Verify distribution uniformity/Chi-squared test
You are encouraged to solve this task according to the task description, using any language you may know.
- Task
Write a function to determine whether a given set of frequency counts could plausibly have come from a uniform distribution by using the test with a significance level of 5%.
The function should return a boolean that is true if and only if the distribution is one that a uniform distribution (with appropriate number of degrees of freedom) may be expected to produce.
Note: normally a two-tailed test would be used for this kind of problem.

Ada
First, we specify a simple package to compute the Chi-Square Distance from the uniform distribution:
package Chi_Square is
type Flt is digits 18;
type Bins_Type is array(Positive range <>) of Natural;
function Distance(Bins: Bins_Type) return Flt;
end Chi_Square;
Next, we implement that package:
package body Chi_Square is
function Distance(Bins: Bins_Type) return Flt is
Bad_Bins: Natural := 0;
Sum: Natural := 0;
Expected: Flt;
Result: Flt;
begin
for I in Bins'Range loop
if Bins(I) < 5 then
Bad_Bins := Bad_Bins + 1;
end if;
Sum := Sum + Bins(I);
end loop;
if 5*Bad_Bins > Bins'Length then
raise Program_Error with "too many (almost) empty bins";
end if;
Expected := Flt(Sum) / Flt(Bins'Length);
Result := 0.0;
for I in Bins'Range loop
Result := Result + ((Flt(Bins(I)) - Expected)**2) / Expected;
end loop;
return Result;
end Distance;
end Chi_Square;
Finally, we actually implement the Chi-square test. We do not actually compute the Chi-square probability; rather we hardcode a table of values for 5% significance level, which has been picked from Wikipedia [1]:
with Ada.Text_IO, Ada.Command_Line, Chi_Square; use Ada.Text_IO;
procedure Test_Chi_Square is
package Ch2 renames Chi_Square; use Ch2;
package FIO is new Float_IO(Flt);
B: Bins_Type(1 .. Ada.Command_Line.Argument_Count);
Bound_For_5_Per_Cent: constant array(Positive range <>) of Flt :=
( 1 => 3.84, 2 => 5.99, 3 => 7.82, 4 => 9.49, 5 => 11.07,
6 => 12.59, 7 => 14.07, 8 => 15.51, 9 => 16.92, 10 => 18.31);
-- picked from http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chi-squared_distribution
Dist: Flt;
begin
for I in B'Range loop
B(I) := Natural'Value(Ada.Command_Line.Argument(I));
end loop;
Dist := Distance(B);
Put("Degrees of Freedom:" & Integer'Image(B'Length-1) & ", Distance: ");
FIO.Put(Dist, Fore => 6, Aft => 2, Exp => 0);
if Dist <= Bound_For_5_Per_Cent(B'Length-1) then
Put_Line("; (apparently uniform)");
else
Put_Line("; (deviates significantly from uniform)");
end if;
end;
- Output:

jq
Also works with gojq, the Go implementation of jq.
This entry uses a two-tailed test, as is appropriate for this type of problem as illustrated by the last example. The test is based on the assumption that the sample size is large enough for the χ2 distribution to be used.
The implementation of `Chi2_cdf` here uses the recursion relation for the gamma function and should be both fast, accurate and quite robust. For an industrial-strength algorithm, see e.g. https://people.sc.fsu.edu/~jburkardt/c_src/asa239/asa239.c

PARI/GP
The solution is very easy in GP since PARI includes a good incomplete gamma implementation; the sum function is also useful for clarity. Most of the code is just for displaying results.
The sample data for the test was taken from Go.

For the incomplete gamma function we use a series expansion related to Kummer's confluent hypergeometric function (see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Incomplete_gamma_function#Evaluation_formulae). The gamma function is calculated in closed form, as we only need its value at integers and half integers.

REXX
Programming notes:
The use of the pow was elided as it can just be replaced with t**(a-1).
The gamma was replaced with a simple version. The argument
for gamma is (in the cases used herein) always
positive, and is
either an integer, or a number which is a multiple of 1/2, both of these cases can be calculated with
a straight─forward calculation.
