> ESDISK.ZIP      EASISTAT general statistics package 
> EPDISK.ZIP      graphing program, pop-up calculator and editor

> Brief descriptions for announcements:
> 
> ESDISK contains EASISTAT, a full-featured Shareware statistics program
> featuring a variety of parametric and nonparametric tests, including
> Student's t, chi-squared, Pearson's and Kendall's correlation
> coefficient, Kolmogorov Smirnov, Wilcoxon's signed rank and rank sum,
> one way analysis of variance, multiple linear regression and principle
> components analysis. Complex arithmetic and logical expressions may be
> evaluated and used to select groups of subjects. A generalised function
> minimisation/curve-fitting routine is also provided. 
> 
> EPDISK contains the graphing program which allows data from EASISTAT to
> be displayed as scatter plots, histograms or line graphs. Several
> statistical tests can be represented visually. Standard ASCII files are
> used so data from other sources may also be graphed. A memory-resident
> pop-up calculator is also provided which can read input from a document
> being edited and insert the result into the document. A simple text
> editor is also supplied.
> 
> PEDRAW is a pedigree-drawing program mainly of interest to scientists
> who wish to display biological relationships and the distribution of a
> disease within a pedigree. It is particularly suitable for researchers
> performing genetic linkage analysis. This program was reported in the
> article: " A program to draw pedigrees using LINKAGE or LINKSYS data
> files" D. Curtis. Ann. Hum. Genet. (1990) 54, 365-7.
> 
> PEDHELP comprises the documentation for PEDRAW in a special format which
> allows it to be displayed as pop-up hypertext.

Thanks Dave,
   Your programs are now available from garbo.uwasa.fi archives. 
Like some uploads they will first temporarily be in the /pc/stash
directory until they have been assigned to their proper directory,
which will be given in /pc/INDEX in due time.
