Simple Calculations in Excel

- Sum: =SUM(A1:A10) - Adds values.

- Multiply: =A1*A2 - Multiplies two cells.

- Mean: =AVERAGE(A1:A10) - Calculates average.

- Mode: =MODE.SNGL(A1:A10) - Most frequent value.

- Median: =MEDIAN(A1:A10) - Middle value.

25. Descriptive Data Analysis

Summarizes data using mean, median, mode, standard deviation, and visual tools like charts and

graphs.

26. Analysis of Variance (ANOVA)

Compares means of three or more groups to find if differences are statistically significant.

27. Application of t-Test

Compares the means of two groups (e.g., independent or paired samples) to test for significance.

28. Application of Z-Test, F-Test

- Z-Test: Used when population variance is known; for large samples.

- F-Test: Compares variances between two populations.

29. Application of F-Test

Tests if two populations have equal variances (used in ANOVA).

30. Data Processing, Univariate and Bivariate Analysis, Hypothesis Testing

- Data Processing: Cleaning, transforming data.

- Univariate: One variable (mean, mode).


- Bivariate: Two variables (correlation, scatter plot).

- Hypothesis Testing: Tests assumption using sample data.

31. Non-Parametric Test: Chi-Square Test

Tests association between categorical variables or goodness of fit to expected distribution.

32. Correlation and Regression Analysis

- Correlation: Measures relationship strength between variables.

- Regression: Predicts dependent variable from independent ones.

33. Quantitative Estimate & Significance of Correlation Coefficient

- Estimate: r (Pearson's correlation coefficient).

- Significance: t-test used to check if r is statistically significant.

34. Significance of Regression Parameters, Uses of Regression

- Test: t-test on regression coefficients to check influence.

- Uses: Forecasting, decision-making, trend analysis.

36. Non-Parametric Test: Chi-Square Test

Same as 31 - used when assumptions of parametric tests are not met.

37. Correlation and Regression Analysis

Repeated from 32 - analyze relationships and predictions using quantitative methods.

38. Importance of Report Writing

Essential for communicating findings clearly, aiding decision-making and academic contribution.
39. Precautions in Report Writing

- Be clear, concise, and objective.

- Use accurate data.

- Avoid plagiarism.

- Organize logically.
