'INSTRUCTIONS'
'-------------------------'
'Enter values in the upper left window, one value per line. '
'Press Calculate to see the statistics. The sorted values are '
'shown in the right window.'
''
'BISQUARE'
'-------------------------'
'The Bisquare is a robust measure of central tendency. Its '
'value will generally be between the mean and median.'
''
'By robust, we mean that extreme values are weighted less, '
'thus having a smaller influence on the statistic. See Data'
'Analysis and Regression by Mosteller and Tukey (Addison '
'and Wesley).'
''
'Use the parameter C to tune the statistic. A value of 3 causes'
'the Bisquare to more closely follow the mean, while a value '
'of 9 causes it be close to the median.'
''
'Because the Bisquare is an iterative algorithm, it will take a '
'bit longer to calculate.'
''
'NOTES'
'-------------------------'
'1) Make sure all values are valid numbers, one per line.'
'2) Use the File button to read an ASCII file, one number per '
'line.'
'3) The Geometric and Harmonic means use values only > 0.'
'4) The maximum number of values is 8,000.')
