This course introduces correlation and regression, which are used to quantify the strength of the relationship between variables and to compute the slope and intercept of the regression line.
It explores two applications of these methods, using correlated measurements to make informed guesses for measurements that are not available, and making predictions for future events. Datasets used in these lessons include weights and other measurements from penguins and a time series of annual average temperatures. Later lesson explore nonlinear relationships and Simpson's paradox.
