       Nice formating, simplification and bug repair by Matthias Trautner Kromann <mtk@id.cbs.dk>

       The latest version of this module is available from the Distribution Perl Archive Network (CPAN). Please

       .

       This final version 1.02 has been released after more than one year without a bug report on the previous
       version 0.07.  Nevertheless, if you find any bugs or oddities, please do inform the author.

       This Perl module calculates percentage points (5 significant digits) of the u (standard normal)
       distribution, the student's t distribution, the chi-square distribution and the F distribution. It can
       also calculate the upper probability (5 significant digits) of the u (standard normal), the chi-square,
       the t and the F distribution.  These critical values are needed to perform statistical tests, like the u
       test, the t test, the F test and the chi-squared test, and to calculate confidence intervals.
