ABSTRACT
Minitab is a widely used statistical package. Versions of it run on DOS, Microsoft Windows, Macintosh, VMS, and Unix. It provides a wide variety of procedures for data analysis. It allows the user to enter, edit, and manipulate data. The data analysis features include exploratory data analysis, basic statistics, regression analysis, analysis of variance, multivariate analysis, nonparametric statistics, time series analysis, simulations, professional graphics, and quality control and improvement. In addition, Minitab has a macro capability that permits users to program commands to carry out procedures that are not part of Minitab.
