SPSS is short for Statistical Package for the Social Sciences, and it's used by various kinds of researchers for complex statistical data analysis.
Im thinking student in need, could be wrong.
SPSS is a package of stuff for Analytic tool users. The thing is powerful and been written over a long time by a lot of contributers for people such as yourself to shine a light in the Board room, "Look how great I am"
The program suite isnt something generally stuck on the like of Pirate Bay and 1337x its clique is somewhat smaller and well defined.
Suggestion. I know in the UK the staudents have access to a limited version of this in College and University for learning about Analytics. Seeing as the whole package is pretty much a addon for MS EXCEL and ACCESS usage, I would be sorely tempted to have a go at doing my own Analytical engine for a given DATA group.
Linking Excel to Access is easy these days with loads of info available on it.
As for the SPSS package I dont know of ANY hacks, work rounds or dodges for the system.
ANALYTICS is a matter of a personal opinion, one mans pro is another mans con in that world.
And as quoted at some point by a sane man "There are LIes, There are Damned Lies and then there are Statistics"
SOrry bud but I feel youd be far better writing your own analytical engine. Just think of the $$$$$$ you could make selling it.
