Module-03-Assignment-using Python

This document discusses using Python to calculate measures of skewness and kurtosis for different datasets. For a dataset of car speed and distance, the skewness shows a negative skew for speed and positive skew for distance, while kurtosis indicates a flat distribution with thin tails for speed and a peaked distribution with thick tails for distance. For a dataset of top speed and weight, top speed has a positive skew and is peaked with thick tails, while weight has a negative skew and is peaked with thick tails.

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)
