Design structure

Page What it covers
Screening and Modeling the two groups the Create Design menu is divided into, and what each group's designs can estimate
Blocking what a block does to the design and to the ANOVA table
Folding what folding adds, when it is refused, and why an accepted fold doubles the run count
Power and Sample Size Calculation the power dialog, its two formulas, and its limits

Factors and outputs

Page What it covers
Categorical vs. Quantitative the two factor types and what changes between them
Categorical Inputs levels, the reference level, and how a categorical factor enters the model
Types of Outputs the three output types and the engine each one gets
Stacked vs. Table the two replicate layouts, and converting between them

Reading the results

Page What it covers
Covariate Pattern the term the help uses for a set of runs at identical factor settings
The S-Hat Model the second model, for the standard deviation
