Statistical Software
NIST users may access a
list of
statistical software programs available at NIST for
performing statistical analyses.
The following is a list of SED developed software programs.
These are freely downloadable for both NIST and non-NIST
users.
- Dataplot - a
graphical data analysis program.
- Recipe - a
Fortran program for computing regression based tolerance
limits.
- Extreme Winds -
the extreme winds web site contains several custom
Fortran programs and several MATLAB programs for
analyzing extreme winds and the effect of winds on
building structures.
The following software is available for download. However,
it is not supported and is provided on an "as is" basis.
There may not be any documentation available (other than
that provided in the source code) for this software.
- Omnitab - the ancestor
to MINITAB. Note that although we will provide this
software on request, OMNITAB is no longer actively
developed or supported.
- STSPAC -
Fortran subroutines written by former SED staff
member Charlie Reeve. In particular, these subroutines
include functions for computing the cumulative
distribution function and generating random numbers for
the doubly non-central F and doubly non-central t
distributions.
- DATAPAC -
Fortran subroutines written by
James Filliben.
Most of these subroutines are incorporated into the
Dataplot software listed above. DATAPAC has not been
actively developed for some time. Of primary interest
are some of the probability distribution functions.
The following web sites are available to NIST staff:
-
e-FITS - a web-based tool for generating graphs,
tables, and random numbers for 50+ univariate
distributions and for fitting data to these
distributions.
