This is XLISP-STAT 3.52 Release 5 for generic bsd systems (with simple
tektronix graphics from the gnuplot system), or X11.

XLISP-STAT is a statistical environment based on a dialect of the Lisp
language called XLISP.  To facilitate statistical computations, standard Lisp
functions for addition, logarithms, etc., have been modified to operate on
lists and arrays of numbers, and a number of basic statistical functions have
been added.

Updates to this system will be posted periodically in the anonymous
ftp directory of umnstat.stat.umn.edu (128.101.51.1).

A tutorial introduction to the system is available. It is written
primarily for the Macintosh version, but the differences to the UNIX
version are minor; see below. The tutorial is available as a set of
LaTeX files in xlispstat.doc.tar.Z at the ftp address above.
