About

Graphs provide a convenient, powerful, and quick method of assessing data. Humans are particularly good at pattern recognition, and oddly distributed or outlying data can be seen far more easily when the data are plotted rather than tabulated.  Where possible, all data should be examined in pictorial form, and to facilitate this OxonStat provides a set of high-resolution graphics options as an aid to data interpretation.  The resulting graphs can be printed on any printer.

Where multiple Y or X variables are selected each Y variable is compared in turn with each X variable (i.e. Many to many). In addition, where equal numbers of Y and X variables are selected, variables can be compared in a one to one fashion if desired. See Performing multiple analyses
