Statistical Computing using R

(Practical)

CO1: Analyze and apply methods of data input, utilizing built-in functions effectively to perform basic calculations and data manipulation tasks.

CO2: Evaluate and implement various graphical representations of data in R, to effectively visualize and communicate data.

CO3: Explain and apply techniques for the preparation of frequency tables and calculation of measures of central tendency.

CO4: Interpret and compute quartiles, deciles, percentiles, and measures of dispersion enabling effective analysis of the spread of data.

CO5: Apply the concepts of random experiments, discrete distributions, and continuous probability distribution in real-world scenarios.

CO6: Contribute effectively in course-specific interaction.
