The Research Computation Center at the University of North Carolina has access to a UNIVAC 1105 general purpose digital computer for use in connection with data processing problems, theoretical studies, and computer research.

- Analysis of Variance (ANOVA)
- Multiple Regression and Correlation
Some of the concepts and ideas in these programs are new and may be of interest to other computation centers. Hence they are described below.
