New on CTAN: statistics
by CTAN Announcements 22 Jul '18

22 Jul '18

Julien Rivaud submitted the statistics package. Version number: 2.0 License type: gpl3+ Summary description: Compute and typeset statistics tables and graphics Announcement text: ---------------------------------------------------------------------- The statistics package can compute and typeset statistics tables containing frequencies, cumulative distribution functions (increasing or decreasing, in frequency or absolute count domain), from the counts of individual values, or ranges, or even the raw value list with repetitions. It can also compute and draw a bar diagram in case of individual values, or, when the data repartition is known from ranges, an histogram or the continuous cumulative distribution function. For teaching purposes, you can ask statistics to display no result, selective results or all of them. Similarly statistics can draw only some parts of the graphs. Every part of the generated tables or graphics is customizable. There is extensive documentation that I can improve if it is unclear, and I commit to stability and not breaking existing documents. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- This package is located at http://mirror.ctan.org/macros/latex/contrib/statistics More information is at http://www.ctan.org/pkg/statistics We are supported by the TeX User Groups.
