Hi Alpana,
Statistical packages enable researchers to perform analysis on any given data. The analysis is conducted in 2 ways. First, by calculating various estimators like mean. Second by drawing different types of graphs electronically like bar charts. Some of the functions of such packages are: summarize data (e.g., compute means and standard deviations), determine whether there are significant differences between groups (e.g., t-tests, analysis of variance), examine relationships among variables (e.g., correlation, multiple regression), and graph results (e.g., bar charts, line graphs). SPSS is one of the commonly used packages by social scientists and students. For more information on statistical packages, check out this wiki entry: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_statistical_packages --- Alpana Dubey <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Hi Ripakshi, > Please tell me more about the statistical > packages.
