Computing
Computations for this course will be illustrated using STATA, and
those with access to this program should use it for the work of this class.
Other statistical packages, however, may be suitable, and students who are
thoroughly familiar with other statistical software (such as S,
SAS, Minitab, or SPSS) may elect to use those
packages for the coursework.
How to get access to Stata
STATA is available to the University public on the Windows computers
at the Central User Site ("Usite"), located in Harper Library
in Wieboldt 310. In addition, STATA will soon be added to computers
in the Regenstein and Crerar clusters. Those with accounts on the SSPPCC
("SPC-squared") facilities also have access via on the SPC machine.
