For example, a data set which has the variables @var{height}, @var{weight}, and
@var{name}, might have the observations:
@example
-188 89 Ahmed
-119 107 Frank
-123 67 Julie
+1881 89.2 Ahmed
+1192 107.01 Frank
+1230 67 Julie

The following sections explain how to define a dataset.
Researchers commonly need to test hypotheses about a set of data.
For example, she might want to test whether one set of data comes from
the same distribution as another,
-or does the mean of a dataset significantly differ from a particular
+or
+whether the mean of a dataset significantly differs from a particular
value.
This section presents just some of the possible tests that PSPP offers.
