New
Statistics Package
The new Statistics package contains a collection of functions and
interactive tools for mathematical statistics and data analysis.
It supports a wide range of common statistical tasks, such as quantitative
and graphical data analysis, symbolic manipulation of random variables,
simulation, and curve fitting.
Features include:
- Over 35 continuous and discrete
probability distributions, as well as tools for creating
new distributions.
- Tools for creating and manipulating
random variables as well as functions for computing
their densities, moments, generating functions, and
other quantities.
- A wide range of functions for computing
descriptive statistics. This includes location, dispersion
and shape statistics, moments and cumulants, as well
as several data summary and tabulation commands.
- Statistical plots including box
plots, bar charts, histograms, probability plots, and
scatter plots.
- Optimized algorithms for simulating
all supported distributions, as well as tools for creating
custom random number generators, and parametric and
non-parametric bootstrapping.
- Tools for fitting linear and nonlinear
models to data points and performing regression analysis.
- Tools for manipulating likelihood
functions, maximum likelihood estimation, kernel density
estimation, and bootstrapping.
- Tools for manipulating statistical
data such as data smoothing functions for moving averages,
exponential smoothing, and linear filters.
- Common tools for performing hypothesis
testing and inference, including several parametric
and non-parametric tests.
