Objectives:
The objective of this document is to provide information to allow the user to:
1. Download the MegaStat add-in from the Internet and install it in Excel.
2. Provide an overview of using Excel for descriptive statistics.
3. Provide an overview of using Excel for inferential statistics.

Statistics Using Excel
MS Excel has many built in statistical functions. You can see this by
clicking on the Insert Function button in your Excel worksheet.

That yields an Insert Function menu as seen next:

Page 4

From the Insert Function Menu, select statistical and click on the OK
button. This gives a list of about 50 statistical functions from which
to choose. A small fraction is shown below:

Statistics Using Excel and MegaStat
MegaStat is an Excel plug-in that can be downloaded for free from
McGraw Hill. MegaStat is a Graphical User Interface (GUI)
through which a user can select data and analyses to run. It
makes statistical analysis in Excel very easy.

MegaStat

MegaStat.xla

Step 1 Get MegaStat

I have a flash drive with MegaStat. You may copy the file from me.
All you need is a file called, MegaStat.xla. Place it in your file
directory and remember where.

MegaStat.xla

Page 6

Alternately you could download MegaStat from McGraw Hill. The


URL is:
http://highered.mcgrawhill.com/sites/0010126585/student_view0/megastat.html

The information and download instructions are at the bottom of this


page. It looks like this:

Note that there is a tutorial as well.

Page 7

Click on one of the download options under Installing the MegaStat


Add-In. The following menu appears. Click Open.

Then, Click Allow on the Menu below.

Page 8

Then Extract to the desktop, finally clicking on OK

The following three (3) files are then on your desktop. MegaStat is
now on your computer (bottom file).

Page 9

Step 2 - Adding MegaStat to Excel

In your Excel spreadsheet, click on the Microsoft Logo. The menu


below will appear. Click on Excel Options at the bottom of this
menu.

Page 10

This results in the Excel Options menu. Click on Add-Ins and then
the Go Button.

The Add Ins menu appears. Make sure that Analysis ToolPak,
Solver Add-In and MegaStat are checked. Click OK.

Page 11

MegaStat now appears in your program under the Add-Ins menu.

Excel and MegaStat are now correctly configured. You are ready to
use it.

Descriptive Statistics
Descriptive statistics involves numerically or graphically
summarizing data so that it is easier to understand. Ill show you a
few examples.
You can use any data set. I have one that involves grades for
quizzes. Click on MegaStat under the Add-Ins menu. The following
menu appears.

Choose Descriptive Statistics. The Descriptive statistics menu is


produced as shown below.
1.
2.
3.
4.

Choose the tests that you want to run.


Click on any data point
Click on the Input range label to expand your selection.
Click on the OK button.

Page 13

Clicking OK creates a new sheet called, Output with the results of


your analysis. Notice that there are many options. A few
descriptive statistics are show and 1 dot plot. This is shown in the
next figure.

Click on Input
range before
clicking on OK

An Output sheet is created containing the following results:

We can see that there are a lot of statistical procedures that we can
u se. Have a look at an earlier menu:

Descriptive statistics are all under the first two (2) menu items,
Descriptive Statistics and Frequency Distributions.

Measures of Data Distribution


The Normal Frequency Distribution
A very common way in which data are distributed is called the
normal distribution. It looks like this:

If we sample data on a specific characteristic which is normally


distributed, several important features are seen:

1. Data are centered around the middle of the curve, Z=0


above.
2. The curve continues to +/- . It never touches the horizontal
axis.
3. The areas under the curve correspond to probabilities.
4. Total area under the curve is equal to 1.0000.

Standard Deviation
The curve you see above is a standard normal curve. None of your
data will be standard. The Z values in the curve above represent
the Number of Standard Deviations from the mean. Also note that
the mean value is 0. You need a way to convert your data to
standard normal form. That is done with the following formula:

Page 16

Where: x is your value of interest; is the mean value observe,


is standard deviation.
Population standard deviation is given by the following formula:

where n is the number of data points. In the end, we consider


standard deviation a measure of the width the probability distribution
for a given data set.
Sample standard deviation, s, is given as:

Mean
The mean is nothing more than the average, and it is expressed as:

Median
Median is the point at which the 50% of the data has a greater value and 50% has a
smaller value. The median of a data set is found through inspection or by using
software.

Mode
The mode of a data set is its most commonly occurring value. If no value occurs at
least twice, there is no move. If several values occur with the same frequency, the data
set has multiple modes. The mode of a data set is found through inspection or by using
software.
Lets follow this with an example.

The median for Class 1 is 75.5 while that for Class 2 is 76. Class 1
has no mode value; the mode of Class 2 is 81 (it occurs twice).

Now, please compare the mean (average) values of Class 1 and


Class 2.
Then compare the standard deviation of Class 1 and Class 2. What
do these numbers tell us? Which class did better?

Visualizing Data
Often it is helpful if we can see a picture of the data. There are
many ways to do this. I would advise using software for this. Hand
drawing is just so time consuming! Its also quite difficult to make
changes.
Pie Charts

These charts are a segmented circle representing relative


proportions. This is the only one of the graphics that cannot be
drawn by MegaStat. Use the chart wizard. Data for Class1 and
Class 2 are as shown.

1. Given the following 10 numbers: 756, 791, 707, 743, 744, 759, 766, 781, 756,
761, determine the following:

You may do this with Excel, if you wish.
2. Given a process with an average completion time of 91 seconds with a
population standard deviation of 3.5 seconds, calculate the Z-values for the
following times:
84 seconds
98 seconds
103 seconds
3. Given a factory line that fills 30,000 boxes per day. Each box is to be filled with
250 grams of product. The population standard deviation is 1 gram. What is the
probability of randomly selecting a box that has weight:
250 grams? (also, how many boxes does this represent?)
251.21 grams> (also, how many boxes does this represent?)
< 247.36 grams (also, how many boxes does this represent?)
4. Present the data in question 1 as:
A dot plot
A stem & leaf diagram
A box plot
You should use Excel for this.
