Statistical Applications
The calculator provides the following pre-programmed statistical features
accessible through the keystroke combination
‚Ù
(the
5
key):
Entering data
Applications numbered 1, 2, and 4 in the list above require that the data
be available as columns of the matrix
Σ
DAT.
One way this can be
accomplished is by entering the data in columns using the Matrix Writer,
„²
, and then using function STO
Σ
to store the matrix into
Σ
DAT.
For example, enter the following data using the Matrix Writer (see
Chapters 8 or 9 in this guide), and store the data into
Σ
DAT:
2.1
1.2
3.1
4.5
2.3
1.1
2.3
1.5
1.6
2.2
1.2
2.5.
The screen may look like this:
Notice the variable
@£DAT
listed in the soft menu keys.
A simpler way to enter statistical data is to launch a statistics application
(such as
Single-var
,
Frequencies
or
Summary stats
, see
first screenshot above) and press
#EDIT#
. This launches the Matrix Writer.
Enter the data as before. In this case, when you exit the Matrix Writer, the
data you have entered is automatically saved in
Σ
DAT.
