statistics button gives you statistics for selected
as the mean value, the integral, curve fitting, the
value in the selected region, etc.

  • To use it, select a region on the graph containing the data of
    interest. You can make this selection with the mouse by
    clicking and dragging to form a box around the region of
    interest. Once the region is selected, then click the
