APL Histogram, Density Estimation and Probability Plotting Routines.

Abstract

This paper introduces several data analysis routines that were designed for interactive use with APL (A Programming Language) and placed in the APL user library at the Naval Postgraduate School. Specifically, histograms, density estimation and probability plotting routines are both explained in detail and demonstrated with actual data. In addition, applications and limitations on each of the routines are explored. And, the combined routines give the general user an extensive tool to analyze either discrete or continuous data.
