Thurs Sep 100 - Statistics Lecture Notes

• questions
• Run over standard deviation with an example.
  Discuss difference between sigma and s. Discuss what this describes about the population/sample under consideration.
• Define z-score - (x-Mean)/sigma; do an example and discuss what its for.
• Show an example of doing some work with a spreadsheet: putting things in a table, saving as .csv, making a plot (pie, bargraph, histogram) of some entries, and finding statistics. (In my version of Excel the Statistics functions need to be loaded first; there's a menu command that does that.)
• Show an example of finding statistics with a hand held calculator.
• Talk about how to use Mathematica;
  see my MathematicaStatsPrimer notes.
• Long winded dice example;
  see my Dice Statistics notes.
