PDIDENT is a collection of interactive computer programs which have been developed as aids for qualitative phase analysis of x‐ray powder diffraction data. These FORTRAN IV programs are implemented on a DEC committee on Powder Diffraction Standards (JCPDS) data base is accessed by the programs along with user‐created data. The data base (sets 1–32) along with all cross‐index files requires 9 Mbytes of storage. The packing of the data base, use of cross‐index files and the algorithms and utility of the PDIDENT programs are described.
