<H2>DESCRIPTION</H2>
<EM>v.normal</EM>
computes tests of normality on vector points.

<H2>NOTES</H2>

The tests that <EM>v.normal</EM> performs are indexed
below.  The tests that are performed are specified by
giving an index, ranges of indices, or multiple thereof.

<OL>
<LI> Sample skewness and kurtosis
<LI> Geary's a-statistic and an approximate normal transformation
<LI> Extreme normal deviates
<LI> D'Agostino's D-statistic 
<LI> Modified Kuiper V-statistic 
<LI> Modified Watson U^2-statistic 
<LI> Durbin's Exact Test (modified Kolmogorov)
<LI> Modified Anderson-Darling statistic 
<LI> Modified Cramer-Von Mises W^2-statistic 
<LI> Kolmogorov-Smirnov D-statistic (modified for normality testing)
<LI> Chi-Square test statistic (equal probability classes) and 
     the number of degrees of freedom
<LI> Shapiro-Wilk W Test
<LI> Weisberg-Binghams W'' (similar to Shapiro-Francia's W')
<LI> Royston's extension of W for large samples
<LI> Kotz Separate-Families Test for Lognormality vs. Normality
</OL>

<H2>EXAMPLE</H2>

<DL>
<DD><B>v.normal map=</B><EM>soils</EM> <B>tests=</B><EM>1-3,14</EM> <B>col=</B><EM>flt1</EM>
</DL>

computes the sample skewness and kurtosis, Geary's
a-statistic and an approximate normal transformation,
extreme normal deviates, and Royston's W for the
<EM>soils</EM> vector points.
