Statistical Software - Minitab

1 Statistical SoftwareLearn What s New Upgrade now to access new and improved Statistical features and other enhancements that make it even easier to analyze your Interface ImprovementsMinitab Statistical Software has all the tools you need to effectively analyze your data . By guiding you to the right analysis and giving you clear results, Minitab helps you solve your toughest business 18 includes new features and functionality to make data analysis easier than ever. Sort Worksheets Easily manage your data within the Project Manager using new options for sorting your worksheets by title or in chronological Session Window The Session window not only looks better, but it also includes several great enhancements, including the ability to: Specify the number of significant digits Easily access graphs via links Zoom in and outNew Statistical Features Definitive Screening Designs Identify which inputs affect your outputs with this new type of DOE screening design.

2 These designs can provide an alternative to standard screening designs where main effects are confounded with two-way interactions. More Distributions for Tolerance Intervals Calculate Statistical tolerance intervals for nonnormal data using a wide variety of distributions including Weibull, lognormal, exponential, and Statistical Features REML for Random and Fixed X s Explore relationships between variables, run multiple comparisons, and calculate predictions for mixed R&R Incorporate a user-specified process (historical) standard deviation in relevant calculations. DOE Effects Plots Visually identify significant X s with effects plots for general factorial and response surface designs. GLM Response Optimizer Include both your factors and covariates when using the response optimizer to find optimal Line PaneEnter commands to expand Minitab s functionality using a docked pane that keeps commands separate from Session and Excel ImprovementsImport Session output into Word and Excel in table format to easily manipulate and customize the appearance of your for a free 30-day trial of Minitab EnhancementsMinitab 18 Features ListAssistantMeasurement systems analysis Capability analysisGraphical analysisHypothesis testsRegressionDOEC ontrol charts Basic StatisticsDescriptive statisticsOne-sample Z-test, one- andtwo-sample t-tests.
