Friedman and Quade tests are nonparametric two-way analyses of variance which may be used to compare several related samples. The Friedman test is a multisample extension of the sign test while the Quade test is an extension of the Wilcoxon signed-rank for paired samples to the case of several related samples. The Quade test may be more powerful for a small number of treatments while the Friedman test may be more powerful when the number of treatments is five or more. The present program is written in an elementary subset of BASIC and will perform the Friedman and Quade tests quickly on practically every computer programmable in BASIC. It may i.e. be used to analyze biomedical data where the response of experimental subjects to a stimulus is monitored at time intervals.
弗里德曼检验和奎德检验是非参数双向方差分析，可用于比较多个相关样本。弗里德曼检验是符号检验的多样本扩展，而奎德检验是配对样本的威尔科克森符号秩检验扩展到多个相关样本的情况。对于少量处理，奎德检验可能更有效，而当处理数为五个或更多时，弗里德曼检验可能更有效。本程序用BASIC的一个基本子集编写，几乎可以在每台能用BASIC编程的计算机上快速执行弗里德曼检验和奎德检验。例如，它可用于分析生物医学数据，其中实验对象对刺激的反应会按时间间隔进行监测。
