Num command is a Unix tool for World Statistics Day

Hacker News

Today is World Statistics Day - see http://blog.edx.org/edx-celebrates-world-statistics-day/ I'm open-sourcing a statistics tool for the Unix command line. It aims to be easy for novices and is based on awk for portability. Feedback is welcome. https://github.com/numcommand/num Some people have asked to donate money, so I'm experimenting with Kickstarter for the MVP. Constructive criticism is welcome here or directly to me joel@joelparkerhenderson.com. Here's the preview link. https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/joelparkerhenderson/1916466035?token=4cf62177
