BMDP

<p>BMDP was a statistical package developed in 1965 by <a href="/facts/Wilfrid_Dixon/JVhl9YWc">Wilfrid Dixon</a> at the <a href="/facts/University_of_California%2c_Los_Angeles/KwPz7AK1">University of California, Los Angeles</a>.  The acronym stands for Bio-Medical Data Package, the word package was added by Dixon as the software consisted of a series of programs (subroutines) which performed different parametric and nonparametric statistical analyses.
</p><p>BMDP was originally distributed for free. It was later sold by <a href="/facts/Statsols/XqPv6s4r">Statsols</a>, who originally was a subsidiary of BMDP, but through a management buy-out formed the now independent company Statistical Solutions Ltd, known as Statsols. BMDP is no longer available as of 2017<a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=BMDP&action=edit">[update]</a>. The company decided to only offer its other statistical product <a href="/facts/NQuery_Sample_Size_Software/CJ4os8yJ">nQuery Sample Size Software</a>.
