Statistical Information
A selected sample of sources for statistical algorithms, source code, and data.
From here you can navigate toward the broader ecosystem of
statistical tools on the web. It is a work in progress. Links are organized into four
categories:
General Statistical Archives,
Specific Statistical Programs,
On-Line Statistical Processing, and
Guides and General Information.

Specific Statistical Programs
- Jamovi.
Use R
syntax and a statistical spreadsheet to analyze your data
on your own computer or use the built-in analyses. Free
program. Factor analysis (EFA, CFA, PCA), ANOVA, MANCOVA,
regression, descriptives, etc.
- JASP.
Free,
open-source, desktop statistics program with lots of analyses
in classical and Bayesian forms. Plotbuilder, Meta analysis
methods, descriptives, factor analsis, ARIMA, regression, and
more.
- R
Free software
for statistical computing and graphics, similar to the S
language. Many packages (over 22K currently) available to
add features and procedures. A GNU project. See also
Tidyverse a collection of
R packages for data science. Includes packages like ggplot2,
dplyr, tidyr, readr, purrr, tibble, stringr, forcat, and
lubridate. These packages are for reading, manipulating data,
and creating data frames, as well as creating graphics.
- GNU PSPP
GNU PSPP is a Free as in Freedom program for the statistical
analysis of sampled data. Current version is 2.01. It is
intended as a replacment for the proprietary program SPSS.
It can do descriptive statistics, T-tests, ANOVA, linear and
logistic regression, reliability and factor analysis. Can handle
1 billion cases and 1 billion variables. A GUI interface is
available. An indexed user manual is available. In mid-2025, the
project began a version based on rust code.
- Autobox Home Page
Autobox is a product of Automatic Forecasting Systems, Inc. which can be
used to identify and build Box-Jenkins ARIMA and Transfer function models.
Models may optionally be selected automatically. Includes graphical analysis
tools, automatic intervention detection, and many other features.
[for Windows; commercial product]
- XlispStat Information
Lisp-Stat was an extensible statistical computing environment for data
analysis, statistical instruction and research, with an emphasis on
providing a framework for exploring the use of dynamic graphical
methods. XLISP-STAT was a version of Lisp-Stat based on a dialect
of Lisp called XLISP. NOTE: Xlisp-Stat was abandoned in 1998. Below
are a few links to some Xlisp-Stat resources including source code.
- Xlisp-Stat source in zip and tar.gz formats
- A collection of XLisp and Common Lisp statistical routines
- A github repo with xlisp-stat source code
- LOCFIT Local Regression & Likelihood and Density Estimation (github)
Available for R from CRAN source.
- Mx Gui 1.7
"Mx is a matrix algebra interpreter and numerical optimizer for
structural equation modeling and other types of statistical modeling of
data. It is being redeveloped as the OpenMx for R open source project
in collaboration with the University of Virginia and Argonne National
Laboratories. (May not be available)"
- The Estima Home Page
"RATS (Regression Analysis of Time Series) is a leading
econometrics/time-series analysis software package. It is used worldwide
by economists and others for analyzing time series and cross sectional
data, developing and estimating econometric models, forecasting, and
much more." [commercial product]
- The Ethnograph Qualitative Research & Data Analysis Software
Text-based qualitative data analysis software [commercial product].
- LIMDEP (Wikipedia Entry)
"A general econometrics program from Econometric Software
for estimating linear and nonlinear models, limited and qualitative
dependent variable models, models for cross section, time series, and
panel data." [commercial product]. As of November 2024, Econometric
Software ceased operations.
- SAS Institute
The SAS Institute Home Page. "The SAS System is an integrated suite
of software for enterprise-wide information delivery. The functionality
of the system is built around the four data-driven tasks common to
virtually any application -- data access, data management, data analysis
and data presentation." [commercial product]
- SAS On Demand for Academics
Cloud-based SAS with limitations. Useful for learning SAS, testing
code examples. Free access to SAS Studio. Requires a free profile account.
- SHAZAM
"SHAZAM is a comprehensive computer program for econometricians,
statisticians, biometricians, sociometricians, psychometricians,
politicometricians and others who use statistical techniques.... The
primary strength of SHAZAM is for the estimation and testing of many
types of regression models." [commercial product]
- SPSS Inc.

- MacANOVA Homepage
"MacAnova is a free, noncommercial, interactive statistical
analysis program for Macintosh, DOS/Windows (Win32s), and Unix written
by Gary W. Oehlert and Christopher Bingham, both of the School of
Statistics, University of Minnesota. MacAnova's strengths are analysis
of variance and related models, matrix algebra, time series, and (to a
lesser extent) uni- and multi-variate exploratory statistics."
- SciLab
Free, open-source, cross-platform numerical computation package.
An alternative to MATLAB (includes a MATLAB source translator).
