Summary
The ability to decide whether group A is different, either better or worse, than group B is an important technique within computational thinking and data science. It is useful in many areas, from medical experiments to sales figures to environmental changes. This Computational Thinking module introduces you to how problems like this can be tackled, first on small datasets, then on a national scale, comparing results to published reports.
Featured Products & Technologies: Wolfram Language
You'll Learn To
- Solve a real problem using the computational thinking process

- Choose and apply real tools to analyse data
- Interpret the results of the analysis and present an opinion based upon evidence
- Appreciate the effect that sample size has on the variation in results
- Use box-and-whisker charts to compare two datasets
