Developing Statistical Software in Fortran 95 PDF Print Email

 

The purpose of this project is to develop strategies for

  • programming efficient and accurate statistical routines in Fortran, and arranging them in modules that are easy to reuse, maintain and extend;
  • calling these routines from many applications, including Excel, SAS, SPSS, S-PLUS, R and MATLAB; and
  • connecting them to graphical user interfaces (GUIs) written in languages such as Visual Basic and C#.

Book Review:

    "This book should be read by all statisticians, engineers, and scientists who want to implement an algorithm as a computer program. The book is the best introduction to programming that I have ever read."

    Melvin J. Hinich of the University of Texas, Austin in his review of Developing Statistical Software in Fortran 95 that appeared in the November, 2006 issue of Technometrics.
