Difference (from prior major revision) (minor diff, author diff)

Changed: 13c13
See http://www.itl.nist.gov/div898/handbook/eda/section3/eda35g.htm for a lovely explanation of the one-sided KS test and http://www.io.com/~ritter/JAVASCRP/NORMCHIK.HTM for Javascript code that implements both the one-sided and two-sided tests. As always, Numerical Recipes ISBN 0521431085 (amazon.com, search) is a prime resource for this sort of thing (see http://www.nr.com/nronline_switcher.html for a discussion.
Note that when the underlying independent variable is cyclic as with day of the year or day of the week, then Kuiper's test is more appropriate. Numerical Recipes is again a good source of information on this. Note: Kuiper is pronounced in Dutch the way an English persion would pronounce Cowper.
