Statistical programs by Wilrich & Wilrich

With this website, we provide some statistical programs for the evaluation of specific test methods / procedures.
These programs are provided freely in the hope that they are useful, but without any warranty.

The programs are made available as online calculators (access via the top-menu or the following table) and as Excel-files (download via the table).
General information for the use of the calculators is available via the bottom menu, see General i . Specific information on the calculators, e.g. on the design of the experiment, the equations used, revisions etc., is available via the bottom menu as soon as you navigate to one of the online calculators.
