Statistics for Data Science

Statistics is an absolute must prerequisite for any task in the area of data science. This is also the most feared hindrance for developers to entering in the data science field. This book will start off with simple statistics and then move on to statistical methods that are used in data science algorithms. The R programs for the statistical computations will be clearly explained along with the logic. You will come across various mathematical concepts such as variance, standard deviation, probability, matrix calculations, and more. You will learn only what is required to implement statistics in data science tasks such as data cleaning, mining, and analysis.
