increase their skills in the use of statistical analysis to support

descriptiveanalytical techniques to more advanced techniques such as
linear regression and forecasting. Advanced projects cover inferential
statistics for continuous variables (t-Test) and categorical variables
(chi-square), as well as A/B testing. The manual ends with techniques to
deal with the analysis of text data and tools to manage the analysis of
large data sets (Big Data) using Excel. Includes companion files with
solution spreadsheets, sample files, data sets, etc. from the book.
