Textbook (Hardcover - New Edition)
Textbook Information
Introductory Statistics and Random Phenomena integrates traditional statistical data analysis with new computational experimentation capabilities and concepts of algorithmic complexity and chaotic behavior in nonlinear dynamic systems. This is the first advanced text/reference to bring together such a comprehensive variety of tools for the study of random phenomena occurring in engineering and the natural, life, and social sciences. This is an excellent classroom tool and self-study guide. This new text/reference is an excellent resource for all applied statisticians, engineers, and scientists who need to use modern statistical analysis methods to investigate and model their data.
Integrates traditional statistical data analysis with new computational experimentation capabilities and concepts of algorithmic complexity and chaotic behavior in nonlinear dynamic systems, offering tools for the study of random phenomena occurring in engineering and the natural, life, and social sciences. Each chapter presents experiments, exercises, and projects using the software packages. Large and original real-life data sets are introduced and analyzed as a model for independent study. Includes brief tutorials on using programs. Intended as a text for an introductory level statistics course. Prerequisites include calculus and basic computer programming.
