MOCAFICO - A Monte Carlo computer program for the critical values of Fisher’s test on the significance in harmonic analysis and of Cochran’s test on the homogeneity of variances. (English) Zbl 0616.62002

The Fortran 77 program MOCAFICO given in the appendix to this paper can be applied to generate critical values of Fisher’s test on the significance in harmonic analysis and of Cochran’s test on the homogeneity of variances. MOCAFICO uses a revised version of the IMSL routine GGCHS. The gain of MOCAFICO consists essentially in the possibility of generating values for parameters in ranges which are of importance to science and technology, but which are not or not sufficiently covered by statistical tables available up to now.
