toms322

toms322, a FORTRAN77 code which evaluates four standard cumulative density functions:

• the normal distribution (evaluated from -X to +X);
• the Student's T distribution (evaluated from -X to +X);
• the chi-square distribution (evaluated from 0 to X);
• the F distribution (evaluated from 0 to X);

The text of many ACM toms algorithms is available online through ACM: http://www.acm.org/pubs/calgo or NETLIB: http://www.netlib.org/toms/index.html.
