(HP-67) Epidemiologic Analysis with a Programmable Calculator

[SlideRule]

An extract from the PREFACE of Epidemiologic Analysis with a Programmable Calculator, U.S. DEPARTMENT OF HEALTH, EDUCATION and WELFARE, Public Health Service, NIH Publication No. 79-1649, June 1979.
…
Our purpose in writing this book is to present a collection of pocket calculator programs developed to handle the range of analyses that most epidemiologists face routinely. The programs are accompanied by step-by-step descriptions of their use and examples taken from epidemiologic studies …
Today programmable pocket calculators are available which are essentially low-priced computers that can be programmed to handle nearly all calculations routinely encountered in epidemiologic analysis …
The epidemiologic programs developed and presented here are for a particular calculator, the Hewlett-Packard 67 (HP67)…

ps: pages 65 - 72 are omitted in the HathiTrust archive (reason unknown): this includes part of program 4, all of program 5 & part of program 6: however, my post to the 41 library has a link for the new edition which includes the missing pages as well a listings in FOCAL.
