There is a wide variety of free statistical software. Some of it is from governmental or NGO organizations, such as Epi Info[1], from CDC, and IDAMS[2] from UNESCO. Some other software is from smaller or independent organizations or universities, such as Instat[3] or Irristat[4]. The great majority of free statistical software, however, is from individuals. Some of the most commonly used software from individuals include Easyreg[5], MicrOsiris[6], OpenStat[7],
