The Art of Data Analysis
Opis
With a focus on presenting basic statistical concepts in a friendly and accessible style, this book focuses on the more subjective side of statistics--the art of data analysis. It provides fun, common sense examples that explore statistical concepts and methods and is aimed at helping anyone who has to make decisions based on raw data or compiled results. It also introduces basic concepts like descriptive statistics and regression and addresses important issues that tend to complicate analysis such as skewed distributions and outliers. "Summing Up: Recommended. Lower-division undergraduates, two-year technical program students, and general readers." ( Choice , 1 December 2013)
