Abstract
A program written in FORTRAN-77 which executes an analysis for periodi city of a time series data set is presented. Time series analysis now has applicability and use in a wide range of biomedical studies. The a nalytical method termed here a method of partition is derived from per iodogram analysis, but uses the principle of analysis of variance (ANO VA). It is effective when used on incomplete data sets. An example in which a data set is made progressively more incomplete by the random r emoval of values demonstrates this, and a listing of the program and a sample output in both an abbreviated and a full version are given.
