Statistics is the discipline that concerns the collection, organization,

displaying, analysis, interpretation and presentation of data.
2. Probability is a measure quantifying the likelihood that events will occur
3. Bar chart or bar graph is a chart or graph that presents categorical data with
rectangular bars with heights or lengths proportional to the values that they
represent. The bars can be plotted vertically or horizontally.
4. Complement of a subset of a given set is the collection of all elements of the
set that are not elements of the subset.
5. Mean is the he sum of all the values in your data divided by the number of
values (sX/n)
6. Mode is the most frequent value in a data set
7. Median is a data set's middle value.
8. Population: A particular group of subjects being studied.
9. Probability distribution: A way of describing how the probabilities of values of
a random variable vary.
10. Sample is a collection of individuals from a particular population that are
chosen for study, with the intent of saying something about the overall population.
11. Deviation is the difference between the value of one number in a series of
numbers and the average value of all the numbers in the series.
12. Distribution of a statistical data set (or a population) is a listing or
function showing all the possible values (or intervals) of the data and how often
they occur.
13. Line graphs are used to track changes over short and long periods of time
14. Map graph also known as graphical techniques, are information graphics in the
field of statistics used to visualize quantitative data. It is especially designed
to show a particular theme connected with a specific geographic area
15. Pictograph or pictorial representation are shown, how the objects are used to
give information regarding mathematical data.
16. Union of two or more sets is the set that contains all the elements of each of
the sets; an element is in the union if it belongs to at least one of the sets. The
symbol for union is ?
17. Intersection of two or more sets is the set of elements that all the sets have
in common; the elements contained in every one of the sets.
18. Sampling distribution is a probability distribution of a statistic obtained
through a large number of samples drawn from a specific population. The sampling
distribution of a given population is the distribution of frequencies of a range of
different outcomes that could possibly occur for a statistic of a population.
19. Event is a set of outcomes of an experiment
20. Sample space of an experiment or random trial is the set of all possible
outcomes or results of that experiment.
21. Elementary Event is an event that consists of exactly one outcome.
22. Experiment is a controlled study in which the researcher attempts to understand
cause-and-effect relationships
23. Factorial is a mathematical operation in which you multiple the given number by
all of the positive whole numbers less than it.
24. Normal distribution, also known as the Gaussian distribution, is a probability
distribution that is symmetric about the mean, showing that data near the mean are
more frequent in occurrence than data far from the mean. In graph form, normal
distribution will appear as a bell curve.
25. Poisson distribution is a statistical distribution that shows how many times an
event is likely to occur within a specified period of time. It is used for
independent events which occur at a constant rate within a given interval of time.
26. Sample survey is a process for collecting data on a sample of observations
which are selected from the population of interest using a probability-based sample
design.
27. Accuracy refers to closeness of the measurements to a specific value
28. Precision refers to the closeness of the measurements to each other.
29. Parameter is a numerical property of a population, such as its mean.
30. Permutation of a set is an arrangement of the elements of the set in some
order.
