Review of the methods .

The program is planed to be improved by adding functionality with corresponding changes to the manual.
The elaboration of the program is still in progress, some features are hidden, as there are still examples of the time series, which are so badly distributed in time, that advanced functions do not converge to the best solutions. There are typically few of such intervals from many hundreds of normal, and we try to fix these outlying approximations. But they still occur with an increasing number of data...
