Statistics::Distributions Description

Statistics::Distributions is a Perl module for calculating critical values and upper probabilities of common statistical distos. Statistics::Distributions is a Perl module for calculating critical values and upper probabilities of common statistical distributions.SYNOPSIS use Statistics::Distributions; $chis=Statistics::Distributions::chisqrdistr (2,.05); print "Chi-squared-crit (2 degrees of freedom, 95th percentile " ."= 0.05 level) = $chisn"; $u=Statistics::Distributions::udistr (.05); print "u-crit (95th percentile = 0.05 level) = $un"; $t=Statistics::Distributions::tdistr (1,.005); print "t-crit (1 degree of freedom, 99.5th percentile = 0.005 level) " ."= $tn"; $f=Statistics::Distributions::fdistr (1,3,.01); print "F-crit (1 degree of freedom in numerator, 3 degrees of freedom " ."in denominator, 99th percentile = 0.01 level) = $fn"; $uprob=Statistics::Distributions::uprob (-0.85); print "upper probability of the u distribution (u = -0.85): Q(u) " ."= 1-G(u) = $uprobn"; $chisprob=Statistics::Distributions::chisqrprob (3,6.25); print "upper probability of the chi-square distribution (3 degrees " ."of freedom, chi-squared = 6.25): Q = 1-G = $chisprobn"; $tprob=Statistics::Distributions::tprob (3,6.251); print "upper probability of the t distribution (3 degrees of " ."freedom, t = 6.251): Q = 1-G = $tprobn"; $fprob=Statistics::Distributions::fprob (3,5,.625); print "upper probability of the F distribution (3 degrees of freedom " ."in numerator, 5 degrees of freedom in denominator, F = 6.25): " ."Q = 1-G = $fprobn";This Perl module calculates percentage points (5 significant digits) of the u (standard normal) distribution, the student's t distribution, the chi-square distribution and the F distribution. It can also calculate the upper probability (5 significant digits) of the u (standard normal), the chi-square, the t and the F distribution. These critical values are needed to perform statistical tests, like the u test, the t test, the F test and the chi-squared test, and to calculate confidence intervals.If you are interested in more precise algorithms you could look at: StatLib: http://lib.stat.cmu.edu/apstat/ ; Applied Statistics Algorithms by Griffiths, P. and Hill, I.D., Ellis Horwood: Chichester (1985) Requirements: · Perl
