Who this book is for
Professionals in most industries can benefit from the tools in this book. The tools provided are useful primarily at a higher level of inferential analysis, but can be applied to deeper levels depending on the industry in which the practitioner wishes to apply them. The target audiences of this book are:
- Industry professionals with limited statistical or programming knowledge who would like to learn to use data for testing hypotheses they have in their business domain
- Data analysts and scientists who wish to broaden their statistical knowledge and find a set of tools and their implementations for performing various data-oriented tasks
The ground-up approach of this book seeks to provide entry into the knowledge base for a wide audience and therefore should neither discourage novice-level practitioners nor exclude advanced-level practitioners from the benefits of the materials presented.
