3D Hist
Making a 3D histogram in Excel is not easy. Here's one way to do it. First, put the two variables side
by side, sort by first, then by second.
Use the IF statement
=IF(AND(A16=A17,B16=B17),2,1)
to determine if observation is repeated. If not, it is "1"; if it is, use another IF to see how often and to
put out it's value.
=IF(C65 > 1,IF(AND(A65=A67,B65=B67),3,2),0)
Paste special: values.
Delete superfluous rows and colums as needed. Scroll right for more -->

Sum of Freq
Once you have the Freq of each coordinate, you can use the
Pivot Table (see chapter 3) to put the data in a form for
charting.
Execute Pivot Table, drag var1 into column, var2 into row, and
freq into the middle. After the Pivot Table is complete, use
Group and Hide Detail to form "bins" for a better picture.
Then make a chart.
Double click on the chart and enhance/rotate as needed.

This sheet contains data on Nomimal GDP and Money Stock for the United States from 1959 to 1996.
The Velocity of Money is calculated by dividing NomGDP by the Money Stock.
Create scatter diagrams of Velocity over time and LN Velocity over time from 1959 to 1981 AND 1959 to 1996. Report the corr
For which cases is the correlation coefficient a good descriptor of the data?
For which cases is the correlation coefficient a poor descriptor of the data? Why?

Problems
SD IMR
1. Open the workbook IMRGDP.xls. Find out what's being
graphed in the scatter diagram, reproduced on the right.
Explain why the summary statistics, average IMR, average
GDP, and the correlation coefficient taken together don't tell the
whole story.
2. Change cell B16 in the Computing r sheet (you need to click
the Computing r button in the Corr sheet first) in this workbook
to some very large value (1000) and look at how the table
changes. If necessary, hit F9 or Ctrl-= to make the sheet
recompute. What intuition does this give you as to why r can
never be less than - 1 or more than 1?
3. Give an example of two variables which have some
correlation but in which one variable does not cause the other
variable. You don't need actual data, just a plausible case.
Notes on Patterns Sheet
You can alter the randomness of the "Nonlinear, Random"
option by changing the "nonlinear" parameter. Make it bigger in
absolute value and you get more noise.
You can change the shape of both the nonlinear, deterministic
and nonlinear, random options by changing the free parameter.
