Publisher Description: There are countless blogs, courses, and tutorials out there that explain statistical concepts, but only a book can provide a complete roadmap to understanding statistics. Textbooks, however, tend to focus on theory and mathematical proofs, rather than practical or applied statistics. Data Science in Layman's Terms: Statistics strikes a balance between an easy-reading tutorial, and a theory intensive textbook. It offers a complete roadmap for understanding statistics. The concepts in this book are first explained in plain English, and are then supported by visuals and equations. The material is arranged linearly from the simple ideas presented in the first few chapters to the complex ideas presented in later chapters. Each chapter builds upon the information from previous chapters. Every chapter contains code that shows how to implement the concepts, in both R and Python. |
