The Big Picture

Exploring Data in Multiple Platforms

JMP provides a host of statistical discovery platforms to help you explore different aspects of your data. You might start with a simple look at individual variables in histograms and then progress to multivariate and cluster analyses to get a deeper look. Each step of the way, you learn more about your data.

This chapter steps through an analysis of the Cereal.jmp sample data table that is installed with JMP. You learn how to explore the data in the Distribution, Multivariate, and Hierarchical Clustering platforms.
