This page contains links to files associated with the X-13ARIMA-SEATS seasonal adjustment program for Windows® PC computers, as well as files for Linux or Unix workstations.
There are two versions of the program differing only in the formatting of the output files. One saves some of the output files as HTML, and the other saves all of the output files as ASCII text files. All calculations should be the same in both versions.
This program can be run in a command window or through our Windows interface, Win X-13, which is available for downloading on this website.
The most recent release of this program is Version 1.1, Build 59.
This version of X-13ARIMA-SEATS has been tested on Windows 10 and may work on previous Windows versions.
Installation instructions are also available on this page.
X-13ARIMA-SEATS downloads contain a subdirectory (x13as) with the following contents:

Three pdf files comprise the program documentation: the full Reference Manual; a Quick Reference that provides a brief summary of the X-13ARIMA-SEATS input specifications; and, for the Windows version, a quick guide to running X-13ARIMA-SEATS with the Win X-13 interface. There are versions of these documents for the HTML output and ASCII text output versions of the program, though differences between the two versions are generally slight. The full Reference Manual covers both the Windows and Linux/Unix versions, while for the quick reference, there are different Windows and Linux/Unix versions. Finally, there are compressed archives containing the full and quick reference manuals for the Windows version (one archive for HTML output and one for ASCII text output), and another set containing the full (same) and quick reference manuals for the Linux/Unix version.
To install the Icon programs:
Note that the executable that is stored in the distribution file was compiled on a Linux system - it may not run on your machine. If this is the case, download the x13assrc.tar.gz file, uncompress the source code and compile it - you will need a Fortran compiler on your Unix/Linux system.
Also note that if you save the x13asall.tar.gz file to a windows machine and then move the downloaded file to a Linux machine, the x13asall.tar.gz file may not retain the .gz part of the file extension. However the file even without that extension will uncompress and extract the required files as per instructions.
Contains x13as, the X-13ARIMA-SEATS executable (compiled on a Linux workstation with x86_64 architecture running RedHat Enterprise Linux 7.9 using gfortran), and testairline.spc, a sample input specification file for the previous version of X-13ARIMA-SEATS.
