title: A minicomputer program for rapid graphical and statistical analysis of laboratory data.
abstract: The utility of a FORTRAN program package, which enables the scientific investigator to make a rapid assessment of laboratory data is described. Data are submitted from the keyboard or specified disk files in the form of coordinate pairs. The program includes routines for plotting values as a series of X-Y pairs on the computer video monitor or for comparing the X and Y arrays via paired differences and Student's t-test. A least squares linear regression of plotted data may also be called. Data modification, curve fitting, and I/O are easily handled in either single pair or column format. Examples of both statistical and graphical data analysis are presented.
