Note: Most of the data files are one long column. Some data files are in multicolumn formats. A few data files contain brief information about its source and/or the names of the variables. Hence, it would be a good idea to look at the file before you use it. The data sets can also be found at the publisher's Web site http://extras.springer.com/.
