About this Course
The first lesson in this online course introduces you to the fundamental terminologies of statistics, including probability, distribution, hypotheses, and CLT (Central Limit Theorem), the basic statistics concepts for Data Science. The course addresses the hypothesis used to support or refute the statements for distribution after explaining the Normal distribution with examples. Using the Central Limit Theorem, you will subsequently gain a complete understanding of the Sampling Distribution concept. The instructor concludes by illustrating the theorem with the hypotheses. Enroll in this Statistics course for Data Science to learn the various theories, hypotheses, and theories and earn a certificate of completion.

Course Outline
You will learn what probability means and its concepts in this module through some examples. The instructor will discuss what an experiment is with an example and define and thoroughly explain the formula to determine the likelihood of an event. Later, a diagram will assist you in comprehending the extreme probability values and mutually exclusive events.
This section explains normal distribution for continuous functions and the association between mean, median, and mode in a normal distribution with solved examples and also discusses its properties and practical applications. You will also understand density function and standard distribution with solved example problems.
This section outlines a technique followed in inferential statistics called Hypothesis testing. It highlights confidence intervals, types of errors, specific hypothesis, and types of statistical procedures used.
This section begins by explaining the need for sampling. It discusses the population, sample statistics, population parameters, and sample distribution concepts.
This section begins by highlighting the technique to connect the sample with the population. It describes CLT, its properties, and concepts, like standard deviation, sampling distribution, standard error, and z-score, by formulating to solve for an example problem. It also analyzes various assumptions of the solution of CLT.
