Hypothesis Testing in R Data Camp

Overview

Context

Hypothesis testing lets you ask questions about your datasets and answer them in a statistically rigorous way. In this Hypothesis Testing in R course at Data Camp, you'll learn how and when to use common tests like t-tests, proportion tests, and chi-square tests.

You'll gain a deep understanding of how they work and the assumptions that underlie them. You'll also learn how different hypothesis tests are related using the ""There is only one test"" framework and use non-parametric tests that let you sidestep the requirements of traditional hypothesis tests.

Learn About T-Tests and Chi-Square Tests

You’ll start by learning why hypothesis testing in R is useful while examining some key concepts as you go. You’ll also learn how t-tests can help you test for differences in means between two groups and how chi-square tests can help you compare observed results with expected results.

Understand the Relationships Between R Hypothesis Tests

As you progress, you’ll discover the relationships between different tests, exploring elements of randomness, independence of observation, and sample sizes.By the time you finish this course, you’ll have a deeper understanding of hypothesis testing in R and when it’s appropriate to use specific tests on your data.
