I need to make a histogram with width 2 minutes starting at 14 minutes so the first bar is 14.9 to 15.9 minutes. how would I make a histogram on the program NCSS 2007 or Microsoft Excel?

Explanation / Answer

For excel: You need to install the Data Analysis pack, if you don't have that then this would be a good tutorial: http://www.math.kent.edu/~honli/teaching/statistics/Chapter2/Excell_Histogram.html If you already have it then go to "tools" then "data analysis" and choose "histogram" your "bin" would be (i think) 14 16 18 . . etc
