Q: What tools do I use to do data analysis on a data set?
A:
Go to Tools => Data Analysis and choose the type of analysis you want to perform on your data set.
Enter the input range and the output range, and then select the options you want. Before using an analysis tool, you must arrange the data you want to analyze in columns or rows on your worksheet. This is your input range.
If the Data Analysis command is not on the Tools menu, you need to install the Analysis ToolPak in Microsoft Excel. (see next FAQ)
