+
+The one sample Kolmogorov-Smirnov subcommand is used to test whether or not a dataset is
+drawn from a particular distribution. Four distributions are supported, @i{viz:}
+Normal, Uniform, Poisson and Exponential.
+
+Ideally you should provide the parameters of the distribution against which you wish to test
+the data. For example, with the normal distribution the mean (@var{mu})and standard deviation (@var{sigma})
+should be given; with the uniform distribution, the minimum (@var{min})and maximum (@var{max}) value should
+be provided.
+However, if the parameters are omitted they will be imputed from the data. Imputing the
+parameters reduces the power of the test so should be avoided if possible.
+
+In the following example, two variables @var{score} and @var{age} are tested to see if
+they follow a normal distribution with a mean of 3.5 and a standard deviation of 2.0.
+@example
+ NPAR TESTS
+ /KOLMOGOROV-SMIRNOV (normal 3.5 2.0) = @var{score} @var{age}.
+@end example
+If the variables need to be tested against different distributions, then a separate
+subcommand must be used. For example the following syntax tests @var{score} against
+a normal distribution with mean of 3.5 and standard deviation of 2.0 whilst @var{age}
+is tested against a normal distribution of mean 40 and standard deviation 1.5.
+@example
+ NPAR TESTS
+ /KOLMOGOROV-SMIRNOV (normal 3.5 2.0) = @var{score}
+ /KOLMOGOROV-SMIRNOV (normal 40 1.5) = @var{age}.
+@end example

+The abbreviated subcommand K-S may be used in place of KOLMOGOROV-SMIRNOV.

+The median test is used to test whether independent samples come from
+populations with a common median.
+The median of the populations against which the samples are to be tested
+may be given in parentheses immediately after the

+union of all the samples.
+
+The variables of the samples to be tested should immediately follow the @samp{=} sign. The
+keyword @code{BY} must come next, and then the grouping variable. Two values
+in parentheses should follow. If the first value is greater than the second,
+then a 2 sample test is performed using these two values to determine the groups.
+If however, the first variable is less than the second, then a @i{k} sample test is
+conducted and the group values used are all values encountered which lie in the
