Basic Statistics (Module -3) (Using
Python)
Q1) Calculate Skewness, Kurtosis & draw inferences on the following data
a. Cars speed and distance
Sol:- Using Python
skewness(speed) = -0.117509 (Negative Skew)
kurtosis (speed) = -0.50899 (distribution is flat and has thin tails.)
skewness(dist) = 0.80689(Positive Skew) (The right tail is longer; the mass of the distribution
is concentrated on the left of the figure.)
kurtosis (dist)= 0.40505 (distribution is peaked and possess thick tails)
b. Top Speed (SP) and Weight (WT)
Sol:-
skewness(SP) = 1.61145 (Positive Skew) (The right tail is longer; the mass of the distribution
is concentrated on the left of the figure.)
kurtosis(SP)= 2.97732 (distribution is peaked and possess thick tails)
skewness(WT)= -0.61475 (Negative skew)
kurtosis(WT) = 0.950291 (distribution is peaked and possess thick tails)
