Hello.Not sure what was the problem, but here's how I fixed it, just in case someone else has this problem:- installed java 32- reinstalled previous Stats101 version (1.4.8). That seems to have cleaned something somwhere.- un-installed Stats101 via Ctrl Panel- un-installed all java 32/64- rebooted- installed java 64- installed new Stats101 ...

Hello John.I'm having problems installing the latest 1.4.9. I am running windows 7 (64), brand new install. I've tried with both java 32 and 64b. In both cases, the installer proceeds fine until after I select the target directory, then it stalls (no crash, no error, but nothing happens and no buttons are functional except the cancel button).I use ...

Thanks John.Will test today. I'm fairly confident this is the issue:- on the other PC, I was using Notepad++, a programing editor.- on the new PC, I was using regular windows notepad until last night. I tried Notepad++ on the new PC last night, to make sure I was seeing the real characters...and discovered very nice features in Notepad++:1) file ...

John,I'm really puzzled with this one. I installed Stats101 on a different PC, using different folder paths by mistake. Quite obviously, my old programs failed to find the correct paths / files. After fixing the paths in the code, the programs are working fine, except for one case: the OUTPUT FILE command produces 0A (hexa) for the \n character, ...

John,I respect your view point. If anyone else bumps onto this problem, here's how I am handling it.PS: forcing to zero actually works quite well in my application: the first iteration starts at Skewness=0 (with a warning message) and then it wanders up and down as per the simulation, as desired.RgdsGusNEWCMD MYSKEWNESS Input Skewness @statistics ...

John,Point taken. I believe there is only 2 cases where this can happen:- Nul input vector. Hopefully I won't be doing stats on that.- Constant input vector, which in electronics would be called a Dirac pulse: StdDev = 0, but Mean is defined. If I remember correctly, the main property of a Dirac is that it's surface is unity (or a multiple), rather

Thank you, looking forward to it.Gus

Hello John,New issue: the SKEWNESS command fails if the data array has a StdDev = 0 (eg a constant array), because the formula then divides by zero.The formula in the reference source would also fail - it's not a Stats101 coding error; it's an incomplete algorithm. The formulas on Wikipedia are slightly different...but as far as I can tell they ...

Hello John,It's been a few days I haven't harassed you (!), so here's a new one:REMOVE command is very unhappy when the position vector is empty. This is odd because the TAKE command works fine in the same conditions. Try the code below using:- List =0,10 (no problem)- List = 1,10 (crash on REMOVE)PS: it would be worth mentioning in the help that ...

John,I don't know what to say. I hope I'm making another beginner's mistake - but I can't find it. I've used the debugger extensively this time, and no matter which way I try, I always end up with the same conclusion. I have been observing my samples ''jumping from one bin to another'' when I plot the histograms on a graph (straight lines become ...
