R Mechanics
This word refers to how you phrase commands in a coding language
Syntax
When you oversample a portion of a population, the weights should be handled in this way.
Made smaller
This R function family helps you find the percentile of a given point on a distribution or the cumulative probability
p family
Height is often considered this kind of data point
Continuous
This is used to document R code and enables review for later
R-file
The type of issues that would cause a paper to report that smokers were less likely to be hospitalized for COVID.
Berkson's Bias
For this type of distribution the mean would be an ideal measure of centrality
Normal
This distribution often associated with dichotomous outcomes
Binomial
This statistical procedure would be useful in calculating whether or not one truly has a disease given they got a positive screening test result
Bayes Theorem
Hitting <enter> in this part of R will execute the code
Console/Complier
This distribution has a mean of 0 and a sd of 1
Standard Normal
This type of distribution often involves time
Poisson
Summary statistics that describe the "typical" value in a dataset
What are measures of centrality
This function in R will allow you to reproduce randomness with your friends.
set.seed()
Total number of observations/total number of events or whatever you are measuring/counting
This function in R can give you a information about individuals in your dataset in an organized format
table()
This function family return the position on a distribution at which the discrete probability equals a given number
d function family
See Image of Probability Table, this number reflects the chances of seeing 2 events in 6 trials at 10% probability
0.098
When parameters are large enough both poisson and binomial distribution approach this kind of distribution
normal
The type of statistical measure that this problem illuminates: Likelihood that children from higher SES score better on an exam.
conditional probability
