📊 Introduction to Statistics and Descriptive vs Inferential Statistics
This paragraph introduces the concept of statistics as a branch of mathematics that involves the collection, analysis, interpretation, and presentation of data. It highlights the wide application of statistics in various fields such as business and finance. The paragraph also mentions the origin of statistics, credited to the German philosopher and economist, Gottfried Wilhelm Leibniz, known as the 'father of statistics.' The distinction between descriptive and inferential statistics is briefly explained, with descriptive focusing on summarizing and presenting data, while inferential is concerned with making inferences and predictions about a population based on sample data.
📈 Descriptive Statistics: Measures of Central Tendency, Spread, and Shape
Descriptive statistics is elaborated upon with a focus on summarizing and presenting data meaningfully. It is broken down into measures of central tendency, including mean, median, and mode, with an example provided to calculate each. The mean is calculated by dividing the sum of data by the number of observations, the median is the middle value when data is ordered, and the mode is the most frequently occurring value. Measures of spread, such as range, variance, and standard deviation, are explained to analyze the dispersion of data. The range is the difference between the maximum and minimum values, variance is the average of the squared differences from the mean, and standard deviation is the square root of variance. Lastly, the measure of shape discusses symmetry and modality, explaining symmetric and asymmetric distributions, as well as unimodal, bimodal, and multimodal distributions.
🔍 Inferential Statistics: Confidence Intervals, Hypothesis Testing, and Regression Analysis
The focus shifts to inferential statistics, which involves making inferences and predictions about a population based on sample data. The paragraph outlines three main components of inferential statistics: confidence intervals, hypothesis testing, and regression analysis. It encourages viewers to check out additional videos on these topics available on the presenter's YouTube channel, with a link provided in the description. The paragraph concludes with a call to action for viewers to subscribe, hit the bell for notifications, like, share, and comment on the video.

Hello friends welcome back so in this
short video we'll discuss different
types of Statistics descriptive versus
influential statistics with help of some
relevant examples so please stay tuned
don't go anywhere else just sit back
relax and enjoy this
video so before we Deep dive into what
are different types of Statistics let us
understand the statistics first so
statistics is a branch of mathematics
that deals with collection analysis
interpretation presentation and
organization of data it is used in wide
variety of fields including business
finance science and whatnot it was first
discovered by godfried who is a German
philosopher and Economist who invented
the statistics is also known as the
father of
Statistics so statistics which is
basically a branch of mathematics join
forces of trignometry geometry algebra
calculus number system and athematics
adding the power to analyze the data and
draw a meaningful conclusion make it
essential tune in various
Fields statistics further bifurcate into
descriptive and influential
statistics so let let me briefly touch
about what is descriptive here so
descriptive statistics talks about
summarizing and presenting data in a
meaningful way that is your descriptive
statistics while inferential statistics
is more concerned with making the
inferences and predictions about a
population based on the sample of data I
will touch base more about in the coming
slide but this is the basic between the
descriptive and the inferential
statistics so let's start with
descriptive statistics first so
descriptive statistics is all about
summarizing and presenting data in a
meaningful way it is further broken down
into measure of central tendency measure
of spread where there is variability and
measure of shape let start start with
first the measure of central tendency
which is for the bated into mean median
and mode
here let's assume that we have following
state of data 10 20 30 20 40 20 10 we
need to First calculate the mean so
assuming that we sum this all the data
that we have it comes to 150 number of
observation is 7 uh mean would be 15
divid by 7 so mean comes up to be
21.42%
now let's calculate the median for same
set of data formula is n + 1 / 2 so if
the number of values is odd the median
is the middle value and arrange in the
ascending order that means we need to
arrange the data in ascending order find
the middle value that will be your
median if the number of data set is odd
but if the number of data set is even
the median would be the average of the
two middle values when arranged in the
ascending order so in same case arrange
the data first ascending order if the
number of data set is even find out the
two middle values take average of that
that will be your median in our case the
number of data set was seven when we
arrange in the sending order these are
the values so Med median of these data
set is 20 since the number of values is
odd
here the third under measure of central
tendency is the mode and mode is the
most frequently occurring value so in
this case you have to see the most
frequently oing value is 20 here so our
mode would be 20 this is as simple as
that the next mejor under descriptive is
measure of spread of variability which
AIDS in analyzing how disperse the
distribution is for given set of data
for example the measure of central
tendency that we have just seen may give
a person the average of data in the form
of mean median or mode but it does not
describe how the data set is distributed
within the set for that we have measure
of of SPO
variability it has three components
range variance and standard deviation
let's assume that you have following set
of data we need to First calculate the
range so range is nothing but maximum
value minus the minimum value in this
case it is like 72 - 49 which comes to
23 now let's calculate the variance
which is given by this formula that
summation x i - xar s/ n - 1 where x i
is the individual value xar is the
average of all the values and N is the
number of data points and this formula
is for sample data not for population
for population replace n minus one by n
Only so in this case average comes out
to be
61.3 so we put this value in the formula
49 - 61.3 whole Square so on WE and
divide by 10 - 1 we get variance as 62.2
3 now we need to calculate the standard
deviation which is nothing but the
square root of variance which comes up
to be 7.88 n so that is how you
calculate range variance and standard
deviation the third measure under
descriptive statistics is a measure of
shape that is which has two components
Symmetry and modality for symmetry it is
either symmetric which is the best
example could be the normal distribution
curve which has equal area on both sides
and is symmetric about the main and
about asymmetric which is opposite of
that when which it is not symmetric
about the mean it is either positive
skew or negative skewed so positive
skewed is when the tail is on the right
side of distribution is longer and
flatter tail is on the left side that
means the mean and median will be
greater than the mode here in the
positive skewed for negative skew is
when the tail on the left side of
distribution is longer or flatter than
the tail on the right side that means
the mean and the median will be less
here than the mode that is the uh
symmetry
here next is the modality so modality of
a distribution is determined by the
number of peak it contains so if it is
uni model it has one value that occurs
most frequently that is one Peak if it
is B model it has two values that occurs
frequently two peaks and if it is
multimodal it has to several frequently
occurring values that means more than
two peaks unimodel Bodel and
multimodel so now let's shift our Focus
to inferential statistics which has
three component confidence interval
hypothesis testing and regression
analysis so this branch is more
concerned about making inferences and
production about the population based on
the sample of data so all these videos
