Abstract:

Plots developed in XLISP-STAT a few years ago are now available in R. These plots demonstrate the sequence of computation of basic statistics including the mean and standard deviation (from data and from pmf definitions) , the correlation coefficient, the F-test in one way ANOVA, and Chi-squared test for simple contingency tables. These plots may be valuable as alternative teaching presentations. The plots are relatively untested a diagnostics.
