New Free Course: Statistical Inference with swirl

The DataCamp team is excited to announce another course using swirl. This free course adapts the Statistical Inference curriculum from swirl to the interactive DataCamp in-browser interface. Log-on and get started! 

This course begins with an introduction to probability, then moves on to expected values and variance. Exercises on confidence intervals highlight statistical testing procedures and exercises on power and sampling techniques finish off the course. This course is a unique opportunity to learn conceptual building blocks of data science while utilizing the interactive in-browser interface and the R syntax. Together with the team behind swirl, we want to make it fun and easy to learn R programming and data science.

The tutorial will show you how to:

• Use theories of probability to solve problems.
• Identify expected values and calculate variance.
• Understand and execute statistical tests like a t-test and other hypothesis tests.
• Calculate statistical power and approach sampling to control variance.
