Statistical Analysis

Silent Features of The Book  :

In this revised edition of this book, many Illustrations and Questions have been included.
Every possible care has been taken to avoid errors of print and principle. Still, we stand apologetic for the errors, if any, having
crept in the book unnoticed. The illustrations and exercises that have been selected from the various Universities Examinations of the last ten years have been given topic-wise graded from easy to difficult. The chapter on Indian Statistics has been revised and updated. We trust the book would meet the requirements of both the teachers and the students who offer English medium.
We would very much appreciate receiving suggestions for improvement to the work from teachers, students, and other readers.
