EViews is a program for Windows designed to help users work with time series, cross-section or longitudinal data. With the help of this tool, they can efficiently manage your information, perform econometric and statistical analysis, generate forecasts or model simulations, as well as produce high quality graphs and tables for publication or import in other third-party apps like WinMDI.

An object-based interface

At the core of the graphical user interface is the concept of an object. Each one has its own window, menus, procedures and its own view of its data. Since most statistical options are simply alternate perspectives of the object, a simple menu choice from a series window changes the display between a spreadsheet, various graph views, descriptive statistics, as well as tabulations, correlograms and independence tests.

Statistical analysis tools

The software solution supports a wide range of basic statistical analyses, including everything from simple descriptive statistics to parametric and nonparametric hypothesis tests. What is more, you have the ability to visualize the distribution of your data via histograms, theoretical distribution, kernel density, survivor and quantile plots. The latter may be used to compare the distribution of a pair of series or single series against a variety of theoretical distributions.
