I agree with Bob. My mentors required their students to perform four-way ANOVAs with repeated measures by hand. Our office area was frequently visited by students from other areas that would bring computer printouts from their disseration research for interpretation. I always thought that the person who collected the data would be in the best position to interpret it!
Of course, there are limits. I still can't invert a matrix by hand, even though the concept is clear to me. "Dr. Bob Wildblood" wrote: > I'm very old-fashioned about this.
