Statistical data analysis and display routinely requires large numbers of
repetitive calculations. Properly programmed computers excel at this type of
task. Mainframe machines were once required, but with 1st, impressive
statistical power in a user friendly environment is available to the data
analyst or statistician who lacks access to large machines. Acorn RISC OS
computers running any of the 1st family of statistical packages can help
you like no other.
