If you’re a student however or on a budget, if you can invest the time, you get a lot out of R for free. Stata is a far better option for day-to-day analyses but R does have more procedures, albeit it’s harder to use. Stata may be expensive but you do get full support, clear documentation and automatic updates which you don’t get in R Project. The other thing to bear in mind is that you get what you pay for when it comes to statistical software. These include things such as robust or bootstrap standard errors and generalized linear mixed models which have more features and are better implemented in Stata. You’ll also find that you have to do things manually in R which are automated in commercial software such as Stata. You can however make things a bit easier by installing a Graphical User Interface (GUI) such as R Commander and there are various books on how to use R with R Commander to help you. Since R Project is completely open source and developed for free by various contributors, there has been little effort to make it accessible to newcomers. However, compared to Wizard the learning curve of R is very steep indeed as you can see from the R Project manual. R Project is an amazingly powerful but free tool for statisticians and researchers which can do pretty much everything the commercial software Stata can do and more. Apple Numbers (Free El Capitan+ / $19.99 Mac App Store) Most functionality is perfect, and the installation runs fine with a few workarounds. It works good but the installation is troublesome. The retail version and the trial version work perfectly but they require DCOM98.ġ5.1 Retail and trial version of Minitab. This version of Minitab now can be found only in Japanese.
does not make this software available for purchase on their website, the CD for the software can be found for purchase on many third-party, marketplace websites. This version of Minitab is frequently sold as a part of a bundle/package when a student purchases a textbook. Appears to be the last student version to be Wine installable. It can be installed under Wine and works relatively well (occasionally some graphics are imperfect). This rather old version of the Student Edition of Minitab was generally bundled with textbooks.
