Statistical Software: Statistical computations for Sums of Squares, multiple range tests and so
forth will be done with Statistical Software Packages. It does not matter which package you use
for the computations since the underlying formulae for the computations are really the same.
SAS, JMP (a point and click version of SAS), R, SPSS and Minitab are all standard Statistical
software packages which can be used for this course.
Software Resources:

Assistance with using software packages can be obtained from the Statistical Consulting

software related questions.
