Statistical methods and calculation skills

This book covers Statistical methods and Calculations skills. Statistical methods cover collection of data, descriptive methods and inferential methods of analysis. Calculation skills cover elementary calculations, percentages and ratios, equations, graphs and interest calculation. The elementary calculations include basic calculations such as exponents, decimals, scientific notation, logarithms and rounding. Students with no mathematics background can learn how to do basic calculations before concentrating on the statistical applications. For some courses calculations such as interest, future values of investments, graphs and ratios form part of the core module and are also covered in this module.
