A computer program has been developed to perform uncertainty analysis calculations based on user input of the data reduction equation, nominal values of the variables in the equation, and uncertainty estimates for each variable. The code is based on techniques consistent with those recommended in the 1993 ISO Guide to the Expression of Uncertainty in Measurement . Various options and features of the program allow it to be used in preliminary and detailed test design as well as in data analysis. © 1997 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.
