In this course, you'll learn to plan, implement, and interpret a hypothesis test in Python. Hypothesis testing is used to address questions about a population based on a subset from that population. For example, A/B testing is a framework for learning about consumer behavior based on a small sample of consumers.

This course assumes some preexisting knowledge of Python, including the NumPy and pandas libraries.
