+.SH NAME
+pchisq
+.SH DESCRIPTION
+function pchisq.f
+
+source
+ Bevington, pages 192-193.
+
+purpose
+ evaluate probability for exceeding chi square
+
+usage
+ result = pchisq (chisqr, nfree)
+
+description of parameters
+ chisqr - comparison value of reduced chi square
+ nfree - number of degrees of freedom
+
+subroutines and function subprograms required
+ gamma (x)
+ calculates gamma function for integers and 1/2-integers
+
+comments
+ calculation is approximate for nfree odd and
+ chi square greater than 50
