This paper describes a FORTRAN 77 program that computes both the different response success-error patterns and their summary statistics for learning and forgetting in fixed trial experiments in which a two-stage Markov model is used. The frequency counts of the different response success-error patterns are used to estimate the parameter of the two-stage Markov model for fixed trials.
