The KPK Excel Macros

• The textbook authors have written a set of Excel macros

• An Excel macro carries out statistical calculations or constructs a statistical chart

• Since Excel has very few built-in statistical options, these macros were necessary

• These macros are available at the DSCI 2710 website (address in the syllabus) or in Blackboard Learn
