(d) Programs and Computers

All programs used for analyses were written in Pascal (Jensen and Wirth, 1978; Schneider et al., 1982, 1984). The major programs used were:


Name  $\;$
Version Purpose 

CalHnb 2.15 $\textstyle \parbox{4in}{calculate statistics of $H_{nb}$ : $E(H_{nb})$ , $AE(H_{nb})$\space and$Var(H_{nb})$\space (generates Fig. 12).}$

Rseq 4.46 $\textstyle \parbox{4in}{information content of sequences, $R_{sequence}$\space ascalculated in this paper (with correction for sampling error).}$

RsGra 2.45 $\textstyle \parbox{4in}{a non-standard FORTRAN program using device independentgraphics (Warner, 1979) for drawing the figures on microfilm.}$

Most work was performed on a CDC Cyber 170/720 computer. Figures were generated on a CDC 280/284 microfilm recorder.
