A user saw a of his or her data, comprising columns that could be, or categories, and rows that were usually cases (such as individual people for data). Columns had informative headings; rows were numbered. Category data looked like strings (e.g., a column headed 'sex' would have entries of 'male' and 'female', but these were coded by the application as integers). Category data were used to perform inferential statistical tests such as,.
To calculate statistics, a user clicked on particular column headings, designating them as an x value and one or more y values. Then the user used the application's to choose. For example, a user's spreadsheet might contain columns for names of a in a (a string), sex (a category variable), IQ (integer), and years using a (real). By designating number of years using a PC as an x variable and IQ as a y variable, the user could then choose from a menu to perform a. The user then had to choose from another menu how to view the regression in a separate, either as a table, in which case the regression equation and were displayed, or as a, in which case a graph of the data and the regression line were shown.
Contents of the analysis window could be copied either as text or as a. StatView was initially distributed by from. It grew up with the Macintosh, changing owners along the way. StatView 3 to 5 were distributed. It was then bought by who discontinued it in favour of. The application continued to run under with Apple's, but could not run on.
In 2014, it still runs under OS 10.7.5 emulation using. StatView 2 was called StatView SE + Graphics.
It included ANOVA with one repeated-measure and, remarkably, a. In StatView 4, the user approach changed from touching the to-be-analyzed data in the spreadsheet to clicking on column names in a separate window. This lack of immediacy was compensated for by an increase in the number of statistical tests that could be performed and in the power of existing tests. For example, multiway repeated-measures factors could be included in ANOVAs, with the only limit being the memory allocated to the application. There were and too. StatView 4 also became available for PCs. Statview 5.01 for Windows runs without issue on Windows XP, Windows 7 Home and Pro, both 32- and 64-bit systems.
(This does not appear to actually be the case, the only method on Windows 7 appears to be using XP Mode.) It appears to run without issue in Windows 8 under Classic Shell. Despite its lack of availability and support and the difficulty of running the application on Mac computers current in 2009, StatView still has some loyal users.

SAS Institute's StatView 5.0. 10/01/01 The SAS Institute's StatView 5.0 statistical package is an outstanding statistical data analysis program that is appropriate for all levels of statisticians, from students beginning their study of statistics through professionals engaged in serious advanced analyses. The graphical user interface and elegant output make this statistics program a powerful teaching tool compared to other traditional spreadsheet programs and textbooks. Data entry is via a familiar spreadsheet format, with data definition being obvious and transparent to most new users. Data may be imported from Excel, SPSS or from other common file formats. Graphics are simply generated with a few clicks of the mouse, and the user controls every format aspect of output tables and graphics.
StatView has distinct advantages over popular spreadsheet programs used in some beginning statistics classes. It is superior to spreadsheets and their add-ins for analyzing and graphing data. Its user and statistical reference manuals, ease of use, common statistical terminology, analyses, graphics and commanding output exceed such programs as Excel. StatView is a cross-platform program, while Excel is platform specific. And StatView has a greater variety of analyses, graphics, formulae and routines than Excel. As a teacher educator, I have taught statistics to graduate students in education for years (three to six sections each year), and I have never used a program that students enjoy as much as they do StatView.
During the 2000 fall semester, I required my students to learn both Excel and StatView. After students learned to enter, analyze and graph data, they began comparing the two programs. My students found that using StatView required less than a quarter of the time necessary to accomplish such tasks as data definition, entry, analyses and graphics than in Excel. My students preferred using StatView over most common spreadsheet programs, traditional textbooks and other statistical analysis programs.
Many of them began using the program even though they lacked computer experience or computer skills. The ease with which my students learned to use StatView enabled them to focus on the what and the why of statistical concepts, analyses and graphics rather than on how to structure one task after another.
Instead of focusing on data entry and how to write formulae for analyses, interpretation of output became critical. Visiting Professor New Mexico Highlands University, School of Education.
