Doing Clinical Research: Biostatistics with the Wolfram Language
This course aims to empower you to do statistical tests, ready for incorporation into your dissertations, research papers, and presentations. The ability to summarize data, create plots and charts, and to do the statistical tests that you commonly see in the literature is a powerful skill indeed.
There are powerful tools readily available to achieve these goals. None are quite as easy to learn, yet as powerful to use, as the Wolfram Language. Knowledge is literally built into the language. With its well-structured and consistent approach to creating code, you will become an expert in no time.
This course follows the approach of learning statistical analysis through the use of a computer language. It requires no prior knowledge of coding. An exciting journey awaits. If you want even more, there are optional Honors lessons on machine learning that cover the support in the Wolfram Language for deep learning.
