Descrierea cursului

Sampling in Python is the cornerstone of inference statistics and hypothesis testing. It's a powerful skill used in survey analysis and experimental design to draw conclusions without surveying an entire population. In this Sampling in Python course, you’ll discover when to use sampling and how to perform common types of sampling—from simple random sampling to more complex methods like stratified and cluster sampling. Using real-world datasets, including coffee ratings, Spotify songs, and employee attrition, you’ll learn to estimate population statistics and quantify uncertainty in your estimates by generating sampling distributions and bootstrap distributions.

Introduction to Sampling

Learn what sampling is and why it is so powerful. You’ll also learn about the problems caused by convenience sampling and the differences between true randomness and pseudo-randomness.

Sampling and point estimates

Reasons for sampling

Simple sampling with pandas

Simple sampling and calculating with NumPy

Convenience sampling

Are findings from the sample generalizable?

Are these findings generalizable?

Pseudo-random number generation

Generating random numbers

Understanding random seeds

Sampling Distributions

Let’s test your sampling. In this chapter, you’ll discover how to quantify the accuracy of sample statistics using relative errors, and measure variation in your estimates by generating sampling distributions.

Relative error of point estimates

Calculating relative errors

Relative error vs. sample size

Creating a sampling distribution

Replicating samples

Replication parameters

Approximate sampling distributions

Exact sampling distribution

Generating an approximate sampling distribution

Exact vs. approximate

Standard errors and the Central Limit Theorem

Population & sampling distribution means

Population & sampling distribution variation

Bootstrap Distributions

You’ll get to grips with resampling to perform bootstrapping and estimate variation in an unknown population. You’ll learn the difference between sampling distributions and bootstrap distributions using resampling.

Introduction to bootstrapping

Principles of bootstrapping

With or without replacement?

Generating a bootstrap distribution

Comparing sampling and bootstrap distributions

Bootstrap statistics and population statistics

Sampling distribution vs. bootstrap distribution

Compare sampling and bootstrap means

Compare sampling and bootstrap standard deviations

Confidence intervals

Confidence interval interpretation

Calculating confidence intervals
