Script Versions of our Practicals

Our tutorials and other guides are usually in 2 forms.

1. There is a video
2. There is a practice guide

We are starting the process of getting a third form of these guides, namely as scripts. We like this new form to complement the two existing forms.

• After opening R-Instat, go to Import from Library from the start screen or File> Import from library.
• Click on Load from Instat collection then Browse.

• In the directory open the Scripts folder.

• Select the script you want to use and click Open.

• This is now open in R-Instat where you can now run it.

They should run block-by block easily and we suggest that is pretty quick. 

It can't replace using the dialogs, because they might have changed from the saved script.

We have also liked the role played by the Comments feature in each dialog. Usually it becomes a comment in the output and that should help, if we make the comments useful - i.e. don't always ignore it, so you get the default.

Now we find, similarly, it becomes a comment in the script, once you press To Script! Nice. It is good to have well commented scripts in general.
