Statistics is the study of data. This course will develop tools for analyzing data from a variety of fields. We follow the process from data gathering (sampling methods and experimental design) to exploratory data analysis (graphs, tables, charts, and summary statistics) to inferential statistics (hypothesis tests and confidence intervals) using simulation and sampling distributions. A key component of the course is the introduction of the statistical language R for analysis and R Markdown for the presentation of statistical analysis. (WCore: QE)
