non parametric statistics

Analyse-it for Microsoft Excel provides 17 non parametric statistical tests for Microsoft Excel.  Non parametric tests are useful in cases where the stringent requirements of a parametric test cannot be met, or where the data analysed is not continuous.  For example, ordinal or nominal categorical data can only be analysed using non parametric statistics.
