title: [An algol program for the computation of empiric regressions].
abstract: An explanation is given about the meaning of empirical regression and on the domain of application of this biomathematical-statistical procedure. It may be helpful in data handling after the measurements and in a first stage of data processing especially if there is a large amount of datas. An empirical regression can provide the basis for a functional relationship analysis by giving hints for the choice of empirical mathematical functions. This will be useful and necessary in such cases where the measured values have a greater dispersion and one wants to get an analytical expression for the course of measured points. In the appendix a program listing of the ALGOL-program for empirical regression is presented. Detailed remarks are made in the text concerning the program structure, the data input and output resp. the program control parameters to enable the biological or medical user to adapt the program to their special problems without the help by a mathematician, and neither with deeper knowledge of mathematics nor with detailed insight to computer technical aspects of data processing.
