Statistical Analysis with Python
Want to run statistical analyses in Python but not sure which tools to use? This workshop walks you through how to carry out statistical analyses in Python – focused on the coding tasks and not on how to interpret your results. Learn to generate frequency tables and correlation matrices using Pandas, perform regression models (Linear, OLS, and Logistic) with Statsmodels, and export clean, publishable tables for your manuscripts.
