Descriptive Statistics

The procedures in DSTAT provide basic sample statistics of the variables in GAUSS data sets. These statistics describe the numerical characteristics of random variables, and provide information for further analysis.

Features

  • Handles large data sets
  • Accommodates both character and numeric variables
  • All statistics calculated are accessible for later use
  • Provides statistics for an entire data set or specified data range

Main Functions

  • Calculates the means of a set of variables
  • Calculates the extreme values of a set of variables
  • Computes the covariance matrix of a set of variables
  • Computes the correlation matrix of a set of variables
  • Creates contingency tables
  • Computes statistics and measure of fits for a contingency table
  • Computes frequency distributions for a set of variables
  • Tests the differences of means between two groups

Platform: Windows, LINUX and UNIX.
