Abstract :
A computer program is described for the preparation of decision tables (based upon observed statistics) for diagnosis. The procedure does not depend upon the assumption that symptoms occur independently. The program is intended for preliminary diagnosis or screening, therefore it should have value as a device of preventive medicine. This program is available from SHARE as HO BC CRIT.
