%
% The structure function is a measure of the variance of a given 
% variable as a function of distance.  The estimation of the 
% confidence intervals in such a case is given by (1).
% 
% 	k1 = (n-1) * S^2 / c1
%	k2 = (n-1) * S^2 / c2		(2)
% 
% where n   = sample size = m+1
%	m   = number of degrees of freedom
%	S^2 = variance of the sample
%	c1  and c2 are determined by the solution to the equations
%
%	F(c1) = (1-g) /2
%	F(c2) = (1+g) /2		(3)
%
% where g = confidence level (95%, 99% or the like)
%
% Solutions are obtained by function 'chitable' (ftp m-file).
