2 Features Summary

The examples included in this training guide have been designed to introduce you to the features available in Weibull++ Version 6. This section presents a brief summaryof these features. If you are already familiar with Weibull++'s features, you can proceed to Chapter 3, First Steps.

2.1 Intuitive Work Environment
ReliaSoft's Weibull++ 6 builds upon the strength of its predecessors and takes a quantum leap forward in features, power and flexibility to deliver the new standard in life data analysis. Weibull++ 6's interface is an intelligent, flexible andcompletely integrated work center designed around the Data Folio, which is similar to Excel Worksheets and Quattro Pro Sheets. Within the Data Folio, you can enter, edit and manipulate data, create plots and perform analyses. Each Data Folio can contain up to 256 data sheets with over 16,000 data rows per sheet and can easily interface with other Microsoft Windows applications. Weibull++ includes allthe tools and options you will need for life data analysis and provides support for all major life data types. You can easily analyze data from all censoring schemes (i.e. complete, right censored or suspended, left censored, interval censored and multiply censored data) and enter the data individually or in groups of observations.

2.2 Advanced Features
Weibull++ 6 offers four new utilitiesthat let you perform even more advanced analyses on your data. These utilities perform degradation analysis, warranty analysis, non-parametric analysis and analysis of variance. Each utility can be saved with the Data Folio so you can view and alter the data at any time and easily share your analysis with colleagues--all included in a single file.
