Course objectives
Introductory course to educate students in descriptive statistics, theory of probability, random values and probabilistic distributions, including the theory of hypothesis testing.
Learning outcomes
Upon completing this course, students will be able to perform basic computer aided statistical data set analysis in R language, resulting in tables, graphs and numerical characteristics; will understand basic probability concepts; will be able to solve probability tasks related to explained theory (in some cases using statistical software); will be able to generate realizations of selected types random variables using statistical software; has basic knowledge of statistical hypothesis testing, will be able carry out tests in statistical software and interpret the results.
Syllabus

Assessment methods
The weekly class schedule consists of 2 hour lecture and 2 hours of class exercises. Throughout semester, students fill in question sets and solve practical task in R. The examination is written: theory and examples. Evaluation has 2 phases: 1.Filling sets of questions through the semester - 40% points. 2.Final exam - 60%. 50% of points is needed to pass.
