Beginning with an explanation of the two major parts of calculus - differentiation and integration - Gudmund R Iversen illustrates how calculus is used in statistics: to distinguish between the mean and the median; to derive the least squares formulas for regression co-efficients; to find values of parameters from theoretical distributions; and to find a statistical p-value when using one of the continuous test variables such as the t-variable.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Mia Karts","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51908101832992,"sku":"NEW0803971109","price":43.7,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0980\/7426\/3840\/files\/51WA2SedKpL.jpg?v=1782257665","url":"https:\/\/miakarts.com\/products\/calculus-quantitative-applications-in-the-social-sciences-0803971109","provider":"Miakarts Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
