A DIGITAL COMPUTER PROGRAM FOR APPLYING THE KOLMOGOROV-SMIRNOV TESTS OF SIMILARITY TO TWO SAMPLE POPULATIONS

摘要

A Fortran IV digital computer program has been prepared for estimating the similarity between two parent population distribution functions, using the Kolmogorov-Smirnov test which is based on the maximum difference between two sample cumulative distributions. The similar¬ity of the functions is determined by a percentage level of significance.
