Abstract: 

The present paper is essentially a preliminary report on the author's experience of teaching a course in Data Analysis to students at the Naval Postgraduate School, Monterey, California. The main emphasis in this paper is on the use of graphics packages as a teaching tool, and, in particular, on how these packages can assist the student (and the teacher) to achieve greater insight into both the data analytic and methodological aspects of our discipline.
