Best library for basic stats

Is there any decent library for basic stats? I am just looking for the
basics, like quartiles, median, standard deviation, mean, min, max,
regression, etc.

I was going to use SciPy, but I use Python 2.4, and it seems to be
supported primarily for 2.3...

What other statistical packages have any level of public support at
this point?

thanks

I would definitely look at SciPy. It works fine with Python 2.4. The
new scipy_core has basic stats (mean, min, max, standard deviation)
built in as methods to the array object.

A new scipy_core release will be made in a few days. But, you can get
started with the release already available. Look for the download link
at http://numeric.scipy.org

For *much* more stats look at full scipy (you can just check out the
stats sub-package if you want). The full scipy can be checked out of
SVN anonymously (or browsed through the web) at

http://svn.scipy.org/svn/scipy/trunk

Hey, I've never used PHP before. I was wondering if it is possible to use PHP to generate web stats. My web host's stats aren't very good. So I want to generate some custom stats for myself. At a minimum, I want a log of the IP, referrer, environment variables, time stamp, etc., and dump it into a comma delimited text file that I can import into access or Excel. I don't need to generate gifs with PHP. Just need the raw data. Can...

http://www.JavascriptToolbox.com/bestpractices/ I started writing this up as a guide for some people who were looking for general tips on how to do things the 'right way' with Javascript. Their code was littered with document.all and eval, for example, and I wanted to create a practical list of best practices that they could easily put to use. The above URL is version 1.0 (draft) that resulted. IMO, it is not a replacement for the FAQ,...
