Microdata are "raw values" that require processing and analysis to produce statistics. Microdata do not generally provide meaningful information when viewed directly. Processing requires a working knowledge of statistical software packages such as SPSS, SAS and STATA.

Statistics produced after the processing and analysis of data provide useful and meaningful information. They are published as tables, charts, graphs, maps etc. Students often request help finding statistics or statistical information for papers, reports and presentations.

For a more comprehensive description, see Statistics: Power From Data!
