Examples for

Statistics

Statistics is the branch of mathematics involved in the collection, analysis and exposition of data. Given a set of data, Wolfram|Alpha is instantaneously able to compute all manner of descriptive and inferential statistical properties and to produce regression analyses and equation fitting. Wolfram|Alpha's broad computational knowledge of statistical methods allows you to analyze, interpret and visualize your data quickly and accurately.
