In the past 20 years the theory of robust estimation has become an important topic of mathematical statistics. We discuss here some basic concepts of this theory with the help of simple examples. Furthermore we describe a subroutine library for the application of robust statistical procedures, which was developed with the support of the Swiss National Science Foundation.
