Copyright (C) 1995 by John H. Wolfe. All rights reserved.
PC-NORMIX is distributed with the following files:
C:\NORMIX21: The directory where you should store all these files.
DOCUMENTATION:
readme This file.
normix.doc Documentation for the user.
license.txt The license agreement and form for you to register your use.
SOURCE:
pcnormix.for The FORTRAN source program.
EXECUTABLE CODE:
pcnormix.exe Version 2.1 for 386 or above.
DOSXMSF.EXE This is the DOS extender. PLEASE COPY IT INTO A DIRECTORY
THAT IS IN YOUR PATH. It must be in your path.
DOSXNT.386 Required for Windows operation. In C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM.INI
in the [386ENH] section, please add the statement:
DEVICE=C:\NORMIX21\DOSXNT.386. (This assumes that you
are naming this NORMIX directory C:\NORMIX21.)
INPUT-FORM TEMPLATE:
form.inp This file should only be copied, never written on.
thisjob A default input-form filled in with the Fisher Iris problem.
SAMPLE PROBLEM INPUT-FORMS (stored in the \SAMPLES subdirectory):
artif.inp Artificial clusters with unequal covariance matrices. This
file also contains the data for the problem.
irismap.inp The Fisher Iris problem with equal covariance matrices.
irismix.inp The Fisher Iris problem with unequal covariance matrices and
initial estimates supplied by the user.
svib.inp The Strong Vocational Interest Blank problem described in
Wolfe (1978). Multivariate Behavioral Research, 13, 33-44.
thisjob The same as irismap.inp. This file name is the default when
the user does not specify an input-form file at the keyboard.
SAMPLE PROBLEM INPUT DATA (stored in the \SAMPLES subdirectory):
iris.dat The data for the Fisher Iris problem, specified by irismap.inp,
irismix.inp, and thisjob sample input-forms.
svib.dat The input data specified by svib.inp.
SAMPLE PROBLEM ANSWERS (stored in the \ANSWERS subdirectory):
These are the answers to the sample problems, generated by my computer.
BATCH FILES:
normix.bat A batch program that bypasses interactive operation
of pcnormix.exe and redirects I/O to files specified on
the command line.
Usage: "normix samples\svib svib.see" would take the
input-form from samples\svib.inp and store the screen
output on the file svib.see. This second argument is
optional.
examples.bat An illustrative batch file that runs all of the sample
problems. The user should be able to write similar batch
files for running a large number of problems overnight
on in the backgound under Windows.
\YOURRUNS:
This directory is initially empty. After running EXAMPLES, the
directory will contain the results of sample problems run on your
machine. These can be compared with the results stored in \ANSWERS.
It is recommended that the user not only run the EXAMPLES batch file,
but also try running pcnormix.exe interactively with the sample
problems in order to become familiar with the program's operation.
________________________________________________________________________________
Running under Windows:
PC-NORMIX is basically a DOS program that uses extended memory.
I have successfully run it as a DOS window under Norton Desktop for
Windows 3.1. The file NORMIX.ICO is an icon for for the file WNORMIX.BAT.
If you can't get this to work, you could probably go the the Windows FILE
menu and click on RUN, then type in c:\normix21\wnormix your.inp.
