Entering Statistical Data

You typically enter your data into columns in the Numeric

view. Each column represents a variable named Cl through

C9 and CO. After entering the data, you must define the data

set in the Symbolic view. Data sets are named HI through H5

for one-variable statistics, or SI through S5 for two-variable

statistics.

N o t e

A data column must have at least four data points to

provide valid two-variable statistics, or two data points for

one-variable statistics.

You can also store statistical data values by copying lists from

Home into Statistics data columns. For example, |

home

| LI

{{STO^j} Cl

stores the list LI into the data-column variable

Cl.
