An interactive microcomputer program for the computation of most probable number
1984
Abstract An interactive computer program for the rapid computation of Most Probable Numbers (MPN) with 95% confidence intervals and goodness-of-fit, is presented. The program, written in ‘MICROSOFT BASIC’ employs an iterative algorithm based on a modification of the Newton-Raphson method and accomodates any number of replicates up to ten dilutions. It is applicable to most microcomputers with little or no modification. Since the computed MPN, confidence interval,a nd goodness-of-fit tests are displayed simultaneously, MPN tables are no longer required.
