Package: a System of Computer Routines for the Analysis of Correlational Data

IN this period of large capacity, high-speed computers, there can be found at almost every computer installation a program library containing an assortment of routines to analyze correlational data. However, few offer a program system composed of several, linked routines. And usually either the system is not transportable because some of its elements are written in machine or assembly code or the system consists of a complex group of control cards that prevent the novice from fully utilizing it. Moreover, modifying programs within the system or expanding the program selection requires a large investment of time, money, and energy. The present writers believed a system of correlational analysis programs could be developed that was (1) transportable from installation to installation, (2) made up of a relatively simple set of
