Hello Pythonista's,
Just a short note to announce the 0.1.3 of SalStat, a relatively new
package for scientific statistical analysis written entirely in Python
and wxPython. It aims to be a little like SPSS or Statview, but has been
written with the "nervous" user in mind (people not comfortable with
statistics or computers) as I have taught SPSS to undergrads and seen
their problems.
The main website is at http://salstat.sunsite.dk and source code is
available from http://salstat.sunsite.dk/downloads.html. For the
curious, screenshots are at http://salstat.sunsite.dk/screenshots.html.
All code is released under the GNU GPL, and there is a mailing list at
sourceforge for anyone interested.
This release consolidates previous releases - a number of tests have
been added (such as the Point Biserial Correlation, Linear Regression
and single factor between subjects anova), the GUI has been improved,
and the output of the analysis (in html) is better formatted (with the
anova output as a nice table).
SalStat currently runs on Linux and Windows, and (if the author can get
his greasy paws on a nice new Mac) OSX possibly depending upon the
status of the OSX port of wxPython. Way to go guys!
