Mathematical Statistics and Data Analysis  (English, Paperback, Rice John)

Mathematical Statistics and Data Analysis is a comprehensive book for undergraduates studying a course in statistics. The book discusses the fundamental theories of statistics, explaining how data in a large population can be summarized efficiently. The book explains what is the true meaning of an average of a sample, and explains how the median is a better idea of the population. Readers will learn how to test data for sufficiency before trying to analyse it, and they will be empowered about various distributions which are used to summarize data. In addition, the book explains how to analyse data, and how to use the fundamentals of mathematics to summarize a large population and its variation.
