MIDDLE GROUND

Welcome,

    For a long page that's designed for someone with an 8th grade math background, heavy on vocabulary, light on computation, but no counting theory go to A Year of Statistics in an Hour or Two.

    For just the vocabulary from "A Year of Statistics in an Hour or Two" go to Statistics Vocabulary.

    For statistics resources stay on this page, MIDDLE GROUND, the statistics info page.



Computation Resources & Probability in Calc I
  • statsc.xls - a spread sheet that computes means, standard deviations,
        z-scores, and probabilities, expected values
  • stat.xls - a spread sheet completed computes needed for hypothesis tests
     
  • ReimannSums.gsp - Reimann Sums & Boxes - See sheet "cum" for
        p(a < x < b ) graphically and computationally.
