Getting started with
Data & Statistics
The Data & Statistics application is designed as a place to explore and
visualize data and graph inferential statistics. It is, therefore, best used in
conjunction with a numerical application like Calculator or Lists &
Spreadsheet.
Creating plots from spreadsheet data
The Quick Graph feature of Lists and Spreadsheet is the easiest way to
plot data using the columns in a spreadsheet.
