StatsDirect

StatsDirect is a statistics tool for handling data in the world of academia, public sector, and corporations. The package also features special pricing for individuals, students and developing world.

Third party tutorials such as learning with StatsDirect are available. It is ideal for data importation and exportation in Workbooks (similar to Excel spreadsheet) and its maximum worksheet capacity is 64K columns by 1M rows.

It can also read and write Microsoft Excel files (2013/2010/2007 or 97-2003) and also import any common spreadsheet data. Moreover, the program can import text based data (formatted or plain) and read/write reports in portable rich text format (RTF) or HTML

StatsDirect can also handle Univariate descriptive statistics (count, mean, standard deviation, standard error, confidence interval, skewness, kurtosis, median, quartiles, range and a user defined quantile).

When it comes to data preparation, it is able to handle on-line algebraic calculator, apply user-defined functions/formulae to data in worksheet and many arithmetic, trigonometric, algebraic and logical functions, sort in worksheet (like Excel) or as separate function, rotate/transpose blocks of data in worksheet and rank and normal scores (van der Waerden, Blom and expected normal order).

Moreover, StatsDirect can combine or split data by group identifier or separate columns, and transformation (many, including ladder of powers).In matters to do with standardization, the software can do anthropometric standardization (child growth charts),all pairwise differences, means and slopes, dummy/design/indicator variable generation, convert text to numbers, and generate random numbers (uniform, normal, chi-square, F, t, binomial, Poisson, gamma, exponential).

In randomization, StatsDirect can generate random numbers from distributions (uniform, normal, binomial, Poisson, beta, F, t, chi-square, gamma, lognormal, Cauchy, Weibull, exponential, logistic, negative binomial) for simulation.
