Application Guide

Data & Statistics Application
The Data & Statistics Application enables teachers and students to create graphical
displays and perform analysis on data stored in lists. Defining (or naming) sets of data
using the Lists & Spreadsheet Application is the starting point for plotting and
analyzing data.
What You Can Do
Work with sets of data in different types of plots.
Work with sets of data in different types of charts.
Manipulate variables to explore and visualize data relationships.
Explore central tendency and other statistical summary techniques.
Fit functions to data.
Create regression lines for scatter plots.
Graph hypothesis tests and results (z- and t-tests) based on summary statistics
definitions or data.
Tools Search
Tools Search allows you to search options and menus. It is available across all
applications in the TI-Nspire™ App.
Warning: Tools Search will allow you to search for menu items, but not for command
names.
What You Must Know
Plotting Variables
Lists created in Lists &Spreadsheet can be accessed as a variable.
Variables must be named before they can be used in Data &Statistics.
Tap the Add Variable field located in the center of the x-axis or y-axis to choose a
defined variable name.
The default plot for one variable is a dot chart. The data points in the default
caseplot reposition to represent the elements of the selected variable.
The default plot for two variables is a scatter plot. The data points shift to
represent the elements of both variables on a scatter plot.
Rescaling the Axes
Pinch or spread either the horizontal or vertical axis to modify its scale.
