XploRe: An Interactive Statistical Computing Environment Paperback / softback
by Wolfgang Hardle, Sigbert Klinke, Berwin A. Turlach
Part of the Statistics and Computing series
Paperback / softback
Description
This book describes an interactive statistical computing environment called 1 XploRe.
As the name suggests, support for exploratory statistical analysis is given by a variety of computational tools.
XploRe is a matrix-oriented statistical language with a comprehensive set of basic statistical operations that provides highly interactive graphics, as well as a programming environ ment for user-written macros; it offers hard-wired smoothing procedures for effective high-dimensional data analysis.
Its highly dynamic graphic capa bilities make it possible to construct student-level front ends for teaching basic elements of statistics.
Hot keys make it an easy-to-use computing environment for statistical analysis.
The primary objective of this book is to show how the XploRe system can be used as an effective computing environment for a large number of statistical tasks.
The computing tasks we consider range from basic data matrix manipulations to interactive customizing of graphs and dynamic fit ting of high-dimensional statistical models.
The XploRe language is similar to other statistical languages and offers an interactive help system that can be extended to user-written algorithms.
The language is intuitive and read ers with access to other systems can, without major difficulty, reproduce the examples presented here and use them as a basis for further investigation.
