Official admission/course page checked on 25 October 2026; it lists Fall 2026 and Winter 2027. The current instructor’s complete plan is not verified.
Across this collection: 140 distinct original families and 420 parameter instances. Courses share topic banks; translations and shared mappings are not extra questions.
Supported learning objectives
Descriptive statistics
Calculate means, medians and weighted summaries.
Variance and standard deviation
Distinguish sample and population denominators and scale changes.
Probability
Use complements, independence and conditional probability.
Distributions
Use binomial and normal models under stated assumptions.
Sampling and standard error
Calculate standard errors and sample-size effects.
Confidence intervals for a mean
Calculate known-sigma z intervals; critical values are supplied.
Hypothesis tests for a mean
Calculate a known-sigma z statistic, p-value decision or critical boundary.
Two independent means
Compare independent means with known population standard deviations.
Proportions
Estimate a proportion and calculate a standard error or z interval.
Correlation and regression
Use a supplied least-squares line and interpret residuals and r².
One-sample and paired t
Use sample SD for a one-sample or paired t statistic, degrees of freedom and a margin with supplied t critical value.
Chi-square counts
Compute a simple goodness-of-fit statistic, an expected cell, table degrees of freedom and a decision from a supplied p-value.
What is not covered
Computational foundations only. Graphs, experimental design, software labs, ANOVA, two-sample t/Welch and regression inference are not covered. Normal/z cases explicitly assume known population SD; t exercises cover one sample and paired differences with supplied critical values.
An original worked example
Find the mean of 2, 4, 6, 8.
Worked solution
Answer: 5
- The total is 20.
- Mean=20/4=5.
