NAME

statist − statistics program.

SYNOPSIS

statist [ options ] data_file

DESCRIPTION

statist is a terminal-based statistics program with an interactive menu that makes it very easy to use. It can also be run in scripts and big datasets are handled reasonably well even on small machines. In spite of its low overhead statist can do quite a bunch of regression functions and tests. It can produce colorized output and uses gnuplot to create graphics.

statist accepts the following command line options:
−h, −?, −−help

Print a short help message and exit.

−−quiet, −−silent

Don’t print menu etc. (for batch/script usage).

−−nofile
