Cranes Software launches MYSTAT 12, a free statistical analysis software for the global academia

~Revival of openly-downloadable MYSTAT product facilitates learning and academic research~

Bangalore, 03 January 2008: Cranes Software International Limited, a global provider of Enterprise Statistical Analytics and Engineering Simulation Software Products and Solutions today launched MYSTAT 12, a freely downloadable statistical analysis software package designed specifically for use by students and the teaching community.

MYSTAT 12 is a streamlined variation of the SYSTAT 12, designed specifically for educational use. It contains statistical and graphical features related to topics that are generally covered in undergraduate-level and beginning-graduate level statistics-related courses. By making MYSTAT freely available at www.systat.com/products/mystat, Cranes Software enables teachers and students to install the software on their personal and lab computers. The software can help students in virtually any course that involves quantitative analysis, including psychology, social sciences, biology, economics and market research.

Dr. Leland Wilkinson, Executive Vice President and inventor of the original SYSTAT product, said

With so many newly emerging applications for statistical analysis, there has never been a more important time to provide students and professors free access to the resources they need to promote research and prepare the next generation of the global workforce. Freely-available analytical tools like MYSTAT encourage discovery and support the free flow of information.


Wilkinson commented further that,

MYSTAT 12 includes a vast majority of the powerful statistical functionality found in the SYSTAT software package. We’re pleased and proud to re-introduce this outstanding product, and we hope that it plays a key role in global academic achievement.



MYSTAT 12 comes with the entire set of SYSTAT 12 PDF user manuals, comprehensive online help files, and several sample data files for practice. Additionally the two-volume MYSTAT workbook which is currently under development will supplement the course materials and encourage students to explore the software.

MYSTAT 12 has many of the core statistical functions available in the SYSTAT 12 product. It contains standard statistical and graphical functionality, as well as teaching aids such as Random Sampling and a Probability Calculator. It also includes advanced functions not normally found in introductory statistics packages, such as the Loglinear Model, as well as Logit, Probit, and Nonlinear Regression. MYSTAT 12 can accept a maximum of 100 variables with no limit on the number of cases.

SYSTAT 12, the comprehensive statistical analysis package upon which MYSTAT 12 is based, is licensed by businesses, universities, and governmental institutions worldwide.
