Abstract
The computer program is concerned with the design of sampling protocols and the analysis of data for the estimation of solid waste quantity and composition. It will: (1) Construct and add to a quantity data file; (2) Construct and add to a composition data file; (3) Analyze set of raw solid waste quantity data and make estimates of means and totals; (4) Analyze a set of composition data and make estimates of component means and totals; (5) Determine the sample sizes necessary to determine waste composition. The modules in the program will trap data-entry errors and illogical data, and a full-screen editor is also provided so that errors so detected can be corrected by the user without leaving the program.
