It is one of the new additions to Version 17 to help visualize large amounts of data. Three formats are available: 1. A three-dimensional histogram. 2. A bivariate normal density function fitted to the data. 3. A nonparametric density function estimate. The Statlet is very useful for detecting important features of the data such as correlation, outliers, and multiple modes.   See the *Bivariate Density Statlet* in action!
