The first version of JMP, version 1.0, was released in 1989. Developed by John Sall, a renowned statistician, and a team of researchers at SAS Institute, JMP was initially designed to provide an interactive, user-friendly interface for statistical analysis. This version was written in C and used the SAS/AF (Application Framework) platform. JMP 1.0 offered basic statistical procedures, such as descriptive statistics, hypothesis testing, and linear regression. jmp version history
