Important: The stats package has been deprecated. Use the superseding package Statistics instead.

The fundamental data structure for the stats package is the statistical list. This is a list containing the following types of items.

Some functions, for example, stats[describe, mode], return unevaluated if their argument is a statistical list that contains non-numeric data.

$\left[1\,3\,6\,\mathrm{missing}\,3\,90\right]\:$

$\left[\mathrm{Weight}\left(3\,2\right)\,1\,6\,90\,\mathrm{missing}\right]\:$

$\left[\mathrm{Weight}\left(0..4\,3\right)\,5..9\,90..94\,\mathrm{missing}\right]\:$

$\left[\sin \left(x\right)\,\mathrm{missing}\,x^3\right]\:$

$\mathrm{stats}\left[\mathrm{describe},\mathrm{mode}\right]\left(\left[1\,1\,\mathrm{missing}\,3\,\mathrm{Weight}\left(2\,4\right)\right]\right)$
