Minitab 16

One of Assistant Menu, From www.minitab.com

After installing Minitab 16, I found 'Assistant' in menu after 'Help' . It is new feature of Minitab 16 that help you to do a lot of statistical works step-by-step. For example I want to create a 'Control Chart' , Assistant help me step-by-step to find and solve my problem. It is like an engineering plan.
Minitab 16 is very useful for those who has never used any statistical software before because they can learn it very quickly and do their statistical works. I found some new tutorial in 'help' menu. Minitab help system is very easy-to-learn and in hand. After exploring Minitab16, I visit it's official website www.minitab.com. I found a very good introduction video of it's new features. After that I found 'Quality Trainer' new product of Minitab co. I watch the video . I think it is very amazing for studying statistical concepts. I wish to use it as soon as possible.

Models,Everywhere.

Statistics...a very wonderful science.
Have you ever seen a tree?
Yes...A tree.It is full of models.I spend a lot of time watching a tree.
Decision making theory is in it.
Graph is in it.
Pine trees had remembered me Random Walking Model,goes up and down, up and down....
Palm tree is like a very hard detected model.No steam,no leaves.It seems be a line,very straight one.But at the end of the line, there are a lot of leaves.Lot of observations or umm may be outliers!!!
In walnut leaf,I see a linear regression model.May be each vessels is the nearest line of water for cells.Like an Operations Research ideas in world war II. Nearest Hospital solution...
All of them are in a tree.Only a tree....
Statistics and models are everywhere and everyone can enjoy it.
Traffics, Clouds, Winds, Ants, Waves, Stars, people and people!!! and etc.
Models are everywhere.
Just imagine and look.
