9. Intermediate Statistics with Python
Overview
In this chapter, we will progress through to some intermediate statistical concepts. We will learn what the law of large numbers tells us about the value of the sample mean as a sample gets larger.
By the end of this chapter, you will be able to apply the central limit theorem to describe the distribution of the sample mean, create confidence intervals to describe the possible value of the average with some degree of confidence, use hypothesis testing to evaluate conclusions based on the evidence that our sample provides, and use regression equations to analyze data.
Introduction
In previous chapters, we have described and explored data using descriptive statistics and visual techniques. ...
