- EXAMPLE 1: Suppose you created three electromagnets made of three
- different kinds of wire -- Small, Medium and Large gauge.
- You tested each magnet to see how many nails it would pick up.
- You want a BAR CHART to show your results.

- KWIKSTAT allows you to create these kinds of graphs:
-
- o Bar Chart, Pie Chart, Line Chart, Area Chart
- o Histogram, Box and Whiskers, Normal Curve
- o Cumulative Distribution, Stem and Leaf Plot
- o X-Y Scatterplot, up to 10 groups
- o Time Series Plot, up to 10 overlayed
- o By Group Plots, and more
-
- To make data entry easy, KWIKSTAT creates and reads data in
- the standard dBASE format.
