StatPlus:mac is not a plugin for Excel but is an indepedent application that can work on Excel files, it is written in AppleScript + optimized for Intel or PPC math core, with all interactions written in AppleScript. The Help system is excellent and gives detailed information. Download and installation works smoothly and the application comes with a series of simple tutorials, in html format, and example files. For this review I'm using a Dual 2.5 Ghz PPC G5 and Microsoft Excel 2004. StatPlus:mac is available for both PPC and Intel machines and works with Microsoft Excel 20. Use different methods from contingency tables analysis to rank correlations, Probit and Latin squares, Kruskal-Wallis ANOVA and Cochran Q test, without compromising ease of use.
