I'm unfamiliar with the Excel Data Analysis tool, so I may be misunderstanding the requirement, but have you looked at Gnu Octave? It's very similar to MatLab in its interface, and has quite powerful analysis tools, although I don't know how good the statistical suite is. It certainly has a friendlier learning curve than R. -- A. -- Andrew Reid / rei...@bellatlantic.net -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
