Statistics is an important field because it helps us understand the general trends and patterns in a given

data set. Statistics can be used for analyzing data and drawing conclusions from it. It can also be used
for making predictions about future events and behaviors.

There are two types of statistics. One type is called descriptive statistics, which focuses on summarising
data. Another type is called inferential statistics, which focuses on making conclusions about
populations based on samples.

1. Nominal: Gender, Classes, Room Number,Vehicle etc
2. Ordinal : Rank Grade, Rating etc
2. Numeric Variables:
1. Continuous: Height, Weight, etc
2. Discrete: Counts, Marks (score), Number of people etc

the types of absolute measures of dispersion are:
1. Range: It is simply the difference between the maximum value and the minimum value
2. Variance: Deduct the mean from each data in the set, square each of them and add each square and
finally divide them by the total no of values. Variance (σ2) = ∑(X−μ)2/N
3. Standard Deviation: The square root of the variance is known as the standard deviation i.e. S.D. = √σ.
4. Coefficient of Variance: The Standard deviation divided by mean

Statistical inference is a method of making decisions about the parameters of a population,
based on random sampling. It helps to assess the relationship between the dependent and
independent variables. The purpose of statistical inference to estimate the uncertainty or
sample to sample variation.

Hypothesis testing, confidence intervals, regression analysis, analysis of variance


(ANOVA), and chi-square tests are examples of inferential statistics tools.

The components used for making statistical inference are:


• Sample Size
• Variability in the sample
• Size of the observed differences

The t-distribution, also known as the Student's t-distribution, is a type of probability distribution that is similar to the
normal distribution with its bell shape but has heavier tails. It is used for estimating population parameters for small
sample sizes or unknown variances.

The procedure involved in inferential statistics are:
• Begin with a theory
• Create a research hypothesis
• Operationalize the variables
• Recognize the population to which the study results should apply
• Formulate a null hypothesis for this population
• Accumulate a sample from the population and continue the study
• Conduct statistical tests to see if the collected sample properties are adequately different from what
would be expected under the null hypothesis to be able to reject the null hypothesis
