[About the body length frequency of 19.5 year old men after the graph of Harbeck (1960) (author's transl)].
Based on the Harbeck-graph of body length frequency for 19.5 years old men (1960), 2 methods are exercised for determining the Gaussian distribution function. At first the area arising from the frequency of length classes with the abscissa of its gravity center and the dispersion or variance are egalized to the respective values for the Gaussian curve. After that nonlinear regressions following the Paul-method (1975) are carried out minimizing the sums of the squares, absolute values and square roots of the deviations. The results of the conventional method could be improved numerically but were not discernible in graphs. Finally the subdivision into growth groups is taken into consideration.
