AMS 315, Fall 2024

Obtaining Statistical Computing Resources

Statistical Programming Languages

Many computer programs specialize in performing statistical computations: SAS, R, SPSS, and Minitab among others.

The R statistical program is freely available as a download from the internet, and many statistical researchers make the R-code that computes new methods available on the web as an appendix to  a paper or in freely available web site.

Since the SAS program is currently the most widely used in pharmaceutical companies and financial institutions, I recommend that you learn it. SPSS is widely used among social scientists and market researchers. It is most used in an interactive analysis environment (researcher requests analysis, and program computes results immediately). My experience is that its interactive pull-down menu is vastly superior to that of SAS.

Minitab is widely used in teaching of statistics but is not often used in business. It has extremely good software. Matlab also has good software. The Excel spreadsheet program can perform. many statistical calculations and should become a strong competitor to SAS in the future. You may need to obtain statistical functions from a download from Microsoft. It is not currently competitive with the other statistical packages for multiple linear regression calculations. Some students using Python got incorrect results.

SINC sites Software Availability

SAS is only available through the Virtual SINC site. The software listed below can be downloaded through the university IT support webpage:

Obtaining Statistical Software

If you want your own copy of a statistical program, you can do sousing the following instructions.

Obtaining SAS (Windows Users)

For Windows users, SAS can be downloaded for free from Stony Brook through Softweb using your NetID, but first you need to put in a request to download the software. Follow these

instructions.

• Login this websitehttps://softweb.cc.stonybrook.edu/?sas. You will need to enter your NetID and password.

• After yourlogin, download SAS for either 32-bit or 64-bit based on your Windows operating system.

• Software licensing is renewed annually. SAS renewal license files are available to active and enrolled students through Softweb.

Obtaining SPSS

Students can rent their own 6- or 12-month license of SPSS fromhttp://www.onthehub.com/spss/

at an academic discount. There are different versions of SPSS Statistics 24 available starting at $40 for the base package. You will need to register using yourstonybrook.eduemail to

download.

Obtaining Minitab

Minitab can be downloaded for free from Stony Brook through Softweb

https://softweb.cc.stonybrook.edu/?mt. You will need your NetID and password to login.

Obtaining R

The R statistical program is freely available on the internet,https://www.r-project.org.
