	GENSTAT is a GENeral STATistics program which provides several
basic statistical analyses on data that is entered by the user via keyboard
or disk file. GENSTAT can manipulate up to 26 sets of data, and each set
can contain up to 90 numbers. 

	Note that GENSTAT is not intended to be a complete statistical
analysis package. Rather, it is intended to provide the basic (and probably
most-used) statistical procedures in a program that is easy to use. The 
program is menu-driven, and we have found that even people with little or
no computer "literacy" can use it on a day to day basis without problems.


Analyses provided by GENSTAT are:

-Summary statistics (mean, standard deviation, and standard error).

-Student's t-test (two-tailed; for comparing two sets of data for significant
 difference of the means).

-Analysis of Variance (for differences among two or more sets of data).

-Correlation analysis with linear regression.



	GENSTAT is a CP/M-80 program developed on a CompuPro 8-16 system 
running Concurrent CP/M 8-16 3.1D. Files supplied in the library are:

	GS.COM      GS-TBLS.DAT      GS-INST.COM      GS.DOC

	Of these, the first two (GS.COM and GS-TBLS.DAT) are required to
run the program. The file GS-INST.COM is a program that lets the user
customize GENSTAT by specifying terminal codes for: erasing the screen,
turning on hi-lighting (such as reverse video), and for resuming normal
video. As supplied, the hi-lighting/normal video codes are nulls, and the 
screen erase code is simply a bunch of line feeds, so the program will work
immediately with almost any terminal. GS-TBLS.DAT must be on the default disk
drive when the install program is run.

	All data and results generated when the program is run are written
to a disk file named GS.OUT. This is a standard ASCII text file which can be
edited and/or printed using any editor or print utility you have.
