Elementary Statistics Using Excel is a complete introduction to basic statistics, with a strong emphasis on understanding statistics concepts and the inclusion of Excel spreadsheet technology for the analysis of data. Statistics topics are presented with illustrative examples, identification of required assumptions, and underlying theory. Excel instructions (based on Excel 2002) are provided along with typical displays of results, and information about Excel's limitations and alternative approaches. The CD-ROM included with each copy of the book includes DDXL, a software add-in that enhances and expands the capability of Excel, as well as the Appendix B data sets in the form of Excel workbooks.
