Entering and editing statistical data

The Numeric view ( ) is used to enter data into the Statistics aplet. Each column represents a variable named C0 to C9. After entering the data, you must define the

data set in the Symbolic view ( ).

H I N T A data column must have at least four data points to provide valid two-variable statistics, or two data points for one-variable statistics.

You can also store statistical data values by copying lists from HOME into Statistics data columns. For example, in

HOME, L1 C1 stores a copy of the list L1 into the data-column variable C1.
