Foundations of Statistics - by Everett Davies (Hardcover)

About the Book

The branch of mathematics dedicated to the collection, analysis, presentation, and organization of data is called statistics. It often involves the design of surveys and experiments for data collection. Key statistical methods include descriptive statistics, which summarizes sample data using measures like mean and standard deviation, and inferential statistics, which draws conclusions from data subject to random variations. Various statistical tests and procedures, such as analysis of variance, chi-squared test, correlation, factor analysis, regression analysis, play crucial roles in data analysis. Moreover, statistics finds application in fields such as machine learning, data mining, and statistical computing. This book explores all the important aspects of statistics in the present day scenario. It elucidates new techniques and their applications in a multidisciplinary approach. It is designed to provide deep insights about the subject to the readers.
