Statistics Features - Workflows[]

As a basic workflow the users are guided through the selection of the appropriate basic statistical methods and assignment of the basic statistical on the table column of the data that should be analyzed, so it the workflow of SOFA is addressing more or less beginners. In comparison to Open Source R Statistics Software with a very large repository of statistics packages the features that are available within SOFA for statistical analysis are limited.
