- R
- R is a system for statistical computation and graphics. It consists
of a language plus a run-time environment with graphics, a debugger,
access to certain system functions, and the ability to run programs
stored in script files. R implements a language which is not
entirely unlike the S language developed at AT&T Bell Laboratories
by Rick Becker, John Chambers and Allan Wilks.
- Rweb
- A Web interface to R.
- Statlets
- This
collection of of Java applets comes from NWP Associates, Inc.
Datasets up to 100 rows, 10 columns can be analyzed for free;
anything larger requires a subscription.
- Statistcope
- Statiscope presents summarizing data and descriptive statistical
charts. In the applet you can enter data manually or download data
over the Internet. Charts included: Distribution, Probability mass,
Density, Box plot, Stemplot. Other features such as hypothesis
testing and calculation of confidence intervals are also included.
The user interface is responsive and friendly, e.g. Statiscope
introduces a new funny way of changing the scale. It is intended
both for people learning the concepts of statistics and for
practical use by researchers of various kinds. A good thing is that
it lets people share data and do independent investigations. It is
designed to look like an oscilloscope but is concerned with
statistics, therefore the name of Statiscope. Statiscope is also
available as a standalone application that has Open and Save menu
options. This application runs on most common platforms.
- ViSta
- ViSta features visual tools for revealing structure in data; for
showing the results of statistical analyses; for guiding the analyst
through an analysis; and for structuring the analyst's data analysis
process. ViSta is designed for a wide range of users, particularly
for those learning statistics and for their teachers.
- WebStat
- WebStat is a statistical software package written in the form of a
Java applet which provides routines for statistical analysis via the
World Wide Web.
