-------

Stixbox is a statistics toolbox which provides distribution functions, datasets,
statistical tests and plotting facilities. 

Features
--------

   * pks : Kolmogorov Smirnov distribution function 
 * Random Numbers
   * rexpweib : Random numbers from the exponential or weibull distributions 
 * Datasets
   * getdata : Famous datasets 
 * Graphics
   * histo : plot a histogram 
   * identify : Identify points on a plot by clicking with the mouse 
   * linreg : Linear or polynomial regression 
   * pairs : Pairwise scatter plots 
   * plotdens : Draw a nonparametric density estimate 
   * plotsym : Plot with symbols 
   * qqnorm : Normal probability paper 
   * qqplot : Plot empirical quantile vs empirical quantile 
   * stairs : Plots the Empirical Cumulated Distribution.
 * Logistic Regression
   * lodds : Log odds function 
   * loddsinv : inverse of log odd 
   * logitfit : Fit a logistic regression model 
 * Miscellaneous

   * betaln : Logarithm of beta function 
   * ciboot : Various bootstrap confidence intervals 
   * cov : Covariance matrix 
   * covboot : Bootstrap estimate of the variance of a parameter estimate

   * rboot : Simulate a bootstrap resample from a sample 
   * stdboot : Bootstrap estimate of the parameter standard deviation 
   * stdjack : Jackknife estimate of the standard deviation of a parameter
estimate 
 * Tests, confidence intervals and model estimation
   * ciquant : Nonparametric confidence interval for quantile 
   * cmpmod : Compare linear submodel versus larger one 
   * kstwo : Kolmogorov-Smirnov statistic from two samples

Comment from Michael BAUDIN -- January 31, 2013, 09:28:42 PM    
Here is the changelog of the v2.0:

    * Removed std function: use Scilab's stdev instead.
To update your code, please use the following rules.
If A is a row or column vector, then replace std(A) with stdev(A).
If A is a matrix, then replace std(A) with stdev(A,"r") :

-->A=[1,2,10;7,7.1,7.01]
 A  =
    1.    2.     10.   
    7.    7.1    7.01  
-->std(A)
 ans  =
    4.2426407    3.6062446    2.1142493  
-->stdev(A,"r")
 ans  =
    4.2426407    3.6062446    2.1142493  
    * Removed unnecessary requirement on Scilab 5.4.
    * Removed bincoef function: use specfun_nchoosek instead.
To update your code, please install the specfun module:

atomsInstall("specfun")

and replace 

k=bincoef(n,N) 

with 

k=specfun_nchoosek(N,n)

Notice that N and n are exchanged.
    * Updated the unit tests to use assert functions.
    * Removed the following functions:

Probability Distribution Functions: 
dbeta, dbinom, dchisq, df, dgamma, dhypg, dnorm, dt
Probability Cumulative Distribution Functions
pbeta, pbinom, pchisq, pf, pgamma, phypg, pnorm, pt
Inverse Cumulative Distribution Functions
qbeta, qbinom, qchisq, qf, qgamma, qhypg, qnorm, qt
Random Numbers
rbeta, rbinom, rchisq, rf, rgamma, rgeom, rhypg, rnorm, rpoiss, rt
Reject Methods
rjbinom, rjgamma, rjpoiss

      Users should use the distfun module for Scilab.
      To install it, type:

atomsInstall("distfun")

      This has been decided for the following reasons :
      * Stixbox's distribution have known bugs, but no 
        known maintainer to fix them.
      * distfun is compatible with Matlab.
      * distfun has more tests.
      * distfun has more help pages and examples.
      * distfun has more consistent functions.
      * distfun's distributions are vectorized (and fast).
    * The previous change automatically fixes the following bugs.
