Contrary to Tests of Hypotheses intended to verify a priori hypotheses regarding relations between variables, Exploratory Data Analysis (EDA) is used to search and discover systematic relationships between variables by taking into count a large number of variables. In these exploratory techniques, visual displays and dynamic manipulations of data using graphics are essential. For the past decade, along with the advent of new capabilities in computer sciences and the interactivity between windows, the EDA-oriented software provides the skilled statistician with new tools and strategies to analyse data. These visual techniques change the «landscape» for professional statisticians as well as novice learners in statistics. In our interactive demonstration and presentation, you will learn more about SAS/Insight and how this module can help a novice SAS user, as well as an experienced SAS user in statistics.
