ABSTRACT
As the strategic planner bogs is mind with trying to predict the future performance of some available variable qualitatively, at the mercy of human limitations and time constraint.
The COMPUTERIZED FORECASTING TECHINIQUES comes not only to increase his speed of operation but to save him the trouble of determining which method to use and if so applied assures of reliability of such forecast.
The features of this package include
1. Ability to choose from the various quantitative forecasting techniques.
2. Ability to select the method by menus.
3. finally a help path, which includes documentation on the software loading the Pascal computer.
