different temporal characteristics such as cycles within a period (which may be the day, week, month, year ...); or proximity to holidays, bridges and any other identifiable events when they occur.
 
 You can find [TolTechDesc in this page] a technical description of TOL.
