Synopsis

Chris Notes! A Set Of Notes For Introductory Statistics is a book I wrote to help students taking a first course in statistics, typically the first year or semester. This is the updated 2nd edition with extra content added! All the important definitions, formulas, and step-by-step procedures are carefully explained, and plenty of examples illustrate all the major concepts. Topics include:
~ Types of data and interpreting graphs
~ Summary statistics, Empirical Rule, box plots, comparing distributions, Z-scores
~ Linear regression, association, relative risk
~ Sampling methods, observational studies, experimental designs, communication
~ Probability and simulation
~ Discrete distributions, binomial distribution, geometric distribution, normal distribution
~ Sampling distribution of sample means and proportions
~ Confidence intervals for population proportion and mean; estimating sample size
~ Hypothesis testing for population proportion and mean, Type I and Type II errors, power, hypothesis testing and confidence intervals for linear regression
~ Hypothesis testing and confidence intervals for matched pairs design, difference of proportions, difference of means
~ Chi-square goodness of fit test, test of independence, test of homogeneity, and population variance
~ F-test for ratio of variances, one-way ANOVA
~ Appendices include important statistical formulas, TI-84 commands, normal table, T table, chi-square table, F tables, and random number table

If you are having trouble understanding the material in your class, buy this book! It's guaranteed to be helpful!
