Hi Humberto,
You have given an excellent simplified account of the usefulness of
robust regression and followed it by whole hearted support for Excel uses
in Statistics. It looks like you belong to a delta (in mathematical sense)
group. Anyway, what do you think about the credibility of Excel
David,
I hope, once finished, you will post a detail account of your findings on
EXCEL2000 and Statistics (and suggest better way to use it for statistical
analysis), which will definitely benefit many. Thanks. Siddeek

Happy new year to all.
I frequently use Excel2000 for graphic presentation, spreadsheet maths,
simple nonlinear model fitting (using the Excel solver) with one or two
parameters, and simulations. I thought Excel2000 corrected those errors
found in the analysis tool pack and other in-built comput
Hi Alex,
Can you provide the definition of probability under each way? In other words,
can you explain a little more on each way of defining probability? As it is,
some of them are clear (e.g., Frequentist theory) and others are not clear to
me. Thanks. Siddeek

right way. This is because EXCEL is more popular and easy
to use. Cheers. Siddeek

Wolfgang,
Even if we use a binomial prob. value of 0.5 (under null hypothesis), we will
get 3.5% error at 95% CI. Maybe, they are rounding up to 4%!

There is no point estimate here. Both are interval estimates and the

For discrete random variable, sum of the heights (probability) over
the sample space equals one. Cheers. Siddeek
