+This Perl module calulates percentage points (5 significant digits) of
+the u (standard normal) distribution, the student's t distribution, the
+chi-square distribution and the F distribution. It can also calculate
+the upper probability (5 significant digits) of the u (standard normal),
+the chi-square, the t and the F distribution. These critical values are
+needed to perform statistical tests, like the u test, the t test, the F
+test and the chi-squared test, and to calculate confidence intervals.
