Abstract

“Statistics is the grammar of Science”, a well-known quote by Karl Pearson who was a prominent British mathematician and statistician and was famously known for Pearson's r (Pearson correlation coefficient), Pearson distribution and Pearson's chi-squared test. Pearson emphasizes the importance of statistics which is the field of learning from data, and the important tool we use to convert raw data into reliable, relevant, and useful information. Due to the rapidly and tremendously increasing volume and complexity of data and information nowadays, the role of statistics in our lives becomes more crucial.
