    AbstractMany observations encountered in biological and medical research are randomly distributed in bivariate scales, and thus not susceptible to simple regression analyses. Since such data are depicted by ellipses in scatter diagrams, a computer program to calculate the confidence regions for the means or the total data of bivariate samples was written in BASIC for correlational analyses. The program, based on the principal axes algorithm, plots the calculated confidence regions as an elliptic area, using the fitted equations for its major and minor axes. The program displays the sample parameters required to perform comparisons between different groups of experimental conditions.
