00010 THESE ARE INSTRUCTIONS FOR USING THE PROGRAM PROVAR***
00011
00012 PROVAR*** PERFORMS SEVERAL TYPES OF CALCULATIONS FOR
00013 NORMAL AND STUDENT'S-T DISTRIBUTIONS. GIVEN ONE- OR
00014 TWO-TAILED PROBABILITIES, IT WILL PRODUCE THE CORRES-
00015 PONDING LIMITS; GIVEN A VARIATE OR A SET OF LIMITS, IT
00016 WILL PRODUCE THE CORRESPONDING PROBABILITIES. DATA IS
00017 ENTERED AS FOLLOWS:
00018
00019 100 DATA DF, MEAN, SIGMA, (BLOCK1), (BLOCK2),.....
00020
00021 WHERE DF IS DEGREES OF FREEDOM (SETTING DF=ZERO SIGNALS
00022 NORMAL DISTRIBUTION), MEAN AND SIGMA ARE THE MEAN AND
00023 STANDARD DEVIATION OF THE DISTRIBUTION, AND THE DATA
00024 BLOCKS MAY BE ANY MIXTURE OF THE FOUR TYPES SHOWN BELOW:
00025
00026 BLOCK(INPUT) OUTPUT PRODUCED
00027
00028 1,V PROB OF X EXCEEDING THE VALUE V
00029 2,L,U PROB OF X INSIDE LIMITS L AND U
00030 3,P VALUE WHICH IS EXCEEDED WITH PROB P
00031 4,P LIMITS CONTAINING X WITH PROB P
00032
00033 FOR EXAMPLE, THE LINE OF DATA SHOWN BELOW WOULD PRODUCE
00034 AS OUTPUT THE PROBABILITY OF A NORMALLY DISTRIBUTED
00035 VARIABLE WITH MEAN 100 AND STANDARD DEVIATION 10 BEING
00036 IN THE RANGE 95-105, AND ALSO THE VALUE OF THE VARIABLE
00037 THAT WILL BE EXCEEDED ONLY 2.5 PERCENT OF THE TIME:
00038
00039 100 DATA 0,100,10,2,95,105,3,0.025
00040
00041 NOTE THAT DATA FOR ADDITIONAL CASES MAY BE CONTINUED
00042 ON LINES 101-199 AS NEEDED.
