This program computes the three-way interaction information in bits using Krippendorff’s (2009, at p. 200) algorithm for the decomposition I(ABC→AB: AC:BC). The user is prompted for the eight (= 2^3) frequency values (which can also be considered as values at the eight corners of a cube). Only positive values are accepted because the program transforms these values into a probability distribution. Output is a file wmax.dbf in which the iterations are stored on the hard disk in the same folder as the one in which the program is run. The file can be read using programs such as excel or spss. The program runs in a DOS environment. Furthermore, the program brings to screen the value of I(ABC→ AB:AC:BC) in bits of information. References: Klaus Krippendorff (2009).
