help capability

Post by decuser »

If someone's asked this before, my apologies - I searched for help, but it's too common a search term :)...

My question is, do you have or do you intend to add a help feature? I realize that the software is fairly intuitive to use, but sometimes, it would be nice to have access to additional information about a test or statistic - for example, when doing independent samples t-test, there are different tests - Student's, Welch's, and Mann-Whitney U. It would be nice to be able to have access to what these are, how they're calculated, and why you'd pick one over another at hand (Equality of variance, non-parametric test, etc). Even summary information would be helpful, if for no other reason, than as a memory crutch.
