Two questions about ST software: Is there anyone who has ... a) informations about a SPSS implementation on ATARI ST .. b) informations about an ATARI ST implementation of a DEC VAX like $ DIFFERENCE utility ..

Assuming that the reference is to the same package with which I am familiar,
it's Statistical Package for the Social Sciences. It is available for the
IBM-PC, but I've never heard of it being available for the ST. (The original
version is a mainframe version.)

SPSS is a statistics package for the social sciences, which has the following features: - allows you to mangle your data until you get the results you really wanted - produce a maximum of hardcopy output with a minimum of data - introduces a lot of people to such marvellous things like JCL and MVS (there is a IBM-PC version...shudder...) a completly biased opinion from: -- ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- UUCP: ...mcvax!cernvax!forty2!poole Simon Poole BITNET: K538915@CZHRZU1A ----------------------------------------------------------------------------

I have seen a program, equivalent to, but not compatible with, SPSS for the Atari at the Leiden University Psychology department. It looked PD, but I will check.

Please make this information available since there is a scarcity of statistical software for the ST here. .
