This is an introductory course in descriptive statistics, probability theory, random variables, inferential statistics of one and two populations, and analysis of categorical data which provide the basic statistical concepts and techniques for data analysis. Descriptive statistics provides the techniques for organizing, summarizing and displaying data. Probability theory measures the likelihood of events or phenomenon under conditions of uncertainty. The concept of probability is extended to random variables and probability distributions. Inferential statistics uses sample data to make estimations, decisions and draw conclusions about the population. Parametric and non-parametric procedures are used in making inferences for a single population and in comparing two populations. Statistical methods of analyzing categorical data are used for data that are classified into two or more categories and into two categorical factors.
