MA1140: DESCRIPTIVE STATISTICS [2 1 0 3]
Introduction of Statistics: Definition, scope, uses and limitations; Types of Data: Qualitative and quantitative data, nominal and
ordinal data, time series data, discrete and continuous data, frequency and non-frequency data; Collection of Data: Collection of
primary and secondary data- its major sources, classification and tabulation of data; Presentation of Data: Frequency distribution
and cumulative frequency distribution, diagrammatic and graphical presentation of data, construction of bar, pie diagram,
histogram, frequency polygon, frequency curve and ogives; Measures of Central Tendency and Location: Arithmetic mean, median,
mode, geometric mean, harmonic mean, partition values-quartiles, deciles, percentiles and their graphical location along with their
properties, applications, merits and demerits; Measures of Dispersion: Characteristics for an ideal measure of dispersion, absolute
and relative measures of dispersion, range, inter quartile range, quartile deviation, coefficient of quartile deviation, mean
deviation, coefficient of mean deviation, standard deviation, coefficient of variation and properties of these measures; Moments,
Skewness and Kurtosis: Moments about mean and about any point and their relationship, effect of change of origin and scale,
Sheppard’s correction for moments (without derivation), Charlier’s checks, coefficients of skewness and kurtosis with their
interpretations; Bivariate Data: Scatter diagram, correlation, product moment correlation coefficient and their uses, rank
correlation, concept of multiple correlation and partial correlation in case of three variables, regression analysis.
