In data analysis and statistics is to estimate the central tendency (like mean) and variability (like standard deviation) of a dataset. This tutorial will introduce you to some basic estimations in NumPy.
First, you'll need NumPy:
pip install numpy
Then, in your Python environment:
import numpy as np
For this tutorial, we'll use a random dataset:
# Generate 1000 random samples from a normal distribution with mean=50 and standard deviation=10 data = np.random.normal(50, 10, 1000)
Mean:
The mean gives the average value.
mean_val = np.mean(data) print(f"Mean: {mean_val:.2f}")
Median:
The median provides the middle value, useful especially when the data contains outliers.
median_val = np.median(data) print(f"Median: {median_val:.2f}")
Standard Deviation:
Standard deviation gives an estimate of the amount of variation or dispersion of the dataset.
std_dev = np.std(data) print(f"Standard Deviation: {std_dev:.2f}")
Variance:
Variance is the average of the squared differences from the mean.
variance = np.var(data) print(f"Variance: {variance:.2f}")
Skewness:
While NumPy doesn't directly offer skewness, you can use SciPy for it. Skewness measures the asymmetry of the probability distribution.
from scipy.stats import skew skewness = skew(data) print(f"Skewness: {skewness:.2f}")
Kurtosis:
Kurtosis measures the "tailedness" of the probability distribution. Again, you'll need SciPy for this.
from scipy.stats import kurtosis kurt = kurtosis(data) print(f"Kurtosis: {kurt:.2f}")
Percentiles give you a value below which a given percentage of observations fall. For instance, the 25th percentile is the value below which 25% of the observations can be found.
twenty_fifth_percentile = np.percentile(data, 25) seventy_fifth_percentile = np.percentile(data, 75) print(f"25th Percentile: {twenty_fifth_percentile:.2f}") print(f"75th Percentile: {seventy_fifth_percentile:.2f}")
Estimating different characteristics of a variable (or dataset) is fundamental in statistics and data analysis. While we've touched upon some basic estimations in this tutorial, there's a vast array of other statistical measures and tests available, especially when you integrate tools like SciPy or Statsmodels.
Estimating variables in NumPy involves calculating statistical measures such as mean, variance, and standard deviation.
