Objective

Statistical Methods:

You can calculate basic statistics with computer. You learn how to make a regression model with two variables and find out whether there is any connection between these variables. In estimation theory you'll make confidence intervals and we'll show sampling theory by taking various size samples with computer. In testing theory you learn parametric tests like Student's t-tests and classical analysis of variance.

Optimization:

You know basic concepts and meaning of geometrical solution. With optimization program you'll find out optimal point for different kind of problems.
