Descriptive statistics summarize and describe data, including frequency, means, modes, and standard deviations. Inferential statistics use sample data to make inferences about a population, allowing predictions and conclusions to be drawn about the target population based on a sample. Key aspects of inferential statistics include experiments, probability, defining the population being studied, and sampling from that population.

• Descriptive statistics is a branch of statistics devoted to the organization, summarization and description of data. • Inferential statistics is the branch of statistics concerned with using sample data to make inference about a population. • In inferential statistics predictions are made and conclusions are drawn for the target population based on sample. Descriptive Statistics
• Used to analyze and represent data that have
been previously collected.
• It includes frequency, means, modes, median
scores, and standard deviations. Inferential statistics • Inferential statistics are used to draw conclusions and make predictions based on the descriptions of data. • Important terms to understand it are: • Experiments • Probability • Population • Sampling
