Here you will find a couple of simple, though useful, tools for the statistical analysis. They are “JAVA applets”, which means that you can “use” them directly from your wb browser. You will not have to install anything in your computer. The only requirement is to have “JAVA” enabled in your web browser.
Here is a small applet that works with statistical tables. The application allow to find “almost” any value for “almost” any table.
The program has been kindly donated by Cytel Software (You can get a similar one for Windows if you visit their Web)
A small application that can do many of the analysis that we will see along the course (estimation, hypothesis testing, regression, etc)

A lot of interesting and useful things to learn
Statistics is collected in StatPages.net.
The section entitled “Books and Manuals” is specially
recommended.
Of special interest is the online manual at “Seeing Statistics”. It is very interactive but requires that your browser is “Java enabled”
