Mastering Statistical Distributions In Excel The Excel Statistical Master

160 pages of complete, simple, step-by-step lessons in how solve problems in Excel with all eight of the most popular statistical distributions and how to create interactive graphs of each of them. Loaded with solved problems in Excel for each distribution, you will completely master and understand every aspect of the eight most widely-used distributions and how to use Excel to solve a number of different real-world, graduate-level problems for each distribution. These distributions include the Normal Distribution, the t Distribution, the Binomial Distribution, the Chi-Square Distribution, the Poisson Distribution, the Weibull Distribution, the Exponential Distribution, and the Hypergeometric Distribution. Special additional sections and emphasis in the book are placed on the Normal Distribution, the t Distribution, and the Binomial Distribution because these are the most widely-used of all distributions. This book also provides clear and thorough instructions about how to create interactive graphs in Excel of these eight most popular statistical distributions. You will learn to make interactive graphs in Excel of both the PDF and CDF (Probability Density Function and Cumulative Distribution Function) for most of these statistical distributions. The interactive Excel graphs that you will soon be able to construct will allow you to vary each and every one of the distribution's parameters right on the spreadsheet and then watch the distribution's Excel graph instantaneously change shape as a result of the new parameters that you just entered. You will become an expert in graphing statistical distributions in Excel. You will also become an expert at the distributions themselves. This book is loaded with completed problems and screenshots in Excel of all eight of the major statistical distributions. The instructions are clear and easy-to-follow but at the graduate level. Nothing but simple explanations all taught in small-bite-size lessons. The emphasis is on problem solving, not on useless, complicated, hard-to-apply theory that fills many statistics course. If you are currently taking a difficult graduate-level statistics course that covers statistical distributions in detail, you will find this manual to be an outstanding course supplement that will explain statistical distributions much more clearly than your textbook does. Every lesson uses Excel. You'll be glad to know that you'll never have to look up anything on statistical charts ever again. The easy-to-follow statistical distributions problem-solving frameworks in this manual can be cleanly and swiftly duplicated in the real world. If you are a business manager, you will really appreciate how easily and clearly this manual will show you how you can statistical distributions in Excel to solve a wide variety of difficult problems on your job. You already know Excel so no new software is necessary. You don't need SPSS, SAS, SyStat, or Minitab. All of those are expensive, require lots of user training, and expect the user to be an expert statistician right from the start. Not Excel nor this book. This manual achieves two goals: teaching graduate-level statistical distribution frameworks in an easy-to-understand, real-world, practical way and then showing how to implement all of it in Excel. This manual will make you an Excel Statistical Master of the most important statistical distributions.
