Introduction to Operating Xtremes
The statistical software Xtremes possesses graphics facilities, a
facility to generate and load
data, an arsenal of diagnostic tools and statistical procedures,
and a numerical part for Monte-Carlo simulations. Xtremes is first of
all designed especially for use with a mouse, yet it can also perform
excellently with just the keyboard. The pull-down menu structure, in
conjunction with dialog boxes and help facilities, makes the program simple
and straightforward to use.
The experienced user can employ the integrated Pascal-like programming
language StatPascal to implement simulation or
estimation procedures not covered by the menu system. Moreover,
the UserFormula facility
may be utilized when a single formula is required to plot a curve
or to generate or transform a data set.
You can use this help system to get information about all the
commands, the menus and the items in the toolbar. Some basic features are
described in
"Here we go". Moreover there is a list
of available data sets.
Notice that all formulas are presented by means of the syntax of UFO and
StatPascal. Especially Greek letters appear as italic words
(alpha, beta, ...).
