Statistics is an important field of math that is used to analyze, interpret, and predict outcomes from data. Descriptive statistics will teach you the basic concepts used to describe data. This is a great beginner course for those interested in Data Science, Economics, Psychology, Machine Learning, Sports analytics and just about any other field. Students will learn the following concepts: the difference between Descriptive and Inferential statistics, central tendency, measures of variability, measures of dispersion, skewness, kurtosis, range, standard deviation, mean, median, mode, variance, and normal distribution. Descriptive statistics can be useful for two purposes: 1) to provide basic information about variables in a dataset and 2) to highlight potential relationships between variables.
