Abstract
This chapter makes use of the topics presented in the preceding 21 chapters of this book. We suggest one possible order in which a researcher might investigate tables and review/edit a control file. Certainly, the order of tables will depend on many issues, including the experience of the researcher and the research goals. In addition to detailing the types of tables the authors usually review, the important information provided in each table is explained. The chapter finishes up with a student dialog, Keywords and Phrases, Quick Tips, Data Files, References, and Additional Readings. As in almost all chapters, sample analyses are used to reinforce the chapter topic.

Many of the tables that are provided in Winsteps are actually plots. Also in Winsteps it is possible to plot a range of data very quickly. The following article provides some discussion of the reasons why creating graphical data presentations can be of great use.
