Summary

Statistics is an important field of math that is used to analyze, interpret, and predict outcomes from data. This course will teach students the basic concepts used to describe data. With the knowledge gained in this course, students will be ready to undertake their first very own data analysis using the open source software R, which is rapidly becoming the leading programming language in statistics and data science.
