As Statistician teaching statistics in the University, I have to say that NCSS is the tool that I have used since 1997. With all the procedures that you need for research or to make a good, informative presentation, it can be used for teaching in a university. Here in Idesem-Chile we have found it to be the best tool to support our measurement activities. I recommend this tool to make your job more enjoyable!
