Download Statistics101 Updated 2/10/2024. Version 5.9 What's new
The Wizards module of
the latest version of
Statistics101
requires Java version 6 or later. If your computer has an earlier
version of Java and can't be upgraded to version 6, then the new
Wizards module will be unavailable but the rest of the functionality
will still be available.
Statistics101 is giftware,
with no time limit and no price. I hope you find it useful in your
statistical teaching, learning, or research. If you have an example
that you think others might be interested in, please consider
describing it in a post on the User Forum. If you have a
question
or a problem, you can either post it on the forum or email me directly.
Download and installation
instructions (Windows
Vista, Win7, and
Linux users see additional notes below):
1.
Click here or on the "Download
Statistics101" link
above to go to the download page.
2.
In the form that appears, fill in the
information, then click the "Download Statistics101" button.
3.
Click "Save" to save the installer file
in a convenient location on your hard drive.
4.
Go to the folder where you saved the
installer. Double-click on the file installStatistics101.jar. NOTE: If
double-clicking does not
launch the installer, then your machine probably does not have Java
installed. Click on the Java button to download and install the Java
Runtime Environment.
 5.
Follow the installer's prompts. Remember
where you install the file so you can make a shortcut to it later (the
installer currently creates shortcuts only for Windows
systems).
6.
To run the Statistics101 program,
double-click on the file Statistics101.jar or the
shortcut to
it that you made in the previous step.
Microsoft

following:

during
installation, "This directory
cannot be written! Please choose another directory!", please
do the
following:
1. Create an
empty folder called
"Statistics101" on your desktop.
2. If you
saved the Statistics101
installer on your computer, start the installer by double-clicking on
the file "installStatistics101.jar" that you downloaded. If you didn't
save it, download it again and in the download dialog choose either
"Open with Java" or "Save File". ("Opening" will download the installer
to a temporary file and automatically run the installer. "Saving" will
download the installer to a location you specify.)
3. Step
through the installer until
you get to where it asks you "Select the installation path:".
4. Click the
"Browse..." button and
find the "Statistics101" folder on your desktop.
5. Select that
folder and click the
"Next" button.
6. Proceed
until the installer
completes the installation.
7. You can
leave the
"Statistics101" folder on your desktop or move it to any place you
prefer, as long as you have full access privileges (read, write,
execute) to that new location.
8. If you want
a shortcut to
Statistics101on your desktop, find the "Statistics101.jar" file in the
"Statistics101" folder. Create a shortcut by right-clicking on the file
and selecting "Create shortcut".
9. Move the
shortcut to your
desktop.
Microsoft
Windows 8 and 10 users,
please read the following:
If, when trying to install the
program you get
the message
"This directory can not
be written! Please choose another directory!",
then either follow the instructions above for Windows 7 or do the
following:
1.
Move the installer to your desktop if it
is not already there.
2.
Start the Task Manager by holding down
Ctrl and Shift keys and pressing and releasing Esc. You can also start
it by searching the Start Screen for "Task Manager".
3.
Click on the File menu and select "Run
new task".
4.
In the text box type "java -jar
c:\users\YOUR_USER_NAME\desktop\installStatistics101.jar" without the
quotes and replacing YOUR_USER_NAME with the name of your user account
on your computer.
5.
Make sure the "Create this task with
administrative privileges." box is checked.
6.
Click OK. The installer will then run
with admin privileges and will be able to write to the restricted
directory.
Linux
Users,
please read the following:
To install Statistics101 under
Linux:
Download the installer from the
website. It
should work with Linux if
you have Java properly installed. Don't let your Archive program try to
extract files from it. Instead, you might have to run the installer in
a terminal like this:
cd
<directory containing the installer>
java
-jar
installStatistics101.jar
Make sure you install the program
into a
directory in which you have
full permissions.
You might need to set the execute
permission on
the Statistics101.jar
file.
Once the program is installed, it
must be run
such that its working
directory is the directory containing the Statistics101.jar file. So,
probably the easiest thing to do is to create a command file containing
commands similar to the following two, perhaps named
"launchStats101":
cd
<directory containing the Statistics101.jar
file>
java
-jar Statistics101.jar
Then, whenever you want to launch
the program,
just invoke the command
file.
Mac
users,
please read the following: If you get a dialog box reporting that "Statistics101.jar" can't be
opened because it is from an unidentified developer,
please see the following link on how to enable it to be opened: http://www.iclarified.com/28180/how-to-open-applications-from-unidentified-developers-in-mac-os-x-mountain-lion
