統計:建模世界讓您從一開始就進行統計思考,向您展示如何分析數據,然後解決現實世界的問題和練習。
此標誌性的「思考、展示和講述」解決問題方法以及相關範例和數據可幫助您學習處理問題、解決問題和傳達意義。
在第五版中,新合著者 Floyd Bullard 更加強調模擬作為強大的教學工具。
隨附的小程式讓您有機會探索重要的想法,提供更深入的概念深度,幫助您在本課程及其他課程中應用統計知識
Stats: Modeling the World gets you thinking statistically from the start, showing you how to analyze data and then work through real-world problems and exercises. This signature Think, Show, and Tell problem-solving method along with relevant examples and data help you learn to approach a question, solve the problem and communicate meaning.
In the 5th Edition, new co-author Floyd Bullard introduces a greater emphasis on simulations as a powerful pedagogical tool. Accompanying applets give you the opportunity to explore important ideas, providing greater conceptual depth that will prepare you to apply statistical knowledge in this course and beyond.
