PROGRAM PACK

 

Any use of the programs in published material should contain a reference to its origin (Program Pack,  P.­ A. Otto, otto@usp.br, University of São Paulo, Brazil). As this is free material with unrestricted access, I cannot be held responsible for any problems arising from the use/misuse of it. Before using the programs, the user should read carefully their corresponding description and use on the provided pdf archives (LibertyBasic.pdf, QBasicQB64.pdf, R.pdf, etc). When running the programs, the user must enter the data requested by the computer carefully and correctly, since most programs do not contain standard protection procedures against common errors, included in commercial computer programs produced by professional software firms. When an error occurs, the programs (generally/hopefully) will simply stop running.

 

 

LIBERTY_BASIC PROGRAMS

 

Click here if you want to download the whole set of LIBERTY_BASIC programs, otherwise choose among the following subsets:

 

1 – DATA_FILES


A set of 57 data files to be used as examples by some mathematics, statistics or population genetics programs. LIBERTY_BASIC data files (DAT extension) must be transferred to the TEMP folder in the C (root) directory of the user’s computer. It is in this location that programs requiring recorded data will look for the files.

 

2 - LIBRARY_AUXILIARY_FILES 


A set of eight auxiliary and library files used in conjunction with executable programs compiled from Liberty Basic BAS source programs. All executable programs compiled from Liberty Basic will work only in the environment where the corresponding TKN files (with the same name as the EXE file) and all eight auxiliary/library files are located; that was exactly the reason for duplicating these files in all folders with EXE programs from the Liberty Basic language.

 

3 – MATHEMATICS


A set of 41 executable programs housed in 41 folders with a total of 581 bas, doc, txt, pdf, tkn and exe files, in addition to the set of eight auxiliary and library programs loaded in each of the folders to allow the programs to be executed from the folders themselves.

 

4 - POPULATION_GENETICS


A set of 150 executable programs housed in 150 folders with a total of 2215 bas, doc, txt, pdf, tkn and exe files, in addition to the set of eight auxiliary and library programs loaded in each of the folders to allow the programs to be executed from the folders themselves.

 

5 – STATISTICS

                                                                                                                                 

 A set of 96 executable programs housed in 96 folders with a total of 1262 bas, doc, txt, pdf, tkn and exe files, in addition to the set of auxiliary and library programs loaded in each of the folders to allow the programs to be executed from the folders themselves.

 

6 – LIBERTYBASIC.PDF


This is a pdf archive detailing all aforementioned LIBERTY_BASIC programs and their font listings and use, with results, printouts and graphs of sample programs.

Click here if you want to download the whole set of QBASIC_QB64 programs, otherwise choose among the following subsets:

 

1 - DATA_FILES


A set of 36 DAT files to be used as examples by some mathematics, statistics or population genetics programs. QBASIC_QB64 data files (DAT extension) must be transferred to the TEMP folder in the C (root) directory of the user’s computer. It is in this location that programs requiring recorded data will look for the files.

 

2 – GRAPHICS

4 – MISCELLANEOUS


A set of seven executable programs housed in seven folders with a total of 29 bas, exe, doc, and txt files, consisting in a small collection of miscellaneous programs with general applications (calendars, text manipulation, etc).

 

5 - POPULATION_GENETICS


A set of 39 stand alone executable programs housed in 39 folders with a total of 158 bas, exe, doc, and txt files.

R PROGRAMS

 

Click here if you want to download the whole set of R programs, otherwise choose among the following subsets:

 

1 – DATA_FILES 


A set of 26 csv R data files to be used as examples by some mathematics, statistics or population genetics programs. R data files must be transferred to the TEMP folder in the C (root) directory of the user’s computer. It is in this location that programs requiring recorded data will look for the files.

 

2 – MATHEMATICS


A set of 18 R programs/scripts housed in 18 folders with a total of 72 r, doc, pdf, and txt files.

 

3 – POPULATION_GENETICS

MATHEMATICA PROGRAMS

 

The Mathematica programs contained here were developed with the Mathematica package version 2.1. They run perfectly only on older versions of Windows (3.1 and 95), using the MathReader software (Wolfram Inc.), which allows the user to run them without modifying or editing them. Due to these restrictions, the listings corresponding to the programs in ma and mb files of the Mathematica v.2.1 package are also presented in doc format.

 

Click here if you want to download the whole set of MATHEMATICA  programs, otherwise choose among the following subsets:
