10.001: Data Visualization and Elementary Statistical Analysis

R. Sureshkumar

Statistics deals with the collection and the analysis of data in the presence of variability. Variability can be caused by the limitations on the resolution of measuring devices or the fluctuations in the conditions under which the measurement is made or the inherent non-constancy of the statistical variable itself or a combination of many of these factors.
