Analysis of Rainfall at Cherrapunjee

I had collected daily rainfall data of Cherrapunjee from 1978. I was interested in finding out the number of days it had rained in different ranges of rainfall. I had a developed a program to find it out in dbase IV.  I had noted the results what I had got as reported hereunder. I could not do the same for the subsequent years after my hard disk collapsed.  I shall try to update this when I can do the analysis again after I can get the data on the computer again and develop again a program for that.  Wonder whether I can still remember the programming. If you find it in anyway interesting please look up the chart below.
