…going back strongly to the early days of computers in the 1960s and a lot in the social sciences back to the 1940s and even about 1900. A lot is known. E.g., there's the now classic Draper and Smith, Applied Regression Analysis. Software IBM Scientific Subroutine Package (SSP), SPSS (Statistical Package for the Social Sciences), SAS (Statistical Analysis System), etc. does the arithmetic for texts such as Draper and Smith.…
