writers to show the relevance of statistical techniques in realistic situations through
engaging examples. This text seamlessly integrates computer applications such as Microsoft
Excel and XLSTAT with textual examples and figures always focusing on interpreting the
output. The goal is for students to be able to know which tools to use how to apply the tools
and how to analyze results for making decisions.
