StatLib---UTexas Archive

This collection consists of FORTRAN source code and documentation for a number of computer routines, generally motivated by biostatistics applications.

Each files in this collection is a uuencoded, compressed, TAR archive -- except for stplan.doc.uuen which is just a uuencoded, compressed file. To obtain (say) the ksbin collection, send the following message

send ksbin.uuen from utexas StatLib will respond by sending you several mail messages. The first message will be instructions on how to put the mail messages back together to recover the original file (that is ksbin.uuen). Suppose you save this in a file called fred. You then need to uudecode this file, viz; uudecode fred which will create a file called ksbin.tar.Z, a compressed tar file. To un-tar the archive do, zcat ksbin.tar.Z | tar -xvf - Obviously, these programs stretch the limits of mail-based distribution. IF POSSIBLE, use Gopher, FTP, or WWW instead.


The following files are available in the utexas collection:

stattab.readme
The README file from the stattab distribution. [4/April/1990] (5034 bytes)
stattab.uuen
STATTAB calculates the cumulative distribution funcions, inverses, and values of parameters for many common statistical distributions. It can also produce tables of any one calculated iten as a function of a specified list of values of another item. It is written in fortran. THIS IS A LARGE SET OF SOFTWARE. PLEASE BE SURE YOU WANT IT. See the stattab.readme file first.(submitted by B. Brown, bwb@mdaali.cancer.utexas.edu) Version 1.2 [4/April/1990] [31/May/94](286 kbytes)
dcdflib
Library for calculating double precision cumulative distribution functions and their inverses.
dcdflibc.uuen
(ANSI C version of DCDFLIB) [31/May/94] (140k)
dcdflibf.uuen
(F77 version of DCDFLIB) [31/May/94] (153k)
dcdflib-kr-c.uuen
(Old C version of DCDFLIB) [31/May/94] (140k)
ksbin1.uuen
Exact significance and power calculations for single group binomial trial, either one-or multi-stage. (14/Jan/1991) (24/May/91) [190054 bytes)
windows.uuen

busspa.uuen
Exact significance and power calculations for two group tests of equality of binomial parameter. The two groups may have unequal sizes. (24/May/91) [155024 bytes]
extsig.uuen
Exact significance levels and the usual chi-square statistic for a 2 X 2 table. (Stripped down easy to use version of busspa.) (24/May/91) [117824]
ksb1ci.uuen
Confidence intervals for single group binomial one- or multi-stage trial. (24/May/91) [74842 bytes]
accflf.tar.Z
Program to fit very general accelerated failure model with log-F error to possibly censored data. (NOTE: A compressed tar file). [2/Oct/95] (313k)
The tar files contain the following. README which gives a brief overview of the package, legalities (Utexas retains control of commercial distribution), a packing list including the output of sum and wc on each source file, a documentation file <name>.doc, and the source files. The source specific to the application is in files <name>i.f. I broke the Fortran source into small chunks (less than 6000 lines) suitable for editing with MicoEmacs on an MSDOS machine. No routine spans two .f files. The .f files could be catted together since the file is not a syntactic unit in Fortran (it is in C). Some machine specific routines are usually required; these are on files machspec.<machine> where machine is one of MAC, MSDOS, UNIX or VAX.
