XploRe: An Interactive Statistical Computing Environment Hardback
by Wolfgang Hardle, Sigbert Klinke, Berwin A. Turlach
Part of the Statistics and Computing series
Hardback
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.
