The research work is about the modern computer technology and their impact on statistical analysis. Some works have been done concerning approaches to the analysis of survey data and modern approaches to the analysis of experimental data. Previously users were often distracted form their direct needs of learning how to process their data, by the more pressing software. There was much to learn because of the varied methods that depended on the types of data. In this “new world’ we hope that users will find both the statistical ideas and the analysis of their work. We hope this guide has indicated when project objectives and data might benefit from these methods despite the considerable challenge in using them unaided. On the major side of findings, conclusion and recommendation, modern computer technology has a great impact on statistical analysis, this is because it makes data easier to process and recommendations were drawn for the improvement of statistical analysis.

CHAPTER ONE: INTRODUCTION

1.0 INTRODUCTION
This is the third guide concerned with the analysis of research data. The ideas apply whatever the method of data collection. They extend the methods described in the basis guides titled Approaches to the Analysis of survey data a modem approaches to the analysis of experimental data.
The previous guides were both concerned with methods of analysis that researchers should be able to handle themselves. They showed that a large proportion of the analysis often only involved descriptive methods. But research studies do normally includes some elements of generalizing form the sampled data to a larger population. This generalization requires the notions of “statistical inference” which are described in the guide confidence and significance key concepts of inferential statistics.
We first distinguish between “the modern approaches” that are outlined in the basic guides and the “modern methods” that we describe here. The former consists mainly of methods that were already available in pre-computer days some were not easy to apply without running into computational difficulties. Current computing software has taken away the strain and the methods can now be used easily.
The methods described in this guide are technically more advanced and are not practical without modern computer software. They are rarely applied in non- statistical research. We describe the most important of these methods and illustrate their uses. Our aim is to permit users to assess whether any of this method would be of valued for their analysis. We concentrate on two areas. These are modern exploratory tools applicable at initial stages of the analysis. Descriptive multivariate techniques, extensions of regression, modeling to generalized linear, models and multi-level modeling techniques.

1.2 STATEMENT OF THE PROBLEM
Here the statement of the problems includes the approaches to the analysis of survey data and analysis of experimental data. This generalization requires the notion of statistical inference which are described in the guide as confidence and significance being the key concepts of inferential statistics.

1.3 RESEARCH QUESTION
This is one of a series of guides for research and support staff involved in natural resources projects. The subject matter here is modern computer Technology and their impact on statistical analysis.

1.4 JUSTIFICATION OF STUDY
This research is important to the readers and statisticians, as it reaches forth compendium on result of the research work carried on the modern methods of analysis.
To the readers who are opportune to read this research work, it will acquaint him/her on the modern methods of analysis.
To the statistician, the findings and recommendations will be a focus point each time they needs the modern methods of analysis in their work.

1.5 SCOPE OF THE STUDY
The research work was gotten from the internet through the statistical good practice guidelines.
The work was studied in order to reduce constraint that may limit the research work and we were able to generalize the entire work.

1.6 OBJECTIVE OF THE STUDY
Consequently upon the identified problems of this study, the research had the basis objective measures of;

1. To know the modern exploratory tools applicable at initial stages of data analysis
2. To know descriptive multivariate data techniques.

1.7 DEFINITION OF TERMS
There are unfamiliar or key terms used in the source of this research that need to be defined. Below are the terms and its definitions.
POPULATION: By extension the term is used for the complete set of object of interest.
SAMPLE: A subset of population usually chosen in such a way that it can be taken to represent the population with represent to some characteristics
SURVEY: When the term population units are referred as the basic elements which constitute the population or sample (if it is ample units) and form information can be obtained.
