Statistics? Some people aren’t sure what it is. The best thing about statistics is that it’s about real life. It’s

based on actual information (at least usually) we call data. Instead of a lot of details now, let’s get to know

what data means by examples. Ready?

∂Press the Obutton to turn your calculator on.

∑When your calculator first gets powered on out of the

package, it should display the ain enu. If you

have already used your calculator, just press

the pkey.

∏We’re going to do statistics. ake a wild guess –

which of these menu items do we want? Brilliant!

It’s STAT. There are two ways to tell the calculator to

go there. One is to use the arrow keypad (the oval-

shaped thing that says REPLAY in the middle)

tomove right, $and highlight the STAT icon. Once it’s highlighted, press l.

The other choice is to simply press 2.

πLists! Everybody’s got them – song lists, shopping

lists, to-do lists, wish lists, well you know what you

have. This calculator feature is about lists, too. In

fact, we’ll call it the list editor. Suppose you asked

everyone in your math class for his/her type of pet and

“the survey said”:

Put the five values in List1. Press lafter each value to move to the next position in the list.

∫Notice those icons along the bottom of your screen? Those are called soft keys. Let’s check out the

first one, GRPH. No, it’s not an animal with a long neck. Just imagine “I’d like to buy a vowel,

please. Is there an A?” There is! It’s really Graph, but the whole word didn’t fit. Press q.

Type How many

None 2

Bird 3

Cat 8

Dog 10

Fish 7

œGA E, SET, and ATCH! Well, not quite, but we

are ready for SET. It’s more like set it up. This is

where we tell the calculator about the graph we want

to make. Press u.

ºPie! mmmm! aybe Apple or French silk?

Actually we’re going to make a pie chart. The top

line probably reads StatGraph1. If it doesn’t, just

press qto change it. Now press Nto select

Graph Type. Press rto select the Pie chart.

Also check that List1 and % are selected as shown.

Press dand qto see the chart.

ΩNow try to change the graph to a Bar chart.

Press u(>)to find the Bar graph option.

The example we have just done uses categorical data. The choices such as dog and cat are categories, and

the values we used are counts, because we counted how many people had that type of pet. Now we are

going to use quantitative data, where we get values that are more like measurements than counts. Suppose

we record the height for you and eight of your friends and we get these nine values:

63, 64, 64, 65, 66, 67, 68, 68, 70

∂Press dto return to the List editor and put these

values in List1.

∑Use SET to make a new type of graph. Use Nto go

to Graph Type. This time we don’t see the type we

want. Notice the arrow above F6? That means there

are more choices. Press u.

∏“The dangerous, poisonous snake Hist at them!”

Well, not quite. Hist stands for histogram. It’s like a

bar chart, but a better choice for quantitative data.

ove down to Graph Type and press q. Check that

the next row shows List1. Press dand q.

πA window opens up to help us make a nice graph.

Use a number smaller than those in our list, like 60,

for Start. Use 1 for Width. Width means the width of

each rectangle in our histogram. Our height values

are very close to one another so 1 is a good choice.

Press lto see the graph.

∫Box and whisker? That’s a joke right? Actually, no.

It is the name that statisticians use for another kind of

plot, although, sometimes it is called a boxplot. If

you are going to make these, your teacher will ex-

plain the details. For now, for a little extra practice,

change your graph by using the Graph Type Box.

œLet’s do one more thing with these data. Press da

couple of times to return to the List Editor, and the

GRPH soft key. Look next to it. There’s CALC.

Well, it is a calculator, right? It should be able to cal-

culate. We actually get a lot of calculating. Press w

and then qfor 1Var (because we have only one

variable, the heights). We get a lot of information

about our data, like the mean (or average). Press N

to scroll down and see even more, like the median and

the maximum values.

Sometimes we work with paired data. As the name suggests we have two variables that we believe are

associated. For example, you may have heard something like this: if you extend your arms straight out

parallel to the floor, and measure fingertip to fingertip, it is about the same as your height. Suppose we did

this with you and your eight friends. Now each person has a pair of numbers, height and arm span.

We can check out this theory. Let’s suppose the measurements are:

65, 64, 63, 66, 64, 68, 70, 67, 70

It would be important to know that the numbers are

matched up, that is the first number in the list is for the

same person as the first number in the height list.

∂Return to the list editor and put these values in List2.

Press q(GRPH) and then uto set up a graph.

∑Scat! Trying to chase that cat away? The Cat in the

Hat, maybe? Fox in Socks? OK, probably not. Scat

stands for scatterplot and we make one to see a pic-

ture of our pairs. It’s just like plotting points in Alge-

bra class. Change the Graph Type. Also make sure

List1 and List2 are selected. You can even choose the

size of your points with ark Type.

∏Press dand q(GPH1) and you have your plot.

The calculator created a good window to see these

points. Pretty cool!

πSometimes we try to get a model. No, not that kind

of model! In statistics, a model means an equation

that helps to see how the variables are associated.

The simplest type of model is linear. Now, our data

isn’t perfectly linear; we see that the points are not in

a perfect line. For some people arm span does equal

height, but for others it is a little more or less.

The model would describe the overall association

for the whole group, and show us a linear equation

like y = ax + b. I know, you’re used to m for slope.

In statistics, coefficients are almost always a, b, c, etc.

Let’s try it! Press da couple of times to return to

the List Editor, and the GRPH and the CALC soft

keys. Press w(CALC).

∫We used 1Var before, but this time we want REG.

Reggae! Let’s get some music going! Everybody

dance! Well…no. REG stands for regression, and it’s

a fancy word for “let’s find the best model.” Details

about “best” would be given in a statistics class.

For now…believe! Press e(REG). Now we see a

whole lot of choices about the type of model. The

one with the plain X is our linear model, so press q.

We get two choices, go with qagain. We see the

slope and y-intercept for our model, along with some

other information.

œSee that COPY soft key on the right? It saves a lot of

work. It will copy our equation for us, so we don’t

have to write it down and type it all in. Press u. Now

we see the function editor; you probably used this

editor a lot in algebra class. You get to select which

place to copy the equation. Y1 is the usual choice, so

press l. Press d several times to return to the List

Editor and the GRPH soft key. Press qtwice to see

the scatterplot. Press w for DefG, define graph.

Now you can see that the calculator really did

copy your equation.

ºDRAW! It's not really a gunfight on some video

game. It’s, well, draw, that’s draw the graph. The

line is shown with the scatterplot.

ΩPress Lqto Trace on the graph. At first, you

are on the scatterplot, and you see the pairs. If you

press N, then you are on the line.

This is an introduction to some of the things you can do

with this exciting calculator when you are learning about

statistics. There are many more features to explore,

especially if you take a statistics class in high school.
