Statgraphics Sigma Express for Microsoft Excel
07/12/2011Nieuw: Sigma Express
STATGRAPHICS Sigma Express is an "add-in" for Microsoft Excel that enables users to perform various calculations required when learning or applying Six Sigma. It adds a menu selection to Excel containing sections for each item of the DMAIC paradigm (Define, Measure, Analyze, Improve and Control) plus additional menu items for Tools and Help. The contents are sufficient to cover the needs of yellow belts, green belts and most black belts. In addition, it is similar enough to STATGRAPHICS Centurion that users can easily upgrade to that product if they need additional statistical capabilities.
How are data selected in STATGRAPHICS Sigma Express?
Data are selected by first highlighting it in your Excel worksheet and then selecting a procedure from the STATGRAPHICS section that has been added to the Excel menu.
How are results displayed?
Results are displayed in a STATGRAPHICS analysis window with multiple panes for tables and graphs. Users may interact with the graphs to change any graphics attribute, drag existing text or add new text, zoom and pan, rotate 3D graphs, and click on points to retrieve associated data.
How are tables and graphs saved?
When satisfied with the output, it may be pasted back into the Excel worksheet or into another application such as Word or PowerPoint. It may also be sent directly to a printer or saved in an image file.
