Learning outcomes
The goal of the course is to introduce theoretical basis of descriptive statistics and probability, in order to solve the problem of modelling actual phenomena by using stochastic methods, especially applied to Statistics.
Program
Descriptive statistics. Means, median, quantiles.
Variance and other statistics to measure the variability of a distribution.
Simmetry: Skewness of Pearson.
Independence test in crossed tables.
Linear Regression.
Introduction to probability theory: historical roots, three kinds of definition. Revision of set theory. Axiomatic definition of probability: outcomes, random experiments, sample space. Conditional probability: total probability theorem, law of compound probabilities.
Random variables, discrete density function and cumulative distribution function. Mean, variance and n-th moment of random variables. Models of discrete distributions: Bernoulli distribution, uniform distribution, binomial distribution, geometric distribution, hyper-geometric distribution, Poisson distribution. Examples of continuous distributions: exponential distribution, Gaussian distribution. Characteristic function and (moment) generating function.
Inferential statistics: parameters estimation and statistical hypothesis testing.

Examination Methods
Written and computer exam by using the R programming language.
The exam is divided into two parts: a theory module (20 points) and a lab module (10 points), to be held together.
It is forbidden to use textbooks, manuals or notes during the exam.
Students may use a scientific calculator and refer to a formulary delivered by teacher together with the exam paper.
