Croxton and Cowden defines statistics as the science of collection presentation analysis andinterpretation of numerical data Progressively the Statistics subject come to be more and more popular and its application hasbecome more extensive Now almost there is no field of human activity where statistics are not usedNowadays it is used by economists businessmen scientists administrators etc To be more preciseabout the importance of statistics in our life lets discuss some astonishing reasons that we haveoverheard on several occasions

1 Everyone lookout for weather forecasting Have you ever thought how do you acquire thatinformation There are some computer models constructed on the basis of statistical conceptsThese computer models relate past weather with the present weather and predict future weather

2 Statistics frequently used by the researchers They use their statistical skills to collect therelevant data Otherwise it results in a loss of money time and data

3 What do you understand by insurance Everyone has some kind of insurance whether it ismedical home or any other insurance Several businesses use statistical models based on anindividual application to calculate the risk of giving insurance Life tables are indispensable for thesolution of all questions relating to the duration of human life 4 Statistic plays significant role in financial market Statistics are the key of how traders andbusinessmen invest and make money

5 Statistics play a big role in the medical field For testing the efficacy of a manufacturing druginjection or medicine for controlling curing specific ailments most of the applications of medicalfields lies in using the tests of significance (more precisely studentrsquos t-test) The testing of theeffectiveness of a medicine by the manufacturing concern is a must since only after theeffectiveness of the medicine is proven by the sound statistical techniques that it will venture tomanufacture it on a large scale and bring it out in the market By statistical techniques (t and Fsignificance tests) comparative study of different medicines can also be made

(18)

6 In industry Statistical techniques are used in quality testing Companies manufacture manyproducts on a daily basis and every company make sure that they sell the best quality items Butcompanies cannot test all the products so they use sampling techniques which are a very importantaspect of statistical theory 7 We make variety of predictions in daily life For examples we keep the alarm for the morningwhen we donrsquot know that we will be alive in the morning or not Here we use statistics basics to makepredictions

8 Using statistics concepts doctors predict disease Suppose a survey shows that 75-80people have cancer and not able to find the reason Where the statistics is involved there you canhave a better idea on how the cancer may affect your body

9 News reporter makes a prediction of winner for elections based on political campaigns Herestatistics play a very important role to find out who will form the government 10 Statistics data allow us to collect the information around the world The internet is a devisewhich help us to collect the information The fundamental behind the internet is based on statisticsand mathematics concepts 11 Not only in peace times but in war times also statistics can be used very effectively It ispractically not possible to face a war without the factual data concerning the military strength of theenemy in terms of manpower military tanks war aeroplanes missiles ammunition etc

BIOSTATISTICS is the application of statisticalmethods in studies in biology andencompasses the design of experiments thecollection of data from them and the analysisand interpretation of data The data comes froma wide range of sources including genomicstudies experiments with cells and organismsand clinical trials Biostatistics is the applicationof statistical principles to questions andproblems in medicine public health or biologyOne can imagine that it might be of interest tocharacterize a given population with respect tothe proportion who has asthma and it wouldalso be important to estimate the magnitude ofthese problems over time or perhaps in differentlocations Statistics is a science of compilingclassifying and tabulating numerical data andexpressing the results in a mathematical andgraphical form whereas biostatistics is thebranch of statistics concerned with themathematical facts and data related to biologicalevents

Francis Galton created the statistical conceptcorrelation Sir Galton for the first time usedstatistical tools to study differences amonghuman population He also invented the use ofquestionnaires surveys for collecting data onhuman communities Biostatistics are the eventand application of statistical method to a goodrange of topic in biology It encompasses theplanning of biological experiments the gatheringand analysis of knowledge from thoseexperiments and therefore the interpretation ofthe results Biostatistics is sometimesdistinguished from the field of biometry basedupon whether applications are in the healthsciences (bio statistics) or in broader biology(biometry example agriculture ecology wildlifebiology) More and more things are nowmeasured quantitatively in medicine and publichealth There is a great deal of inherent variationin most biological processes Public health andmedicine are becoming increasingly quantitative

(20)

It is used to test whether the differencebetween two populations is real or by chanceoccurrence to study the correlation betweenattributes in the same population and toevaluate the achievements of public healthprograms Biostatistics has applications in allthe branches of life sciences such as formapping chromosomes for studying thebehavior of genes in a population and forconduction of drug treatment trails etcBiostatistics deals with data arising frombiomedical research It remains a very activeresearch area with complicated time-to-eventdata and missing data emerging in applicationareas including medicine geneticsneuroscience and engineering Recentadvances in biomedical research have creatednew challenges and opportunities forstatisticians and data scientists For examplebig data analysis precision medicine artificialintelligence causal inference and other newresearch fields have inspired data scientists todevelop modern statistical methods andinnovative inference procedures

As technology progresses the physicianencounters more and more quantitative ratherthan descriptive information In one sensestatistics is the language of assembling andhandling quantitative material Even if onersquosconcern is only with the results of other peoplersquosmanipulation and assemblage of data it isimportant to achieve some understanding of thislanguage in order to interpret their resultsproperly Statistics pervades the medicalliterature As a consequence of the increasinglyquantitative nature of public health and medicineand its reliance on statistical methodology themedical literature is replete with reports in whichstatistical techniques are used extensivelyBiostatistics is used to determine how diseasesdevelop progress and spread

For example biostatisticians use statistics topredict the behavior of an illness like flu It is usedto help predict the mortality rate the symptomsand even the time of year people might get it

(21)

Over 50 years ago there was a subject whichwas unnoticed and mainly focused on the studyand analysis of data Statisticians urgedacademic statistics to transcend its boundariesbeyond the realm of theoretical statistics Morestress was laid on data presentation Datascience is a discipline which is guided bycomputing informatics operation researchmathematics and statistics

Statistics is treated as the most important tool insorting and analysing data It is beneficial ingiving a deeper vision of the data Statisticswidely depends upon experiments and surveysWith the help of descriptive statisticscalculations like mean median etc can bedone on the data On the other hand inferentialstatistics helps in drawing inferences andconclusions from the population Both domainsof statistics play a very important role in DataScience In order to get a structured data andmaking predictions statistical methods and toolsare very essential They are able to carry outmany analytical tasks

Statistical Analysis is the study of surveying agiven set of data and observing patterns andtrends It is used in research fields to createstatistical models for performing certainexperiments on a population

The focus is to gather information from thesmallest quantity of data The experimentsinvolve accurate calculations and therefore giverespective results Statistics forms the base ofData Science It requires optimization of hugedatabases which is achieved with the help ofdifferent statistical tools In todayrsquos data drivenworld Data Science is turning out to be one ofthe most demanded professions Almost all firmsand companies are in search of data scientistsas the data keeps on piling up and the need ofinterpreting analysing and cleaning it is risingThe ultimate aim of Statistics and Data Scienceis to extricate cognizance from large amounts ofdata

Whenever the word lsquobusinessrsquo is heard lsquosalesrsquo isthe word which comes to our mind next and whatexactly assists sales is STATISTICS Donrsquotbelieve me but I am sure after reading the articleyou would all agree to my point too So what doesa businessman do He manufactures and sellsthe goods produced to the public but both ofthese basic functions of the businessman cannotbe transcended without the help of statistics toolssuch as survey statistics driven softwares tocollect and analyse the demand of the customerand to what extent ie the quantity in which it isrequired in order to maximize their total revenueThe graphs and the tables formed ie the statshelp them to know the exact condition of themarket and its inclination so that they could comeout with offers and discounts in order to attractpublic towards their product maximizing theirsales The businessmen who is believed to bevery quick and accurate in decision making is allassisted by statistics at every point fromanalysing their sales profit margins wages of theemployees the improvements required in theproduct the billing counters are all carriedforward with the help of statistical tools Thefinancial resources required for investing in thebusiness are also arranged according to theassistance given by the data analysts Themarketing and advertisement of the products alsoneeds statistics Now you would be thinking how

amp its regular maintenance is all handled bystatistical applications In order to calculate theaverage mean median loss profit and all theother commerce related terms in businessesdealing with large amount of data is all handledby statisticians Statistics also helps inmaintaining employee performancemanagement A manager collects data aboutemployee productivity such as the number oftasks completed or the number of unitsproduced He or she must analyse data to findways in which an employee should improve toachieve maximum productivity Manycompanies also collect data about employeeengagement and happiness on the job whichcan be tracked to not only keep workersmotivated but ensure they dont leave for otherpositions elsewhere This helps in increasingthe efficiency of the employees and also createsa healthy working environment I have listed lotof points to prove the importance of statistics inbusinesses and hope that you will now agree towhat I mentioned in the beginning of the article

Whenever a method of marketing is thought thepercentage of people to get influenced the agegroup to target the kind of offers to be laid downare all done through statistics You might haveheard that now data is the new oil that means lifeis all surrounded with data and for the data andthe demand for its upkeep and analysis the dataanalysts are required and in big organizationswho actually target all age groups and sell allkinds of products on a large scale have a largedatabase not only of the customers but also oftheir n number of employees So an organizationis incomplete without data and where there isdata there is statistics In fact I would say thatan organization isnrsquot an organization if they donot have data and its proper upkeep in such acase the company will surely drain out so thisactually proves how important statistics hasbecome in the business point of view Thebanking sector canrsquot function without statisticsand this banking business forms the backbone ofthe country since all the customers of the bankhave loads of data for a particular bank account

Statistics is the science of learning from dataStatistical knowledge helps an individual to usethe proper methods for collecting data employthe correct analysis and present the resultseffectively Statistical analysis is thus used inalmost all fields to make sense out of the vastamount of data that is available Thus statisticalmethodologies are not only useful in drawingimportant results but also play a significant role inproducing new findings and understanding thework of others One such field which has wideuse of the statistical techniques andmethodologies is the Insurance Sector Insuranceis basically the business of risk as it involves thetransfer of risk from one party to another

The main incoming and outgoing source ofincome in the business of insurance is throughpremiums and claims respectively Manystatistical models are used to model claimsand losses Parameters for these distributionsare estimated using Method of momentMaximum likelihood estimates etc and thenGoodness of fit testis applied to check howwell our distribution fits to the data Timeseries model plays an important role inforecasting future values Statistics is used toanswer the most important questions for theinsurance industry What percentage ofpolicies are expected to payout How muchmoney the company must expect to payout inclaims Different methods of data collectioneither in primary or secondary form are usedto determine the required reserves premiumand future predictions Apart from this manystatistical methods for eg Linear modelmethod which uses regression as the maintool in determining the factors affectingpremiums Loss distribution method in whichhistogram and bar graphs are made tocompare different categories and complexstatistical tools such as Ruin Theory and Run-off triangles are used to develop newproducts absorb and evaluate risk and ruinwhen balancing claims reserves andpremiums Thus statistics plays anirreplaceable role in the life cycle ofinsurance business for both life and non-life insurance

Statistics help in

Measuring the stability of drugs-II) Production of drugs according to demandsIII) Effectiveness of drugsIV) Quality control of drugs V) Marketing of drugs VI) Testing the side effects of the drug with thehelp of data VII) Going through the procedure of approvaland public distribution of drugs

Statistics in developing a drug

A lot of statistics tools are used duringproduction clinical trials and marketing andpublic distribution of drugs-1 Average (mean median and mode) Usedduring experiments like stability testingcombination of chemicals and checking acidity orbasicity of solutions to calculate mean averageresults2 Standard deviation and variance It is ameasure of testing precision Can be used toevaluate precision at various points in a processor to evaluate the precision between two differentmethods of the experiment3 Q test for rejecting data It is used to checkoutliers in data ie to check unusual deviation ina data set to see if it can be statistically rejected

4 Confidence limits It helps in finding theprobability of the true value being within acalculable range It makes use of multiplyingstandard deviation with studentrsquos t-factor thatdetermines the confidence interval of theobservation at the stated confidence level5 t F Chi-square and other tests Helps incomparing the results of two data sets For egside effects of different medication in the samepopulation6 Correlation Helps to detect the relationbetween two attributes of a data for eg howthe effect of a medicine increases or decreasesdue to the change in dosage how increase ordecrease in temperature affects the stability ofcertain medication

Clinical Trials

Clinical trials are research studies that evaluatenew ways to improve treatments and quality oflife for people with disease and in presentscenario global pandemic COVID-19 Resultsfrom Clinical trials help develop

1 New drugsvaccines 2 New diagnostic tools 3 New clinical procedures

Participants volunteer for clinical trials

(28)

In this method of stratified random sampling isused to divide the volunteers into different stratabased on shared attributes or characteristicssuch as gender medical conditions and otherspecifics These stratarsquos are used in differentphases of clinical trials

Clinical trials have 4 phases

Before trial begins volunteers need tounderstand the potential benefits and potentialrisks before participating in clinical trials thatrsquoswhy pre-clinical phase is conducted to test thenew treatment on animals and healthyvolunteers This part comes under descriptivestatistics where we are using the observed(benefits and risks) for further research Phase 1- In this new treatment is tested for thefirst time to know how treatment affects thebody to determine a safe dose range forvaccine and their side effects It involvesrelatively 20-80 volunteers Stats approach-Association analysis is performed to capture thecorrelations between drug therapeuticindications and side-effects In order to achievethis goal we adopted Fishers exact test whichis a widely used approach for measuring thesignificance of the association between twonominal variables For example to test thesignificance of the association between drugtherapeutic indications A and drug side effect B

Phase 2- The study involves how well a newtreatment or combination of treatment goes wellwith certain types of patients It involves up to300 patient volunteers For example out oftotal cancer patients half of the patients areselected randomly and are given cancertreatment along with new vaccine and other halfare given cancer treatment along with standardtreatment of corona virus Now side effects inboth the cases are noted Aim is to determinewhich combination of treatment will have lessside effects Chi- square test is used tocompare the side effects in both the cases Phase 3- In this phase effectiveness of addinga new treatment to the standard treatment isstudied 100-1000 volunteers participate in thisphase Stats approach- Participants arerandomly split into two groups 1st group(treatment group) receives the standardtreatment + new vaccine and 2nd group (controlgroup) receives standard treatment + placebo(a treatment that looks identical to the newtreatment but contains no active ingredient) Inthis phase mean time taken to develop antibodies in both the groups are compared usingZ-test (Test of significance for difference inmeans)

Phase 4- In this phase no volunteers areinvolved researchersrsquo monitor drug safety andeffectiveness It involves optimal usage

gtgt Easy to LearnBeing involved in development for web servicesmobile apps as well as coding Yes it is one ofthe most famous language characteristics Morethan that a low and thus fast learning curve isthe next pre-eminence of Python whencomparing it with older languages on offer

gtgt Well-SupportedHaving the experience of using some tools forfree you probably know that it is a challenge toget decent support but thatrsquos not the case withPython Despite the high simplicity there can besituations when you still need help with PythonBeing in widespread use like in industries oracademic areas Python has a broad array ofhelpful libraries with tons of helpful and supportmaterials The great benefit is that all thelibraries are available at no cost

gtgt ScalabilityThis Pythonrsquos feature is closely connected withthe previous option Comparing with otherlanguages like R Java python is much fasterand more scalable Therefore it is good invarious fields that can solve a wide range ofproblems Thatrsquos why many companies havemigrated to Python

lsquoOnline classrsquo is a term which most of us werenrsquotfamiliar with Before this pandemic we neverthought of getting education at home Covid hasaffected all of our lives In past pursuingeducation meant going to the schoolcollege Butnow the whole scenario has changed Childrenare studying and attending classes from homeJust like there are two sides of a coin onlineclasses also have some advantages anddisadvantages

Starting from the advantages it saves time forboth students and teachers as they donrsquot haveto travel All they have to do is to join throughtheir mobiles or laptops Secondly studentsdonrsquot have to necessarily buy books from theshops like they had to do in offline classesbecause they are given pdfs from which they canstudy Therefore it saves money Third it can beattended from anywhere in the world Unlike inthe offline classes where we had to gather at aparticular place Fourth computer basedpractical can be easily understood as studentscan share their screen with teachers Also it iseasy for teachers to explain a topic with the helpof pictures or animations which can be easilyfound on the internet

Last but not the least Parents can keep an eyeon their children whether they are studyingproperly or not

Apart from advantages it has somedisadvantages too First sitting beside thecomputer or mobile for hours affects the eyesightof both students and teachers Doctors arereporting many cases of eyestrain amongchildren since the online classes have startedSecondly students are becoming lazy as theydonrsquot have to go out of their home Like theproverb lsquoAll work and no play makes Jack a dullboyrsquo is really happening Third students canbunk in the online classes easily As they haveno fear of punishment they learned to disobeyand disrespect teachers Fourth students havebeen given lots of assignments as a result ofwhich most students are copying othersassignments and are not learning anything newFifth it is very difficult to communicate asteachers cannot give attention to each studentLastly it can be concluded that no matter howthe classes are being held a student must bededicated and sincere towards their studiesAfter all onersquos future depends on what they do intheir present

An actuary is a business executive professionally trained in the mathematical sciences Actuariesspecialize in the evaluation of financial riskmdashmost often in the context of life health and casualtyinsurance where they design analyse and refine varied programs to meet the insurance needs ofsociety A growing number of actuaries work in the areas of assetliability management and risk managementSome of these actuaries are employed by investment and consulting firms others are employed byinsurance companies

Actuaries have been called financial architects and social mathematicians because their combinedanalytical and business skills help solve a growing variety of financial and social problems Theactuarial profession is a demanding yet rewarding career choice

In a world bombarded with numerical information informed decisions rely on the ability to separatefact from fiction by applying valid statistical analyses and visualizations Statisticians can providecrucial guidance in determining what information is reliable and which predictions may be trustedThey often help search for clues to the solution of a scientific mystery and sometimes keepinvestigators from being misled by false impressions

Thousands of statisticians work in medicine law agriculture public policy marketing manufacturingengineering and other fields in the social and natural sciences The diversity of applications is anexciting aspect of the field and is one more reason why the demand for well-trained statisticianscontinues to be strong

Contributed by Dr Meenu Goel

The curtain lifts on Bryant Elementary Schools Spring Recorder Recital Ninety third-graders fumble with their instruments take a breath

and blow Their parents braced breathe too

as Hot Crossed Buns emerges a little scattershot -- the Normal Distribution brought to life

By Go Tell Aunt Rhodie the audience

is moved by their sheer pretty-goodness though one kid knocks her music to the floor

and another squeaks to demonstrate

the tail two standard deviations below the mean The curve implies

that somewhere on stage another kid

just played a note so sweet he might shatter Mrs Wedermeyers glasses And if

there are a mother and father who think

that child is theirs may they be forgiven even if the child shining in their eyes

is moving his fingers slightly out of rhythm

even if hes never led the bell curve in his life In consecutive measures of almost unison

its easy to believe these children are musicians

Their parents do so stirred by Ode to Joy they rise to their feet with the final phrase

clapping from the darkened auditorium

at once as one heroically like the parents theyve meant to be

EK NAYA SAFAR

Mubarak ho apko zindgi ka naya safar

Naya hai sheher nai hai dagar

Chut gaye kuch rishte purane

But donrsquot worry yaar mil jayenge naye diwane

Kuch tum jaise khuch tum se alag

So just smile and start a new life

Dosti yaari ko zara side mai rakh ke

Edhar gaur famiye janab

Course toh tumne acha chuna hai

Kuch socha hai ya ese hi liya hai

College mai admission jab hota hai

Toh andar khushi ke fuvare futne lagte hai

Lekin syllabus o dekh kar yeh bhi dagmagane lagte hai

Mana CP paas hai vahi maat ghumte rehna

Varna paper mai cafeacute ki menu sheet hi likhte rehna

Donrsquot take a chill pill coz yaha ki teachers hai thori strict

Just because they want you to be the best

Ab kya kare college ka har din mamuli nahi hota

Aur 9 se 4 sirf parai nahi hoti

Gumo firo esh karo but parna na bhulo

Mana es saal kuch zyada hi speed breakers hai

But the best part is hum sab bhi toh sath hai

PONDERINGAll of humanity is but a set of numbers You and I

are nothing more than a statisticJust think about any decision you had to take

recently No matter your choice you might findyourself ending up only as an infinitesimal

decimal in the final percentage of a statisticianrsquosdiscourse Let me give you an example pertinent

to the world we live in today Say yoursquore arepublican and have to decide whether to wear a

mask or not Naturally your political instinctmight warn you against it However you might

still be inclined to wear one because yoursquoregenuinely scared about what the ldquoliberalsrdquo have

to say about the SARS-COV-2 Now now letrsquos notgo off-topic here I know you might be wondering

what yoursquod do if you were in a Republicanrsquos shoesBut thatrsquos not the point

In the end it seldom matters whether you are arepublican or a liberal especially in situations

like these What matters in the end is if you didgo out without wearing that infuriating

smothering mask And if you contracted thewretched virus because of it If yes hard luck

Yoursquore nothing more than one of the 841 millionpeople who have it Thatrsquos all that people aroundthe world will see Not your gender not your ageand certainly not your political belief Of course

there will be studies about the correlation ofthese factors with the incidence rate of the

infections but thatrsquos another story altogether andnot one possibly as broad as the one we talk

aboutMoreover the correlation must not be

confused with causation Now perhaps thatrsquosa story for another day But think about it thisway whether you go to college or drop out of

high school whether you choose to live ordecide to die no matter the decision no

matter your inclination or choice whetheryou like it or not you will be nothing more

than a statisticIt might sound a bit gloomy to be honestWhen I first thought about it I felt almostinsignificant Like a tiny speck of dust in a

galaxy of stars Alas isnrsquot that all that we arethough

A pale blue dot in an ocean of stars Ourplanet one among millions or perhaps

billions of others All 78 billion of us fightingfor a place in the world knowing full well we

canrsquot all possibly have it It might makeanyone feel overwhelmed but therersquos

something about that that is so challenging itis almost inspiring We all know statistics andwe all know life But the true beauty of life lies

in the ability to defy statistics Only onequestion remains are you up for the

challenge

It wonrsquot be any exaggeration If itrsquos said that tools of statistician are used in almost all fields ofcalculation

Be it research finance sports marketing sales health care or population countingIt is a crucial process behind How we make discoveries in science

Making decisions or claiming predictions It plays a crucial play in all situationsStats is involved everywhere from collection to interpretation From explanation to

presentationStatistics helps avoiding a wide variety of analytical traps By making sure that study follow

apt methods in all aspectsChallenging your own assumptions Or drawing data-based conclusions

Statistics is always there Making things crisp and clear

Donrsquot buy that lottery ticket Donrsquot wish for a fallen wicket

Donrsquot wish to ldquomake itrdquo in a dying world Donrsquot wish for either a boy or a girl

Donrsquot predict vivid sunshine or rain Donrsquot bother to cry or complain

Statistically speaking it may all be in vain If you didnrsquot make it the first time why try

again

And if you donrsquot buy wish try andpredict

Why also bother living the life you claim tohave lived

It always seems impossible until it is done

If it makes you happyit doesnt have to make sense to others

When you cant find the sunshinebe the sunshine

Either you run the day or let the day run you

When you focus on the goodthe good gets better

It takes the same energy to worry as it doesto be positive so use your energy to thinkpositive and positive things will happen

The one thing that doesnt abide by majority rule is a persons conscience

Make happiness a priority and be gentle with yourself in the process

College the best start to unfold lifes beauty

Goodbye to the mistakes weve made remember the laughs weve shared

Will never forget these years

People are capable at anytime in their lives of doing what they dream of

When it rains look for rainbows when its dark look for stars

Believe you can and youre halfway there Fall in love with the process of becoming thevery best version of yourself

Rise above the storm and you will find sunshine

Do not change the path in front of your dreamswhatever happens do not break those dreams in yourmind You will find difficulties on every step but do

not leave the ground just to choose the stars

If people are trying to pull you down then you arealready better than them Just focus on your energies and

May every sunrise bring you hopeMay every sunset bring you peace

If you dont believe in yourself thenno one is going to believe in you So

Believe in Yourself

Be who you are and say what you feelbecause those who mind donrsquot matter and

those who matter donrsquot mind

Success is liking yourself liking what you do and liking how you do it

Happiness is a by-product of an effort to make someone else happy

If you are not willing to risk the unusual you will have to settle for the ordinary

Always keep it clean simple and precise

Hustle until you no longer have to introduce yourself

Dream it Wish it Do it

There are no limits to what you can accomplish except the limits you place

on your own thinking

The greatness of humanity is not in being human but in being humane

You will be exactly as happy as you decide

One thing to learn from the sun is thatwhenever a cloud tries to hinder itslight it finds its own path to shine

Excellence is not achieved - it is aspired to and trekked towards The tougher the trek

the better the views

I think the day we figure out everythingabout our lives is the day we die

Finding your magic can be scary but owning it will be EUPHORIA

An approximate answer to the right problem is worth a good deal more than

an exact answer to an approximate problem

Our greatest weakness lies in giving up The most certain way to succeed is always to try just one more time

The aim is to live happily heal throughevery situation and learn everything new

with every step taken

Croxton and Cowden defines statistics as the science of collection presentation analysis andinterpretation of numerical data Progressively the Statistics subject come to be more and more popular and its application hasbecome more extensive Now almost there is no field of human activity where statistics are not usedNowadays it is used by economists businessmen scientists administrators etc To be more preciseabout the importance of statistics in our life lets discuss some astonishing reasons that we haveoverheard on several occasions

1 Everyone lookout for weather forecasting Have you ever thought how do you acquire thatinformation There are some computer models constructed on the basis of statistical conceptsThese computer models relate past weather with the present weather and predict future weather

2 Statistics frequently used by the researchers They use their statistical skills to collect therelevant data Otherwise it results in a loss of money time and data

3 What do you understand by insurance Everyone has some kind of insurance whether it ismedical home or any other insurance Several businesses use statistical models based on anindividual application to calculate the risk of giving insurance Life tables are indispensable for thesolution of all questions relating to the duration of human life 4 Statistic plays significant role in financial market Statistics are the key of how traders andbusinessmen invest and make money

5 Statistics play a big role in the medical field For testing the efficacy of a manufacturing druginjection or medicine for controlling curing specific ailments most of the applications of medicalfields lies in using the tests of significance (more precisely studentrsquos t-test) The testing of theeffectiveness of a medicine by the manufacturing concern is a must since only after theeffectiveness of the medicine is proven by the sound statistical techniques that it will venture tomanufacture it on a large scale and bring it out in the market By statistical techniques (t and Fsignificance tests) comparative study of different medicines can also be made

(18)

6 In industry Statistical techniques are used in quality testing Companies manufacture manyproducts on a daily basis and every company make sure that they sell the best quality items Butcompanies cannot test all the products so they use sampling techniques which are a very importantaspect of statistical theory 7 We make variety of predictions in daily life For examples we keep the alarm for the morningwhen we donrsquot know that we will be alive in the morning or not Here we use statistics basics to makepredictions

8 Using statistics concepts doctors predict disease Suppose a survey shows that 75-80people have cancer and not able to find the reason Where the statistics is involved there you canhave a better idea on how the cancer may affect your body

9 News reporter makes a prediction of winner for elections based on political campaigns Herestatistics play a very important role to find out who will form the government 10 Statistics data allow us to collect the information around the world The internet is a devisewhich help us to collect the information The fundamental behind the internet is based on statisticsand mathematics concepts 11 Not only in peace times but in war times also statistics can be used very effectively It ispractically not possible to face a war without the factual data concerning the military strength of theenemy in terms of manpower military tanks war aeroplanes missiles ammunition etc

BIOSTATISTICS is the application of statisticalmethods in studies in biology andencompasses the design of experiments thecollection of data from them and the analysisand interpretation of data The data comes froma wide range of sources including genomicstudies experiments with cells and organismsand clinical trials Biostatistics is the applicationof statistical principles to questions andproblems in medicine public health or biologyOne can imagine that it might be of interest tocharacterize a given population with respect tothe proportion who has asthma and it wouldalso be important to estimate the magnitude ofthese problems over time or perhaps in differentlocations Statistics is a science of compilingclassifying and tabulating numerical data andexpressing the results in a mathematical andgraphical form whereas biostatistics is thebranch of statistics concerned with themathematical facts and data related to biologicalevents

Francis Galton created the statistical conceptcorrelation Sir Galton for the first time usedstatistical tools to study differences amonghuman population He also invented the use ofquestionnaires surveys for collecting data onhuman communities Biostatistics are the eventand application of statistical method to a goodrange of topic in biology It encompasses theplanning of biological experiments the gatheringand analysis of knowledge from thoseexperiments and therefore the interpretation ofthe results Biostatistics is sometimesdistinguished from the field of biometry basedupon whether applications are in the healthsciences (bio statistics) or in broader biology(biometry example agriculture ecology wildlifebiology) More and more things are nowmeasured quantitatively in medicine and publichealth There is a great deal of inherent variationin most biological processes Public health andmedicine are becoming increasingly quantitative

(20)

It is used to test whether the differencebetween two populations is real or by chanceoccurrence to study the correlation betweenattributes in the same population and toevaluate the achievements of public healthprograms Biostatistics has applications in allthe branches of life sciences such as formapping chromosomes for studying thebehavior of genes in a population and forconduction of drug treatment trails etcBiostatistics deals with data arising frombiomedical research It remains a very activeresearch area with complicated time-to-eventdata and missing data emerging in applicationareas including medicine geneticsneuroscience and engineering Recentadvances in biomedical research have creatednew challenges and opportunities forstatisticians and data scientists For examplebig data analysis precision medicine artificialintelligence causal inference and other newresearch fields have inspired data scientists todevelop modern statistical methods andinnovative inference procedures

As technology progresses the physicianencounters more and more quantitative ratherthan descriptive information In one sensestatistics is the language of assembling andhandling quantitative material Even if onersquosconcern is only with the results of other peoplersquosmanipulation and assemblage of data it isimportant to achieve some understanding of thislanguage in order to interpret their resultsproperly Statistics pervades the medicalliterature As a consequence of the increasinglyquantitative nature of public health and medicineand its reliance on statistical methodology themedical literature is replete with reports in whichstatistical techniques are used extensivelyBiostatistics is used to determine how diseasesdevelop progress and spread

For example biostatisticians use statistics topredict the behavior of an illness like flu It is usedto help predict the mortality rate the symptomsand even the time of year people might get it

(21)

Over 50 years ago there was a subject whichwas unnoticed and mainly focused on the studyand analysis of data Statisticians urgedacademic statistics to transcend its boundariesbeyond the realm of theoretical statistics Morestress was laid on data presentation Datascience is a discipline which is guided bycomputing informatics operation researchmathematics and statistics

Statistics is treated as the most important tool insorting and analysing data It is beneficial ingiving a deeper vision of the data Statisticswidely depends upon experiments and surveysWith the help of descriptive statisticscalculations like mean median etc can bedone on the data On the other hand inferentialstatistics helps in drawing inferences andconclusions from the population Both domainsof statistics play a very important role in DataScience In order to get a structured data andmaking predictions statistical methods and toolsare very essential They are able to carry outmany analytical tasks

Statistical Analysis is the study of surveying agiven set of data and observing patterns andtrends It is used in research fields to createstatistical models for performing certainexperiments on a population

The focus is to gather information from thesmallest quantity of data The experimentsinvolve accurate calculations and therefore giverespective results Statistics forms the base ofData Science It requires optimization of hugedatabases which is achieved with the help ofdifferent statistical tools In todayrsquos data drivenworld Data Science is turning out to be one ofthe most demanded professions Almost all firmsand companies are in search of data scientistsas the data keeps on piling up and the need ofinterpreting analysing and cleaning it is risingThe ultimate aim of Statistics and Data Scienceis to extricate cognizance from large amounts ofdata

Whenever the word lsquobusinessrsquo is heard lsquosalesrsquo isthe word which comes to our mind next and whatexactly assists sales is STATISTICS Donrsquotbelieve me but I am sure after reading the articleyou would all agree to my point too So what doesa businessman do He manufactures and sellsthe goods produced to the public but both ofthese basic functions of the businessman cannotbe transcended without the help of statistics toolssuch as survey statistics driven softwares tocollect and analyse the demand of the customerand to what extent ie the quantity in which it isrequired in order to maximize their total revenueThe graphs and the tables formed ie the statshelp them to know the exact condition of themarket and its inclination so that they could comeout with offers and discounts in order to attractpublic towards their product maximizing theirsales The businessmen who is believed to bevery quick and accurate in decision making is allassisted by statistics at every point fromanalysing their sales profit margins wages of theemployees the improvements required in theproduct the billing counters are all carriedforward with the help of statistical tools Thefinancial resources required for investing in thebusiness are also arranged according to theassistance given by the data analysts Themarketing and advertisement of the products alsoneeds statistics Now you would be thinking how

amp its regular maintenance is all handled bystatistical applications In order to calculate theaverage mean median loss profit and all theother commerce related terms in businessesdealing with large amount of data is all handledby statisticians Statistics also helps inmaintaining employee performancemanagement A manager collects data aboutemployee productivity such as the number oftasks completed or the number of unitsproduced He or she must analyse data to findways in which an employee should improve toachieve maximum productivity Manycompanies also collect data about employeeengagement and happiness on the job whichcan be tracked to not only keep workersmotivated but ensure they dont leave for otherpositions elsewhere This helps in increasingthe efficiency of the employees and also createsa healthy working environment I have listed lotof points to prove the importance of statistics inbusinesses and hope that you will now agree towhat I mentioned in the beginning of the article

Whenever a method of marketing is thought thepercentage of people to get influenced the agegroup to target the kind of offers to be laid downare all done through statistics You might haveheard that now data is the new oil that means lifeis all surrounded with data and for the data andthe demand for its upkeep and analysis the dataanalysts are required and in big organizationswho actually target all age groups and sell allkinds of products on a large scale have a largedatabase not only of the customers but also oftheir n number of employees So an organizationis incomplete without data and where there isdata there is statistics In fact I would say thatan organization isnrsquot an organization if they donot have data and its proper upkeep in such acase the company will surely drain out so thisactually proves how important statistics hasbecome in the business point of view Thebanking sector canrsquot function without statisticsand this banking business forms the backbone ofthe country since all the customers of the bankhave loads of data for a particular bank account

Statistics is the science of learning from dataStatistical knowledge helps an individual to usethe proper methods for collecting data employthe correct analysis and present the resultseffectively Statistical analysis is thus used inalmost all fields to make sense out of the vastamount of data that is available Thus statisticalmethodologies are not only useful in drawingimportant results but also play a significant role inproducing new findings and understanding thework of others One such field which has wideuse of the statistical techniques andmethodologies is the Insurance Sector Insuranceis basically the business of risk as it involves thetransfer of risk from one party to another

The main incoming and outgoing source ofincome in the business of insurance is throughpremiums and claims respectively Manystatistical models are used to model claimsand losses Parameters for these distributionsare estimated using Method of momentMaximum likelihood estimates etc and thenGoodness of fit testis applied to check howwell our distribution fits to the data Timeseries model plays an important role inforecasting future values Statistics is used toanswer the most important questions for theinsurance industry What percentage ofpolicies are expected to payout How muchmoney the company must expect to payout inclaims Different methods of data collectioneither in primary or secondary form are usedto determine the required reserves premiumand future predictions Apart from this manystatistical methods for eg Linear modelmethod which uses regression as the maintool in determining the factors affectingpremiums Loss distribution method in whichhistogram and bar graphs are made tocompare different categories and complexstatistical tools such as Ruin Theory and Run-off triangles are used to develop newproducts absorb and evaluate risk and ruinwhen balancing claims reserves andpremiums Thus statistics plays anirreplaceable role in the life cycle ofinsurance business for both life and non-life insurance

Statistics help in

Measuring the stability of drugs-II) Production of drugs according to demandsIII) Effectiveness of drugsIV) Quality control of drugs V) Marketing of drugs VI) Testing the side effects of the drug with thehelp of data VII) Going through the procedure of approvaland public distribution of drugs

Statistics in developing a drug

A lot of statistics tools are used duringproduction clinical trials and marketing andpublic distribution of drugs-1 Average (mean median and mode) Usedduring experiments like stability testingcombination of chemicals and checking acidity orbasicity of solutions to calculate mean averageresults2 Standard deviation and variance It is ameasure of testing precision Can be used toevaluate precision at various points in a processor to evaluate the precision between two differentmethods of the experiment3 Q test for rejecting data It is used to checkoutliers in data ie to check unusual deviation ina data set to see if it can be statistically rejected

4 Confidence limits It helps in finding theprobability of the true value being within acalculable range It makes use of multiplyingstandard deviation with studentrsquos t-factor thatdetermines the confidence interval of theobservation at the stated confidence level5 t F Chi-square and other tests Helps incomparing the results of two data sets For egside effects of different medication in the samepopulation6 Correlation Helps to detect the relationbetween two attributes of a data for eg howthe effect of a medicine increases or decreasesdue to the change in dosage how increase ordecrease in temperature affects the stability ofcertain medication

Clinical Trials

Clinical trials are research studies that evaluatenew ways to improve treatments and quality oflife for people with disease and in presentscenario global pandemic COVID-19 Resultsfrom Clinical trials help develop

1 New drugsvaccines 2 New diagnostic tools 3 New clinical procedures

Participants volunteer for clinical trials

(28)

In this method of stratified random sampling isused to divide the volunteers into different stratabased on shared attributes or characteristicssuch as gender medical conditions and otherspecifics These stratarsquos are used in differentphases of clinical trials

Clinical trials have 4 phases

Before trial begins volunteers need tounderstand the potential benefits and potentialrisks before participating in clinical trials thatrsquoswhy pre-clinical phase is conducted to test thenew treatment on animals and healthyvolunteers This part comes under descriptivestatistics where we are using the observed(benefits and risks) for further research Phase 1- In this new treatment is tested for thefirst time to know how treatment affects thebody to determine a safe dose range forvaccine and their side effects It involvesrelatively 20-80 volunteers Stats approach-Association analysis is performed to capture thecorrelations between drug therapeuticindications and side-effects In order to achievethis goal we adopted Fishers exact test whichis a widely used approach for measuring thesignificance of the association between twonominal variables For example to test thesignificance of the association between drugtherapeutic indications A and drug side effect B

Phase 2- The study involves how well a newtreatment or combination of treatment goes wellwith certain types of patients It involves up to300 patient volunteers For example out oftotal cancer patients half of the patients areselected randomly and are given cancertreatment along with new vaccine and other halfare given cancer treatment along with standardtreatment of corona virus Now side effects inboth the cases are noted Aim is to determinewhich combination of treatment will have lessside effects Chi- square test is used tocompare the side effects in both the cases Phase 3- In this phase effectiveness of addinga new treatment to the standard treatment isstudied 100-1000 volunteers participate in thisphase Stats approach- Participants arerandomly split into two groups 1st group(treatment group) receives the standardtreatment + new vaccine and 2nd group (controlgroup) receives standard treatment + placebo(a treatment that looks identical to the newtreatment but contains no active ingredient) Inthis phase mean time taken to develop antibodies in both the groups are compared usingZ-test (Test of significance for difference inmeans)

Phase 4- In this phase no volunteers areinvolved researchersrsquo monitor drug safety andeffectiveness It involves optimal usage

Codes canrsquot lie but comments can mightseems to be simple yet very meaningful

We all live in the digital era of hightechnologies smart devices and mobilesolutions Data is an essential aspect of anybusiness Itrsquos crucial to gather process andanalyse the data flow and to do that as quicklyand accurately as possible Nowadays the datavolume can be large which makes informationhandling time-consuming and expensive Dueto this precise reason the data science industryis growing at a rapid pace creating newpossibilities as well as opportunities and pythonis one of the solutions to understand andanalyse such big data sets It is a cross-functional language that has lots of advantagesto offer This object-oriented programminglanguage is commonly used to streamline largecomplex data sets Not only this it has a highreadability that helps data analysts to save timeby typing fewer lines of code for accomplishingthe tasks Therefore itrsquos not surprising at allthat it is claimed to be the preferredprogramming language for data science

gtgt Easy to LearnBeing involved in development for web servicesmobile apps as well as coding Yes it is one ofthe most famous language characteristics Morethan that a low and thus fast learning curve isthe next pre-eminence of Python whencomparing it with older languages on offer

gtgt Well-SupportedHaving the experience of using some tools forfree you probably know that it is a challenge toget decent support but thatrsquos not the case withPython Despite the high simplicity there can besituations when you still need help with PythonBeing in widespread use like in industries oracademic areas Python has a broad array ofhelpful libraries with tons of helpful and supportmaterials The great benefit is that all thelibraries are available at no cost

gtgt ScalabilityThis Pythonrsquos feature is closely connected withthe previous option Comparing with otherlanguages like R Java python is much fasterand more scalable Therefore it is good invarious fields that can solve a wide range ofproblems Thatrsquos why many companies havemigrated to Python

(34)

gtgt Huge Libraries CollectionAs I have already mentioned Python is one ofthe most supported languages nowadays Ithas a long list of totally free libraries availablefor all the users Thatrsquos a key factor that givesa strong push for Python If yoursquore involved inthe field more likely you are acquainted withsuch names as Pandas SciPy Stats ModelsMatplotlib etc libraries that are intensivelyutilized in the data science community Hereyou can easily find a solution needed forhassle-free work without additional expenses

ldquoCollege life is known as one of the most memorable years of astudentrsquos life exposing them to new experiences like meeting new

people learning new things exploring places etcrdquo

A registered clinical psychologist in Honk Kongnamed Zanonia Chiu said - ldquoGoing to school hadbeen a struggle for some children (withdepression) prior to the pandemic but at leastthey had school routines to stick with Now thatschools are closed some lock themselves upinside their rooms for weeks refusing to takeshowers eat or leave their beds For somechildren with depression there will beconsiderable difficulties adjusting back to normallife when college resumesrdquo and according to anonline survey conducted with the study periodfrom April 2020 to May 2020 - Total 531372 and 243 had symptoms of depressionanxiety and stress respectively with varyingseverities (N=727)The conclusion of the surveyindicated that COVID-19 is building psychologicaldistress among vulnerable college students asthey are forced to stay home along withworsening financial situations lifestyle changesfamily situations and time spent on variousactivities

Sounds so interesting and happening right Itis true indeed but along with stressful timeaside Along with the perks of enjoyingfreedom more than ever there comesacademic pressure tasks of separation fromfamilies career building futureresponsibilities etc Boarding on with thecollege life is a stressful time for manystudents thereby affecting their mental healthMental health problems are very commonamong college students and have been anincreasing concern However the COVID-19pandemic situation has brought this vulnerablepopulation into renewed focus Following thepandemic schools colleges offices andalmost every place that involved humaninteraction was shut It is important to note thatcollegeschool or even a normal routine areimportant coping mechanisms for youngpeople with mental health issues and wheneverything is shut down they lose an anchor inlife and their symptoms could relapse

Mental health among students is a big concernhowever ldquoUNTREATEDrdquo mental illnesses are amuch bigger and exponentially growingconcern Reaching out is an important step formental health issues to be addressed andtreated but reach out to who This is the pointwhere our institution should take over Collegesplay a big role in this stage Colleges doaddress this issue through means of orientationsessions and workshops but there is still a needto address mental health more directly Themethods to address mental health issuesshould be accessible feasible and affordablefor the students For example at NorthwesternUniversity student feedback led orientationenabled organizers to shift their focus fromexpert speakers to student testimonials Meansto address the issue vary from traditionalpresentations and panel discussions to roleplays small group discussions etc Herestudents learn how to recognize mental illnesssymptoms where to find resources andsupport and how to talk to friends who mightbe struggling

The findings of this study highlighted theurgent need to develop interventions andpreventive strategies to address the mentalhealth of college students Another InterviewSurvey study conducted by the Journal ofMedical Internet Research highlighted that of195 students 138 (71) indicated increasedstress and anxiety due to the COVID-19outbreak Multiple stressors were identified thatcontributed to the increased levels of stressanxiety and depressive thoughts amongstudents These included fear and worry abouttheir own health and of their loved ones(177195 91 reported negative impacts ofthe pandemic) difficulty in concentrating(173195 89) disruptions to sleepingpatterns (168195 86) decreased socialinteractions due to physical distancing(167195 86) and increased concerns onacademic performance (159195 82) Tocope with stress and anxiety participants havesought support from others and helpedthemselves by adopting either negative orpositive coping mechanisms It is important toknow that creating awareness about any issueis never enough action is what is neededTaking leave from workschool because of a fluor a fracture is acceptable and might even helpin the process of cure and healing howevertaking time off because of stress from a mentalillness such as anxiety or depressionunfortunately is not

lsquoOnline classrsquo is a term which most of us werenrsquotfamiliar with Before this pandemic we neverthought of getting education at home Covid hasaffected all of our lives In past pursuingeducation meant going to the schoolcollege Butnow the whole scenario has changed Childrenare studying and attending classes from homeJust like there are two sides of a coin onlineclasses also have some advantages anddisadvantages

Starting from the advantages it saves time forboth students and teachers as they donrsquot haveto travel All they have to do is to join throughtheir mobiles or laptops Secondly studentsdonrsquot have to necessarily buy books from theshops like they had to do in offline classesbecause they are given pdfs from which they canstudy Therefore it saves money Third it can beattended from anywhere in the world Unlike inthe offline classes where we had to gather at aparticular place Fourth computer basedpractical can be easily understood as studentscan share their screen with teachers Also it iseasy for teachers to explain a topic with the helpof pictures or animations which can be easilyfound on the internet

Last but not the least Parents can keep an eyeon their children whether they are studyingproperly or not

Apart from advantages it has somedisadvantages too First sitting beside thecomputer or mobile for hours affects the eyesightof both students and teachers Doctors arereporting many cases of eyestrain amongchildren since the online classes have startedSecondly students are becoming lazy as theydonrsquot have to go out of their home Like theproverb lsquoAll work and no play makes Jack a dullboyrsquo is really happening Third students canbunk in the online classes easily As they haveno fear of punishment they learned to disobeyand disrespect teachers Fourth students havebeen given lots of assignments as a result ofwhich most students are copying othersassignments and are not learning anything newFifth it is very difficult to communicate asteachers cannot give attention to each studentLastly it can be concluded that no matter howthe classes are being held a student must bededicated and sincere towards their studiesAfter all onersquos future depends on what they do intheir present

An actuary is a business executive professionally trained in the mathematical sciences Actuariesspecialize in the evaluation of financial riskmdashmost often in the context of life health and casualtyinsurance where they design analyse and refine varied programs to meet the insurance needs ofsociety A growing number of actuaries work in the areas of assetliability management and risk managementSome of these actuaries are employed by investment and consulting firms others are employed byinsurance companies

Actuaries have been called financial architects and social mathematicians because their combinedanalytical and business skills help solve a growing variety of financial and social problems Theactuarial profession is a demanding yet rewarding career choice

In a world bombarded with numerical information informed decisions rely on the ability to separatefact from fiction by applying valid statistical analyses and visualizations Statisticians can providecrucial guidance in determining what information is reliable and which predictions may be trustedThey often help search for clues to the solution of a scientific mystery and sometimes keepinvestigators from being misled by false impressions

Thousands of statisticians work in medicine law agriculture public policy marketing manufacturingengineering and other fields in the social and natural sciences The diversity of applications is anexciting aspect of the field and is one more reason why the demand for well-trained statisticianscontinues to be strong

The curtain lifts on Bryant Elementary Schools Spring Recorder Recital Ninety third-graders fumble with their instruments take a breath

and blow Their parents braced breathe too

as Hot Crossed Buns emerges a little scattershot -- the Normal Distribution brought to life

By Go Tell Aunt Rhodie the audience

is moved by their sheer pretty-goodness though one kid knocks her music to the floor

and another squeaks to demonstrate

the tail two standard deviations below the mean The curve implies

that somewhere on stage another kid

just played a note so sweet he might shatter Mrs Wedermeyers glasses And if

there are a mother and father who think

that child is theirs may they be forgiven even if the child shining in their eyes

is moving his fingers slightly out of rhythm

even if hes never led the bell curve in his life In consecutive measures of almost unison

its easy to believe these children are musicians

Their parents do so stirred by Ode to Joy they rise to their feet with the final phrase

clapping from the darkened auditorium

at once as one heroically like the parents theyve meant to be

EK NAYA SAFAR

Mubarak ho apko zindgi ka naya safar

Naya hai sheher nai hai dagar

Chut gaye kuch rishte purane

But donrsquot worry yaar mil jayenge naye diwane

Kuch tum jaise khuch tum se alag

So just smile and start a new life

Dosti yaari ko zara side mai rakh ke

Edhar gaur famiye janab

Course toh tumne acha chuna hai

Kuch socha hai ya ese hi liya hai

College mai admission jab hota hai

Toh andar khushi ke fuvare futne lagte hai

Lekin syllabus o dekh kar yeh bhi dagmagane lagte hai

Mana CP paas hai vahi maat ghumte rehna

Varna paper mai cafeacute ki menu sheet hi likhte rehna

Donrsquot take a chill pill coz yaha ki teachers hai thori strict

Just because they want you to be the best

Ab kya kare college ka har din mamuli nahi hota

Aur 9 se 4 sirf parai nahi hoti

Gumo firo esh karo but parna na bhulo

Mana es saal kuch zyada hi speed breakers hai

But the best part is hum sab bhi toh sath hai

PONDERINGAll of humanity is but a set of numbers You and I

are nothing more than a statisticJust think about any decision you had to take

recently No matter your choice you might findyourself ending up only as an infinitesimal

decimal in the final percentage of a statisticianrsquosdiscourse Let me give you an example pertinent

to the world we live in today Say yoursquore arepublican and have to decide whether to wear a

mask or not Naturally your political instinctmight warn you against it However you might

still be inclined to wear one because yoursquoregenuinely scared about what the ldquoliberalsrdquo have

to say about the SARS-COV-2 Now now letrsquos notgo off-topic here I know you might be wondering

what yoursquod do if you were in a Republicanrsquos shoesBut thatrsquos not the point

In the end it seldom matters whether you are arepublican or a liberal especially in situations

like these What matters in the end is if you didgo out without wearing that infuriating

smothering mask And if you contracted thewretched virus because of it If yes hard luck

Yoursquore nothing more than one of the 841 millionpeople who have it Thatrsquos all that people aroundthe world will see Not your gender not your ageand certainly not your political belief Of course

there will be studies about the correlation ofthese factors with the incidence rate of the

infections but thatrsquos another story altogether andnot one possibly as broad as the one we talk

aboutMoreover the correlation must not be

confused with causation Now perhaps thatrsquosa story for another day But think about it thisway whether you go to college or drop out of

high school whether you choose to live ordecide to die no matter the decision no

matter your inclination or choice whetheryou like it or not you will be nothing more

than a statisticIt might sound a bit gloomy to be honestWhen I first thought about it I felt almostinsignificant Like a tiny speck of dust in a

galaxy of stars Alas isnrsquot that all that we arethough

A pale blue dot in an ocean of stars Ourplanet one among millions or perhaps

billions of others All 78 billion of us fightingfor a place in the world knowing full well we

canrsquot all possibly have it It might makeanyone feel overwhelmed but therersquos

something about that that is so challenging itis almost inspiring We all know statistics andwe all know life But the true beauty of life lies

in the ability to defy statistics Only onequestion remains are you up for the

challenge

It wonrsquot be any exaggeration If itrsquos said that tools of statistician are used in almost all fields ofcalculation

Be it research finance sports marketing sales health care or population countingIt is a crucial process behind How we make discoveries in science

Making decisions or claiming predictions It plays a crucial play in all situationsStats is involved everywhere from collection to interpretation From explanation to

presentationStatistics helps avoiding a wide variety of analytical traps By making sure that study follow

It always seems impossible until it is done

If it makes you happyit doesnt have to make sense to others

When you cant find the sunshinebe the sunshine

Either you run the day or let the day run you

When you focus on the goodthe good gets better

It takes the same energy to worry as it doesto be positive so use your energy to thinkpositive and positive things will happen

The one thing that doesnt abide by majority rule is a persons conscience

Make happiness a priority and be gentle with yourself in the process

College the best start to unfold lifes beauty

Goodbye to the mistakes weve made remember the laughs weve shared

Will never forget these years

People are capable at anytime in their lives of doing what they dream of

productivity and replace it by degree ofpresence

Having charismatic and vibrant self is key tohappiness optimism and being systematic is

a way to success

When it rains look for rainbows when its dark look for stars

Believe you can and youre halfway there Fall in love with the process of becoming thevery best version of yourself

Rise above the storm and you will find sunshine

Do not change the path in front of your dreamswhatever happens do not break those dreams in yourmind You will find difficulties on every step but do

not leave the ground just to choose the stars

If people are trying to pull you down then you arealready better than them Just focus on your energies and

May every sunrise bring you hopeMay every sunset bring you peace

If you dont believe in yourself thenno one is going to believe in you So

Believe in Yourself

Be who you are and say what you feelbecause those who mind donrsquot matter and

those who matter donrsquot mind

Success is liking yourself liking what you do and liking how you do it

Happiness is a by-product of an effort to make someone else happy

If you are not willing to risk the unusual you will have to settle for the ordinary

Always keep it clean simple and precise

Hustle until you no longer have to introduce yourself

Dream it Wish it Do it

There are no limits to what you can accomplish except the limits you place

on your own thinking

The greatness of humanity is not in being human but in being humane

You will be exactly as happy as you decide

One thing to learn from the sun is thatwhenever a cloud tries to hinder itslight it finds its own path to shine

Excellence is not achieved - it is aspired to and trekked towards The tougher the trek

the better the views

I think the day we figure out everythingabout our lives is the day we die

Finding your magic can be scary but owning it will be EUPHORIA

An approximate answer to the right problem is worth a good deal more than

an exact answer to an approximate problem

Our greatest weakness lies in giving up The most certain way to succeed is always to try just one more time

The aim is to live happily heal throughevery situation and learn everything new

with every step taken

Believe in progress not perfection

Croxton and Cowden defines statistics as the science of collection presentation analysis andinterpretation of numerical data Progressively the Statistics subject come to be more and more popular and its application hasbecome more extensive Now almost there is no field of human activity where statistics are not usedNowadays it is used by economists businessmen scientists administrators etc To be more preciseabout the importance of statistics in our life lets discuss some astonishing reasons that we haveoverheard on several occasions

1 Everyone lookout for weather forecasting Have you ever thought how do you acquire thatinformation There are some computer models constructed on the basis of statistical conceptsThese computer models relate past weather with the present weather and predict future weather

2 Statistics frequently used by the researchers They use their statistical skills to collect therelevant data Otherwise it results in a loss of money time and data

3 What do you understand by insurance Everyone has some kind of insurance whether it ismedical home or any other insurance Several businesses use statistical models based on anindividual application to calculate the risk of giving insurance Life tables are indispensable for thesolution of all questions relating to the duration of human life 4 Statistic plays significant role in financial market Statistics are the key of how traders andbusinessmen invest and make money

5 Statistics play a big role in the medical field For testing the efficacy of a manufacturing druginjection or medicine for controlling curing specific ailments most of the applications of medicalfields lies in using the tests of significance (more precisely studentrsquos t-test) The testing of theeffectiveness of a medicine by the manufacturing concern is a must since only after theeffectiveness of the medicine is proven by the sound statistical techniques that it will venture tomanufacture it on a large scale and bring it out in the market By statistical techniques (t and Fsignificance tests) comparative study of different medicines can also be made

(18)

6 In industry Statistical techniques are used in quality testing Companies manufacture manyproducts on a daily basis and every company make sure that they sell the best quality items Butcompanies cannot test all the products so they use sampling techniques which are a very importantaspect of statistical theory 7 We make variety of predictions in daily life For examples we keep the alarm for the morningwhen we donrsquot know that we will be alive in the morning or not Here we use statistics basics to makepredictions

8 Using statistics concepts doctors predict disease Suppose a survey shows that 75-80people have cancer and not able to find the reason Where the statistics is involved there you canhave a better idea on how the cancer may affect your body

9 News reporter makes a prediction of winner for elections based on political campaigns Herestatistics play a very important role to find out who will form the government 10 Statistics data allow us to collect the information around the world The internet is a devisewhich help us to collect the information The fundamental behind the internet is based on statisticsand mathematics concepts 11 Not only in peace times but in war times also statistics can be used very effectively It ispractically not possible to face a war without the factual data concerning the military strength of theenemy in terms of manpower military tanks war aeroplanes missiles ammunition etc

BIOSTATISTICS is the application of statisticalmethods in studies in biology andencompasses the design of experiments thecollection of data from them and the analysisand interpretation of data The data comes froma wide range of sources including genomicstudies experiments with cells and organismsand clinical trials Biostatistics is the applicationof statistical principles to questions andproblems in medicine public health or biologyOne can imagine that it might be of interest tocharacterize a given population with respect tothe proportion who has asthma and it wouldalso be important to estimate the magnitude ofthese problems over time or perhaps in differentlocations Statistics is a science of compilingclassifying and tabulating numerical data andexpressing the results in a mathematical andgraphical form whereas biostatistics is thebranch of statistics concerned with themathematical facts and data related to biologicalevents

Francis Galton created the statistical conceptcorrelation Sir Galton for the first time usedstatistical tools to study differences amonghuman population He also invented the use ofquestionnaires surveys for collecting data onhuman communities Biostatistics are the eventand application of statistical method to a goodrange of topic in biology It encompasses theplanning of biological experiments the gatheringand analysis of knowledge from thoseexperiments and therefore the interpretation ofthe results Biostatistics is sometimesdistinguished from the field of biometry basedupon whether applications are in the healthsciences (bio statistics) or in broader biology(biometry example agriculture ecology wildlifebiology) More and more things are nowmeasured quantitatively in medicine and publichealth There is a great deal of inherent variationin most biological processes Public health andmedicine are becoming increasingly quantitative

(20)

It is used to test whether the differencebetween two populations is real or by chanceoccurrence to study the correlation betweenattributes in the same population and toevaluate the achievements of public healthprograms Biostatistics has applications in allthe branches of life sciences such as formapping chromosomes for studying thebehavior of genes in a population and forconduction of drug treatment trails etcBiostatistics deals with data arising frombiomedical research It remains a very activeresearch area with complicated time-to-eventdata and missing data emerging in applicationareas including medicine geneticsneuroscience and engineering Recentadvances in biomedical research have creatednew challenges and opportunities forstatisticians and data scientists For examplebig data analysis precision medicine artificialintelligence causal inference and other newresearch fields have inspired data scientists todevelop modern statistical methods andinnovative inference procedures

As technology progresses the physicianencounters more and more quantitative ratherthan descriptive information In one sensestatistics is the language of assembling andhandling quantitative material Even if onersquosconcern is only with the results of other peoplersquosmanipulation and assemblage of data it isimportant to achieve some understanding of thislanguage in order to interpret their resultsproperly Statistics pervades the medicalliterature As a consequence of the increasinglyquantitative nature of public health and medicineand its reliance on statistical methodology themedical literature is replete with reports in whichstatistical techniques are used extensivelyBiostatistics is used to determine how diseasesdevelop progress and spread

For example biostatisticians use statistics topredict the behavior of an illness like flu It is usedto help predict the mortality rate the symptomsand even the time of year people might get it

Over 50 years ago there was a subject whichwas unnoticed and mainly focused on the studyand analysis of data Statisticians urgedacademic statistics to transcend its boundariesbeyond the realm of theoretical statistics Morestress was laid on data presentation Datascience is a discipline which is guided bycomputing informatics operation researchmathematics and statistics

Statistics is treated as the most important tool insorting and analysing data It is beneficial ingiving a deeper vision of the data Statisticswidely depends upon experiments and surveysWith the help of descriptive statisticscalculations like mean median etc can bedone on the data On the other hand inferentialstatistics helps in drawing inferences andconclusions from the population Both domainsof statistics play a very important role in DataScience In order to get a structured data andmaking predictions statistical methods and toolsare very essential They are able to carry outmany analytical tasks

Statistical Analysis is the study of surveying agiven set of data and observing patterns andtrends It is used in research fields to createstatistical models for performing certainexperiments on a population

The focus is to gather information from thesmallest quantity of data The experimentsinvolve accurate calculations and therefore giverespective results Statistics forms the base ofData Science It requires optimization of hugedatabases which is achieved with the help ofdifferent statistical tools In todayrsquos data drivenworld Data Science is turning out to be one ofthe most demanded professions Almost all firmsand companies are in search of data scientistsas the data keeps on piling up and the need ofinterpreting analysing and cleaning it is risingThe ultimate aim of Statistics and Data Scienceis to extricate cognizance from large amounts ofdata

Whenever the word lsquobusinessrsquo is heard lsquosalesrsquo isthe word which comes to our mind next and whatexactly assists sales is STATISTICS Donrsquotbelieve me but I am sure after reading the articleyou would all agree to my point too So what doesa businessman do He manufactures and sellsthe goods produced to the public but both ofthese basic functions of the businessman cannotbe transcended without the help of statistics toolssuch as survey statistics driven softwares tocollect and analyse the demand of the customerand to what extent ie the quantity in which it isrequired in order to maximize their total revenueThe graphs and the tables formed ie the statshelp them to know the exact condition of themarket and its inclination so that they could comeout with offers and discounts in order to attractpublic towards their product maximizing theirsales The businessmen who is believed to bevery quick and accurate in decision making is allassisted by statistics at every point fromanalysing their sales profit margins wages of theemployees the improvements required in theproduct the billing counters are all carriedforward with the help of statistical tools Thefinancial resources required for investing in thebusiness are also arranged according to theassistance given by the data analysts Themarketing and advertisement of the products alsoneeds statistics Now you would be thinking how

amp its regular maintenance is all handled bystatistical applications In order to calculate theaverage mean median loss profit and all theother commerce related terms in businessesdealing with large amount of data is all handledby statisticians Statistics also helps inmaintaining employee performancemanagement A manager collects data aboutemployee productivity such as the number oftasks completed or the number of unitsproduced He or she must analyse data to findways in which an employee should improve toachieve maximum productivity Manycompanies also collect data about employeeengagement and happiness on the job whichcan be tracked to not only keep workersmotivated but ensure they dont leave for otherpositions elsewhere This helps in increasingthe efficiency of the employees and also createsa healthy working environment I have listed lotof points to prove the importance of statistics inbusinesses and hope that you will now agree towhat I mentioned in the beginning of the article

Whenever a method of marketing is thought thepercentage of people to get influenced the agegroup to target the kind of offers to be laid downare all done through statistics You might haveheard that now data is the new oil that means lifeis all surrounded with data and for the data andthe demand for its upkeep and analysis the dataanalysts are required and in big organizationswho actually target all age groups and sell allkinds of products on a large scale have a largedatabase not only of the customers but also oftheir n number of employees So an organizationis incomplete without data and where there isdata there is statistics In fact I would say thatan organization isnrsquot an organization if they donot have data and its proper upkeep in such acase the company will surely drain out so thisactually proves how important statistics hasbecome in the business point of view Thebanking sector canrsquot function without statisticsand this banking business forms the backbone ofthe country since all the customers of the bankhave loads of data for a particular bank account

Statistics is the science of learning from dataStatistical knowledge helps an individual to usethe proper methods for collecting data employthe correct analysis and present the resultseffectively Statistical analysis is thus used inalmost all fields to make sense out of the vastamount of data that is available Thus statisticalmethodologies are not only useful in drawingimportant results but also play a significant role inproducing new findings and understanding thework of others One such field which has wideuse of the statistical techniques andmethodologies is the Insurance Sector Insuranceis basically the business of risk as it involves thetransfer of risk from one party to another

The main incoming and outgoing source ofincome in the business of insurance is throughpremiums and claims respectively Manystatistical models are used to model claimsand losses Parameters for these distributionsare estimated using Method of momentMaximum likelihood estimates etc and thenGoodness of fit testis applied to check howwell our distribution fits to the data Timeseries model plays an important role inforecasting future values Statistics is used toanswer the most important questions for theinsurance industry What percentage ofpolicies are expected to payout How muchmoney the company must expect to payout inclaims Different methods of data collectioneither in primary or secondary form are usedto determine the required reserves premiumand future predictions Apart from this manystatistical methods for eg Linear modelmethod which uses regression as the maintool in determining the factors affectingpremiums Loss distribution method in whichhistogram and bar graphs are made tocompare different categories and complexstatistical tools such as Ruin Theory and Run-off triangles are used to develop newproducts absorb and evaluate risk and ruinwhen balancing claims reserves andpremiums Thus statistics plays anirreplaceable role in the life cycle ofinsurance business for both life and non-life insurance

Statistics help in

Measuring the stability of drugs-II) Production of drugs according to demandsIII) Effectiveness of drugsIV) Quality control of drugs V) Marketing of drugs VI) Testing the side effects of the drug with thehelp of data VII) Going through the procedure of approvaland public distribution of drugs

Statistics in developing a drug

A lot of statistics tools are used duringproduction clinical trials and marketing andpublic distribution of drugs-1 Average (mean median and mode) Usedduring experiments like stability testingcombination of chemicals and checking acidity orbasicity of solutions to calculate mean averageresults2 Standard deviation and variance It is ameasure of testing precision Can be used toevaluate precision at various points in a processor to evaluate the precision between two differentmethods of the experiment3 Q test for rejecting data It is used to checkoutliers in data ie to check unusual deviation ina data set to see if it can be statistically rejected

4 Confidence limits It helps in finding theprobability of the true value being within acalculable range It makes use of multiplyingstandard deviation with studentrsquos t-factor thatdetermines the confidence interval of theobservation at the stated confidence level5 t F Chi-square and other tests Helps incomparing the results of two data sets For egside effects of different medication in the samepopulation6 Correlation Helps to detect the relationbetween two attributes of a data for eg howthe effect of a medicine increases or decreasesdue to the change in dosage how increase ordecrease in temperature affects the stability ofcertain medication

Clinical Trials

Clinical trials are research studies that evaluatenew ways to improve treatments and quality oflife for people with disease and in presentscenario global pandemic COVID-19 Resultsfrom Clinical trials help develop

1 New drugsvaccines 2 New diagnostic tools 3 New clinical procedures

Participants volunteer for clinical trials

(28)

In this method of stratified random sampling isused to divide the volunteers into different stratabased on shared attributes or characteristicssuch as gender medical conditions and otherspecifics These stratarsquos are used in differentphases of clinical trials

Clinical trials have 4 phases

Before trial begins volunteers need tounderstand the potential benefits and potentialrisks before participating in clinical trials thatrsquoswhy pre-clinical phase is conducted to test thenew treatment on animals and healthyvolunteers This part comes under descriptivestatistics where we are using the observed(benefits and risks) for further research Phase 1- In this new treatment is tested for thefirst time to know how treatment affects thebody to determine a safe dose range forvaccine and their side effects It involvesrelatively 20-80 volunteers Stats approach-Association analysis is performed to capture thecorrelations between drug therapeuticindications and side-effects In order to achievethis goal we adopted Fishers exact test whichis a widely used approach for measuring thesignificance of the association between twonominal variables For example to test thesignificance of the association between drugtherapeutic indications A and drug side effect B

Phase 2- The study involves how well a newtreatment or combination of treatment goes wellwith certain types of patients It involves up to300 patient volunteers For example out oftotal cancer patients half of the patients areselected randomly and are given cancertreatment along with new vaccine and other halfare given cancer treatment along with standardtreatment of corona virus Now side effects inboth the cases are noted Aim is to determinewhich combination of treatment will have lessside effects Chi- square test is used tocompare the side effects in both the cases Phase 3- In this phase effectiveness of addinga new treatment to the standard treatment isstudied 100-1000 volunteers participate in thisphase Stats approach- Participants arerandomly split into two groups 1st group(treatment group) receives the standardtreatment + new vaccine and 2nd group (controlgroup) receives standard treatment + placebo(a treatment that looks identical to the newtreatment but contains no active ingredient) Inthis phase mean time taken to develop antibodies in both the groups are compared usingZ-test (Test of significance for difference inmeans)

Phase 4- In this phase no volunteers areinvolved researchersrsquo monitor drug safety andeffectiveness It involves optimal usage

What comes to your mind when you first hear theword Statisticsrsquo Graphs numbers or lines butwhat if I say that statistics comes with enumerablecareer opportunities The options are endless andthe jobs are just a little But what is the barrier thatholds us from thinking of Statistics as a separatesubject and just an extension of MathematicsMost of us still donrsquot know what statistics is allabout If we tell someone that we are a student ofStatistics they might just think itrsquos not a careeroption Even Google offers with a line explanationof Statistics ldquonumbers that have been collectedin order to provide information aboutsomethingrdquo Statistics is defined as theaggregate of facts affected to a market extent bymultiplicity of causes numerically expressed orestimated according to a reasonable standard ofaccuracy collected in a systematic manner forpredetermined purpose and placed in relation toeach other It is the art of learning from data It isconcerned with learning from data and theiranalysis As a plural it means numerical dataarising in any sphere of human experience thatis mostly unknown sources working togetherwhereas singularly it refers to the collection andinterpretation of numerical data The branchlsquoStatisticsrsquo is broadly divided into two formsDescriptive and Inferential Statistics DescriptiveStatistics involves collection analysation andcharacterization of data It includes graphicalmethods and numeric measures InferentialStatistic involves estimation and conclusion ofdata that has been classified under descriptivestatistics

Statistics is used in a variety of fields likecommerce trade economics chemistryastronomy industry etc Every field comes withone or the other usage of statistics Whether it bethe biggest of MNCrsquos or even a tea stall holdereveryone requires the usage of statistical tools todraw conclusion on what step they need to takenext The levels of profit or losses to obtainmaximum results from minimum resources allthis needs carefully collected data and thendrawing valid inference from it by using variousstatistical tools and techniques Even in day today life the change in prices of goodsvegetables and the trivial yet most importantdecision of whether to buy a new pair of shoes orclothes so that the house budget is not affectedcomes under Statistics The Government usesStatistics at a wide level whether it be forconducting a population census prediction ofoutcome of elections or drawing conclusions onwhether a new law should be passed or not Allthis requires Statistics It eliminates the chancesof uncertainty and predictions by laying the factsand figures required to reach to a correctdecision Even in the outbreak of this globalpandemic Statistics was extensively used be itto know numbers of cases rising daily number ofhospital facilities and medicine required therequirement of vaccines or the recovery ratesand so on The graphs drawn helped the generalpublic to easily understand the prevailingscenario and progress rate Thus Statistics is awide concept that is a helping hand in thisgrowing economy

Codes canrsquot lie but comments can mightseems to be simple yet very meaningful

We all live in the digital era of hightechnologies smart devices and mobilesolutions Data is an essential aspect of anybusiness Itrsquos crucial to gather process andanalyse the data flow and to do that as quicklyand accurately as possible Nowadays the datavolume can be large which makes informationhandling time-consuming and expensive Dueto this precise reason the data science industryis growing at a rapid pace creating newpossibilities as well as opportunities and pythonis one of the solutions to understand andanalyse such big data sets It is a cross-functional language that has lots of advantagesto offer This object-oriented programminglanguage is commonly used to streamline largecomplex data sets Not only this it has a highreadability that helps data analysts to save timeby typing fewer lines of code for accomplishingthe tasks Therefore itrsquos not surprising at allthat it is claimed to be the preferredprogramming language for data science

Let me tell you why Python is a number oneoption for data analysis-

By Tanisha Gupta ( 3rd Year )

gtgt Easy to LearnBeing involved in development for web servicesmobile apps as well as coding Yes it is one ofthe most famous language characteristics Morethan that a low and thus fast learning curve isthe next pre-eminence of Python whencomparing it with older languages on offer

gtgt Well-SupportedHaving the experience of using some tools forfree you probably know that it is a challenge toget decent support but thatrsquos not the case withPython Despite the high simplicity there can besituations when you still need help with PythonBeing in widespread use like in industries oracademic areas Python has a broad array ofhelpful libraries with tons of helpful and supportmaterials The great benefit is that all thelibraries are available at no cost

gtgt ScalabilityThis Pythonrsquos feature is closely connected withthe previous option Comparing with otherlanguages like R Java python is much fasterand more scalable Therefore it is good invarious fields that can solve a wide range ofproblems Thatrsquos why many companies havemigrated to Python

(34)

gtgt Huge Libraries CollectionAs I have already mentioned Python is one ofthe most supported languages nowadays Ithas a long list of totally free libraries availablefor all the users Thatrsquos a key factor that givesa strong push for Python If yoursquore involved inthe field more likely you are acquainted withsuch names as Pandas SciPy Stats ModelsMatplotlib etc libraries that are intensivelyutilized in the data science community Hereyou can easily find a solution needed forhassle-free work without additional expenses

gtgt Graphics and Visualization ToolsItrsquos a well-known fact that visual information ismuch easier to understand operate andremember So here is some good news foryou There is a pack of diverse visualizationoptions available that makes python a must-have tool not only for data analysis but for alldata science You can make the data moreaccessible and easier to use by means ofcreating various charts and graphics as wellas interactive plots Always remember that thesuccess of your business directly depends onthe ability to extract knowledge and insightsfrom data to make effective strategicdecisions stay competitive and makeprogress and Python is the internationallyclaimed programming language to help us inhandling our data in a better manner for avariety of causes

ldquoCollege life is known as one of the most memorable years of astudentrsquos life exposing them to new experiences like meeting new

people learning new things exploring places etcrdquo

A registered clinical psychologist in Honk Kongnamed Zanonia Chiu said - ldquoGoing to school hadbeen a struggle for some children (withdepression) prior to the pandemic but at leastthey had school routines to stick with Now thatschools are closed some lock themselves upinside their rooms for weeks refusing to takeshowers eat or leave their beds For somechildren with depression there will beconsiderable difficulties adjusting back to normallife when college resumesrdquo and according to anonline survey conducted with the study periodfrom April 2020 to May 2020 - Total 531372 and 243 had symptoms of depressionanxiety and stress respectively with varyingseverities (N=727)The conclusion of the surveyindicated that COVID-19 is building psychologicaldistress among vulnerable college students asthey are forced to stay home along withworsening financial situations lifestyle changesfamily situations and time spent on variousactivities

Sounds so interesting and happening right Itis true indeed but along with stressful timeaside Along with the perks of enjoyingfreedom more than ever there comesacademic pressure tasks of separation fromfamilies career building futureresponsibilities etc Boarding on with thecollege life is a stressful time for manystudents thereby affecting their mental healthMental health problems are very commonamong college students and have been anincreasing concern However the COVID-19pandemic situation has brought this vulnerablepopulation into renewed focus Following thepandemic schools colleges offices andalmost every place that involved humaninteraction was shut It is important to note thatcollegeschool or even a normal routine areimportant coping mechanisms for youngpeople with mental health issues and wheneverything is shut down they lose an anchor inlife and their symptoms could relapse

Mental health among students is a big concernhowever ldquoUNTREATEDrdquo mental illnesses are amuch bigger and exponentially growingconcern Reaching out is an important step formental health issues to be addressed andtreated but reach out to who This is the pointwhere our institution should take over Collegesplay a big role in this stage Colleges doaddress this issue through means of orientationsessions and workshops but there is still a needto address mental health more directly Themethods to address mental health issuesshould be accessible feasible and affordablefor the students For example at NorthwesternUniversity student feedback led orientationenabled organizers to shift their focus fromexpert speakers to student testimonials Meansto address the issue vary from traditionalpresentations and panel discussions to roleplays small group discussions etc Herestudents learn how to recognize mental illnesssymptoms where to find resources andsupport and how to talk to friends who mightbe struggling

The findings of this study highlighted theurgent need to develop interventions andpreventive strategies to address the mentalhealth of college students Another InterviewSurvey study conducted by the Journal ofMedical Internet Research highlighted that of195 students 138 (71) indicated increasedstress and anxiety due to the COVID-19outbreak Multiple stressors were identified thatcontributed to the increased levels of stressanxiety and depressive thoughts amongstudents These included fear and worry abouttheir own health and of their loved ones(177195 91 reported negative impacts ofthe pandemic) difficulty in concentrating(173195 89) disruptions to sleepingpatterns (168195 86) decreased socialinteractions due to physical distancing(167195 86) and increased concerns onacademic performance (159195 82) Tocope with stress and anxiety participants havesought support from others and helpedthemselves by adopting either negative orpositive coping mechanisms It is important toknow that creating awareness about any issueis never enough action is what is neededTaking leave from workschool because of a fluor a fracture is acceptable and might even helpin the process of cure and healing howevertaking time off because of stress from a mentalillness such as anxiety or depressionunfortunately is not

lsquoOnline classrsquo is a term which most of us werenrsquotfamiliar with Before this pandemic we neverthought of getting education at home Covid hasaffected all of our lives In past pursuingeducation meant going to the schoolcollege Butnow the whole scenario has changed Childrenare studying and attending classes from homeJust like there are two sides of a coin onlineclasses also have some advantages anddisadvantages

Starting from the advantages it saves time forboth students and teachers as they donrsquot haveto travel All they have to do is to join throughtheir mobiles or laptops Secondly studentsdonrsquot have to necessarily buy books from theshops like they had to do in offline classesbecause they are given pdfs from which they canstudy Therefore it saves money Third it can beattended from anywhere in the world Unlike inthe offline classes where we had to gather at aparticular place Fourth computer basedpractical can be easily understood as studentscan share their screen with teachers Also it iseasy for teachers to explain a topic with the helpof pictures or animations which can be easilyfound on the internet

Last but not the least Parents can keep an eyeon their children whether they are studyingproperly or not

Apart from advantages it has somedisadvantages too First sitting beside thecomputer or mobile for hours affects the eyesightof both students and teachers Doctors arereporting many cases of eyestrain amongchildren since the online classes have startedSecondly students are becoming lazy as theydonrsquot have to go out of their home Like theproverb lsquoAll work and no play makes Jack a dullboyrsquo is really happening Third students canbunk in the online classes easily As they haveno fear of punishment they learned to disobeyand disrespect teachers Fourth students havebeen given lots of assignments as a result ofwhich most students are copying othersassignments and are not learning anything newFifth it is very difficult to communicate asteachers cannot give attention to each studentLastly it can be concluded that no matter howthe classes are being held a student must bededicated and sincere towards their studiesAfter all onersquos future depends on what they do intheir present

An actuary is a business executive professionally trained in the mathematical sciences Actuariesspecialize in the evaluation of financial riskmdashmost often in the context of life health and casualtyinsurance where they design analyse and refine varied programs to meet the insurance needs ofsociety A growing number of actuaries work in the areas of assetliability management and risk managementSome of these actuaries are employed by investment and consulting firms others are employed byinsurance companies

Actuaries have been called financial architects and social mathematicians because their combinedanalytical and business skills help solve a growing variety of financial and social problems Theactuarial profession is a demanding yet rewarding career choice

In a world bombarded with numerical information informed decisions rely on the ability to separatefact from fiction by applying valid statistical analyses and visualizations Statisticians can providecrucial guidance in determining what information is reliable and which predictions may be trustedThey often help search for clues to the solution of a scientific mystery and sometimes keepinvestigators from being misled by false impressions

Thousands of statisticians work in medicine law agriculture public policy marketing manufacturingengineering and other fields in the social and natural sciences The diversity of applications is anexciting aspect of the field and is one more reason why the demand for well-trained statisticianscontinues to be strong

Poetry

Contributed by Dr Komal Goel

by Anubis the Philosomancer

(41)

Contributed by Dr Meenu Goel

The curtain lifts on Bryant Elementary Schools Spring Recorder Recital Ninety third-graders fumble with their instruments take a breath

and blow Their parents braced breathe too

as Hot Crossed Buns emerges a little scattershot -- the Normal Distribution brought to life

By Go Tell Aunt Rhodie the audience

is moved by their sheer pretty-goodness though one kid knocks her music to the floor

and another squeaks to demonstrate

the tail two standard deviations below the mean The curve implies

that somewhere on stage another kid

just played a note so sweet he might shatter Mrs Wedermeyers glasses And if

there are a mother and father who think

that child is theirs may they be forgiven even if the child shining in their eyes

is moving his fingers slightly out of rhythm

even if hes never led the bell curve in his life In consecutive measures of almost unison

its easy to believe these children are musicians

Their parents do so stirred by Ode to Joy they rise to their feet with the final phrase

clapping from the darkened auditorium

at once as one heroically like the parents theyve meant to be

EK NAYA SAFAR

Mubarak ho apko zindgi ka naya safar

Naya hai sheher nai hai dagar

Chut gaye kuch rishte purane

But donrsquot worry yaar mil jayenge naye diwane

Kuch tum jaise khuch tum se alag

So just smile and start a new life

Dosti yaari ko zara side mai rakh ke

Edhar gaur famiye janab

Course toh tumne acha chuna hai

Kuch socha hai ya ese hi liya hai

College mai admission jab hota hai

Toh andar khushi ke fuvare futne lagte hai

Lekin syllabus o dekh kar yeh bhi dagmagane lagte hai

Mana CP paas hai vahi maat ghumte rehna

Varna paper mai cafeacute ki menu sheet hi likhte rehna

Donrsquot take a chill pill coz yaha ki teachers hai thori strict

Just because they want you to be the best

Ab kya kare college ka har din mamuli nahi hota

Aur 9 se 4 sirf parai nahi hoti

Gumo firo esh karo but parna na bhulo

Mana es saal kuch zyada hi speed breakers hai

But the best part is hum sab bhi toh sath hai

PONDERINGAll of humanity is but a set of numbers You and I

are nothing more than a statisticJust think about any decision you had to take

recently No matter your choice you might findyourself ending up only as an infinitesimal

decimal in the final percentage of a statisticianrsquosdiscourse Let me give you an example pertinent

to the world we live in today Say yoursquore arepublican and have to decide whether to wear a

mask or not Naturally your political instinctmight warn you against it However you might

still be inclined to wear one because yoursquoregenuinely scared about what the ldquoliberalsrdquo have

to say about the SARS-COV-2 Now now letrsquos notgo off-topic here I know you might be wondering

what yoursquod do if you were in a Republicanrsquos shoesBut thatrsquos not the point

In the end it seldom matters whether you are arepublican or a liberal especially in situations

like these What matters in the end is if you didgo out without wearing that infuriating

smothering mask And if you contracted thewretched virus because of it If yes hard luck

Yoursquore nothing more than one of the 841 millionpeople who have it Thatrsquos all that people aroundthe world will see Not your gender not your ageand certainly not your political belief Of course

there will be studies about the correlation ofthese factors with the incidence rate of the

infections but thatrsquos another story altogether andnot one possibly as broad as the one we talk

aboutMoreover the correlation must not be

confused with causation Now perhaps thatrsquosa story for another day But think about it thisway whether you go to college or drop out of

high school whether you choose to live ordecide to die no matter the decision no

matter your inclination or choice whetheryou like it or not you will be nothing more

than a statisticIt might sound a bit gloomy to be honestWhen I first thought about it I felt almostinsignificant Like a tiny speck of dust in a

galaxy of stars Alas isnrsquot that all that we arethough

A pale blue dot in an ocean of stars Ourplanet one among millions or perhaps

billions of others All 78 billion of us fightingfor a place in the world knowing full well we

canrsquot all possibly have it It might makeanyone feel overwhelmed but therersquos

something about that that is so challenging itis almost inspiring We all know statistics andwe all know life But the true beauty of life lies

in the ability to defy statistics Only onequestion remains are you up for the

challenge

It wonrsquot be any exaggeration If itrsquos said that tools of statistician are used in almost all fields ofcalculation

Be it research finance sports marketing sales health care or population countingIt is a crucial process behind How we make discoveries in science

Making decisions or claiming predictions It plays a crucial play in all situationsStats is involved everywhere from collection to interpretation From explanation to

presentationStatistics helps avoiding a wide variety of analytical traps By making sure that study follow

apt methods in all aspectsChallenging your own assumptions Or drawing data-based conclusions

Statistics is always there Making things crisp and clear

Why also bother living the life you claim tohave lived

It always seems impossible until it is done

If it makes you happyit doesnt have to make sense to others

When you cant find the sunshinebe the sunshine

Either you run the day or let the day run you

When you focus on the goodthe good gets better

It takes the same energy to worry as it doesto be positive so use your energy to thinkpositive and positive things will happen

The one thing that doesnt abide by majority rule is a persons conscience

Make happiness a priority and be gentle with yourself in the process

College the best start to unfold lifes beauty

Goodbye to the mistakes weve made remember the laughs weve shared

Will never forget these years

People are capable at anytime in their lives of doing what they dream of

Nehal DixitStop measuring your degree of

productivity and replace it by degree ofpresence

Your time is limited so donrsquot waste it livingsomeone elsersquos life Donrsquot be trapped by

dogma ndash which is living with the results ofother peoplersquos thinking

I know that I will look back on these days as being the happiest of my life

Sometimes you will never know the value of a moment until it becomes a memory

Enjoyed college a lot it lasted almost as longas the lunch breaks

And thats a wrap on a degree where I acted like I knew what I was doing

The way to success holds a path of fight andIm sure to get it because look on the right rarr

They say the right hand is always powerful but so is my the one on the left larr

May every sunrise bring you hopeMay every sunset bring you peace

If you dont believe in yourself thenno one is going to believe in you So

Believe in Yourself

Be who you are and say what you feelbecause those who mind donrsquot matter and

those who matter donrsquot mind

Success is liking yourself liking what you do and liking how you do it

Happiness is a by-product of an effort to make someone else happy

If you are not willing to risk the unusual you will have to settle for the ordinary

Always keep it clean simple and precise

Hustle until you no longer have to introduce yourself

Dream it Wish it Do it

There are no limits to what you can accomplish except the limits you place

on your own thinking

The greatness of humanity is not in being human but in being humane

You will be exactly as happy as you decide

One thing to learn from the sun is thatwhenever a cloud tries to hinder itslight it finds its own path to shine

Excellence is not achieved - it is aspired to and trekked towards The tougher the trek

the better the views

I think the day we figure out everythingabout our lives is the day we die

Finding your magic can be scary but owning it will be EUPHORIA

An approximate answer to the right problem is worth a good deal more than

an exact answer to an approximate problem

Our greatest weakness lies in giving up The most certain way to succeed is always to try just one more time

The aim is to live happily heal throughevery situation and learn everything new

with every step taken

Believe in progress not perfection

Shreya WahiAnjali Upahyay

Every moment is a fresh beginning

Small steps in the right direction can turn out to be the biggest steps of your life

Payal Swathy SajeevIf you have only one smile in you

give it to the people you love

If you are working on something that youreally care about you donrsquot have to be pushed

The vision pulls you

Croxton and Cowden defines statistics as the science of collection presentation analysis andinterpretation of numerical data Progressively the Statistics subject come to be more and more popular and its application hasbecome more extensive Now almost there is no field of human activity where statistics are not usedNowadays it is used by economists businessmen scientists administrators etc To be more preciseabout the importance of statistics in our life lets discuss some astonishing reasons that we haveoverheard on several occasions

1 Everyone lookout for weather forecasting Have you ever thought how do you acquire thatinformation There are some computer models constructed on the basis of statistical conceptsThese computer models relate past weather with the present weather and predict future weather

2 Statistics frequently used by the researchers They use their statistical skills to collect therelevant data Otherwise it results in a loss of money time and data

3 What do you understand by insurance Everyone has some kind of insurance whether it ismedical home or any other insurance Several businesses use statistical models based on anindividual application to calculate the risk of giving insurance Life tables are indispensable for thesolution of all questions relating to the duration of human life 4 Statistic plays significant role in financial market Statistics are the key of how traders andbusinessmen invest and make money

5 Statistics play a big role in the medical field For testing the efficacy of a manufacturing druginjection or medicine for controlling curing specific ailments most of the applications of medicalfields lies in using the tests of significance (more precisely studentrsquos t-test) The testing of theeffectiveness of a medicine by the manufacturing concern is a must since only after theeffectiveness of the medicine is proven by the sound statistical techniques that it will venture tomanufacture it on a large scale and bring it out in the market By statistical techniques (t and Fsignificance tests) comparative study of different medicines can also be made

(18)

6 In industry Statistical techniques are used in quality testing Companies manufacture manyproducts on a daily basis and every company make sure that they sell the best quality items Butcompanies cannot test all the products so they use sampling techniques which are a very importantaspect of statistical theory 7 We make variety of predictions in daily life For examples we keep the alarm for the morningwhen we donrsquot know that we will be alive in the morning or not Here we use statistics basics to makepredictions

8 Using statistics concepts doctors predict disease Suppose a survey shows that 75-80people have cancer and not able to find the reason Where the statistics is involved there you canhave a better idea on how the cancer may affect your body

9 News reporter makes a prediction of winner for elections based on political campaigns Herestatistics play a very important role to find out who will form the government 10 Statistics data allow us to collect the information around the world The internet is a devisewhich help us to collect the information The fundamental behind the internet is based on statisticsand mathematics concepts 11 Not only in peace times but in war times also statistics can be used very effectively It ispractically not possible to face a war without the factual data concerning the military strength of theenemy in terms of manpower military tanks war aeroplanes missiles ammunition etc

BIOSTATISTICS is the application of statisticalmethods in studies in biology andencompasses the design of experiments thecollection of data from them and the analysisand interpretation of data The data comes froma wide range of sources including genomicstudies experiments with cells and organismsand clinical trials Biostatistics is the applicationof statistical principles to questions andproblems in medicine public health or biologyOne can imagine that it might be of interest tocharacterize a given population with respect tothe proportion who has asthma and it wouldalso be important to estimate the magnitude ofthese problems over time or perhaps in differentlocations Statistics is a science of compilingclassifying and tabulating numerical data andexpressing the results in a mathematical andgraphical form whereas biostatistics is thebranch of statistics concerned with themathematical facts and data related to biologicalevents

Francis Galton created the statistical conceptcorrelation Sir Galton for the first time usedstatistical tools to study differences amonghuman population He also invented the use ofquestionnaires surveys for collecting data onhuman communities Biostatistics are the eventand application of statistical method to a goodrange of topic in biology It encompasses theplanning of biological experiments the gatheringand analysis of knowledge from thoseexperiments and therefore the interpretation ofthe results Biostatistics is sometimesdistinguished from the field of biometry basedupon whether applications are in the healthsciences (bio statistics) or in broader biology(biometry example agriculture ecology wildlifebiology) More and more things are nowmeasured quantitatively in medicine and publichealth There is a great deal of inherent variationin most biological processes Public health andmedicine are becoming increasingly quantitative

(20)

It is used to test whether the differencebetween two populations is real or by chanceoccurrence to study the correlation betweenattributes in the same population and toevaluate the achievements of public healthprograms Biostatistics has applications in allthe branches of life sciences such as formapping chromosomes for studying thebehavior of genes in a population and forconduction of drug treatment trails etcBiostatistics deals with data arising frombiomedical research It remains a very activeresearch area with complicated time-to-eventdata and missing data emerging in applicationareas including medicine geneticsneuroscience and engineering Recentadvances in biomedical research have creatednew challenges and opportunities forstatisticians and data scientists For examplebig data analysis precision medicine artificialintelligence causal inference and other newresearch fields have inspired data scientists todevelop modern statistical methods andinnovative inference procedures

As technology progresses the physicianencounters more and more quantitative ratherthan descriptive information In one sensestatistics is the language of assembling andhandling quantitative material Even if onersquosconcern is only with the results of other peoplersquosmanipulation and assemblage of data it isimportant to achieve some understanding of thislanguage in order to interpret their resultsproperly Statistics pervades the medicalliterature As a consequence of the increasinglyquantitative nature of public health and medicineand its reliance on statistical methodology themedical literature is replete with reports in whichstatistical techniques are used extensivelyBiostatistics is used to determine how diseasesdevelop progress and spread

For example biostatisticians use statistics topredict the behavior of an illness like flu It is usedto help predict the mortality rate the symptomsand even the time of year people might get it

Over 50 years ago there was a subject whichwas unnoticed and mainly focused on the studyand analysis of data Statisticians urgedacademic statistics to transcend its boundariesbeyond the realm of theoretical statistics Morestress was laid on data presentation Datascience is a discipline which is guided bycomputing informatics operation researchmathematics and statistics

Statistics is treated as the most important tool insorting and analysing data It is beneficial ingiving a deeper vision of the data Statisticswidely depends upon experiments and surveysWith the help of descriptive statisticscalculations like mean median etc can bedone on the data On the other hand inferentialstatistics helps in drawing inferences andconclusions from the population Both domainsof statistics play a very important role in DataScience In order to get a structured data andmaking predictions statistical methods and toolsare very essential They are able to carry outmany analytical tasks

Statistical Analysis is the study of surveying agiven set of data and observing patterns andtrends It is used in research fields to createstatistical models for performing certainexperiments on a population

The focus is to gather information from thesmallest quantity of data The experimentsinvolve accurate calculations and therefore giverespective results Statistics forms the base ofData Science It requires optimization of hugedatabases which is achieved with the help ofdifferent statistical tools In todayrsquos data drivenworld Data Science is turning out to be one ofthe most demanded professions Almost all firmsand companies are in search of data scientistsas the data keeps on piling up and the need ofinterpreting analysing and cleaning it is risingThe ultimate aim of Statistics and Data Scienceis to extricate cognizance from large amounts ofdata

Whenever the word lsquobusinessrsquo is heard lsquosalesrsquo isthe word which comes to our mind next and whatexactly assists sales is STATISTICS Donrsquotbelieve me but I am sure after reading the articleyou would all agree to my point too So what doesa businessman do He manufactures and sellsthe goods produced to the public but both ofthese basic functions of the businessman cannotbe transcended without the help of statistics toolssuch as survey statistics driven softwares tocollect and analyse the demand of the customerand to what extent ie the quantity in which it isrequired in order to maximize their total revenueThe graphs and the tables formed ie the statshelp them to know the exact condition of themarket and its inclination so that they could comeout with offers and discounts in order to attractpublic towards their product maximizing theirsales The businessmen who is believed to bevery quick and accurate in decision making is allassisted by statistics at every point fromanalysing their sales profit margins wages of theemployees the improvements required in theproduct the billing counters are all carriedforward with the help of statistical tools Thefinancial resources required for investing in thebusiness are also arranged according to theassistance given by the data analysts Themarketing and advertisement of the products alsoneeds statistics Now you would be thinking how

amp its regular maintenance is all handled bystatistical applications In order to calculate theaverage mean median loss profit and all theother commerce related terms in businessesdealing with large amount of data is all handledby statisticians Statistics also helps inmaintaining employee performancemanagement A manager collects data aboutemployee productivity such as the number oftasks completed or the number of unitsproduced He or she must analyse data to findways in which an employee should improve toachieve maximum productivity Manycompanies also collect data about employeeengagement and happiness on the job whichcan be tracked to not only keep workersmotivated but ensure they dont leave for otherpositions elsewhere This helps in increasingthe efficiency of the employees and also createsa healthy working environment I have listed lotof points to prove the importance of statistics inbusinesses and hope that you will now agree towhat I mentioned in the beginning of the article

Whenever a method of marketing is thought thepercentage of people to get influenced the agegroup to target the kind of offers to be laid downare all done through statistics You might haveheard that now data is the new oil that means lifeis all surrounded with data and for the data andthe demand for its upkeep and analysis the dataanalysts are required and in big organizationswho actually target all age groups and sell allkinds of products on a large scale have a largedatabase not only of the customers but also oftheir n number of employees So an organizationis incomplete without data and where there isdata there is statistics In fact I would say thatan organization isnrsquot an organization if they donot have data and its proper upkeep in such acase the company will surely drain out so thisactually proves how important statistics hasbecome in the business point of view Thebanking sector canrsquot function without statisticsand this banking business forms the backbone ofthe country since all the customers of the bankhave loads of data for a particular bank account

Statistics help in

Measuring the stability of drugs-II) Production of drugs according to demandsIII) Effectiveness of drugsIV) Quality control of drugs V) Marketing of drugs VI) Testing the side effects of the drug with thehelp of data VII) Going through the procedure of approvaland public distribution of drugs

Statistics in developing a drug

A lot of statistics tools are used duringproduction clinical trials and marketing andpublic distribution of drugs-1 Average (mean median and mode) Usedduring experiments like stability testingcombination of chemicals and checking acidity orbasicity of solutions to calculate mean averageresults2 Standard deviation and variance It is ameasure of testing precision Can be used toevaluate precision at various points in a processor to evaluate the precision between two differentmethods of the experiment3 Q test for rejecting data It is used to checkoutliers in data ie to check unusual deviation ina data set to see if it can be statistically rejected

4 Confidence limits It helps in finding theprobability of the true value being within acalculable range It makes use of multiplyingstandard deviation with studentrsquos t-factor thatdetermines the confidence interval of theobservation at the stated confidence level5 t F Chi-square and other tests Helps incomparing the results of two data sets For egside effects of different medication in the samepopulation6 Correlation Helps to detect the relationbetween two attributes of a data for eg howthe effect of a medicine increases or decreasesdue to the change in dosage how increase ordecrease in temperature affects the stability ofcertain medication

Clinical Trials

Clinical trials are research studies that evaluatenew ways to improve treatments and quality oflife for people with disease and in presentscenario global pandemic COVID-19 Resultsfrom Clinical trials help develop

1 New drugsvaccines 2 New diagnostic tools 3 New clinical procedures

Participants volunteer for clinical trials

(28)

In this method of stratified random sampling isused to divide the volunteers into different stratabased on shared attributes or characteristicssuch as gender medical conditions and otherspecifics These stratarsquos are used in differentphases of clinical trials

Clinical trials have 4 phases

Before trial begins volunteers need tounderstand the potential benefits and potentialrisks before participating in clinical trials thatrsquoswhy pre-clinical phase is conducted to test thenew treatment on animals and healthyvolunteers This part comes under descriptivestatistics where we are using the observed(benefits and risks) for further research Phase 1- In this new treatment is tested for thefirst time to know how treatment affects thebody to determine a safe dose range forvaccine and their side effects It involvesrelatively 20-80 volunteers Stats approach-Association analysis is performed to capture thecorrelations between drug therapeuticindications and side-effects In order to achievethis goal we adopted Fishers exact test whichis a widely used approach for measuring thesignificance of the association between twonominal variables For example to test thesignificance of the association between drugtherapeutic indications A and drug side effect B

Phase 2- The study involves how well a newtreatment or combination of treatment goes wellwith certain types of patients It involves up to300 patient volunteers For example out oftotal cancer patients half of the patients areselected randomly and are given cancertreatment along with new vaccine and other halfare given cancer treatment along with standardtreatment of corona virus Now side effects inboth the cases are noted Aim is to determinewhich combination of treatment will have lessside effects Chi- square test is used tocompare the side effects in both the cases Phase 3- In this phase effectiveness of addinga new treatment to the standard treatment isstudied 100-1000 volunteers participate in thisphase Stats approach- Participants arerandomly split into two groups 1st group(treatment group) receives the standardtreatment + new vaccine and 2nd group (controlgroup) receives standard treatment + placebo(a treatment that looks identical to the newtreatment but contains no active ingredient) Inthis phase mean time taken to develop antibodies in both the groups are compared usingZ-test (Test of significance for difference inmeans)

Phase 4- In this phase no volunteers areinvolved researchersrsquo monitor drug safety andeffectiveness It involves optimal usage

ldquoCollege life is known as one of the most memorable years of astudentrsquos life exposing them to new experiences like meeting new

people learning new things exploring places etcrdquo

A registered clinical psychologist in Honk Kongnamed Zanonia Chiu said - ldquoGoing to school hadbeen a struggle for some children (withdepression) prior to the pandemic but at leastthey had school routines to stick with Now thatschools are closed some lock themselves upinside their rooms for weeks refusing to takeshowers eat or leave their beds For somechildren with depression there will beconsiderable difficulties adjusting back to normallife when college resumesrdquo and according to anonline survey conducted with the study periodfrom April 2020 to May 2020 - Total 531372 and 243 had symptoms of depressionanxiety and stress respectively with varyingseverities (N=727)The conclusion of the surveyindicated that COVID-19 is building psychologicaldistress among vulnerable college students asthey are forced to stay home along withworsening financial situations lifestyle changesfamily situations and time spent on variousactivities

Sounds so interesting and happening right Itis true indeed but along with stressful timeaside Along with the perks of enjoyingfreedom more than ever there comesacademic pressure tasks of separation fromfamilies career building futureresponsibilities etc Boarding on with thecollege life is a stressful time for manystudents thereby affecting their mental healthMental health problems are very commonamong college students and have been anincreasing concern However the COVID-19pandemic situation has brought this vulnerablepopulation into renewed focus Following thepandemic schools colleges offices andalmost every place that involved humaninteraction was shut It is important to note thatcollegeschool or even a normal routine areimportant coping mechanisms for youngpeople with mental health issues and wheneverything is shut down they lose an anchor inlife and their symptoms could relapse

Mental health among students is a big concernhowever ldquoUNTREATEDrdquo mental illnesses are amuch bigger and exponentially growingconcern Reaching out is an important step formental health issues to be addressed andtreated but reach out to who This is the pointwhere our institution should take over Collegesplay a big role in this stage Colleges doaddress this issue through means of orientationsessions and workshops but there is still a needto address mental health more directly Themethods to address mental health issuesshould be accessible feasible and affordablefor the students For example at NorthwesternUniversity student feedback led orientationenabled organizers to shift their focus fromexpert speakers to student testimonials Meansto address the issue vary from traditionalpresentations and panel discussions to roleplays small group discussions etc Herestudents learn how to recognize mental illnesssymptoms where to find resources andsupport and how to talk to friends who mightbe struggling

The findings of this study highlighted theurgent need to develop interventions andpreventive strategies to address the mentalhealth of college students Another InterviewSurvey study conducted by the Journal ofMedical Internet Research highlighted that of195 students 138 (71) indicated increasedstress and anxiety due to the COVID-19outbreak Multiple stressors were identified thatcontributed to the increased levels of stressanxiety and depressive thoughts amongstudents These included fear and worry abouttheir own health and of their loved ones(177195 91 reported negative impacts ofthe pandemic) difficulty in concentrating(173195 89) disruptions to sleepingpatterns (168195 86) decreased socialinteractions due to physical distancing(167195 86) and increased concerns onacademic performance (159195 82) Tocope with stress and anxiety participants havesought support from others and helpedthemselves by adopting either negative orpositive coping mechanisms It is important toknow that creating awareness about any issueis never enough action is what is neededTaking leave from workschool because of a fluor a fracture is acceptable and might even helpin the process of cure and healing howevertaking time off because of stress from a mentalillness such as anxiety or depressionunfortunately is not

lsquoOnline classrsquo is a term which most of us werenrsquotfamiliar with Before this pandemic we neverthought of getting education at home Covid hasaffected all of our lives In past pursuingeducation meant going to the schoolcollege Butnow the whole scenario has changed Childrenare studying and attending classes from homeJust like there are two sides of a coin onlineclasses also have some advantages anddisadvantages

Starting from the advantages it saves time forboth students and teachers as they donrsquot haveto travel All they have to do is to join throughtheir mobiles or laptops Secondly studentsdonrsquot have to necessarily buy books from theshops like they had to do in offline classesbecause they are given pdfs from which they canstudy Therefore it saves money Third it can beattended from anywhere in the world Unlike inthe offline classes where we had to gather at aparticular place Fourth computer basedpractical can be easily understood as studentscan share their screen with teachers Also it iseasy for teachers to explain a topic with the helpof pictures or animations which can be easilyfound on the internet

Last but not the least Parents can keep an eyeon their children whether they are studyingproperly or not

Apart from advantages it has somedisadvantages too First sitting beside thecomputer or mobile for hours affects the eyesightof both students and teachers Doctors arereporting many cases of eyestrain amongchildren since the online classes have startedSecondly students are becoming lazy as theydonrsquot have to go out of their home Like theproverb lsquoAll work and no play makes Jack a dullboyrsquo is really happening Third students canbunk in the online classes easily As they haveno fear of punishment they learned to disobeyand disrespect teachers Fourth students havebeen given lots of assignments as a result ofwhich most students are copying othersassignments and are not learning anything newFifth it is very difficult to communicate asteachers cannot give attention to each studentLastly it can be concluded that no matter howthe classes are being held a student must bededicated and sincere towards their studiesAfter all onersquos future depends on what they do intheir present

An actuary is a business executive professionally trained in the mathematical sciences Actuariesspecialize in the evaluation of financial riskmdashmost often in the context of life health and casualtyinsurance where they design analyse and refine varied programs to meet the insurance needs ofsociety A growing number of actuaries work in the areas of assetliability management and risk managementSome of these actuaries are employed by investment and consulting firms others are employed byinsurance companies

Actuaries have been called financial architects and social mathematicians because their combinedanalytical and business skills help solve a growing variety of financial and social problems Theactuarial profession is a demanding yet rewarding career choice

In a world bombarded with numerical information informed decisions rely on the ability to separatefact from fiction by applying valid statistical analyses and visualizations Statisticians can providecrucial guidance in determining what information is reliable and which predictions may be trustedThey often help search for clues to the solution of a scientific mystery and sometimes keepinvestigators from being misled by false impressions

Thousands of statisticians work in medicine law agriculture public policy marketing manufacturingengineering and other fields in the social and natural sciences The diversity of applications is anexciting aspect of the field and is one more reason why the demand for well-trained statisticianscontinues to be strong

Poetry

Contributed by Dr Komal Goel

(41)

Contributed by Dr Meenu Goel

The curtain lifts on Bryant Elementary Schools Spring Recorder Recital Ninety third-graders fumble with their instruments take a breath

and blow Their parents braced breathe too

as Hot Crossed Buns emerges a little scattershot -- the Normal Distribution brought to life

By Go Tell Aunt Rhodie the audience

is moved by their sheer pretty-goodness though one kid knocks her music to the floor

and another squeaks to demonstrate

the tail two standard deviations below the mean The curve implies

that somewhere on stage another kid

just played a note so sweet he might shatter Mrs Wedermeyers glasses And if

there are a mother and father who think

that child is theirs may they be forgiven even if the child shining in their eyes

is moving his fingers slightly out of rhythm

even if hes never led the bell curve in his life In consecutive measures of almost unison

its easy to believe these children are musicians

Their parents do so stirred by Ode to Joy they rise to their feet with the final phrase

clapping from the darkened auditorium

at once as one heroically like the parents theyve meant to be

EK NAYA SAFAR

Mubarak ho apko zindgi ka naya safar

Naya hai sheher nai hai dagar

Chut gaye kuch rishte purane

But donrsquot worry yaar mil jayenge naye diwane

Kuch tum jaise khuch tum se alag

So just smile and start a new life

Dosti yaari ko zara side mai rakh ke

Edhar gaur famiye janab

Course toh tumne acha chuna hai

Kuch socha hai ya ese hi liya hai

College mai admission jab hota hai

Toh andar khushi ke fuvare futne lagte hai

Lekin syllabus o dekh kar yeh bhi dagmagane lagte hai

Mana CP paas hai vahi maat ghumte rehna

Varna paper mai cafeacute ki menu sheet hi likhte rehna

Donrsquot take a chill pill coz yaha ki teachers hai thori strict

Just because they want you to be the best

Ab kya kare college ka har din mamuli nahi hota

Aur 9 se 4 sirf parai nahi hoti

Gumo firo esh karo but parna na bhulo

Mana es saal kuch zyada hi speed breakers hai

But the best part is hum sab bhi toh sath hai

PONDERINGAll of humanity is but a set of numbers You and I

are nothing more than a statisticJust think about any decision you had to take

recently No matter your choice you might findyourself ending up only as an infinitesimal

decimal in the final percentage of a statisticianrsquosdiscourse Let me give you an example pertinent

to the world we live in today Say yoursquore arepublican and have to decide whether to wear a

mask or not Naturally your political instinctmight warn you against it However you might

still be inclined to wear one because yoursquoregenuinely scared about what the ldquoliberalsrdquo have

to say about the SARS-COV-2 Now now letrsquos notgo off-topic here I know you might be wondering

what yoursquod do if you were in a Republicanrsquos shoesBut thatrsquos not the point

In the end it seldom matters whether you are arepublican or a liberal especially in situations

like these What matters in the end is if you didgo out without wearing that infuriating

smothering mask And if you contracted thewretched virus because of it If yes hard luck

Yoursquore nothing more than one of the 841 millionpeople who have it Thatrsquos all that people aroundthe world will see Not your gender not your ageand certainly not your political belief Of course

there will be studies about the correlation ofthese factors with the incidence rate of the

infections but thatrsquos another story altogether andnot one possibly as broad as the one we talk

aboutMoreover the correlation must not be

confused with causation Now perhaps thatrsquosa story for another day But think about it thisway whether you go to college or drop out of

high school whether you choose to live ordecide to die no matter the decision no

matter your inclination or choice whetheryou like it or not you will be nothing more

than a statisticIt might sound a bit gloomy to be honestWhen I first thought about it I felt almostinsignificant Like a tiny speck of dust in a

galaxy of stars Alas isnrsquot that all that we arethough

A pale blue dot in an ocean of stars Ourplanet one among millions or perhaps

billions of others All 78 billion of us fightingfor a place in the world knowing full well we

canrsquot all possibly have it It might makeanyone feel overwhelmed but therersquos

something about that that is so challenging itis almost inspiring We all know statistics andwe all know life But the true beauty of life lies

in the ability to defy statistics Only onequestion remains are you up for the

challenge

It wonrsquot be any exaggeration If itrsquos said that tools of statistician are used in almost all fields ofcalculation

Be it research finance sports marketing sales health care or population countingIt is a crucial process behind How we make discoveries in science

It always seems impossible until it is done

If it makes you happyit doesnt have to make sense to others

When you cant find the sunshinebe the sunshine

Either you run the day or let the day run you

When you focus on the goodthe good gets better

It takes the same energy to worry as it doesto be positive so use your energy to thinkpositive and positive things will happen

The one thing that doesnt abide by majority rule is a persons conscience

Make happiness a priority and be gentle with yourself in the process

College the best start to unfold lifes beauty

Goodbye to the mistakes weve made remember the laughs weve shared

Will never forget these years

People are capable at anytime in their lives of doing what they dream of

Success is liking yourself liking what you do and liking how you do it

Happiness is a by-product of an effort to make someone else happy

If you are not willing to risk the unusual you will have to settle for the ordinary

Always keep it clean simple and precise

Hustle until you no longer have to introduce yourself

Croxton and Cowden defines statistics as the science of collection presentation analysis andinterpretation of numerical data Progressively the Statistics subject come to be more and more popular and its application hasbecome more extensive Now almost there is no field of human activity where statistics are not usedNowadays it is used by economists businessmen scientists administrators etc To be more preciseabout the importance of statistics in our life lets discuss some astonishing reasons that we haveoverheard on several occasions

1 Everyone lookout for weather forecasting Have you ever thought how do you acquire thatinformation There are some computer models constructed on the basis of statistical conceptsThese computer models relate past weather with the present weather and predict future weather

2 Statistics frequently used by the researchers They use their statistical skills to collect therelevant data Otherwise it results in a loss of money time and data

3 What do you understand by insurance Everyone has some kind of insurance whether it ismedical home or any other insurance Several businesses use statistical models based on anindividual application to calculate the risk of giving insurance Life tables are indispensable for thesolution of all questions relating to the duration of human life 4 Statistic plays significant role in financial market Statistics are the key of how traders andbusinessmen invest and make money

5 Statistics play a big role in the medical field For testing the efficacy of a manufacturing druginjection or medicine for controlling curing specific ailments most of the applications of medicalfields lies in using the tests of significance (more precisely studentrsquos t-test) The testing of theeffectiveness of a medicine by the manufacturing concern is a must since only after theeffectiveness of the medicine is proven by the sound statistical techniques that it will venture tomanufacture it on a large scale and bring it out in the market By statistical techniques (t and Fsignificance tests) comparative study of different medicines can also be made

(18)

6 In industry Statistical techniques are used in quality testing Companies manufacture manyproducts on a daily basis and every company make sure that they sell the best quality items Butcompanies cannot test all the products so they use sampling techniques which are a very importantaspect of statistical theory 7 We make variety of predictions in daily life For examples we keep the alarm for the morningwhen we donrsquot know that we will be alive in the morning or not Here we use statistics basics to makepredictions

8 Using statistics concepts doctors predict disease Suppose a survey shows that 75-80people have cancer and not able to find the reason Where the statistics is involved there you canhave a better idea on how the cancer may affect your body

9 News reporter makes a prediction of winner for elections based on political campaigns Herestatistics play a very important role to find out who will form the government 10 Statistics data allow us to collect the information around the world The internet is a devisewhich help us to collect the information The fundamental behind the internet is based on statisticsand mathematics concepts 11 Not only in peace times but in war times also statistics can be used very effectively It ispractically not possible to face a war without the factual data concerning the military strength of theenemy in terms of manpower military tanks war aeroplanes missiles ammunition etc

BIOSTATISTICS is the application of statisticalmethods in studies in biology andencompasses the design of experiments thecollection of data from them and the analysisand interpretation of data The data comes froma wide range of sources including genomicstudies experiments with cells and organismsand clinical trials Biostatistics is the applicationof statistical principles to questions andproblems in medicine public health or biologyOne can imagine that it might be of interest tocharacterize a given population with respect tothe proportion who has asthma and it wouldalso be important to estimate the magnitude ofthese problems over time or perhaps in differentlocations Statistics is a science of compilingclassifying and tabulating numerical data andexpressing the results in a mathematical andgraphical form whereas biostatistics is thebranch of statistics concerned with themathematical facts and data related to biologicalevents

Francis Galton created the statistical conceptcorrelation Sir Galton for the first time usedstatistical tools to study differences amonghuman population He also invented the use ofquestionnaires surveys for collecting data onhuman communities Biostatistics are the eventand application of statistical method to a goodrange of topic in biology It encompasses theplanning of biological experiments the gatheringand analysis of knowledge from thoseexperiments and therefore the interpretation ofthe results Biostatistics is sometimesdistinguished from the field of biometry basedupon whether applications are in the healthsciences (bio statistics) or in broader biology(biometry example agriculture ecology wildlifebiology) More and more things are nowmeasured quantitatively in medicine and publichealth There is a great deal of inherent variationin most biological processes Public health andmedicine are becoming increasingly quantitative

(20)

It is used to test whether the differencebetween two populations is real or by chanceoccurrence to study the correlation betweenattributes in the same population and toevaluate the achievements of public healthprograms Biostatistics has applications in allthe branches of life sciences such as formapping chromosomes for studying thebehavior of genes in a population and forconduction of drug treatment trails etcBiostatistics deals with data arising frombiomedical research It remains a very activeresearch area with complicated time-to-eventdata and missing data emerging in applicationareas including medicine geneticsneuroscience and engineering Recentadvances in biomedical research have creatednew challenges and opportunities forstatisticians and data scientists For examplebig data analysis precision medicine artificialintelligence causal inference and other newresearch fields have inspired data scientists todevelop modern statistical methods andinnovative inference procedures

As technology progresses the physicianencounters more and more quantitative ratherthan descriptive information In one sensestatistics is the language of assembling andhandling quantitative material Even if onersquosconcern is only with the results of other peoplersquosmanipulation and assemblage of data it isimportant to achieve some understanding of thislanguage in order to interpret their resultsproperly Statistics pervades the medicalliterature As a consequence of the increasinglyquantitative nature of public health and medicineand its reliance on statistical methodology themedical literature is replete with reports in whichstatistical techniques are used extensivelyBiostatistics is used to determine how diseasesdevelop progress and spread

For example biostatisticians use statistics topredict the behavior of an illness like flu It is usedto help predict the mortality rate the symptomsand even the time of year people might get it

(21)

Over 50 years ago there was a subject whichwas unnoticed and mainly focused on the studyand analysis of data Statisticians urgedacademic statistics to transcend its boundariesbeyond the realm of theoretical statistics Morestress was laid on data presentation Datascience is a discipline which is guided bycomputing informatics operation researchmathematics and statistics

Statistics is treated as the most important tool insorting and analysing data It is beneficial ingiving a deeper vision of the data Statisticswidely depends upon experiments and surveysWith the help of descriptive statisticscalculations like mean median etc can bedone on the data On the other hand inferentialstatistics helps in drawing inferences andconclusions from the population Both domainsof statistics play a very important role in DataScience In order to get a structured data andmaking predictions statistical methods and toolsare very essential They are able to carry outmany analytical tasks

Statistical Analysis is the study of surveying agiven set of data and observing patterns andtrends It is used in research fields to createstatistical models for performing certainexperiments on a population

The focus is to gather information from thesmallest quantity of data The experimentsinvolve accurate calculations and therefore giverespective results Statistics forms the base ofData Science It requires optimization of hugedatabases which is achieved with the help ofdifferent statistical tools In todayrsquos data drivenworld Data Science is turning out to be one ofthe most demanded professions Almost all firmsand companies are in search of data scientistsas the data keeps on piling up and the need ofinterpreting analysing and cleaning it is risingThe ultimate aim of Statistics and Data Scienceis to extricate cognizance from large amounts ofdata

Whenever the word lsquobusinessrsquo is heard lsquosalesrsquo isthe word which comes to our mind next and whatexactly assists sales is STATISTICS Donrsquotbelieve me but I am sure after reading the articleyou would all agree to my point too So what doesa businessman do He manufactures and sellsthe goods produced to the public but both ofthese basic functions of the businessman cannotbe transcended without the help of statistics toolssuch as survey statistics driven softwares tocollect and analyse the demand of the customerand to what extent ie the quantity in which it isrequired in order to maximize their total revenueThe graphs and the tables formed ie the statshelp them to know the exact condition of themarket and its inclination so that they could comeout with offers and discounts in order to attractpublic towards their product maximizing theirsales The businessmen who is believed to bevery quick and accurate in decision making is allassisted by statistics at every point fromanalysing their sales profit margins wages of theemployees the improvements required in theproduct the billing counters are all carriedforward with the help of statistical tools Thefinancial resources required for investing in thebusiness are also arranged according to theassistance given by the data analysts Themarketing and advertisement of the products alsoneeds statistics Now you would be thinking how

amp its regular maintenance is all handled bystatistical applications In order to calculate theaverage mean median loss profit and all theother commerce related terms in businessesdealing with large amount of data is all handledby statisticians Statistics also helps inmaintaining employee performancemanagement A manager collects data aboutemployee productivity such as the number oftasks completed or the number of unitsproduced He or she must analyse data to findways in which an employee should improve toachieve maximum productivity Manycompanies also collect data about employeeengagement and happiness on the job whichcan be tracked to not only keep workersmotivated but ensure they dont leave for otherpositions elsewhere This helps in increasingthe efficiency of the employees and also createsa healthy working environment I have listed lotof points to prove the importance of statistics inbusinesses and hope that you will now agree towhat I mentioned in the beginning of the article

Whenever a method of marketing is thought thepercentage of people to get influenced the agegroup to target the kind of offers to be laid downare all done through statistics You might haveheard that now data is the new oil that means lifeis all surrounded with data and for the data andthe demand for its upkeep and analysis the dataanalysts are required and in big organizationswho actually target all age groups and sell allkinds of products on a large scale have a largedatabase not only of the customers but also oftheir n number of employees So an organizationis incomplete without data and where there isdata there is statistics In fact I would say thatan organization isnrsquot an organization if they donot have data and its proper upkeep in such acase the company will surely drain out so thisactually proves how important statistics hasbecome in the business point of view Thebanking sector canrsquot function without statisticsand this banking business forms the backbone ofthe country since all the customers of the bankhave loads of data for a particular bank account

Statistics is the science of learning from dataStatistical knowledge helps an individual to usethe proper methods for collecting data employthe correct analysis and present the resultseffectively Statistical analysis is thus used inalmost all fields to make sense out of the vastamount of data that is available Thus statisticalmethodologies are not only useful in drawingimportant results but also play a significant role inproducing new findings and understanding thework of others One such field which has wideuse of the statistical techniques andmethodologies is the Insurance Sector Insuranceis basically the business of risk as it involves thetransfer of risk from one party to another

The main incoming and outgoing source ofincome in the business of insurance is throughpremiums and claims respectively Manystatistical models are used to model claimsand losses Parameters for these distributionsare estimated using Method of momentMaximum likelihood estimates etc and thenGoodness of fit testis applied to check howwell our distribution fits to the data Timeseries model plays an important role inforecasting future values Statistics is used toanswer the most important questions for theinsurance industry What percentage ofpolicies are expected to payout How muchmoney the company must expect to payout inclaims Different methods of data collectioneither in primary or secondary form are usedto determine the required reserves premiumand future predictions Apart from this manystatistical methods for eg Linear modelmethod which uses regression as the maintool in determining the factors affectingpremiums Loss distribution method in whichhistogram and bar graphs are made tocompare different categories and complexstatistical tools such as Ruin Theory and Run-off triangles are used to develop newproducts absorb and evaluate risk and ruinwhen balancing claims reserves andpremiums Thus statistics plays anirreplaceable role in the life cycle ofinsurance business for both life and non-life insurance

Statistics help in

Measuring the stability of drugs-II) Production of drugs according to demandsIII) Effectiveness of drugsIV) Quality control of drugs V) Marketing of drugs VI) Testing the side effects of the drug with thehelp of data VII) Going through the procedure of approvaland public distribution of drugs

Statistics in developing a drug

A lot of statistics tools are used duringproduction clinical trials and marketing andpublic distribution of drugs-1 Average (mean median and mode) Usedduring experiments like stability testingcombination of chemicals and checking acidity orbasicity of solutions to calculate mean averageresults2 Standard deviation and variance It is ameasure of testing precision Can be used toevaluate precision at various points in a processor to evaluate the precision between two differentmethods of the experiment3 Q test for rejecting data It is used to checkoutliers in data ie to check unusual deviation ina data set to see if it can be statistically rejected

4 Confidence limits It helps in finding theprobability of the true value being within acalculable range It makes use of multiplyingstandard deviation with studentrsquos t-factor thatdetermines the confidence interval of theobservation at the stated confidence level5 t F Chi-square and other tests Helps incomparing the results of two data sets For egside effects of different medication in the samepopulation6 Correlation Helps to detect the relationbetween two attributes of a data for eg howthe effect of a medicine increases or decreasesdue to the change in dosage how increase ordecrease in temperature affects the stability ofcertain medication

Clinical Trials

Clinical trials are research studies that evaluatenew ways to improve treatments and quality oflife for people with disease and in presentscenario global pandemic COVID-19 Resultsfrom Clinical trials help develop

1 New drugsvaccines 2 New diagnostic tools 3 New clinical procedures

Participants volunteer for clinical trials

(28)

In this method of stratified random sampling isused to divide the volunteers into different stratabased on shared attributes or characteristicssuch as gender medical conditions and otherspecifics These stratarsquos are used in differentphases of clinical trials

Clinical trials have 4 phases

Before trial begins volunteers need tounderstand the potential benefits and potentialrisks before participating in clinical trials thatrsquoswhy pre-clinical phase is conducted to test thenew treatment on animals and healthyvolunteers This part comes under descriptivestatistics where we are using the observed(benefits and risks) for further research Phase 1- In this new treatment is tested for thefirst time to know how treatment affects thebody to determine a safe dose range forvaccine and their side effects It involvesrelatively 20-80 volunteers Stats approach-Association analysis is performed to capture thecorrelations between drug therapeuticindications and side-effects In order to achievethis goal we adopted Fishers exact test whichis a widely used approach for measuring thesignificance of the association between twonominal variables For example to test thesignificance of the association between drugtherapeutic indications A and drug side effect B

Phase 2- The study involves how well a newtreatment or combination of treatment goes wellwith certain types of patients It involves up to300 patient volunteers For example out oftotal cancer patients half of the patients areselected randomly and are given cancertreatment along with new vaccine and other halfare given cancer treatment along with standardtreatment of corona virus Now side effects inboth the cases are noted Aim is to determinewhich combination of treatment will have lessside effects Chi- square test is used tocompare the side effects in both the cases Phase 3- In this phase effectiveness of addinga new treatment to the standard treatment isstudied 100-1000 volunteers participate in thisphase Stats approach- Participants arerandomly split into two groups 1st group(treatment group) receives the standardtreatment + new vaccine and 2nd group (controlgroup) receives standard treatment + placebo(a treatment that looks identical to the newtreatment but contains no active ingredient) Inthis phase mean time taken to develop antibodies in both the groups are compared usingZ-test (Test of significance for difference inmeans)

Phase 4- In this phase no volunteers areinvolved researchersrsquo monitor drug safety andeffectiveness It involves optimal usage

lsquoOnline classrsquo is a term which most of us werenrsquotfamiliar with Before this pandemic we neverthought of getting education at home Covid hasaffected all of our lives In past pursuingeducation meant going to the schoolcollege Butnow the whole scenario has changed Childrenare studying and attending classes from homeJust like there are two sides of a coin onlineclasses also have some advantages anddisadvantages

Starting from the advantages it saves time forboth students and teachers as they donrsquot haveto travel All they have to do is to join throughtheir mobiles or laptops Secondly studentsdonrsquot have to necessarily buy books from theshops like they had to do in offline classesbecause they are given pdfs from which they canstudy Therefore it saves money Third it can beattended from anywhere in the world Unlike inthe offline classes where we had to gather at aparticular place Fourth computer basedpractical can be easily understood as studentscan share their screen with teachers Also it iseasy for teachers to explain a topic with the helpof pictures or animations which can be easilyfound on the internet

Last but not the least Parents can keep an eyeon their children whether they are studyingproperly or not

Apart from advantages it has somedisadvantages too First sitting beside thecomputer or mobile for hours affects the eyesightof both students and teachers Doctors arereporting many cases of eyestrain amongchildren since the online classes have startedSecondly students are becoming lazy as theydonrsquot have to go out of their home Like theproverb lsquoAll work and no play makes Jack a dullboyrsquo is really happening Third students canbunk in the online classes easily As they haveno fear of punishment they learned to disobeyand disrespect teachers Fourth students havebeen given lots of assignments as a result ofwhich most students are copying othersassignments and are not learning anything newFifth it is very difficult to communicate asteachers cannot give attention to each studentLastly it can be concluded that no matter howthe classes are being held a student must bededicated and sincere towards their studiesAfter all onersquos future depends on what they do intheir present

An actuary is a business executive professionally trained in the mathematical sciences Actuariesspecialize in the evaluation of financial riskmdashmost often in the context of life health and casualtyinsurance where they design analyse and refine varied programs to meet the insurance needs ofsociety A growing number of actuaries work in the areas of assetliability management and risk managementSome of these actuaries are employed by investment and consulting firms others are employed byinsurance companies

Actuaries have been called financial architects and social mathematicians because their combinedanalytical and business skills help solve a growing variety of financial and social problems Theactuarial profession is a demanding yet rewarding career choice

In a world bombarded with numerical information informed decisions rely on the ability to separatefact from fiction by applying valid statistical analyses and visualizations Statisticians can providecrucial guidance in determining what information is reliable and which predictions may be trustedThey often help search for clues to the solution of a scientific mystery and sometimes keepinvestigators from being misled by false impressions

Thousands of statisticians work in medicine law agriculture public policy marketing manufacturingengineering and other fields in the social and natural sciences The diversity of applications is anexciting aspect of the field and is one more reason why the demand for well-trained statisticianscontinues to be strong

Contributed by Dr Meenu Goel

The curtain lifts on Bryant Elementary Schools Spring Recorder Recital Ninety third-graders fumble with their instruments take a breath

and blow Their parents braced breathe too

as Hot Crossed Buns emerges a little scattershot -- the Normal Distribution brought to life

By Go Tell Aunt Rhodie the audience

is moved by their sheer pretty-goodness though one kid knocks her music to the floor

and another squeaks to demonstrate

the tail two standard deviations below the mean The curve implies

that somewhere on stage another kid

just played a note so sweet he might shatter Mrs Wedermeyers glasses And if

there are a mother and father who think

that child is theirs may they be forgiven even if the child shining in their eyes

is moving his fingers slightly out of rhythm

even if hes never led the bell curve in his life In consecutive measures of almost unison

its easy to believe these children are musicians

Their parents do so stirred by Ode to Joy they rise to their feet with the final phrase

clapping from the darkened auditorium

at once as one heroically like the parents theyve meant to be

EK NAYA SAFAR

Mubarak ho apko zindgi ka naya safar

Naya hai sheher nai hai dagar

Chut gaye kuch rishte purane

But donrsquot worry yaar mil jayenge naye diwane

Kuch tum jaise khuch tum se alag

So just smile and start a new life

Dosti yaari ko zara side mai rakh ke

Edhar gaur famiye janab

Course toh tumne acha chuna hai

Kuch socha hai ya ese hi liya hai

College mai admission jab hota hai

Toh andar khushi ke fuvare futne lagte hai

Lekin syllabus o dekh kar yeh bhi dagmagane lagte hai

Mana CP paas hai vahi maat ghumte rehna

Varna paper mai cafeacute ki menu sheet hi likhte rehna

Donrsquot take a chill pill coz yaha ki teachers hai thori strict

Just because they want you to be the best

Ab kya kare college ka har din mamuli nahi hota

Aur 9 se 4 sirf parai nahi hoti

Gumo firo esh karo but parna na bhulo

PONDERINGAll of humanity is but a set of numbers You and I

are nothing more than a statisticJust think about any decision you had to take

recently No matter your choice you might findyourself ending up only as an infinitesimal

decimal in the final percentage of a statisticianrsquosdiscourse Let me give you an example pertinent

to the world we live in today Say yoursquore arepublican and have to decide whether to wear a

mask or not Naturally your political instinctmight warn you against it However you might

still be inclined to wear one because yoursquoregenuinely scared about what the ldquoliberalsrdquo have

to say about the SARS-COV-2 Now now letrsquos notgo off-topic here I know you might be wondering

what yoursquod do if you were in a Republicanrsquos shoesBut thatrsquos not the point

In the end it seldom matters whether you are arepublican or a liberal especially in situations

like these What matters in the end is if you didgo out without wearing that infuriating

smothering mask And if you contracted thewretched virus because of it If yes hard luck

Yoursquore nothing more than one of the 841 millionpeople who have it Thatrsquos all that people aroundthe world will see Not your gender not your ageand certainly not your political belief Of course

there will be studies about the correlation ofthese factors with the incidence rate of the

infections but thatrsquos another story altogether andnot one possibly as broad as the one we talk

aboutMoreover the correlation must not be

confused with causation Now perhaps thatrsquosa story for another day But think about it thisway whether you go to college or drop out of

high school whether you choose to live ordecide to die no matter the decision no

matter your inclination or choice whetheryou like it or not you will be nothing more

than a statisticIt might sound a bit gloomy to be honestWhen I first thought about it I felt almostinsignificant Like a tiny speck of dust in a

galaxy of stars Alas isnrsquot that all that we arethough

A pale blue dot in an ocean of stars Ourplanet one among millions or perhaps

billions of others All 78 billion of us fightingfor a place in the world knowing full well we

canrsquot all possibly have it It might makeanyone feel overwhelmed but therersquos

something about that that is so challenging itis almost inspiring We all know statistics andwe all know life But the true beauty of life lies

in the ability to defy statistics Only onequestion remains are you up for the

challenge

It wonrsquot be any exaggeration If itrsquos said that tools of statistician are used in almost all fields ofcalculation

Be it research finance sports marketing sales health care or population countingIt is a crucial process behind How we make discoveries in science

Making decisions or claiming predictions It plays a crucial play in all situationsStats is involved everywhere from collection to interpretation From explanation to

presentationStatistics helps avoiding a wide variety of analytical traps By making sure that study follow

apt methods in all aspectsChallenging your own assumptions Or drawing data-based conclusions

Statistics is always there Making things crisp and clear

STATS STATS EVERYWHERE By Harshika Tyagi (3rd Year)

Donrsquot buy that lottery ticket Donrsquot wish for a fallen wicket

Donrsquot wish to ldquomake itrdquo in a dying world Donrsquot wish for either a boy or a girl

Donrsquot predict vivid sunshine or rain Donrsquot bother to cry or complain

Statistically speaking it may all be in vain If you didnrsquot make it the first time why try

again

And if you donrsquot buy wish try andpredict

Why also bother living the life you claim tohave lived

It always seems impossible until it is done

If it makes you happyit doesnt have to make sense to others

When you cant find the sunshinebe the sunshine

Either you run the day or let the day run you

When you focus on the goodthe good gets better

It takes the same energy to worry as it doesto be positive so use your energy to thinkpositive and positive things will happen

The one thing that doesnt abide by majority rule is a persons conscience

Make happiness a priority and be gentle with yourself in the process

College the best start to unfold lifes beauty

Goodbye to the mistakes weve made remember the laughs weve shared

Will never forget these years

People are capable at anytime in their lives of doing what they dream of

productivity and replace it by degree ofpresence

Conquer yourself not the world once you succeed in doing it the world will be all yours

Be who you are and say what you feel because in the end those who matter dont mind

and those who mind dont matter

Having charismatic and vibrant self is key tohappiness optimism and being systematic is

a way to success

When it rains look for rainbows when its dark look for stars

Believe you can and youre halfway there Fall in love with the process of becoming thevery best version of yourself

Rise above the storm and you will find sunshine

Do not change the path in front of your dreamswhatever happens do not break those dreams in yourmind You will find difficulties on every step but do

not leave the ground just to choose the stars

If people are trying to pull you down then you arealready better than them Just focus on your energies and

keep doing your best You will find happiness ) One more thing IF YOU DONT BETYOU CANT

WIN

memorableAlternative hypothesis College life is difficult and

Test Statistics Given the observations for threeyears and some crazy friends the p value of Hobeing true is found to be greater than alpha

For all alpha level of laughters and fun we failto reject null hypothesis

friendsSo make friends and dont give up there is a lot more

you can achieve in your life ahead

May every sunrise bring you hopeMay every sunset bring you peace

If you dont believe in yourself thenno one is going to believe in you So

Believe in Yourself

Be who you are and say what you feelbecause those who mind donrsquot matter and

those who matter donrsquot mind

Success is liking yourself liking what you do and liking how you do it

Happiness is a by-product of an effort to make someone else happy

If you are not willing to risk the unusual you will have to settle for the ordinary

Always keep it clean simple and precise

Hustle until you no longer have to introduce yourself

Dream it Wish it Do it

There are no limits to what you can accomplish except the limits you place

on your own thinking

The greatness of humanity is not in being human but in being humane

You will be exactly as happy as you decide

One thing to learn from the sun is thatwhenever a cloud tries to hinder itslight it finds its own path to shine

Excellence is not achieved - it is aspired to and trekked towards The tougher the trek

the better the views

I think the day we figure out everythingabout our lives is the day we die

Finding your magic can be scary but owning it will be EUPHORIA

An approximate answer to the right problem is worth a good deal more than

an exact answer to an approximate problem

Our greatest weakness lies in giving up The most certain way to succeed is always to try just one more time

The aim is to live happily heal throughevery situation and learn everything new

with every step taken

Believe in progress not perfection

It is one of my greatest accomplishments Receiving the Medal from theHonrsquoble Education Minister Shri Ramesh Pokhriyal was a matter of pride Ifeel so happy seeing my parents and teachers being proud of me I surelyknow that whenever Irsquoll need some help in the future my teachers willalways be there to guide me The only regret is that we didnrsquot get a chance to greet the teachers and ourfellow classmates one last time due to the pandemic But keeping thataside I will always cherish my journey Thank you Mata Sundri College forthe amazing experience

Croxton and Cowden defines statistics as the science of collection presentation analysis andinterpretation of numerical data Progressively the Statistics subject come to be more and more popular and its application hasbecome more extensive Now almost there is no field of human activity where statistics are not usedNowadays it is used by economists businessmen scientists administrators etc To be more preciseabout the importance of statistics in our life lets discuss some astonishing reasons that we haveoverheard on several occasions

1 Everyone lookout for weather forecasting Have you ever thought how do you acquire thatinformation There are some computer models constructed on the basis of statistical conceptsThese computer models relate past weather with the present weather and predict future weather

2 Statistics frequently used by the researchers They use their statistical skills to collect therelevant data Otherwise it results in a loss of money time and data

3 What do you understand by insurance Everyone has some kind of insurance whether it ismedical home or any other insurance Several businesses use statistical models based on anindividual application to calculate the risk of giving insurance Life tables are indispensable for thesolution of all questions relating to the duration of human life 4 Statistic plays significant role in financial market Statistics are the key of how traders andbusinessmen invest and make money

5 Statistics play a big role in the medical field For testing the efficacy of a manufacturing druginjection or medicine for controlling curing specific ailments most of the applications of medicalfields lies in using the tests of significance (more precisely studentrsquos t-test) The testing of theeffectiveness of a medicine by the manufacturing concern is a must since only after theeffectiveness of the medicine is proven by the sound statistical techniques that it will venture tomanufacture it on a large scale and bring it out in the market By statistical techniques (t and Fsignificance tests) comparative study of different medicines can also be made

(18)

6 In industry Statistical techniques are used in quality testing Companies manufacture manyproducts on a daily basis and every company make sure that they sell the best quality items Butcompanies cannot test all the products so they use sampling techniques which are a very importantaspect of statistical theory 7 We make variety of predictions in daily life For examples we keep the alarm for the morningwhen we donrsquot know that we will be alive in the morning or not Here we use statistics basics to makepredictions

8 Using statistics concepts doctors predict disease Suppose a survey shows that 75-80people have cancer and not able to find the reason Where the statistics is involved there you canhave a better idea on how the cancer may affect your body

9 News reporter makes a prediction of winner for elections based on political campaigns Herestatistics play a very important role to find out who will form the government 10 Statistics data allow us to collect the information around the world The internet is a devisewhich help us to collect the information The fundamental behind the internet is based on statisticsand mathematics concepts 11 Not only in peace times but in war times also statistics can be used very effectively It ispractically not possible to face a war without the factual data concerning the military strength of theenemy in terms of manpower military tanks war aeroplanes missiles ammunition etc

BIOSTATISTICS is the application of statisticalmethods in studies in biology andencompasses the design of experiments thecollection of data from them and the analysisand interpretation of data The data comes froma wide range of sources including genomicstudies experiments with cells and organismsand clinical trials Biostatistics is the applicationof statistical principles to questions andproblems in medicine public health or biologyOne can imagine that it might be of interest tocharacterize a given population with respect tothe proportion who has asthma and it wouldalso be important to estimate the magnitude ofthese problems over time or perhaps in differentlocations Statistics is a science of compilingclassifying and tabulating numerical data andexpressing the results in a mathematical andgraphical form whereas biostatistics is thebranch of statistics concerned with themathematical facts and data related to biologicalevents

Francis Galton created the statistical conceptcorrelation Sir Galton for the first time usedstatistical tools to study differences amonghuman population He also invented the use ofquestionnaires surveys for collecting data onhuman communities Biostatistics are the eventand application of statistical method to a goodrange of topic in biology It encompasses theplanning of biological experiments the gatheringand analysis of knowledge from thoseexperiments and therefore the interpretation ofthe results Biostatistics is sometimesdistinguished from the field of biometry basedupon whether applications are in the healthsciences (bio statistics) or in broader biology(biometry example agriculture ecology wildlifebiology) More and more things are nowmeasured quantitatively in medicine and publichealth There is a great deal of inherent variationin most biological processes Public health andmedicine are becoming increasingly quantitative

(20)

It is used to test whether the differencebetween two populations is real or by chanceoccurrence to study the correlation betweenattributes in the same population and toevaluate the achievements of public healthprograms Biostatistics has applications in allthe branches of life sciences such as formapping chromosomes for studying thebehavior of genes in a population and forconduction of drug treatment trails etcBiostatistics deals with data arising frombiomedical research It remains a very activeresearch area with complicated time-to-eventdata and missing data emerging in applicationareas including medicine geneticsneuroscience and engineering Recentadvances in biomedical research have creatednew challenges and opportunities forstatisticians and data scientists For examplebig data analysis precision medicine artificialintelligence causal inference and other newresearch fields have inspired data scientists todevelop modern statistical methods andinnovative inference procedures

As technology progresses the physicianencounters more and more quantitative ratherthan descriptive information In one sensestatistics is the language of assembling andhandling quantitative material Even if onersquosconcern is only with the results of other peoplersquosmanipulation and assemblage of data it isimportant to achieve some understanding of thislanguage in order to interpret their resultsproperly Statistics pervades the medicalliterature As a consequence of the increasinglyquantitative nature of public health and medicineand its reliance on statistical methodology themedical literature is replete with reports in whichstatistical techniques are used extensivelyBiostatistics is used to determine how diseasesdevelop progress and spread

For example biostatisticians use statistics topredict the behavior of an illness like flu It is usedto help predict the mortality rate the symptomsand even the time of year people might get it

Over 50 years ago there was a subject whichwas unnoticed and mainly focused on the studyand analysis of data Statisticians urgedacademic statistics to transcend its boundariesbeyond the realm of theoretical statistics Morestress was laid on data presentation Datascience is a discipline which is guided bycomputing informatics operation researchmathematics and statistics

Statistics is treated as the most important tool insorting and analysing data It is beneficial ingiving a deeper vision of the data Statisticswidely depends upon experiments and surveysWith the help of descriptive statisticscalculations like mean median etc can bedone on the data On the other hand inferentialstatistics helps in drawing inferences andconclusions from the population Both domainsof statistics play a very important role in DataScience In order to get a structured data andmaking predictions statistical methods and toolsare very essential They are able to carry outmany analytical tasks

Statistical Analysis is the study of surveying agiven set of data and observing patterns andtrends It is used in research fields to createstatistical models for performing certainexperiments on a population

The focus is to gather information from thesmallest quantity of data The experimentsinvolve accurate calculations and therefore giverespective results Statistics forms the base ofData Science It requires optimization of hugedatabases which is achieved with the help ofdifferent statistical tools In todayrsquos data drivenworld Data Science is turning out to be one ofthe most demanded professions Almost all firmsand companies are in search of data scientistsas the data keeps on piling up and the need ofinterpreting analysing and cleaning it is risingThe ultimate aim of Statistics and Data Scienceis to extricate cognizance from large amounts ofdata

Whenever the word lsquobusinessrsquo is heard lsquosalesrsquo isthe word which comes to our mind next and whatexactly assists sales is STATISTICS Donrsquotbelieve me but I am sure after reading the articleyou would all agree to my point too So what doesa businessman do He manufactures and sellsthe goods produced to the public but both ofthese basic functions of the businessman cannotbe transcended without the help of statistics toolssuch as survey statistics driven softwares tocollect and analyse the demand of the customerand to what extent ie the quantity in which it isrequired in order to maximize their total revenueThe graphs and the tables formed ie the statshelp them to know the exact condition of themarket and its inclination so that they could comeout with offers and discounts in order to attractpublic towards their product maximizing theirsales The businessmen who is believed to bevery quick and accurate in decision making is allassisted by statistics at every point fromanalysing their sales profit margins wages of theemployees the improvements required in theproduct the billing counters are all carriedforward with the help of statistical tools Thefinancial resources required for investing in thebusiness are also arranged according to theassistance given by the data analysts Themarketing and advertisement of the products alsoneeds statistics Now you would be thinking how

amp its regular maintenance is all handled bystatistical applications In order to calculate theaverage mean median loss profit and all theother commerce related terms in businessesdealing with large amount of data is all handledby statisticians Statistics also helps inmaintaining employee performancemanagement A manager collects data aboutemployee productivity such as the number oftasks completed or the number of unitsproduced He or she must analyse data to findways in which an employee should improve toachieve maximum productivity Manycompanies also collect data about employeeengagement and happiness on the job whichcan be tracked to not only keep workersmotivated but ensure they dont leave for otherpositions elsewhere This helps in increasingthe efficiency of the employees and also createsa healthy working environment I have listed lotof points to prove the importance of statistics inbusinesses and hope that you will now agree towhat I mentioned in the beginning of the article

Whenever a method of marketing is thought thepercentage of people to get influenced the agegroup to target the kind of offers to be laid downare all done through statistics You might haveheard that now data is the new oil that means lifeis all surrounded with data and for the data andthe demand for its upkeep and analysis the dataanalysts are required and in big organizationswho actually target all age groups and sell allkinds of products on a large scale have a largedatabase not only of the customers but also oftheir n number of employees So an organizationis incomplete without data and where there isdata there is statistics In fact I would say thatan organization isnrsquot an organization if they donot have data and its proper upkeep in such acase the company will surely drain out so thisactually proves how important statistics hasbecome in the business point of view Thebanking sector canrsquot function without statisticsand this banking business forms the backbone ofthe country since all the customers of the bankhave loads of data for a particular bank account

Statistics help in

Measuring the stability of drugs-II) Production of drugs according to demandsIII) Effectiveness of drugsIV) Quality control of drugs V) Marketing of drugs VI) Testing the side effects of the drug with thehelp of data VII) Going through the procedure of approvaland public distribution of drugs

Statistics in developing a drug

A lot of statistics tools are used duringproduction clinical trials and marketing andpublic distribution of drugs-1 Average (mean median and mode) Usedduring experiments like stability testingcombination of chemicals and checking acidity orbasicity of solutions to calculate mean averageresults2 Standard deviation and variance It is ameasure of testing precision Can be used toevaluate precision at various points in a processor to evaluate the precision between two differentmethods of the experiment3 Q test for rejecting data It is used to checkoutliers in data ie to check unusual deviation ina data set to see if it can be statistically rejected

4 Confidence limits It helps in finding theprobability of the true value being within acalculable range It makes use of multiplyingstandard deviation with studentrsquos t-factor thatdetermines the confidence interval of theobservation at the stated confidence level5 t F Chi-square and other tests Helps incomparing the results of two data sets For egside effects of different medication in the samepopulation6 Correlation Helps to detect the relationbetween two attributes of a data for eg howthe effect of a medicine increases or decreasesdue to the change in dosage how increase ordecrease in temperature affects the stability ofcertain medication

Clinical Trials

Clinical trials are research studies that evaluatenew ways to improve treatments and quality oflife for people with disease and in presentscenario global pandemic COVID-19 Resultsfrom Clinical trials help develop

1 New drugsvaccines 2 New diagnostic tools 3 New clinical procedures

Participants volunteer for clinical trials

(28)

In this method of stratified random sampling isused to divide the volunteers into different stratabased on shared attributes or characteristicssuch as gender medical conditions and otherspecifics These stratarsquos are used in differentphases of clinical trials

Clinical trials have 4 phases

Before trial begins volunteers need tounderstand the potential benefits and potentialrisks before participating in clinical trials thatrsquoswhy pre-clinical phase is conducted to test thenew treatment on animals and healthyvolunteers This part comes under descriptivestatistics where we are using the observed(benefits and risks) for further research Phase 1- In this new treatment is tested for thefirst time to know how treatment affects thebody to determine a safe dose range forvaccine and their side effects It involvesrelatively 20-80 volunteers Stats approach-Association analysis is performed to capture thecorrelations between drug therapeuticindications and side-effects In order to achievethis goal we adopted Fishers exact test whichis a widely used approach for measuring thesignificance of the association between twonominal variables For example to test thesignificance of the association between drugtherapeutic indications A and drug side effect B

Phase 2- The study involves how well a newtreatment or combination of treatment goes wellwith certain types of patients It involves up to300 patient volunteers For example out oftotal cancer patients half of the patients areselected randomly and are given cancertreatment along with new vaccine and other halfare given cancer treatment along with standardtreatment of corona virus Now side effects inboth the cases are noted Aim is to determinewhich combination of treatment will have lessside effects Chi- square test is used tocompare the side effects in both the cases Phase 3- In this phase effectiveness of addinga new treatment to the standard treatment isstudied 100-1000 volunteers participate in thisphase Stats approach- Participants arerandomly split into two groups 1st group(treatment group) receives the standardtreatment + new vaccine and 2nd group (controlgroup) receives standard treatment + placebo(a treatment that looks identical to the newtreatment but contains no active ingredient) Inthis phase mean time taken to develop antibodies in both the groups are compared usingZ-test (Test of significance for difference inmeans)

Phase 4- In this phase no volunteers areinvolved researchersrsquo monitor drug safety andeffectiveness It involves optimal usage

What comes to your mind when you first hear theword Statisticsrsquo Graphs numbers or lines butwhat if I say that statistics comes with enumerablecareer opportunities The options are endless andthe jobs are just a little But what is the barrier thatholds us from thinking of Statistics as a separatesubject and just an extension of MathematicsMost of us still donrsquot know what statistics is allabout If we tell someone that we are a student ofStatistics they might just think itrsquos not a careeroption Even Google offers with a line explanationof Statistics ldquonumbers that have been collectedin order to provide information aboutsomethingrdquo Statistics is defined as theaggregate of facts affected to a market extent bymultiplicity of causes numerically expressed orestimated according to a reasonable standard ofaccuracy collected in a systematic manner forpredetermined purpose and placed in relation toeach other It is the art of learning from data It isconcerned with learning from data and theiranalysis As a plural it means numerical dataarising in any sphere of human experience thatis mostly unknown sources working togetherwhereas singularly it refers to the collection andinterpretation of numerical data The branchlsquoStatisticsrsquo is broadly divided into two formsDescriptive and Inferential Statistics DescriptiveStatistics involves collection analysation andcharacterization of data It includes graphicalmethods and numeric measures InferentialStatistic involves estimation and conclusion ofdata that has been classified under descriptivestatistics

Codes canrsquot lie but comments can mightseems to be simple yet very meaningful

We all live in the digital era of hightechnologies smart devices and mobilesolutions Data is an essential aspect of anybusiness Itrsquos crucial to gather process andanalyse the data flow and to do that as quicklyand accurately as possible Nowadays the datavolume can be large which makes informationhandling time-consuming and expensive Dueto this precise reason the data science industryis growing at a rapid pace creating newpossibilities as well as opportunities and pythonis one of the solutions to understand andanalyse such big data sets It is a cross-functional language that has lots of advantagesto offer This object-oriented programminglanguage is commonly used to streamline largecomplex data sets Not only this it has a highreadability that helps data analysts to save timeby typing fewer lines of code for accomplishingthe tasks Therefore itrsquos not surprising at allthat it is claimed to be the preferredprogramming language for data science

Let me tell you why Python is a number oneoption for data analysis-

By Tanisha Gupta ( 3rd Year )

gtgt Easy to LearnBeing involved in development for web servicesmobile apps as well as coding Yes it is one ofthe most famous language characteristics Morethan that a low and thus fast learning curve isthe next pre-eminence of Python whencomparing it with older languages on offer

gtgt Well-SupportedHaving the experience of using some tools forfree you probably know that it is a challenge toget decent support but thatrsquos not the case withPython Despite the high simplicity there can besituations when you still need help with PythonBeing in widespread use like in industries oracademic areas Python has a broad array ofhelpful libraries with tons of helpful and supportmaterials The great benefit is that all thelibraries are available at no cost

gtgt ScalabilityThis Pythonrsquos feature is closely connected withthe previous option Comparing with otherlanguages like R Java python is much fasterand more scalable Therefore it is good invarious fields that can solve a wide range ofproblems Thatrsquos why many companies havemigrated to Python

(34)

gtgt Huge Libraries CollectionAs I have already mentioned Python is one ofthe most supported languages nowadays Ithas a long list of totally free libraries availablefor all the users Thatrsquos a key factor that givesa strong push for Python If yoursquore involved inthe field more likely you are acquainted withsuch names as Pandas SciPy Stats ModelsMatplotlib etc libraries that are intensivelyutilized in the data science community Hereyou can easily find a solution needed forhassle-free work without additional expenses

gtgt Graphics and Visualization ToolsItrsquos a well-known fact that visual information ismuch easier to understand operate andremember So here is some good news foryou There is a pack of diverse visualizationoptions available that makes python a must-have tool not only for data analysis but for alldata science You can make the data moreaccessible and easier to use by means ofcreating various charts and graphics as wellas interactive plots Always remember that thesuccess of your business directly depends onthe ability to extract knowledge and insightsfrom data to make effective strategicdecisions stay competitive and makeprogress and Python is the internationallyclaimed programming language to help us inhandling our data in a better manner for avariety of causes

ldquoCollege life is known as one of the most memorable years of astudentrsquos life exposing them to new experiences like meeting new

people learning new things exploring places etcrdquo

A registered clinical psychologist in Honk Kongnamed Zanonia Chiu said - ldquoGoing to school hadbeen a struggle for some children (withdepression) prior to the pandemic but at leastthey had school routines to stick with Now thatschools are closed some lock themselves upinside their rooms for weeks refusing to takeshowers eat or leave their beds For somechildren with depression there will beconsiderable difficulties adjusting back to normallife when college resumesrdquo and according to anonline survey conducted with the study periodfrom April 2020 to May 2020 - Total 531372 and 243 had symptoms of depressionanxiety and stress respectively with varyingseverities (N=727)The conclusion of the surveyindicated that COVID-19 is building psychologicaldistress among vulnerable college students asthey are forced to stay home along withworsening financial situations lifestyle changesfamily situations and time spent on variousactivities

Sounds so interesting and happening right Itis true indeed but along with stressful timeaside Along with the perks of enjoyingfreedom more than ever there comesacademic pressure tasks of separation fromfamilies career building futureresponsibilities etc Boarding on with thecollege life is a stressful time for manystudents thereby affecting their mental healthMental health problems are very commonamong college students and have been anincreasing concern However the COVID-19pandemic situation has brought this vulnerablepopulation into renewed focus Following thepandemic schools colleges offices andalmost every place that involved humaninteraction was shut It is important to note thatcollegeschool or even a normal routine areimportant coping mechanisms for youngpeople with mental health issues and wheneverything is shut down they lose an anchor inlife and their symptoms could relapse

Mental health among students is a big concernhowever ldquoUNTREATEDrdquo mental illnesses are amuch bigger and exponentially growingconcern Reaching out is an important step formental health issues to be addressed andtreated but reach out to who This is the pointwhere our institution should take over Collegesplay a big role in this stage Colleges doaddress this issue through means of orientationsessions and workshops but there is still a needto address mental health more directly Themethods to address mental health issuesshould be accessible feasible and affordablefor the students For example at NorthwesternUniversity student feedback led orientationenabled organizers to shift their focus fromexpert speakers to student testimonials Meansto address the issue vary from traditionalpresentations and panel discussions to roleplays small group discussions etc Herestudents learn how to recognize mental illnesssymptoms where to find resources andsupport and how to talk to friends who mightbe struggling

The findings of this study highlighted theurgent need to develop interventions andpreventive strategies to address the mentalhealth of college students Another InterviewSurvey study conducted by the Journal ofMedical Internet Research highlighted that of195 students 138 (71) indicated increasedstress and anxiety due to the COVID-19outbreak Multiple stressors were identified thatcontributed to the increased levels of stressanxiety and depressive thoughts amongstudents These included fear and worry abouttheir own health and of their loved ones(177195 91 reported negative impacts ofthe pandemic) difficulty in concentrating(173195 89) disruptions to sleepingpatterns (168195 86) decreased socialinteractions due to physical distancing(167195 86) and increased concerns onacademic performance (159195 82) Tocope with stress and anxiety participants havesought support from others and helpedthemselves by adopting either negative orpositive coping mechanisms It is important toknow that creating awareness about any issueis never enough action is what is neededTaking leave from workschool because of a fluor a fracture is acceptable and might even helpin the process of cure and healing howevertaking time off because of stress from a mentalillness such as anxiety or depressionunfortunately is not

lsquoOnline classrsquo is a term which most of us werenrsquotfamiliar with Before this pandemic we neverthought of getting education at home Covid hasaffected all of our lives In past pursuingeducation meant going to the schoolcollege Butnow the whole scenario has changed Childrenare studying and attending classes from homeJust like there are two sides of a coin onlineclasses also have some advantages anddisadvantages

Starting from the advantages it saves time forboth students and teachers as they donrsquot haveto travel All they have to do is to join throughtheir mobiles or laptops Secondly studentsdonrsquot have to necessarily buy books from theshops like they had to do in offline classesbecause they are given pdfs from which they canstudy Therefore it saves money Third it can beattended from anywhere in the world Unlike inthe offline classes where we had to gather at aparticular place Fourth computer basedpractical can be easily understood as studentscan share their screen with teachers Also it iseasy for teachers to explain a topic with the helpof pictures or animations which can be easilyfound on the internet

Last but not the least Parents can keep an eyeon their children whether they are studyingproperly or not

Apart from advantages it has somedisadvantages too First sitting beside thecomputer or mobile for hours affects the eyesightof both students and teachers Doctors arereporting many cases of eyestrain amongchildren since the online classes have startedSecondly students are becoming lazy as theydonrsquot have to go out of their home Like theproverb lsquoAll work and no play makes Jack a dullboyrsquo is really happening Third students canbunk in the online classes easily As they haveno fear of punishment they learned to disobeyand disrespect teachers Fourth students havebeen given lots of assignments as a result ofwhich most students are copying othersassignments and are not learning anything newFifth it is very difficult to communicate asteachers cannot give attention to each studentLastly it can be concluded that no matter howthe classes are being held a student must bededicated and sincere towards their studiesAfter all onersquos future depends on what they do intheir present

An actuary is a business executive professionally trained in the mathematical sciences Actuariesspecialize in the evaluation of financial riskmdashmost often in the context of life health and casualtyinsurance where they design analyse and refine varied programs to meet the insurance needs ofsociety A growing number of actuaries work in the areas of assetliability management and risk managementSome of these actuaries are employed by investment and consulting firms others are employed byinsurance companies

Actuaries have been called financial architects and social mathematicians because their combinedanalytical and business skills help solve a growing variety of financial and social problems Theactuarial profession is a demanding yet rewarding career choice

In a world bombarded with numerical information informed decisions rely on the ability to separatefact from fiction by applying valid statistical analyses and visualizations Statisticians can providecrucial guidance in determining what information is reliable and which predictions may be trustedThey often help search for clues to the solution of a scientific mystery and sometimes keepinvestigators from being misled by false impressions

Thousands of statisticians work in medicine law agriculture public policy marketing manufacturingengineering and other fields in the social and natural sciences The diversity of applications is anexciting aspect of the field and is one more reason why the demand for well-trained statisticianscontinues to be strong

Contributed by Dr Meenu Goel

The curtain lifts on Bryant Elementary Schools Spring Recorder Recital Ninety third-graders fumble with their instruments take a breath

and blow Their parents braced breathe too

as Hot Crossed Buns emerges a little scattershot -- the Normal Distribution brought to life

By Go Tell Aunt Rhodie the audience

is moved by their sheer pretty-goodness though one kid knocks her music to the floor

and another squeaks to demonstrate

the tail two standard deviations below the mean The curve implies

that somewhere on stage another kid

just played a note so sweet he might shatter Mrs Wedermeyers glasses And if

there are a mother and father who think

that child is theirs may they be forgiven even if the child shining in their eyes

is moving his fingers slightly out of rhythm

even if hes never led the bell curve in his life In consecutive measures of almost unison

its easy to believe these children are musicians

Their parents do so stirred by Ode to Joy they rise to their feet with the final phrase

clapping from the darkened auditorium

at once as one heroically like the parents theyve meant to be

EK NAYA SAFAR

Mubarak ho apko zindgi ka naya safar

Naya hai sheher nai hai dagar

Chut gaye kuch rishte purane

But donrsquot worry yaar mil jayenge naye diwane

Kuch tum jaise khuch tum se alag

So just smile and start a new life

Dosti yaari ko zara side mai rakh ke

Edhar gaur famiye janab

Course toh tumne acha chuna hai

Kuch socha hai ya ese hi liya hai

College mai admission jab hota hai

Toh andar khushi ke fuvare futne lagte hai

Lekin syllabus o dekh kar yeh bhi dagmagane lagte hai

Mana CP paas hai vahi maat ghumte rehna

Varna paper mai cafeacute ki menu sheet hi likhte rehna

Donrsquot take a chill pill coz yaha ki teachers hai thori strict

Just because they want you to be the best

Ab kya kare college ka har din mamuli nahi hota

Aur 9 se 4 sirf parai nahi hoti

Gumo firo esh karo but parna na bhulo

Mana es saal kuch zyada hi speed breakers hai

But the best part is hum sab bhi toh sath hai

PONDERINGAll of humanity is but a set of numbers You and I

are nothing more than a statisticJust think about any decision you had to take

recently No matter your choice you might findyourself ending up only as an infinitesimal

decimal in the final percentage of a statisticianrsquosdiscourse Let me give you an example pertinent

to the world we live in today Say yoursquore arepublican and have to decide whether to wear a

mask or not Naturally your political instinctmight warn you against it However you might

still be inclined to wear one because yoursquoregenuinely scared about what the ldquoliberalsrdquo have

to say about the SARS-COV-2 Now now letrsquos notgo off-topic here I know you might be wondering

what yoursquod do if you were in a Republicanrsquos shoesBut thatrsquos not the point

In the end it seldom matters whether you are arepublican or a liberal especially in situations

like these What matters in the end is if you didgo out without wearing that infuriating

smothering mask And if you contracted thewretched virus because of it If yes hard luck

Yoursquore nothing more than one of the 841 millionpeople who have it Thatrsquos all that people aroundthe world will see Not your gender not your ageand certainly not your political belief Of course

there will be studies about the correlation ofthese factors with the incidence rate of the

infections but thatrsquos another story altogether andnot one possibly as broad as the one we talk

aboutMoreover the correlation must not be

confused with causation Now perhaps thatrsquosa story for another day But think about it thisway whether you go to college or drop out of

high school whether you choose to live ordecide to die no matter the decision no

matter your inclination or choice whetheryou like it or not you will be nothing more

than a statisticIt might sound a bit gloomy to be honestWhen I first thought about it I felt almostinsignificant Like a tiny speck of dust in a

galaxy of stars Alas isnrsquot that all that we arethough

A pale blue dot in an ocean of stars Ourplanet one among millions or perhaps

billions of others All 78 billion of us fightingfor a place in the world knowing full well we

canrsquot all possibly have it It might makeanyone feel overwhelmed but therersquos

something about that that is so challenging itis almost inspiring We all know statistics andwe all know life But the true beauty of life lies

in the ability to defy statistics Only onequestion remains are you up for the

challenge

It wonrsquot be any exaggeration If itrsquos said that tools of statistician are used in almost all fields ofcalculation

Be it research finance sports marketing sales health care or population countingIt is a crucial process behind How we make discoveries in science

Making decisions or claiming predictions It plays a crucial play in all situationsStats is involved everywhere from collection to interpretation From explanation to

presentationStatistics helps avoiding a wide variety of analytical traps By making sure that study follow

apt methods in all aspectsChallenging your own assumptions Or drawing data-based conclusions

Statistics is always there Making things crisp and clear

When you focus on the goodthe good gets better

It takes the same energy to worry as it doesto be positive so use your energy to thinkpositive and positive things will happen

The one thing that doesnt abide by majority rule is a persons conscience

Make happiness a priority and be gentle with yourself in the process

College the best start to unfold lifes beauty

Goodbye to the mistakes weve made remember the laughs weve shared

Will never forget these years

People are capable at anytime in their lives of doing what they dream of

Nehal DixitStop measuring your degree of

productivity and replace it by degree ofpresence

May every sunrise bring you hopeMay every sunset bring you peace

If you dont believe in yourself thenno one is going to believe in you So

Believe in Yourself

Be who you are and say what you feelbecause those who mind donrsquot matter and

those who matter donrsquot mind

Success is liking yourself liking what you do and liking how you do it

Happiness is a by-product of an effort to make someone else happy

If you are not willing to risk the unusual you will have to settle for the ordinary

Always keep it clean simple and precise

Hustle until you no longer have to introduce yourself

Dream it Wish it Do it

There are no limits to what you can accomplish except the limits you place

on your own thinking

The greatness of humanity is not in being human but in being humane

You will be exactly as happy as you decide

One thing to learn from the sun is thatwhenever a cloud tries to hinder itslight it finds its own path to shine

Excellence is not achieved - it is aspired to and trekked towards The tougher the trek

the better the views

I think the day we figure out everythingabout our lives is the day we die

Finding your magic can be scary but owning it will be EUPHORIA

An approximate answer to the right problem is worth a good deal more than

an exact answer to an approximate problem

Our greatest weakness lies in giving up The most certain way to succeed is always to try just one more time

The aim is to live happily heal throughevery situation and learn everything new

with every step taken

Believe in progress not perfection

Croxton and Cowden defines statistics as the science of collection presentation analysis andinterpretation of numerical data Progressively the Statistics subject come to be more and more popular and its application hasbecome more extensive Now almost there is no field of human activity where statistics are not usedNowadays it is used by economists businessmen scientists administrators etc To be more preciseabout the importance of statistics in our life lets discuss some astonishing reasons that we haveoverheard on several occasions

1 Everyone lookout for weather forecasting Have you ever thought how do you acquire thatinformation There are some computer models constructed on the basis of statistical conceptsThese computer models relate past weather with the present weather and predict future weather

2 Statistics frequently used by the researchers They use their statistical skills to collect therelevant data Otherwise it results in a loss of money time and data

3 What do you understand by insurance Everyone has some kind of insurance whether it ismedical home or any other insurance Several businesses use statistical models based on anindividual application to calculate the risk of giving insurance Life tables are indispensable for thesolution of all questions relating to the duration of human life 4 Statistic plays significant role in financial market Statistics are the key of how traders andbusinessmen invest and make money

5 Statistics play a big role in the medical field For testing the efficacy of a manufacturing druginjection or medicine for controlling curing specific ailments most of the applications of medicalfields lies in using the tests of significance (more precisely studentrsquos t-test) The testing of theeffectiveness of a medicine by the manufacturing concern is a must since only after theeffectiveness of the medicine is proven by the sound statistical techniques that it will venture tomanufacture it on a large scale and bring it out in the market By statistical techniques (t and Fsignificance tests) comparative study of different medicines can also be made

(18)

6 In industry Statistical techniques are used in quality testing Companies manufacture manyproducts on a daily basis and every company make sure that they sell the best quality items Butcompanies cannot test all the products so they use sampling techniques which are a very importantaspect of statistical theory 7 We make variety of predictions in daily life For examples we keep the alarm for the morningwhen we donrsquot know that we will be alive in the morning or not Here we use statistics basics to makepredictions

8 Using statistics concepts doctors predict disease Suppose a survey shows that 75-80people have cancer and not able to find the reason Where the statistics is involved there you canhave a better idea on how the cancer may affect your body

9 News reporter makes a prediction of winner for elections based on political campaigns Herestatistics play a very important role to find out who will form the government 10 Statistics data allow us to collect the information around the world The internet is a devisewhich help us to collect the information The fundamental behind the internet is based on statisticsand mathematics concepts 11 Not only in peace times but in war times also statistics can be used very effectively It ispractically not possible to face a war without the factual data concerning the military strength of theenemy in terms of manpower military tanks war aeroplanes missiles ammunition etc

BIOSTATISTICS is the application of statisticalmethods in studies in biology andencompasses the design of experiments thecollection of data from them and the analysisand interpretation of data The data comes froma wide range of sources including genomicstudies experiments with cells and organismsand clinical trials Biostatistics is the applicationof statistical principles to questions andproblems in medicine public health or biologyOne can imagine that it might be of interest tocharacterize a given population with respect tothe proportion who has asthma and it wouldalso be important to estimate the magnitude ofthese problems over time or perhaps in differentlocations Statistics is a science of compilingclassifying and tabulating numerical data andexpressing the results in a mathematical andgraphical form whereas biostatistics is thebranch of statistics concerned with themathematical facts and data related to biologicalevents

Francis Galton created the statistical conceptcorrelation Sir Galton for the first time usedstatistical tools to study differences amonghuman population He also invented the use ofquestionnaires surveys for collecting data onhuman communities Biostatistics are the eventand application of statistical method to a goodrange of topic in biology It encompasses theplanning of biological experiments the gatheringand analysis of knowledge from thoseexperiments and therefore the interpretation ofthe results Biostatistics is sometimesdistinguished from the field of biometry basedupon whether applications are in the healthsciences (bio statistics) or in broader biology(biometry example agriculture ecology wildlifebiology) More and more things are nowmeasured quantitatively in medicine and publichealth There is a great deal of inherent variationin most biological processes Public health andmedicine are becoming increasingly quantitative

(20)

It is used to test whether the differencebetween two populations is real or by chanceoccurrence to study the correlation betweenattributes in the same population and toevaluate the achievements of public healthprograms Biostatistics has applications in allthe branches of life sciences such as formapping chromosomes for studying thebehavior of genes in a population and forconduction of drug treatment trails etcBiostatistics deals with data arising frombiomedical research It remains a very activeresearch area with complicated time-to-eventdata and missing data emerging in applicationareas including medicine geneticsneuroscience and engineering Recentadvances in biomedical research have creatednew challenges and opportunities forstatisticians and data scientists For examplebig data analysis precision medicine artificialintelligence causal inference and other newresearch fields have inspired data scientists todevelop modern statistical methods andinnovative inference procedures

As technology progresses the physicianencounters more and more quantitative ratherthan descriptive information In one sensestatistics is the language of assembling andhandling quantitative material Even if onersquosconcern is only with the results of other peoplersquosmanipulation and assemblage of data it isimportant to achieve some understanding of thislanguage in order to interpret their resultsproperly Statistics pervades the medicalliterature As a consequence of the increasinglyquantitative nature of public health and medicineand its reliance on statistical methodology themedical literature is replete with reports in whichstatistical techniques are used extensivelyBiostatistics is used to determine how diseasesdevelop progress and spread

For example biostatisticians use statistics topredict the behavior of an illness like flu It is usedto help predict the mortality rate the symptomsand even the time of year people might get it

Over 50 years ago there was a subject whichwas unnoticed and mainly focused on the studyand analysis of data Statisticians urgedacademic statistics to transcend its boundariesbeyond the realm of theoretical statistics Morestress was laid on data presentation Datascience is a discipline which is guided bycomputing informatics operation researchmathematics and statistics

Statistics is treated as the most important tool insorting and analysing data It is beneficial ingiving a deeper vision of the data Statisticswidely depends upon experiments and surveysWith the help of descriptive statisticscalculations like mean median etc can bedone on the data On the other hand inferentialstatistics helps in drawing inferences andconclusions from the population Both domainsof statistics play a very important role in DataScience In order to get a structured data andmaking predictions statistical methods and toolsare very essential They are able to carry outmany analytical tasks

Statistical Analysis is the study of surveying agiven set of data and observing patterns andtrends It is used in research fields to createstatistical models for performing certainexperiments on a population

The focus is to gather information from thesmallest quantity of data The experimentsinvolve accurate calculations and therefore giverespective results Statistics forms the base ofData Science It requires optimization of hugedatabases which is achieved with the help ofdifferent statistical tools In todayrsquos data drivenworld Data Science is turning out to be one ofthe most demanded professions Almost all firmsand companies are in search of data scientistsas the data keeps on piling up and the need ofinterpreting analysing and cleaning it is risingThe ultimate aim of Statistics and Data Scienceis to extricate cognizance from large amounts ofdata

Whenever the word lsquobusinessrsquo is heard lsquosalesrsquo isthe word which comes to our mind next and whatexactly assists sales is STATISTICS Donrsquotbelieve me but I am sure after reading the articleyou would all agree to my point too So what doesa businessman do He manufactures and sellsthe goods produced to the public but both ofthese basic functions of the businessman cannotbe transcended without the help of statistics toolssuch as survey statistics driven softwares tocollect and analyse the demand of the customerand to what extent ie the quantity in which it isrequired in order to maximize their total revenueThe graphs and the tables formed ie the statshelp them to know the exact condition of themarket and its inclination so that they could comeout with offers and discounts in order to attractpublic towards their product maximizing theirsales The businessmen who is believed to bevery quick and accurate in decision making is allassisted by statistics at every point fromanalysing their sales profit margins wages of theemployees the improvements required in theproduct the billing counters are all carriedforward with the help of statistical tools Thefinancial resources required for investing in thebusiness are also arranged according to theassistance given by the data analysts Themarketing and advertisement of the products alsoneeds statistics Now you would be thinking how

amp its regular maintenance is all handled bystatistical applications In order to calculate theaverage mean median loss profit and all theother commerce related terms in businessesdealing with large amount of data is all handledby statisticians Statistics also helps inmaintaining employee performancemanagement A manager collects data aboutemployee productivity such as the number oftasks completed or the number of unitsproduced He or she must analyse data to findways in which an employee should improve toachieve maximum productivity Manycompanies also collect data about employeeengagement and happiness on the job whichcan be tracked to not only keep workersmotivated but ensure they dont leave for otherpositions elsewhere This helps in increasingthe efficiency of the employees and also createsa healthy working environment I have listed lotof points to prove the importance of statistics inbusinesses and hope that you will now agree towhat I mentioned in the beginning of the article

Whenever a method of marketing is thought thepercentage of people to get influenced the agegroup to target the kind of offers to be laid downare all done through statistics You might haveheard that now data is the new oil that means lifeis all surrounded with data and for the data andthe demand for its upkeep and analysis the dataanalysts are required and in big organizationswho actually target all age groups and sell allkinds of products on a large scale have a largedatabase not only of the customers but also oftheir n number of employees So an organizationis incomplete without data and where there isdata there is statistics In fact I would say thatan organization isnrsquot an organization if they donot have data and its proper upkeep in such acase the company will surely drain out so thisactually proves how important statistics hasbecome in the business point of view Thebanking sector canrsquot function without statisticsand this banking business forms the backbone ofthe country since all the customers of the bankhave loads of data for a particular bank account

Statistics is the science of learning from dataStatistical knowledge helps an individual to usethe proper methods for collecting data employthe correct analysis and present the resultseffectively Statistical analysis is thus used inalmost all fields to make sense out of the vastamount of data that is available Thus statisticalmethodologies are not only useful in drawingimportant results but also play a significant role inproducing new findings and understanding thework of others One such field which has wideuse of the statistical techniques andmethodologies is the Insurance Sector Insuranceis basically the business of risk as it involves thetransfer of risk from one party to another

The main incoming and outgoing source ofincome in the business of insurance is throughpremiums and claims respectively Manystatistical models are used to model claimsand losses Parameters for these distributionsare estimated using Method of momentMaximum likelihood estimates etc and thenGoodness of fit testis applied to check howwell our distribution fits to the data Timeseries model plays an important role inforecasting future values Statistics is used toanswer the most important questions for theinsurance industry What percentage ofpolicies are expected to payout How muchmoney the company must expect to payout inclaims Different methods of data collectioneither in primary or secondary form are usedto determine the required reserves premiumand future predictions Apart from this manystatistical methods for eg Linear modelmethod which uses regression as the maintool in determining the factors affectingpremiums Loss distribution method in whichhistogram and bar graphs are made tocompare different categories and complexstatistical tools such as Ruin Theory and Run-off triangles are used to develop newproducts absorb and evaluate risk and ruinwhen balancing claims reserves andpremiums Thus statistics plays anirreplaceable role in the life cycle ofinsurance business for both life and non-life insurance

Statistics help in

Measuring the stability of drugs-II) Production of drugs according to demandsIII) Effectiveness of drugsIV) Quality control of drugs V) Marketing of drugs VI) Testing the side effects of the drug with thehelp of data VII) Going through the procedure of approvaland public distribution of drugs

Statistics in developing a drug

A lot of statistics tools are used duringproduction clinical trials and marketing andpublic distribution of drugs-1 Average (mean median and mode) Usedduring experiments like stability testingcombination of chemicals and checking acidity orbasicity of solutions to calculate mean averageresults2 Standard deviation and variance It is ameasure of testing precision Can be used toevaluate precision at various points in a processor to evaluate the precision between two differentmethods of the experiment3 Q test for rejecting data It is used to checkoutliers in data ie to check unusual deviation ina data set to see if it can be statistically rejected

4 Confidence limits It helps in finding theprobability of the true value being within acalculable range It makes use of multiplyingstandard deviation with studentrsquos t-factor thatdetermines the confidence interval of theobservation at the stated confidence level5 t F Chi-square and other tests Helps incomparing the results of two data sets For egside effects of different medication in the samepopulation6 Correlation Helps to detect the relationbetween two attributes of a data for eg howthe effect of a medicine increases or decreasesdue to the change in dosage how increase ordecrease in temperature affects the stability ofcertain medication

Clinical Trials

Clinical trials are research studies that evaluatenew ways to improve treatments and quality oflife for people with disease and in presentscenario global pandemic COVID-19 Resultsfrom Clinical trials help develop

1 New drugsvaccines 2 New diagnostic tools 3 New clinical procedures

Participants volunteer for clinical trials

(28)

In this method of stratified random sampling isused to divide the volunteers into different stratabased on shared attributes or characteristicssuch as gender medical conditions and otherspecifics These stratarsquos are used in differentphases of clinical trials

Clinical trials have 4 phases

Before trial begins volunteers need tounderstand the potential benefits and potentialrisks before participating in clinical trials thatrsquoswhy pre-clinical phase is conducted to test thenew treatment on animals and healthyvolunteers This part comes under descriptivestatistics where we are using the observed(benefits and risks) for further research Phase 1- In this new treatment is tested for thefirst time to know how treatment affects thebody to determine a safe dose range forvaccine and their side effects It involvesrelatively 20-80 volunteers Stats approach-Association analysis is performed to capture thecorrelations between drug therapeuticindications and side-effects In order to achievethis goal we adopted Fishers exact test whichis a widely used approach for measuring thesignificance of the association between twonominal variables For example to test thesignificance of the association between drugtherapeutic indications A and drug side effect B

Phase 2- The study involves how well a newtreatment or combination of treatment goes wellwith certain types of patients It involves up to300 patient volunteers For example out oftotal cancer patients half of the patients areselected randomly and are given cancertreatment along with new vaccine and other halfare given cancer treatment along with standardtreatment of corona virus Now side effects inboth the cases are noted Aim is to determinewhich combination of treatment will have lessside effects Chi- square test is used tocompare the side effects in both the cases Phase 3- In this phase effectiveness of addinga new treatment to the standard treatment isstudied 100-1000 volunteers participate in thisphase Stats approach- Participants arerandomly split into two groups 1st group(treatment group) receives the standardtreatment + new vaccine and 2nd group (controlgroup) receives standard treatment + placebo(a treatment that looks identical to the newtreatment but contains no active ingredient) Inthis phase mean time taken to develop antibodies in both the groups are compared usingZ-test (Test of significance for difference inmeans)

Phase 4- In this phase no volunteers areinvolved researchersrsquo monitor drug safety andeffectiveness It involves optimal usage

Let me tell you why Python is a number oneoption for data analysis-

By Tanisha Gupta ( 3rd Year )

gtgt Easy to LearnBeing involved in development for web servicesmobile apps as well as coding Yes it is one ofthe most famous language characteristics Morethan that a low and thus fast learning curve isthe next pre-eminence of Python whencomparing it with older languages on offer

gtgt Well-SupportedHaving the experience of using some tools forfree you probably know that it is a challenge toget decent support but thatrsquos not the case withPython Despite the high simplicity there can besituations when you still need help with PythonBeing in widespread use like in industries oracademic areas Python has a broad array ofhelpful libraries with tons of helpful and supportmaterials The great benefit is that all thelibraries are available at no cost

gtgt ScalabilityThis Pythonrsquos feature is closely connected withthe previous option Comparing with otherlanguages like R Java python is much fasterand more scalable Therefore it is good invarious fields that can solve a wide range ofproblems Thatrsquos why many companies havemigrated to Python

(34)

gtgt Huge Libraries CollectionAs I have already mentioned Python is one ofthe most supported languages nowadays Ithas a long list of totally free libraries availablefor all the users Thatrsquos a key factor that givesa strong push for Python If yoursquore involved inthe field more likely you are acquainted withsuch names as Pandas SciPy Stats ModelsMatplotlib etc libraries that are intensivelyutilized in the data science community Hereyou can easily find a solution needed forhassle-free work without additional expenses

gtgt Graphics and Visualization ToolsItrsquos a well-known fact that visual information ismuch easier to understand operate andremember So here is some good news foryou There is a pack of diverse visualizationoptions available that makes python a must-have tool not only for data analysis but for alldata science You can make the data moreaccessible and easier to use by means ofcreating various charts and graphics as wellas interactive plots Always remember that thesuccess of your business directly depends onthe ability to extract knowledge and insightsfrom data to make effective strategicdecisions stay competitive and makeprogress and Python is the internationallyclaimed programming language to help us inhandling our data in a better manner for avariety of causes

A registered clinical psychologist in Honk Kongnamed Zanonia Chiu said - ldquoGoing to school hadbeen a struggle for some children (withdepression) prior to the pandemic but at leastthey had school routines to stick with Now thatschools are closed some lock themselves upinside their rooms for weeks refusing to takeshowers eat or leave their beds For somechildren with depression there will beconsiderable difficulties adjusting back to normallife when college resumesrdquo and according to anonline survey conducted with the study periodfrom April 2020 to May 2020 - Total 531372 and 243 had symptoms of depressionanxiety and stress respectively with varyingseverities (N=727)The conclusion of the surveyindicated that COVID-19 is building psychologicaldistress among vulnerable college students asthey are forced to stay home along withworsening financial situations lifestyle changesfamily situations and time spent on variousactivities

Sounds so interesting and happening right Itis true indeed but along with stressful timeaside Along with the perks of enjoyingfreedom more than ever there comesacademic pressure tasks of separation fromfamilies career building futureresponsibilities etc Boarding on with thecollege life is a stressful time for manystudents thereby affecting their mental healthMental health problems are very commonamong college students and have been anincreasing concern However the COVID-19pandemic situation has brought this vulnerablepopulation into renewed focus Following thepandemic schools colleges offices andalmost every place that involved humaninteraction was shut It is important to note thatcollegeschool or even a normal routine areimportant coping mechanisms for youngpeople with mental health issues and wheneverything is shut down they lose an anchor inlife and their symptoms could relapse

Mental health among students is a big concernhowever ldquoUNTREATEDrdquo mental illnesses are amuch bigger and exponentially growingconcern Reaching out is an important step formental health issues to be addressed andtreated but reach out to who This is the pointwhere our institution should take over Collegesplay a big role in this stage Colleges doaddress this issue through means of orientationsessions and workshops but there is still a needto address mental health more directly Themethods to address mental health issuesshould be accessible feasible and affordablefor the students For example at NorthwesternUniversity student feedback led orientationenabled organizers to shift their focus fromexpert speakers to student testimonials Meansto address the issue vary from traditionalpresentations and panel discussions to roleplays small group discussions etc Herestudents learn how to recognize mental illnesssymptoms where to find resources andsupport and how to talk to friends who mightbe struggling

The findings of this study highlighted theurgent need to develop interventions andpreventive strategies to address the mentalhealth of college students Another InterviewSurvey study conducted by the Journal ofMedical Internet Research highlighted that of195 students 138 (71) indicated increasedstress and anxiety due to the COVID-19outbreak Multiple stressors were identified thatcontributed to the increased levels of stressanxiety and depressive thoughts amongstudents These included fear and worry abouttheir own health and of their loved ones(177195 91 reported negative impacts ofthe pandemic) difficulty in concentrating(173195 89) disruptions to sleepingpatterns (168195 86) decreased socialinteractions due to physical distancing(167195 86) and increased concerns onacademic performance (159195 82) Tocope with stress and anxiety participants havesought support from others and helpedthemselves by adopting either negative orpositive coping mechanisms It is important toknow that creating awareness about any issueis never enough action is what is neededTaking leave from workschool because of a fluor a fracture is acceptable and might even helpin the process of cure and healing howevertaking time off because of stress from a mentalillness such as anxiety or depressionunfortunately is not

lsquoOnline classrsquo is a term which most of us werenrsquotfamiliar with Before this pandemic we neverthought of getting education at home Covid hasaffected all of our lives In past pursuingeducation meant going to the schoolcollege Butnow the whole scenario has changed Childrenare studying and attending classes from homeJust like there are two sides of a coin onlineclasses also have some advantages anddisadvantages

Starting from the advantages it saves time forboth students and teachers as they donrsquot haveto travel All they have to do is to join throughtheir mobiles or laptops Secondly studentsdonrsquot have to necessarily buy books from theshops like they had to do in offline classesbecause they are given pdfs from which they canstudy Therefore it saves money Third it can beattended from anywhere in the world Unlike inthe offline classes where we had to gather at aparticular place Fourth computer basedpractical can be easily understood as studentscan share their screen with teachers Also it iseasy for teachers to explain a topic with the helpof pictures or animations which can be easilyfound on the internet

Last but not the least Parents can keep an eyeon their children whether they are studyingproperly or not

Apart from advantages it has somedisadvantages too First sitting beside thecomputer or mobile for hours affects the eyesightof both students and teachers Doctors arereporting many cases of eyestrain amongchildren since the online classes have startedSecondly students are becoming lazy as theydonrsquot have to go out of their home Like theproverb lsquoAll work and no play makes Jack a dullboyrsquo is really happening Third students canbunk in the online classes easily As they haveno fear of punishment they learned to disobeyand disrespect teachers Fourth students havebeen given lots of assignments as a result ofwhich most students are copying othersassignments and are not learning anything newFifth it is very difficult to communicate asteachers cannot give attention to each studentLastly it can be concluded that no matter howthe classes are being held a student must bededicated and sincere towards their studiesAfter all onersquos future depends on what they do intheir present

An actuary is a business executive professionally trained in the mathematical sciences Actuariesspecialize in the evaluation of financial riskmdashmost often in the context of life health and casualtyinsurance where they design analyse and refine varied programs to meet the insurance needs ofsociety A growing number of actuaries work in the areas of assetliability management and risk managementSome of these actuaries are employed by investment and consulting firms others are employed byinsurance companies

Actuaries have been called financial architects and social mathematicians because their combinedanalytical and business skills help solve a growing variety of financial and social problems Theactuarial profession is a demanding yet rewarding career choice

In a world bombarded with numerical information informed decisions rely on the ability to separatefact from fiction by applying valid statistical analyses and visualizations Statisticians can providecrucial guidance in determining what information is reliable and which predictions may be trustedThey often help search for clues to the solution of a scientific mystery and sometimes keepinvestigators from being misled by false impressions

Thousands of statisticians work in medicine law agriculture public policy marketing manufacturingengineering and other fields in the social and natural sciences The diversity of applications is anexciting aspect of the field and is one more reason why the demand for well-trained statisticianscontinues to be strong

Poetry

Contributed by Dr Komal Goel

(41)

Contributed by Dr Meenu Goel

The curtain lifts on Bryant Elementary Schools Spring Recorder Recital Ninety third-graders fumble with their instruments take a breath

and blow Their parents braced breathe too

as Hot Crossed Buns emerges a little scattershot -- the Normal Distribution brought to life

By Go Tell Aunt Rhodie the audience

is moved by their sheer pretty-goodness though one kid knocks her music to the floor

and another squeaks to demonstrate

the tail two standard deviations below the mean The curve implies

that somewhere on stage another kid

just played a note so sweet he might shatter Mrs Wedermeyers glasses And if

there are a mother and father who think

that child is theirs may they be forgiven even if the child shining in their eyes

is moving his fingers slightly out of rhythm

even if hes never led the bell curve in his life In consecutive measures of almost unison

its easy to believe these children are musicians

Their parents do so stirred by Ode to Joy they rise to their feet with the final phrase

clapping from the darkened auditorium

at once as one heroically like the parents theyve meant to be

EK NAYA SAFAR

Mubarak ho apko zindgi ka naya safar

Naya hai sheher nai hai dagar

Chut gaye kuch rishte purane

But donrsquot worry yaar mil jayenge naye diwane

Kuch tum jaise khuch tum se alag

So just smile and start a new life

Dosti yaari ko zara side mai rakh ke

Edhar gaur famiye janab

Course toh tumne acha chuna hai

Kuch socha hai ya ese hi liya hai

College mai admission jab hota hai

Toh andar khushi ke fuvare futne lagte hai

Lekin syllabus o dekh kar yeh bhi dagmagane lagte hai

Mana CP paas hai vahi maat ghumte rehna

Varna paper mai cafeacute ki menu sheet hi likhte rehna

Donrsquot take a chill pill coz yaha ki teachers hai thori strict

Just because they want you to be the best

Ab kya kare college ka har din mamuli nahi hota

Aur 9 se 4 sirf parai nahi hoti

Gumo firo esh karo but parna na bhulo

Mana es saal kuch zyada hi speed breakers hai

But the best part is hum sab bhi toh sath hai

PONDERINGAll of humanity is but a set of numbers You and I

are nothing more than a statisticJust think about any decision you had to take

recently No matter your choice you might findyourself ending up only as an infinitesimal

decimal in the final percentage of a statisticianrsquosdiscourse Let me give you an example pertinent

to the world we live in today Say yoursquore arepublican and have to decide whether to wear a

mask or not Naturally your political instinctmight warn you against it However you might

still be inclined to wear one because yoursquoregenuinely scared about what the ldquoliberalsrdquo have

to say about the SARS-COV-2 Now now letrsquos notgo off-topic here I know you might be wondering

what yoursquod do if you were in a Republicanrsquos shoesBut thatrsquos not the point

In the end it seldom matters whether you are arepublican or a liberal especially in situations

like these What matters in the end is if you didgo out without wearing that infuriating

smothering mask And if you contracted thewretched virus because of it If yes hard luck

Yoursquore nothing more than one of the 841 millionpeople who have it Thatrsquos all that people aroundthe world will see Not your gender not your ageand certainly not your political belief Of course

there will be studies about the correlation ofthese factors with the incidence rate of the

infections but thatrsquos another story altogether andnot one possibly as broad as the one we talk

aboutMoreover the correlation must not be

confused with causation Now perhaps thatrsquosa story for another day But think about it thisway whether you go to college or drop out of

high school whether you choose to live ordecide to die no matter the decision no

matter your inclination or choice whetheryou like it or not you will be nothing more

than a statisticIt might sound a bit gloomy to be honestWhen I first thought about it I felt almostinsignificant Like a tiny speck of dust in a

galaxy of stars Alas isnrsquot that all that we arethough

A pale blue dot in an ocean of stars Ourplanet one among millions or perhaps

billions of others All 78 billion of us fightingfor a place in the world knowing full well we

canrsquot all possibly have it It might makeanyone feel overwhelmed but therersquos

something about that that is so challenging itis almost inspiring We all know statistics andwe all know life But the true beauty of life lies

in the ability to defy statistics Only onequestion remains are you up for the

challenge

It wonrsquot be any exaggeration If itrsquos said that tools of statistician are used in almost all fields ofcalculation

Be it research finance sports marketing sales health care or population countingIt is a crucial process behind How we make discoveries in science

Making decisions or claiming predictions It plays a crucial play in all situationsStats is involved everywhere from collection to interpretation From explanation to

presentationStatistics helps avoiding a wide variety of analytical traps By making sure that study follow

apt methods in all aspectsChallenging your own assumptions Or drawing data-based conclusions

Statistics is always there Making things crisp and clear

It always seems impossible until it is done

If it makes you happyit doesnt have to make sense to others

When you cant find the sunshinebe the sunshine

Either you run the day or let the day run you

When you focus on the goodthe good gets better

It takes the same energy to worry as it doesto be positive so use your energy to thinkpositive and positive things will happen

The one thing that doesnt abide by majority rule is a persons conscience

Make happiness a priority and be gentle with yourself in the process

College the best start to unfold lifes beauty

Goodbye to the mistakes weve made remember the laughs weve shared

Will never forget these years

People are capable at anytime in their lives of doing what they dream of

Believe in Yourself

Be who you are and say what you feelbecause those who mind donrsquot matter and

those who matter donrsquot mind

Success is liking yourself liking what you do and liking how you do it

Happiness is a by-product of an effort to make someone else happy

If you are not willing to risk the unusual you will have to settle for the ordinary

Always keep it clean simple and precise

Hustle until you no longer have to introduce yourself

Dream it Wish it Do it

Croxton and Cowden defines statistics as the science of collection presentation analysis andinterpretation of numerical data Progressively the Statistics subject come to be more and more popular and its application hasbecome more extensive Now almost there is no field of human activity where statistics are not usedNowadays it is used by economists businessmen scientists administrators etc To be more preciseabout the importance of statistics in our life lets discuss some astonishing reasons that we haveoverheard on several occasions

1 Everyone lookout for weather forecasting Have you ever thought how do you acquire thatinformation There are some computer models constructed on the basis of statistical conceptsThese computer models relate past weather with the present weather and predict future weather

2 Statistics frequently used by the researchers They use their statistical skills to collect therelevant data Otherwise it results in a loss of money time and data

3 What do you understand by insurance Everyone has some kind of insurance whether it ismedical home or any other insurance Several businesses use statistical models based on anindividual application to calculate the risk of giving insurance Life tables are indispensable for thesolution of all questions relating to the duration of human life 4 Statistic plays significant role in financial market Statistics are the key of how traders andbusinessmen invest and make money

5 Statistics play a big role in the medical field For testing the efficacy of a manufacturing druginjection or medicine for controlling curing specific ailments most of the applications of medicalfields lies in using the tests of significance (more precisely studentrsquos t-test) The testing of theeffectiveness of a medicine by the manufacturing concern is a must since only after theeffectiveness of the medicine is proven by the sound statistical techniques that it will venture tomanufacture it on a large scale and bring it out in the market By statistical techniques (t and Fsignificance tests) comparative study of different medicines can also be made

(18)

6 In industry Statistical techniques are used in quality testing Companies manufacture manyproducts on a daily basis and every company make sure that they sell the best quality items Butcompanies cannot test all the products so they use sampling techniques which are a very importantaspect of statistical theory 7 We make variety of predictions in daily life For examples we keep the alarm for the morningwhen we donrsquot know that we will be alive in the morning or not Here we use statistics basics to makepredictions

8 Using statistics concepts doctors predict disease Suppose a survey shows that 75-80people have cancer and not able to find the reason Where the statistics is involved there you canhave a better idea on how the cancer may affect your body

9 News reporter makes a prediction of winner for elections based on political campaigns Herestatistics play a very important role to find out who will form the government 10 Statistics data allow us to collect the information around the world The internet is a devisewhich help us to collect the information The fundamental behind the internet is based on statisticsand mathematics concepts 11 Not only in peace times but in war times also statistics can be used very effectively It ispractically not possible to face a war without the factual data concerning the military strength of theenemy in terms of manpower military tanks war aeroplanes missiles ammunition etc

BIOSTATISTICS is the application of statisticalmethods in studies in biology andencompasses the design of experiments thecollection of data from them and the analysisand interpretation of data The data comes froma wide range of sources including genomicstudies experiments with cells and organismsand clinical trials Biostatistics is the applicationof statistical principles to questions andproblems in medicine public health or biologyOne can imagine that it might be of interest tocharacterize a given population with respect tothe proportion who has asthma and it wouldalso be important to estimate the magnitude ofthese problems over time or perhaps in differentlocations Statistics is a science of compilingclassifying and tabulating numerical data andexpressing the results in a mathematical andgraphical form whereas biostatistics is thebranch of statistics concerned with themathematical facts and data related to biologicalevents

Francis Galton created the statistical conceptcorrelation Sir Galton for the first time usedstatistical tools to study differences amonghuman population He also invented the use ofquestionnaires surveys for collecting data onhuman communities Biostatistics are the eventand application of statistical method to a goodrange of topic in biology It encompasses theplanning of biological experiments the gatheringand analysis of knowledge from thoseexperiments and therefore the interpretation ofthe results Biostatistics is sometimesdistinguished from the field of biometry basedupon whether applications are in the healthsciences (bio statistics) or in broader biology(biometry example agriculture ecology wildlifebiology) More and more things are nowmeasured quantitatively in medicine and publichealth There is a great deal of inherent variationin most biological processes Public health andmedicine are becoming increasingly quantitative

(20)

It is used to test whether the differencebetween two populations is real or by chanceoccurrence to study the correlation betweenattributes in the same population and toevaluate the achievements of public healthprograms Biostatistics has applications in allthe branches of life sciences such as formapping chromosomes for studying thebehavior of genes in a population and forconduction of drug treatment trails etcBiostatistics deals with data arising frombiomedical research It remains a very activeresearch area with complicated time-to-eventdata and missing data emerging in applicationareas including medicine geneticsneuroscience and engineering Recentadvances in biomedical research have creatednew challenges and opportunities forstatisticians and data scientists For examplebig data analysis precision medicine artificialintelligence causal inference and other newresearch fields have inspired data scientists todevelop modern statistical methods andinnovative inference procedures

As technology progresses the physicianencounters more and more quantitative ratherthan descriptive information In one sensestatistics is the language of assembling andhandling quantitative material Even if onersquosconcern is only with the results of other peoplersquosmanipulation and assemblage of data it isimportant to achieve some understanding of thislanguage in order to interpret their resultsproperly Statistics pervades the medicalliterature As a consequence of the increasinglyquantitative nature of public health and medicineand its reliance on statistical methodology themedical literature is replete with reports in whichstatistical techniques are used extensivelyBiostatistics is used to determine how diseasesdevelop progress and spread

For example biostatisticians use statistics topredict the behavior of an illness like flu It is usedto help predict the mortality rate the symptomsand even the time of year people might get it

(21)

Over 50 years ago there was a subject whichwas unnoticed and mainly focused on the studyand analysis of data Statisticians urgedacademic statistics to transcend its boundariesbeyond the realm of theoretical statistics Morestress was laid on data presentation Datascience is a discipline which is guided bycomputing informatics operation researchmathematics and statistics

Statistics is treated as the most important tool insorting and analysing data It is beneficial ingiving a deeper vision of the data Statisticswidely depends upon experiments and surveysWith the help of descriptive statisticscalculations like mean median etc can bedone on the data On the other hand inferentialstatistics helps in drawing inferences andconclusions from the population Both domainsof statistics play a very important role in DataScience In order to get a structured data andmaking predictions statistical methods and toolsare very essential They are able to carry outmany analytical tasks

Statistical Analysis is the study of surveying agiven set of data and observing patterns andtrends It is used in research fields to createstatistical models for performing certainexperiments on a population

The focus is to gather information from thesmallest quantity of data The experimentsinvolve accurate calculations and therefore giverespective results Statistics forms the base ofData Science It requires optimization of hugedatabases which is achieved with the help ofdifferent statistical tools In todayrsquos data drivenworld Data Science is turning out to be one ofthe most demanded professions Almost all firmsand companies are in search of data scientistsas the data keeps on piling up and the need ofinterpreting analysing and cleaning it is risingThe ultimate aim of Statistics and Data Scienceis to extricate cognizance from large amounts ofdata

Whenever the word lsquobusinessrsquo is heard lsquosalesrsquo isthe word which comes to our mind next and whatexactly assists sales is STATISTICS Donrsquotbelieve me but I am sure after reading the articleyou would all agree to my point too So what doesa businessman do He manufactures and sellsthe goods produced to the public but both ofthese basic functions of the businessman cannotbe transcended without the help of statistics toolssuch as survey statistics driven softwares tocollect and analyse the demand of the customerand to what extent ie the quantity in which it isrequired in order to maximize their total revenueThe graphs and the tables formed ie the statshelp them to know the exact condition of themarket and its inclination so that they could comeout with offers and discounts in order to attractpublic towards their product maximizing theirsales The businessmen who is believed to bevery quick and accurate in decision making is allassisted by statistics at every point fromanalysing their sales profit margins wages of theemployees the improvements required in theproduct the billing counters are all carriedforward with the help of statistical tools Thefinancial resources required for investing in thebusiness are also arranged according to theassistance given by the data analysts Themarketing and advertisement of the products alsoneeds statistics Now you would be thinking how

amp its regular maintenance is all handled bystatistical applications In order to calculate theaverage mean median loss profit and all theother commerce related terms in businessesdealing with large amount of data is all handledby statisticians Statistics also helps inmaintaining employee performancemanagement A manager collects data aboutemployee productivity such as the number oftasks completed or the number of unitsproduced He or she must analyse data to findways in which an employee should improve toachieve maximum productivity Manycompanies also collect data about employeeengagement and happiness on the job whichcan be tracked to not only keep workersmotivated but ensure they dont leave for otherpositions elsewhere This helps in increasingthe efficiency of the employees and also createsa healthy working environment I have listed lotof points to prove the importance of statistics inbusinesses and hope that you will now agree towhat I mentioned in the beginning of the article

Whenever a method of marketing is thought thepercentage of people to get influenced the agegroup to target the kind of offers to be laid downare all done through statistics You might haveheard that now data is the new oil that means lifeis all surrounded with data and for the data andthe demand for its upkeep and analysis the dataanalysts are required and in big organizationswho actually target all age groups and sell allkinds of products on a large scale have a largedatabase not only of the customers but also oftheir n number of employees So an organizationis incomplete without data and where there isdata there is statistics In fact I would say thatan organization isnrsquot an organization if they donot have data and its proper upkeep in such acase the company will surely drain out so thisactually proves how important statistics hasbecome in the business point of view Thebanking sector canrsquot function without statisticsand this banking business forms the backbone ofthe country since all the customers of the bankhave loads of data for a particular bank account

Statistics is the science of learning from dataStatistical knowledge helps an individual to usethe proper methods for collecting data employthe correct analysis and present the resultseffectively Statistical analysis is thus used inalmost all fields to make sense out of the vastamount of data that is available Thus statisticalmethodologies are not only useful in drawingimportant results but also play a significant role inproducing new findings and understanding thework of others One such field which has wideuse of the statistical techniques andmethodologies is the Insurance Sector Insuranceis basically the business of risk as it involves thetransfer of risk from one party to another

The main incoming and outgoing source ofincome in the business of insurance is throughpremiums and claims respectively Manystatistical models are used to model claimsand losses Parameters for these distributionsare estimated using Method of momentMaximum likelihood estimates etc and thenGoodness of fit testis applied to check howwell our distribution fits to the data Timeseries model plays an important role inforecasting future values Statistics is used toanswer the most important questions for theinsurance industry What percentage ofpolicies are expected to payout How muchmoney the company must expect to payout inclaims Different methods of data collectioneither in primary or secondary form are usedto determine the required reserves premiumand future predictions Apart from this manystatistical methods for eg Linear modelmethod which uses regression as the maintool in determining the factors affectingpremiums Loss distribution method in whichhistogram and bar graphs are made tocompare different categories and complexstatistical tools such as Ruin Theory and Run-off triangles are used to develop newproducts absorb and evaluate risk and ruinwhen balancing claims reserves andpremiums Thus statistics plays anirreplaceable role in the life cycle ofinsurance business for both life and non-life insurance

Statistics help in

Measuring the stability of drugs-II) Production of drugs according to demandsIII) Effectiveness of drugsIV) Quality control of drugs V) Marketing of drugs VI) Testing the side effects of the drug with thehelp of data VII) Going through the procedure of approvaland public distribution of drugs

Statistics in developing a drug

A lot of statistics tools are used duringproduction clinical trials and marketing andpublic distribution of drugs-1 Average (mean median and mode) Usedduring experiments like stability testingcombination of chemicals and checking acidity orbasicity of solutions to calculate mean averageresults2 Standard deviation and variance It is ameasure of testing precision Can be used toevaluate precision at various points in a processor to evaluate the precision between two differentmethods of the experiment3 Q test for rejecting data It is used to checkoutliers in data ie to check unusual deviation ina data set to see if it can be statistically rejected

4 Confidence limits It helps in finding theprobability of the true value being within acalculable range It makes use of multiplyingstandard deviation with studentrsquos t-factor thatdetermines the confidence interval of theobservation at the stated confidence level5 t F Chi-square and other tests Helps incomparing the results of two data sets For egside effects of different medication in the samepopulation6 Correlation Helps to detect the relationbetween two attributes of a data for eg howthe effect of a medicine increases or decreasesdue to the change in dosage how increase ordecrease in temperature affects the stability ofcertain medication

Clinical Trials

Clinical trials are research studies that evaluatenew ways to improve treatments and quality oflife for people with disease and in presentscenario global pandemic COVID-19 Resultsfrom Clinical trials help develop

1 New drugsvaccines 2 New diagnostic tools 3 New clinical procedures

Participants volunteer for clinical trials

(28)

In this method of stratified random sampling isused to divide the volunteers into different stratabased on shared attributes or characteristicssuch as gender medical conditions and otherspecifics These stratarsquos are used in differentphases of clinical trials

Clinical trials have 4 phases

Before trial begins volunteers need tounderstand the potential benefits and potentialrisks before participating in clinical trials thatrsquoswhy pre-clinical phase is conducted to test thenew treatment on animals and healthyvolunteers This part comes under descriptivestatistics where we are using the observed(benefits and risks) for further research Phase 1- In this new treatment is tested for thefirst time to know how treatment affects thebody to determine a safe dose range forvaccine and their side effects It involvesrelatively 20-80 volunteers Stats approach-Association analysis is performed to capture thecorrelations between drug therapeuticindications and side-effects In order to achievethis goal we adopted Fishers exact test whichis a widely used approach for measuring thesignificance of the association between twonominal variables For example to test thesignificance of the association between drugtherapeutic indications A and drug side effect B

Phase 2- The study involves how well a newtreatment or combination of treatment goes wellwith certain types of patients It involves up to300 patient volunteers For example out oftotal cancer patients half of the patients areselected randomly and are given cancertreatment along with new vaccine and other halfare given cancer treatment along with standardtreatment of corona virus Now side effects inboth the cases are noted Aim is to determinewhich combination of treatment will have lessside effects Chi- square test is used tocompare the side effects in both the cases Phase 3- In this phase effectiveness of addinga new treatment to the standard treatment isstudied 100-1000 volunteers participate in thisphase Stats approach- Participants arerandomly split into two groups 1st group(treatment group) receives the standardtreatment + new vaccine and 2nd group (controlgroup) receives standard treatment + placebo(a treatment that looks identical to the newtreatment but contains no active ingredient) Inthis phase mean time taken to develop antibodies in both the groups are compared usingZ-test (Test of significance for difference inmeans)

Phase 4- In this phase no volunteers areinvolved researchersrsquo monitor drug safety andeffectiveness It involves optimal usage

Codes canrsquot lie but comments can mightseems to be simple yet very meaningful

We all live in the digital era of hightechnologies smart devices and mobilesolutions Data is an essential aspect of anybusiness Itrsquos crucial to gather process andanalyse the data flow and to do that as quicklyand accurately as possible Nowadays the datavolume can be large which makes informationhandling time-consuming and expensive Dueto this precise reason the data science industryis growing at a rapid pace creating newpossibilities as well as opportunities and pythonis one of the solutions to understand andanalyse such big data sets It is a cross-functional language that has lots of advantagesto offer This object-oriented programminglanguage is commonly used to streamline largecomplex data sets Not only this it has a highreadability that helps data analysts to save timeby typing fewer lines of code for accomplishingthe tasks Therefore itrsquos not surprising at allthat it is claimed to be the preferredprogramming language for data science

gtgt Easy to LearnBeing involved in development for web servicesmobile apps as well as coding Yes it is one ofthe most famous language characteristics Morethan that a low and thus fast learning curve isthe next pre-eminence of Python whencomparing it with older languages on offer

gtgt Well-SupportedHaving the experience of using some tools forfree you probably know that it is a challenge toget decent support but thatrsquos not the case withPython Despite the high simplicity there can besituations when you still need help with PythonBeing in widespread use like in industries oracademic areas Python has a broad array ofhelpful libraries with tons of helpful and supportmaterials The great benefit is that all thelibraries are available at no cost

gtgt ScalabilityThis Pythonrsquos feature is closely connected withthe previous option Comparing with otherlanguages like R Java python is much fasterand more scalable Therefore it is good invarious fields that can solve a wide range ofproblems Thatrsquos why many companies havemigrated to Python

ldquoCollege life is known as one of the most memorable years of astudentrsquos life exposing them to new experiences like meeting new

people learning new things exploring places etcrdquo

A registered clinical psychologist in Honk Kongnamed Zanonia Chiu said - ldquoGoing to school hadbeen a struggle for some children (withdepression) prior to the pandemic but at leastthey had school routines to stick with Now thatschools are closed some lock themselves upinside their rooms for weeks refusing to takeshowers eat or leave their beds For somechildren with depression there will beconsiderable difficulties adjusting back to normallife when college resumesrdquo and according to anonline survey conducted with the study periodfrom April 2020 to May 2020 - Total 531372 and 243 had symptoms of depressionanxiety and stress respectively with varyingseverities (N=727)The conclusion of the surveyindicated that COVID-19 is building psychologicaldistress among vulnerable college students asthey are forced to stay home along withworsening financial situations lifestyle changesfamily situations and time spent on variousactivities

Sounds so interesting and happening right Itis true indeed but along with stressful timeaside Along with the perks of enjoyingfreedom more than ever there comesacademic pressure tasks of separation fromfamilies career building futureresponsibilities etc Boarding on with thecollege life is a stressful time for manystudents thereby affecting their mental healthMental health problems are very commonamong college students and have been anincreasing concern However the COVID-19pandemic situation has brought this vulnerablepopulation into renewed focus Following thepandemic schools colleges offices andalmost every place that involved humaninteraction was shut It is important to note thatcollegeschool or even a normal routine areimportant coping mechanisms for youngpeople with mental health issues and wheneverything is shut down they lose an anchor inlife and their symptoms could relapse

Mental health among students is a big concernhowever ldquoUNTREATEDrdquo mental illnesses are amuch bigger and exponentially growingconcern Reaching out is an important step formental health issues to be addressed andtreated but reach out to who This is the pointwhere our institution should take over Collegesplay a big role in this stage Colleges doaddress this issue through means of orientationsessions and workshops but there is still a needto address mental health more directly Themethods to address mental health issuesshould be accessible feasible and affordablefor the students For example at NorthwesternUniversity student feedback led orientationenabled organizers to shift their focus fromexpert speakers to student testimonials Meansto address the issue vary from traditionalpresentations and panel discussions to roleplays small group discussions etc Herestudents learn how to recognize mental illnesssymptoms where to find resources andsupport and how to talk to friends who mightbe struggling

The findings of this study highlighted theurgent need to develop interventions andpreventive strategies to address the mentalhealth of college students Another InterviewSurvey study conducted by the Journal ofMedical Internet Research highlighted that of195 students 138 (71) indicated increasedstress and anxiety due to the COVID-19outbreak Multiple stressors were identified thatcontributed to the increased levels of stressanxiety and depressive thoughts amongstudents These included fear and worry abouttheir own health and of their loved ones(177195 91 reported negative impacts ofthe pandemic) difficulty in concentrating(173195 89) disruptions to sleepingpatterns (168195 86) decreased socialinteractions due to physical distancing(167195 86) and increased concerns onacademic performance (159195 82) Tocope with stress and anxiety participants havesought support from others and helpedthemselves by adopting either negative orpositive coping mechanisms It is important toknow that creating awareness about any issueis never enough action is what is neededTaking leave from workschool because of a fluor a fracture is acceptable and might even helpin the process of cure and healing howevertaking time off because of stress from a mentalillness such as anxiety or depressionunfortunately is not

lsquoOnline classrsquo is a term which most of us werenrsquotfamiliar with Before this pandemic we neverthought of getting education at home Covid hasaffected all of our lives In past pursuingeducation meant going to the schoolcollege Butnow the whole scenario has changed Childrenare studying and attending classes from homeJust like there are two sides of a coin onlineclasses also have some advantages anddisadvantages

Starting from the advantages it saves time forboth students and teachers as they donrsquot haveto travel All they have to do is to join throughtheir mobiles or laptops Secondly studentsdonrsquot have to necessarily buy books from theshops like they had to do in offline classesbecause they are given pdfs from which they canstudy Therefore it saves money Third it can beattended from anywhere in the world Unlike inthe offline classes where we had to gather at aparticular place Fourth computer basedpractical can be easily understood as studentscan share their screen with teachers Also it iseasy for teachers to explain a topic with the helpof pictures or animations which can be easilyfound on the internet

Last but not the least Parents can keep an eyeon their children whether they are studyingproperly or not

Apart from advantages it has somedisadvantages too First sitting beside thecomputer or mobile for hours affects the eyesightof both students and teachers Doctors arereporting many cases of eyestrain amongchildren since the online classes have startedSecondly students are becoming lazy as theydonrsquot have to go out of their home Like theproverb lsquoAll work and no play makes Jack a dullboyrsquo is really happening Third students canbunk in the online classes easily As they haveno fear of punishment they learned to disobeyand disrespect teachers Fourth students havebeen given lots of assignments as a result ofwhich most students are copying othersassignments and are not learning anything newFifth it is very difficult to communicate asteachers cannot give attention to each studentLastly it can be concluded that no matter howthe classes are being held a student must bededicated and sincere towards their studiesAfter all onersquos future depends on what they do intheir present

An actuary is a business executive professionally trained in the mathematical sciences Actuariesspecialize in the evaluation of financial riskmdashmost often in the context of life health and casualtyinsurance where they design analyse and refine varied programs to meet the insurance needs ofsociety A growing number of actuaries work in the areas of assetliability management and risk managementSome of these actuaries are employed by investment and consulting firms others are employed byinsurance companies

Actuaries have been called financial architects and social mathematicians because their combinedanalytical and business skills help solve a growing variety of financial and social problems Theactuarial profession is a demanding yet rewarding career choice

In a world bombarded with numerical information informed decisions rely on the ability to separatefact from fiction by applying valid statistical analyses and visualizations Statisticians can providecrucial guidance in determining what information is reliable and which predictions may be trustedThey often help search for clues to the solution of a scientific mystery and sometimes keepinvestigators from being misled by false impressions

Thousands of statisticians work in medicine law agriculture public policy marketing manufacturingengineering and other fields in the social and natural sciences The diversity of applications is anexciting aspect of the field and is one more reason why the demand for well-trained statisticianscontinues to be strong

The curtain lifts on Bryant Elementary Schools Spring Recorder Recital Ninety third-graders fumble with their instruments take a breath

and blow Their parents braced breathe too

as Hot Crossed Buns emerges a little scattershot -- the Normal Distribution brought to life

By Go Tell Aunt Rhodie the audience

is moved by their sheer pretty-goodness though one kid knocks her music to the floor

and another squeaks to demonstrate

the tail two standard deviations below the mean The curve implies

that somewhere on stage another kid

just played a note so sweet he might shatter Mrs Wedermeyers glasses And if

there are a mother and father who think

that child is theirs may they be forgiven even if the child shining in their eyes

is moving his fingers slightly out of rhythm

even if hes never led the bell curve in his life In consecutive measures of almost unison

its easy to believe these children are musicians

Their parents do so stirred by Ode to Joy they rise to their feet with the final phrase

clapping from the darkened auditorium

at once as one heroically like the parents theyve meant to be

EK NAYA SAFAR

Mubarak ho apko zindgi ka naya safar

Naya hai sheher nai hai dagar

Chut gaye kuch rishte purane

But donrsquot worry yaar mil jayenge naye diwane

Kuch tum jaise khuch tum se alag

So just smile and start a new life

Dosti yaari ko zara side mai rakh ke

Edhar gaur famiye janab

Course toh tumne acha chuna hai

Kuch socha hai ya ese hi liya hai

College mai admission jab hota hai

Toh andar khushi ke fuvare futne lagte hai

Lekin syllabus o dekh kar yeh bhi dagmagane lagte hai

Mana CP paas hai vahi maat ghumte rehna

Varna paper mai cafeacute ki menu sheet hi likhte rehna

Donrsquot take a chill pill coz yaha ki teachers hai thori strict

Just because they want you to be the best

Ab kya kare college ka har din mamuli nahi hota

Aur 9 se 4 sirf parai nahi hoti

Gumo firo esh karo but parna na bhulo

Mana es saal kuch zyada hi speed breakers hai

But the best part is hum sab bhi toh sath hai

PONDERINGAll of humanity is but a set of numbers You and I

are nothing more than a statisticJust think about any decision you had to take

recently No matter your choice you might findyourself ending up only as an infinitesimal

decimal in the final percentage of a statisticianrsquosdiscourse Let me give you an example pertinent

to the world we live in today Say yoursquore arepublican and have to decide whether to wear a

mask or not Naturally your political instinctmight warn you against it However you might

still be inclined to wear one because yoursquoregenuinely scared about what the ldquoliberalsrdquo have

to say about the SARS-COV-2 Now now letrsquos notgo off-topic here I know you might be wondering

what yoursquod do if you were in a Republicanrsquos shoesBut thatrsquos not the point

In the end it seldom matters whether you are arepublican or a liberal especially in situations

like these What matters in the end is if you didgo out without wearing that infuriating

smothering mask And if you contracted thewretched virus because of it If yes hard luck

Yoursquore nothing more than one of the 841 millionpeople who have it Thatrsquos all that people aroundthe world will see Not your gender not your ageand certainly not your political belief Of course

there will be studies about the correlation ofthese factors with the incidence rate of the

infections but thatrsquos another story altogether andnot one possibly as broad as the one we talk

aboutMoreover the correlation must not be

confused with causation Now perhaps thatrsquosa story for another day But think about it thisway whether you go to college or drop out of

high school whether you choose to live ordecide to die no matter the decision no

matter your inclination or choice whetheryou like it or not you will be nothing more

than a statisticIt might sound a bit gloomy to be honestWhen I first thought about it I felt almostinsignificant Like a tiny speck of dust in a

galaxy of stars Alas isnrsquot that all that we arethough

A pale blue dot in an ocean of stars Ourplanet one among millions or perhaps

billions of others All 78 billion of us fightingfor a place in the world knowing full well we

canrsquot all possibly have it It might makeanyone feel overwhelmed but therersquos

something about that that is so challenging itis almost inspiring We all know statistics andwe all know life But the true beauty of life lies

in the ability to defy statistics Only onequestion remains are you up for the

challenge

Be it research finance sports marketing sales health care or population countingIt is a crucial process behind How we make discoveries in science

Making decisions or claiming predictions It plays a crucial play in all situationsStats is involved everywhere from collection to interpretation From explanation to

It always seems impossible until it is done

If it makes you happyit doesnt have to make sense to others

When you cant find the sunshinebe the sunshine

Either you run the day or let the day run you

When you focus on the goodthe good gets better

It takes the same energy to worry as it doesto be positive so use your energy to thinkpositive and positive things will happen

The one thing that doesnt abide by majority rule is a persons conscience

Make happiness a priority and be gentle with yourself in the process

College the best start to unfold lifes beauty

Goodbye to the mistakes weve made remember the laughs weve shared

Will never forget these years

People are capable at anytime in their lives of doing what they dream of

productivity and replace it by degree ofpresence

May every sunrise bring you hopeMay every sunset bring you peace

If you dont believe in yourself thenno one is going to believe in you So

Believe in Yourself

Be who you are and say what you feelbecause those who mind donrsquot matter and

those who matter donrsquot mind

Success is liking yourself liking what you do and liking how you do it

Happiness is a by-product of an effort to make someone else happy

If you are not willing to risk the unusual you will have to settle for the ordinary

Always keep it clean simple and precise

Hustle until you no longer have to introduce yourself

Dream it Wish it Do it

There are no limits to what you can accomplish except the limits you place

on your own thinking

The greatness of humanity is not in being human but in being humane

You will be exactly as happy as you decide

One thing to learn from the sun is thatwhenever a cloud tries to hinder itslight it finds its own path to shine

Excellence is not achieved - it is aspired to and trekked towards The tougher the trek

the better the views

I think the day we figure out everythingabout our lives is the day we die

Finding your magic can be scary but owning it will be EUPHORIA

An approximate answer to the right problem is worth a good deal more than

an exact answer to an approximate problem

Our greatest weakness lies in giving up The most certain way to succeed is always to try just one more time

The aim is to live happily heal throughevery situation and learn everything new

with every step taken

Believe in progress not perfection

Croxton and Cowden defines statistics as the science of collection presentation analysis andinterpretation of numerical data Progressively the Statistics subject come to be more and more popular and its application hasbecome more extensive Now almost there is no field of human activity where statistics are not usedNowadays it is used by economists businessmen scientists administrators etc To be more preciseabout the importance of statistics in our life lets discuss some astonishing reasons that we haveoverheard on several occasions

1 Everyone lookout for weather forecasting Have you ever thought how do you acquire thatinformation There are some computer models constructed on the basis of statistical conceptsThese computer models relate past weather with the present weather and predict future weather

2 Statistics frequently used by the researchers They use their statistical skills to collect therelevant data Otherwise it results in a loss of money time and data

3 What do you understand by insurance Everyone has some kind of insurance whether it ismedical home or any other insurance Several businesses use statistical models based on anindividual application to calculate the risk of giving insurance Life tables are indispensable for thesolution of all questions relating to the duration of human life 4 Statistic plays significant role in financial market Statistics are the key of how traders andbusinessmen invest and make money

5 Statistics play a big role in the medical field For testing the efficacy of a manufacturing druginjection or medicine for controlling curing specific ailments most of the applications of medicalfields lies in using the tests of significance (more precisely studentrsquos t-test) The testing of theeffectiveness of a medicine by the manufacturing concern is a must since only after theeffectiveness of the medicine is proven by the sound statistical techniques that it will venture tomanufacture it on a large scale and bring it out in the market By statistical techniques (t and Fsignificance tests) comparative study of different medicines can also be made

(18)

6 In industry Statistical techniques are used in quality testing Companies manufacture manyproducts on a daily basis and every company make sure that they sell the best quality items Butcompanies cannot test all the products so they use sampling techniques which are a very importantaspect of statistical theory 7 We make variety of predictions in daily life For examples we keep the alarm for the morningwhen we donrsquot know that we will be alive in the morning or not Here we use statistics basics to makepredictions

8 Using statistics concepts doctors predict disease Suppose a survey shows that 75-80people have cancer and not able to find the reason Where the statistics is involved there you canhave a better idea on how the cancer may affect your body

9 News reporter makes a prediction of winner for elections based on political campaigns Herestatistics play a very important role to find out who will form the government 10 Statistics data allow us to collect the information around the world The internet is a devisewhich help us to collect the information The fundamental behind the internet is based on statisticsand mathematics concepts 11 Not only in peace times but in war times also statistics can be used very effectively It ispractically not possible to face a war without the factual data concerning the military strength of theenemy in terms of manpower military tanks war aeroplanes missiles ammunition etc

BIOSTATISTICS is the application of statisticalmethods in studies in biology andencompasses the design of experiments thecollection of data from them and the analysisand interpretation of data The data comes froma wide range of sources including genomicstudies experiments with cells and organismsand clinical trials Biostatistics is the applicationof statistical principles to questions andproblems in medicine public health or biologyOne can imagine that it might be of interest tocharacterize a given population with respect tothe proportion who has asthma and it wouldalso be important to estimate the magnitude ofthese problems over time or perhaps in differentlocations Statistics is a science of compilingclassifying and tabulating numerical data andexpressing the results in a mathematical andgraphical form whereas biostatistics is thebranch of statistics concerned with themathematical facts and data related to biologicalevents

Francis Galton created the statistical conceptcorrelation Sir Galton for the first time usedstatistical tools to study differences amonghuman population He also invented the use ofquestionnaires surveys for collecting data onhuman communities Biostatistics are the eventand application of statistical method to a goodrange of topic in biology It encompasses theplanning of biological experiments the gatheringand analysis of knowledge from thoseexperiments and therefore the interpretation ofthe results Biostatistics is sometimesdistinguished from the field of biometry basedupon whether applications are in the healthsciences (bio statistics) or in broader biology(biometry example agriculture ecology wildlifebiology) More and more things are nowmeasured quantitatively in medicine and publichealth There is a great deal of inherent variationin most biological processes Public health andmedicine are becoming increasingly quantitative

(20)

It is used to test whether the differencebetween two populations is real or by chanceoccurrence to study the correlation betweenattributes in the same population and toevaluate the achievements of public healthprograms Biostatistics has applications in allthe branches of life sciences such as formapping chromosomes for studying thebehavior of genes in a population and forconduction of drug treatment trails etcBiostatistics deals with data arising frombiomedical research It remains a very activeresearch area with complicated time-to-eventdata and missing data emerging in applicationareas including medicine geneticsneuroscience and engineering Recentadvances in biomedical research have creatednew challenges and opportunities forstatisticians and data scientists For examplebig data analysis precision medicine artificialintelligence causal inference and other newresearch fields have inspired data scientists todevelop modern statistical methods andinnovative inference procedures

As technology progresses the physicianencounters more and more quantitative ratherthan descriptive information In one sensestatistics is the language of assembling andhandling quantitative material Even if onersquosconcern is only with the results of other peoplersquosmanipulation and assemblage of data it isimportant to achieve some understanding of thislanguage in order to interpret their resultsproperly Statistics pervades the medicalliterature As a consequence of the increasinglyquantitative nature of public health and medicineand its reliance on statistical methodology themedical literature is replete with reports in whichstatistical techniques are used extensivelyBiostatistics is used to determine how diseasesdevelop progress and spread

For example biostatisticians use statistics topredict the behavior of an illness like flu It is usedto help predict the mortality rate the symptomsand even the time of year people might get it

Over 50 years ago there was a subject whichwas unnoticed and mainly focused on the studyand analysis of data Statisticians urgedacademic statistics to transcend its boundariesbeyond the realm of theoretical statistics Morestress was laid on data presentation Datascience is a discipline which is guided bycomputing informatics operation researchmathematics and statistics

Statistics is treated as the most important tool insorting and analysing data It is beneficial ingiving a deeper vision of the data Statisticswidely depends upon experiments and surveysWith the help of descriptive statisticscalculations like mean median etc can bedone on the data On the other hand inferentialstatistics helps in drawing inferences andconclusions from the population Both domainsof statistics play a very important role in DataScience In order to get a structured data andmaking predictions statistical methods and toolsare very essential They are able to carry outmany analytical tasks

Statistical Analysis is the study of surveying agiven set of data and observing patterns andtrends It is used in research fields to createstatistical models for performing certainexperiments on a population

The focus is to gather information from thesmallest quantity of data The experimentsinvolve accurate calculations and therefore giverespective results Statistics forms the base ofData Science It requires optimization of hugedatabases which is achieved with the help ofdifferent statistical tools In todayrsquos data drivenworld Data Science is turning out to be one ofthe most demanded professions Almost all firmsand companies are in search of data scientistsas the data keeps on piling up and the need ofinterpreting analysing and cleaning it is risingThe ultimate aim of Statistics and Data Scienceis to extricate cognizance from large amounts ofdata

Whenever the word lsquobusinessrsquo is heard lsquosalesrsquo isthe word which comes to our mind next and whatexactly assists sales is STATISTICS Donrsquotbelieve me but I am sure after reading the articleyou would all agree to my point too So what doesa businessman do He manufactures and sellsthe goods produced to the public but both ofthese basic functions of the businessman cannotbe transcended without the help of statistics toolssuch as survey statistics driven softwares tocollect and analyse the demand of the customerand to what extent ie the quantity in which it isrequired in order to maximize their total revenueThe graphs and the tables formed ie the statshelp them to know the exact condition of themarket and its inclination so that they could comeout with offers and discounts in order to attractpublic towards their product maximizing theirsales The businessmen who is believed to bevery quick and accurate in decision making is allassisted by statistics at every point fromanalysing their sales profit margins wages of theemployees the improvements required in theproduct the billing counters are all carriedforward with the help of statistical tools Thefinancial resources required for investing in thebusiness are also arranged according to theassistance given by the data analysts Themarketing and advertisement of the products alsoneeds statistics Now you would be thinking how

amp its regular maintenance is all handled bystatistical applications In order to calculate theaverage mean median loss profit and all theother commerce related terms in businessesdealing with large amount of data is all handledby statisticians Statistics also helps inmaintaining employee performancemanagement A manager collects data aboutemployee productivity such as the number oftasks completed or the number of unitsproduced He or she must analyse data to findways in which an employee should improve toachieve maximum productivity Manycompanies also collect data about employeeengagement and happiness on the job whichcan be tracked to not only keep workersmotivated but ensure they dont leave for otherpositions elsewhere This helps in increasingthe efficiency of the employees and also createsa healthy working environment I have listed lotof points to prove the importance of statistics inbusinesses and hope that you will now agree towhat I mentioned in the beginning of the article

Whenever a method of marketing is thought thepercentage of people to get influenced the agegroup to target the kind of offers to be laid downare all done through statistics You might haveheard that now data is the new oil that means lifeis all surrounded with data and for the data andthe demand for its upkeep and analysis the dataanalysts are required and in big organizationswho actually target all age groups and sell allkinds of products on a large scale have a largedatabase not only of the customers but also oftheir n number of employees So an organizationis incomplete without data and where there isdata there is statistics In fact I would say thatan organization isnrsquot an organization if they donot have data and its proper upkeep in such acase the company will surely drain out so thisactually proves how important statistics hasbecome in the business point of view Thebanking sector canrsquot function without statisticsand this banking business forms the backbone ofthe country since all the customers of the bankhave loads of data for a particular bank account

Statistics help in

Measuring the stability of drugs-II) Production of drugs according to demandsIII) Effectiveness of drugsIV) Quality control of drugs V) Marketing of drugs VI) Testing the side effects of the drug with thehelp of data VII) Going through the procedure of approvaland public distribution of drugs

Statistics in developing a drug

A lot of statistics tools are used duringproduction clinical trials and marketing andpublic distribution of drugs-1 Average (mean median and mode) Usedduring experiments like stability testingcombination of chemicals and checking acidity orbasicity of solutions to calculate mean averageresults2 Standard deviation and variance It is ameasure of testing precision Can be used toevaluate precision at various points in a processor to evaluate the precision between two differentmethods of the experiment3 Q test for rejecting data It is used to checkoutliers in data ie to check unusual deviation ina data set to see if it can be statistically rejected

4 Confidence limits It helps in finding theprobability of the true value being within acalculable range It makes use of multiplyingstandard deviation with studentrsquos t-factor thatdetermines the confidence interval of theobservation at the stated confidence level5 t F Chi-square and other tests Helps incomparing the results of two data sets For egside effects of different medication in the samepopulation6 Correlation Helps to detect the relationbetween two attributes of a data for eg howthe effect of a medicine increases or decreasesdue to the change in dosage how increase ordecrease in temperature affects the stability ofcertain medication

Clinical Trials

Clinical trials are research studies that evaluatenew ways to improve treatments and quality oflife for people with disease and in presentscenario global pandemic COVID-19 Resultsfrom Clinical trials help develop

1 New drugsvaccines 2 New diagnostic tools 3 New clinical procedures

Participants volunteer for clinical trials

(28)

In this method of stratified random sampling isused to divide the volunteers into different stratabased on shared attributes or characteristicssuch as gender medical conditions and otherspecifics These stratarsquos are used in differentphases of clinical trials

Clinical trials have 4 phases

Before trial begins volunteers need tounderstand the potential benefits and potentialrisks before participating in clinical trials thatrsquoswhy pre-clinical phase is conducted to test thenew treatment on animals and healthyvolunteers This part comes under descriptivestatistics where we are using the observed(benefits and risks) for further research Phase 1- In this new treatment is tested for thefirst time to know how treatment affects thebody to determine a safe dose range forvaccine and their side effects It involvesrelatively 20-80 volunteers Stats approach-Association analysis is performed to capture thecorrelations between drug therapeuticindications and side-effects In order to achievethis goal we adopted Fishers exact test whichis a widely used approach for measuring thesignificance of the association between twonominal variables For example to test thesignificance of the association between drugtherapeutic indications A and drug side effect B

Phase 2- The study involves how well a newtreatment or combination of treatment goes wellwith certain types of patients It involves up to300 patient volunteers For example out oftotal cancer patients half of the patients areselected randomly and are given cancertreatment along with new vaccine and other halfare given cancer treatment along with standardtreatment of corona virus Now side effects inboth the cases are noted Aim is to determinewhich combination of treatment will have lessside effects Chi- square test is used tocompare the side effects in both the cases Phase 3- In this phase effectiveness of addinga new treatment to the standard treatment isstudied 100-1000 volunteers participate in thisphase Stats approach- Participants arerandomly split into two groups 1st group(treatment group) receives the standardtreatment + new vaccine and 2nd group (controlgroup) receives standard treatment + placebo(a treatment that looks identical to the newtreatment but contains no active ingredient) Inthis phase mean time taken to develop antibodies in both the groups are compared usingZ-test (Test of significance for difference inmeans)

Phase 4- In this phase no volunteers areinvolved researchersrsquo monitor drug safety andeffectiveness It involves optimal usage

ldquoCollege life is known as one of the most memorable years of astudentrsquos life exposing them to new experiences like meeting new

people learning new things exploring places etcrdquo

A registered clinical psychologist in Honk Kongnamed Zanonia Chiu said - ldquoGoing to school hadbeen a struggle for some children (withdepression) prior to the pandemic but at leastthey had school routines to stick with Now thatschools are closed some lock themselves upinside their rooms for weeks refusing to takeshowers eat or leave their beds For somechildren with depression there will beconsiderable difficulties adjusting back to normallife when college resumesrdquo and according to anonline survey conducted with the study periodfrom April 2020 to May 2020 - Total 531372 and 243 had symptoms of depressionanxiety and stress respectively with varyingseverities (N=727)The conclusion of the surveyindicated that COVID-19 is building psychologicaldistress among vulnerable college students asthey are forced to stay home along withworsening financial situations lifestyle changesfamily situations and time spent on variousactivities

Sounds so interesting and happening right Itis true indeed but along with stressful timeaside Along with the perks of enjoyingfreedom more than ever there comesacademic pressure tasks of separation fromfamilies career building futureresponsibilities etc Boarding on with thecollege life is a stressful time for manystudents thereby affecting their mental healthMental health problems are very commonamong college students and have been anincreasing concern However the COVID-19pandemic situation has brought this vulnerablepopulation into renewed focus Following thepandemic schools colleges offices andalmost every place that involved humaninteraction was shut It is important to note thatcollegeschool or even a normal routine areimportant coping mechanisms for youngpeople with mental health issues and wheneverything is shut down they lose an anchor inlife and their symptoms could relapse

Mental health among students is a big concernhowever ldquoUNTREATEDrdquo mental illnesses are amuch bigger and exponentially growingconcern Reaching out is an important step formental health issues to be addressed andtreated but reach out to who This is the pointwhere our institution should take over Collegesplay a big role in this stage Colleges doaddress this issue through means of orientationsessions and workshops but there is still a needto address mental health more directly Themethods to address mental health issuesshould be accessible feasible and affordablefor the students For example at NorthwesternUniversity student feedback led orientationenabled organizers to shift their focus fromexpert speakers to student testimonials Meansto address the issue vary from traditionalpresentations and panel discussions to roleplays small group discussions etc Herestudents learn how to recognize mental illnesssymptoms where to find resources andsupport and how to talk to friends who mightbe struggling

The findings of this study highlighted theurgent need to develop interventions andpreventive strategies to address the mentalhealth of college students Another InterviewSurvey study conducted by the Journal ofMedical Internet Research highlighted that of195 students 138 (71) indicated increasedstress and anxiety due to the COVID-19outbreak Multiple stressors were identified thatcontributed to the increased levels of stressanxiety and depressive thoughts amongstudents These included fear and worry abouttheir own health and of their loved ones(177195 91 reported negative impacts ofthe pandemic) difficulty in concentrating(173195 89) disruptions to sleepingpatterns (168195 86) decreased socialinteractions due to physical distancing(167195 86) and increased concerns onacademic performance (159195 82) Tocope with stress and anxiety participants havesought support from others and helpedthemselves by adopting either negative orpositive coping mechanisms It is important toknow that creating awareness about any issueis never enough action is what is neededTaking leave from workschool because of a fluor a fracture is acceptable and might even helpin the process of cure and healing howevertaking time off because of stress from a mentalillness such as anxiety or depressionunfortunately is not

lsquoOnline classrsquo is a term which most of us werenrsquotfamiliar with Before this pandemic we neverthought of getting education at home Covid hasaffected all of our lives In past pursuingeducation meant going to the schoolcollege Butnow the whole scenario has changed Childrenare studying and attending classes from homeJust like there are two sides of a coin onlineclasses also have some advantages anddisadvantages

Starting from the advantages it saves time forboth students and teachers as they donrsquot haveto travel All they have to do is to join throughtheir mobiles or laptops Secondly studentsdonrsquot have to necessarily buy books from theshops like they had to do in offline classesbecause they are given pdfs from which they canstudy Therefore it saves money Third it can beattended from anywhere in the world Unlike inthe offline classes where we had to gather at aparticular place Fourth computer basedpractical can be easily understood as studentscan share their screen with teachers Also it iseasy for teachers to explain a topic with the helpof pictures or animations which can be easilyfound on the internet

Last but not the least Parents can keep an eyeon their children whether they are studyingproperly or not

Apart from advantages it has somedisadvantages too First sitting beside thecomputer or mobile for hours affects the eyesightof both students and teachers Doctors arereporting many cases of eyestrain amongchildren since the online classes have startedSecondly students are becoming lazy as theydonrsquot have to go out of their home Like theproverb lsquoAll work and no play makes Jack a dullboyrsquo is really happening Third students canbunk in the online classes easily As they haveno fear of punishment they learned to disobeyand disrespect teachers Fourth students havebeen given lots of assignments as a result ofwhich most students are copying othersassignments and are not learning anything newFifth it is very difficult to communicate asteachers cannot give attention to each studentLastly it can be concluded that no matter howthe classes are being held a student must bededicated and sincere towards their studiesAfter all onersquos future depends on what they do intheir present

An actuary is a business executive professionally trained in the mathematical sciences Actuariesspecialize in the evaluation of financial riskmdashmost often in the context of life health and casualtyinsurance where they design analyse and refine varied programs to meet the insurance needs ofsociety A growing number of actuaries work in the areas of assetliability management and risk managementSome of these actuaries are employed by investment and consulting firms others are employed byinsurance companies

Actuaries have been called financial architects and social mathematicians because their combinedanalytical and business skills help solve a growing variety of financial and social problems Theactuarial profession is a demanding yet rewarding career choice

In a world bombarded with numerical information informed decisions rely on the ability to separatefact from fiction by applying valid statistical analyses and visualizations Statisticians can providecrucial guidance in determining what information is reliable and which predictions may be trustedThey often help search for clues to the solution of a scientific mystery and sometimes keepinvestigators from being misled by false impressions

Thousands of statisticians work in medicine law agriculture public policy marketing manufacturingengineering and other fields in the social and natural sciences The diversity of applications is anexciting aspect of the field and is one more reason why the demand for well-trained statisticianscontinues to be strong

Poetry

Contributed by Dr Komal Goel

by Anubis the Philosomancer

(41)

Contributed by Dr Meenu Goel

The curtain lifts on Bryant Elementary Schools Spring Recorder Recital Ninety third-graders fumble with their instruments take a breath

and blow Their parents braced breathe too

as Hot Crossed Buns emerges a little scattershot -- the Normal Distribution brought to life

By Go Tell Aunt Rhodie the audience

is moved by their sheer pretty-goodness though one kid knocks her music to the floor

and another squeaks to demonstrate

the tail two standard deviations below the mean The curve implies

that somewhere on stage another kid

just played a note so sweet he might shatter Mrs Wedermeyers glasses And if

there are a mother and father who think

that child is theirs may they be forgiven even if the child shining in their eyes

is moving his fingers slightly out of rhythm

even if hes never led the bell curve in his life In consecutive measures of almost unison

its easy to believe these children are musicians

Their parents do so stirred by Ode to Joy they rise to their feet with the final phrase

clapping from the darkened auditorium

at once as one heroically like the parents theyve meant to be

EK NAYA SAFAR

Mubarak ho apko zindgi ka naya safar

Naya hai sheher nai hai dagar

Chut gaye kuch rishte purane

But donrsquot worry yaar mil jayenge naye diwane

Kuch tum jaise khuch tum se alag

So just smile and start a new life

Dosti yaari ko zara side mai rakh ke

Edhar gaur famiye janab

Course toh tumne acha chuna hai

Kuch socha hai ya ese hi liya hai

College mai admission jab hota hai

Toh andar khushi ke fuvare futne lagte hai

Lekin syllabus o dekh kar yeh bhi dagmagane lagte hai

Mana CP paas hai vahi maat ghumte rehna

Varna paper mai cafeacute ki menu sheet hi likhte rehna

Donrsquot take a chill pill coz yaha ki teachers hai thori strict

Just because they want you to be the best

Ab kya kare college ka har din mamuli nahi hota

Aur 9 se 4 sirf parai nahi hoti

Gumo firo esh karo but parna na bhulo

Mana es saal kuch zyada hi speed breakers hai

But the best part is hum sab bhi toh sath hai

PONDERINGAll of humanity is but a set of numbers You and I

are nothing more than a statisticJust think about any decision you had to take

recently No matter your choice you might findyourself ending up only as an infinitesimal

decimal in the final percentage of a statisticianrsquosdiscourse Let me give you an example pertinent

to the world we live in today Say yoursquore arepublican and have to decide whether to wear a

mask or not Naturally your political instinctmight warn you against it However you might

still be inclined to wear one because yoursquoregenuinely scared about what the ldquoliberalsrdquo have

to say about the SARS-COV-2 Now now letrsquos notgo off-topic here I know you might be wondering

what yoursquod do if you were in a Republicanrsquos shoesBut thatrsquos not the point

In the end it seldom matters whether you are arepublican or a liberal especially in situations

like these What matters in the end is if you didgo out without wearing that infuriating

smothering mask And if you contracted thewretched virus because of it If yes hard luck

Yoursquore nothing more than one of the 841 millionpeople who have it Thatrsquos all that people aroundthe world will see Not your gender not your ageand certainly not your political belief Of course

there will be studies about the correlation ofthese factors with the incidence rate of the

infections but thatrsquos another story altogether andnot one possibly as broad as the one we talk

aboutMoreover the correlation must not be

confused with causation Now perhaps thatrsquosa story for another day But think about it thisway whether you go to college or drop out of

high school whether you choose to live ordecide to die no matter the decision no

matter your inclination or choice whetheryou like it or not you will be nothing more

than a statisticIt might sound a bit gloomy to be honestWhen I first thought about it I felt almostinsignificant Like a tiny speck of dust in a

galaxy of stars Alas isnrsquot that all that we arethough

A pale blue dot in an ocean of stars Ourplanet one among millions or perhaps

billions of others All 78 billion of us fightingfor a place in the world knowing full well we

canrsquot all possibly have it It might makeanyone feel overwhelmed but therersquos

something about that that is so challenging itis almost inspiring We all know statistics andwe all know life But the true beauty of life lies

in the ability to defy statistics Only onequestion remains are you up for the

challenge

It wonrsquot be any exaggeration If itrsquos said that tools of statistician are used in almost all fields ofcalculation

Be it research finance sports marketing sales health care or population countingIt is a crucial process behind How we make discoveries in science

It always seems impossible until it is done

If it makes you happyit doesnt have to make sense to others

When you cant find the sunshinebe the sunshine

Either you run the day or let the day run you

When you focus on the goodthe good gets better

It takes the same energy to worry as it doesto be positive so use your energy to thinkpositive and positive things will happen

The one thing that doesnt abide by majority rule is a persons conscience

Make happiness a priority and be gentle with yourself in the process

College the best start to unfold lifes beauty

Goodbye to the mistakes weve made remember the laughs weve shared

Will never forget these years

Believe in Yourself

Be who you are and say what you feelbecause those who mind donrsquot matter and

those who matter donrsquot mind

Success is liking yourself liking what you do and liking how you do it

Happiness is a by-product of an effort to make someone else happy

If you are not willing to risk the unusual you will have to settle for the ordinary

Always keep it clean simple and precise

Hustle until you no longer have to introduce yourself

Croxton and Cowden defines statistics as the science of collection presentation analysis andinterpretation of numerical data Progressively the Statistics subject come to be more and more popular and its application hasbecome more extensive Now almost there is no field of human activity where statistics are not usedNowadays it is used by economists businessmen scientists administrators etc To be more preciseabout the importance of statistics in our life lets discuss some astonishing reasons that we haveoverheard on several occasions

1 Everyone lookout for weather forecasting Have you ever thought how do you acquire thatinformation There are some computer models constructed on the basis of statistical conceptsThese computer models relate past weather with the present weather and predict future weather

2 Statistics frequently used by the researchers They use their statistical skills to collect therelevant data Otherwise it results in a loss of money time and data

3 What do you understand by insurance Everyone has some kind of insurance whether it ismedical home or any other insurance Several businesses use statistical models based on anindividual application to calculate the risk of giving insurance Life tables are indispensable for thesolution of all questions relating to the duration of human life 4 Statistic plays significant role in financial market Statistics are the key of how traders andbusinessmen invest and make money

5 Statistics play a big role in the medical field For testing the efficacy of a manufacturing druginjection or medicine for controlling curing specific ailments most of the applications of medicalfields lies in using the tests of significance (more precisely studentrsquos t-test) The testing of theeffectiveness of a medicine by the manufacturing concern is a must since only after theeffectiveness of the medicine is proven by the sound statistical techniques that it will venture tomanufacture it on a large scale and bring it out in the market By statistical techniques (t and Fsignificance tests) comparative study of different medicines can also be made

(18)

6 In industry Statistical techniques are used in quality testing Companies manufacture manyproducts on a daily basis and every company make sure that they sell the best quality items Butcompanies cannot test all the products so they use sampling techniques which are a very importantaspect of statistical theory 7 We make variety of predictions in daily life For examples we keep the alarm for the morningwhen we donrsquot know that we will be alive in the morning or not Here we use statistics basics to makepredictions

8 Using statistics concepts doctors predict disease Suppose a survey shows that 75-80people have cancer and not able to find the reason Where the statistics is involved there you canhave a better idea on how the cancer may affect your body

9 News reporter makes a prediction of winner for elections based on political campaigns Herestatistics play a very important role to find out who will form the government 10 Statistics data allow us to collect the information around the world The internet is a devisewhich help us to collect the information The fundamental behind the internet is based on statisticsand mathematics concepts 11 Not only in peace times but in war times also statistics can be used very effectively It ispractically not possible to face a war without the factual data concerning the military strength of theenemy in terms of manpower military tanks war aeroplanes missiles ammunition etc

BIOSTATISTICS is the application of statisticalmethods in studies in biology andencompasses the design of experiments thecollection of data from them and the analysisand interpretation of data The data comes froma wide range of sources including genomicstudies experiments with cells and organismsand clinical trials Biostatistics is the applicationof statistical principles to questions andproblems in medicine public health or biologyOne can imagine that it might be of interest tocharacterize a given population with respect tothe proportion who has asthma and it wouldalso be important to estimate the magnitude ofthese problems over time or perhaps in differentlocations Statistics is a science of compilingclassifying and tabulating numerical data andexpressing the results in a mathematical andgraphical form whereas biostatistics is thebranch of statistics concerned with themathematical facts and data related to biologicalevents

Francis Galton created the statistical conceptcorrelation Sir Galton for the first time usedstatistical tools to study differences amonghuman population He also invented the use ofquestionnaires surveys for collecting data onhuman communities Biostatistics are the eventand application of statistical method to a goodrange of topic in biology It encompasses theplanning of biological experiments the gatheringand analysis of knowledge from thoseexperiments and therefore the interpretation ofthe results Biostatistics is sometimesdistinguished from the field of biometry basedupon whether applications are in the healthsciences (bio statistics) or in broader biology(biometry example agriculture ecology wildlifebiology) More and more things are nowmeasured quantitatively in medicine and publichealth There is a great deal of inherent variationin most biological processes Public health andmedicine are becoming increasingly quantitative

(20)

It is used to test whether the differencebetween two populations is real or by chanceoccurrence to study the correlation betweenattributes in the same population and toevaluate the achievements of public healthprograms Biostatistics has applications in allthe branches of life sciences such as formapping chromosomes for studying thebehavior of genes in a population and forconduction of drug treatment trails etcBiostatistics deals with data arising frombiomedical research It remains a very activeresearch area with complicated time-to-eventdata and missing data emerging in applicationareas including medicine geneticsneuroscience and engineering Recentadvances in biomedical research have creatednew challenges and opportunities forstatisticians and data scientists For examplebig data analysis precision medicine artificialintelligence causal inference and other newresearch fields have inspired data scientists todevelop modern statistical methods andinnovative inference procedures

As technology progresses the physicianencounters more and more quantitative ratherthan descriptive information In one sensestatistics is the language of assembling andhandling quantitative material Even if onersquosconcern is only with the results of other peoplersquosmanipulation and assemblage of data it isimportant to achieve some understanding of thislanguage in order to interpret their resultsproperly Statistics pervades the medicalliterature As a consequence of the increasinglyquantitative nature of public health and medicineand its reliance on statistical methodology themedical literature is replete with reports in whichstatistical techniques are used extensivelyBiostatistics is used to determine how diseasesdevelop progress and spread

For example biostatisticians use statistics topredict the behavior of an illness like flu It is usedto help predict the mortality rate the symptomsand even the time of year people might get it

(21)

Over 50 years ago there was a subject whichwas unnoticed and mainly focused on the studyand analysis of data Statisticians urgedacademic statistics to transcend its boundariesbeyond the realm of theoretical statistics Morestress was laid on data presentation Datascience is a discipline which is guided bycomputing informatics operation researchmathematics and statistics

Statistics is treated as the most important tool insorting and analysing data It is beneficial ingiving a deeper vision of the data Statisticswidely depends upon experiments and surveysWith the help of descriptive statisticscalculations like mean median etc can bedone on the data On the other hand inferentialstatistics helps in drawing inferences andconclusions from the population Both domainsof statistics play a very important role in DataScience In order to get a structured data andmaking predictions statistical methods and toolsare very essential They are able to carry outmany analytical tasks

Statistical Analysis is the study of surveying agiven set of data and observing patterns andtrends It is used in research fields to createstatistical models for performing certainexperiments on a population

The focus is to gather information from thesmallest quantity of data The experimentsinvolve accurate calculations and therefore giverespective results Statistics forms the base ofData Science It requires optimization of hugedatabases which is achieved with the help ofdifferent statistical tools In todayrsquos data drivenworld Data Science is turning out to be one ofthe most demanded professions Almost all firmsand companies are in search of data scientistsas the data keeps on piling up and the need ofinterpreting analysing and cleaning it is risingThe ultimate aim of Statistics and Data Scienceis to extricate cognizance from large amounts ofdata

Whenever the word lsquobusinessrsquo is heard lsquosalesrsquo isthe word which comes to our mind next and whatexactly assists sales is STATISTICS Donrsquotbelieve me but I am sure after reading the articleyou would all agree to my point too So what doesa businessman do He manufactures and sellsthe goods produced to the public but both ofthese basic functions of the businessman cannotbe transcended without the help of statistics toolssuch as survey statistics driven softwares tocollect and analyse the demand of the customerand to what extent ie the quantity in which it isrequired in order to maximize their total revenueThe graphs and the tables formed ie the statshelp them to know the exact condition of themarket and its inclination so that they could comeout with offers and discounts in order to attractpublic towards their product maximizing theirsales The businessmen who is believed to bevery quick and accurate in decision making is allassisted by statistics at every point fromanalysing their sales profit margins wages of theemployees the improvements required in theproduct the billing counters are all carriedforward with the help of statistical tools Thefinancial resources required for investing in thebusiness are also arranged according to theassistance given by the data analysts Themarketing and advertisement of the products alsoneeds statistics Now you would be thinking how

amp its regular maintenance is all handled bystatistical applications In order to calculate theaverage mean median loss profit and all theother commerce related terms in businessesdealing with large amount of data is all handledby statisticians Statistics also helps inmaintaining employee performancemanagement A manager collects data aboutemployee productivity such as the number oftasks completed or the number of unitsproduced He or she must analyse data to findways in which an employee should improve toachieve maximum productivity Manycompanies also collect data about employeeengagement and happiness on the job whichcan be tracked to not only keep workersmotivated but ensure they dont leave for otherpositions elsewhere This helps in increasingthe efficiency of the employees and also createsa healthy working environment I have listed lotof points to prove the importance of statistics inbusinesses and hope that you will now agree towhat I mentioned in the beginning of the article

Whenever a method of marketing is thought thepercentage of people to get influenced the agegroup to target the kind of offers to be laid downare all done through statistics You might haveheard that now data is the new oil that means lifeis all surrounded with data and for the data andthe demand for its upkeep and analysis the dataanalysts are required and in big organizationswho actually target all age groups and sell allkinds of products on a large scale have a largedatabase not only of the customers but also oftheir n number of employees So an organizationis incomplete without data and where there isdata there is statistics In fact I would say thatan organization isnrsquot an organization if they donot have data and its proper upkeep in such acase the company will surely drain out so thisactually proves how important statistics hasbecome in the business point of view Thebanking sector canrsquot function without statisticsand this banking business forms the backbone ofthe country since all the customers of the bankhave loads of data for a particular bank account

By Prekshi Singhal and Payal Gupta ( 3rd Year )

Statistics is the science of learning from dataStatistical knowledge helps an individual to usethe proper methods for collecting data employthe correct analysis and present the resultseffectively Statistical analysis is thus used inalmost all fields to make sense out of the vastamount of data that is available Thus statisticalmethodologies are not only useful in drawingimportant results but also play a significant role inproducing new findings and understanding thework of others One such field which has wideuse of the statistical techniques andmethodologies is the Insurance Sector Insuranceis basically the business of risk as it involves thetransfer of risk from one party to another

The main incoming and outgoing source ofincome in the business of insurance is throughpremiums and claims respectively Manystatistical models are used to model claimsand losses Parameters for these distributionsare estimated using Method of momentMaximum likelihood estimates etc and thenGoodness of fit testis applied to check howwell our distribution fits to the data Timeseries model plays an important role inforecasting future values Statistics is used toanswer the most important questions for theinsurance industry What percentage ofpolicies are expected to payout How muchmoney the company must expect to payout inclaims Different methods of data collectioneither in primary or secondary form are usedto determine the required reserves premiumand future predictions Apart from this manystatistical methods for eg Linear modelmethod which uses regression as the maintool in determining the factors affectingpremiums Loss distribution method in whichhistogram and bar graphs are made tocompare different categories and complexstatistical tools such as Ruin Theory and Run-off triangles are used to develop newproducts absorb and evaluate risk and ruinwhen balancing claims reserves andpremiums Thus statistics plays anirreplaceable role in the life cycle ofinsurance business for both life and non-life insurance

Statistics help in

Measuring the stability of drugs-II) Production of drugs according to demandsIII) Effectiveness of drugsIV) Quality control of drugs V) Marketing of drugs VI) Testing the side effects of the drug with thehelp of data VII) Going through the procedure of approvaland public distribution of drugs

Statistics in developing a drug

A lot of statistics tools are used duringproduction clinical trials and marketing andpublic distribution of drugs-1 Average (mean median and mode) Usedduring experiments like stability testingcombination of chemicals and checking acidity orbasicity of solutions to calculate mean averageresults2 Standard deviation and variance It is ameasure of testing precision Can be used toevaluate precision at various points in a processor to evaluate the precision between two differentmethods of the experiment3 Q test for rejecting data It is used to checkoutliers in data ie to check unusual deviation ina data set to see if it can be statistically rejected

4 Confidence limits It helps in finding theprobability of the true value being within acalculable range It makes use of multiplyingstandard deviation with studentrsquos t-factor thatdetermines the confidence interval of theobservation at the stated confidence level5 t F Chi-square and other tests Helps incomparing the results of two data sets For egside effects of different medication in the samepopulation6 Correlation Helps to detect the relationbetween two attributes of a data for eg howthe effect of a medicine increases or decreasesdue to the change in dosage how increase ordecrease in temperature affects the stability ofcertain medication

Clinical Trials

Clinical trials are research studies that evaluatenew ways to improve treatments and quality oflife for people with disease and in presentscenario global pandemic COVID-19 Resultsfrom Clinical trials help develop

1 New drugsvaccines 2 New diagnostic tools 3 New clinical procedures

Participants volunteer for clinical trials

(28)

In this method of stratified random sampling isused to divide the volunteers into different stratabased on shared attributes or characteristicssuch as gender medical conditions and otherspecifics These stratarsquos are used in differentphases of clinical trials

Clinical trials have 4 phases

Before trial begins volunteers need tounderstand the potential benefits and potentialrisks before participating in clinical trials thatrsquoswhy pre-clinical phase is conducted to test thenew treatment on animals and healthyvolunteers This part comes under descriptivestatistics where we are using the observed(benefits and risks) for further research Phase 1- In this new treatment is tested for thefirst time to know how treatment affects thebody to determine a safe dose range forvaccine and their side effects It involvesrelatively 20-80 volunteers Stats approach-Association analysis is performed to capture thecorrelations between drug therapeuticindications and side-effects In order to achievethis goal we adopted Fishers exact test whichis a widely used approach for measuring thesignificance of the association between twonominal variables For example to test thesignificance of the association between drugtherapeutic indications A and drug side effect B

Phase 2- The study involves how well a newtreatment or combination of treatment goes wellwith certain types of patients It involves up to300 patient volunteers For example out oftotal cancer patients half of the patients areselected randomly and are given cancertreatment along with new vaccine and other halfare given cancer treatment along with standardtreatment of corona virus Now side effects inboth the cases are noted Aim is to determinewhich combination of treatment will have lessside effects Chi- square test is used tocompare the side effects in both the cases Phase 3- In this phase effectiveness of addinga new treatment to the standard treatment isstudied 100-1000 volunteers participate in thisphase Stats approach- Participants arerandomly split into two groups 1st group(treatment group) receives the standardtreatment + new vaccine and 2nd group (controlgroup) receives standard treatment + placebo(a treatment that looks identical to the newtreatment but contains no active ingredient) Inthis phase mean time taken to develop antibodies in both the groups are compared usingZ-test (Test of significance for difference inmeans)

Phase 4- In this phase no volunteers areinvolved researchersrsquo monitor drug safety andeffectiveness It involves optimal usage

A registered clinical psychologist in Honk Kongnamed Zanonia Chiu said - ldquoGoing to school hadbeen a struggle for some children (withdepression) prior to the pandemic but at leastthey had school routines to stick with Now thatschools are closed some lock themselves upinside their rooms for weeks refusing to takeshowers eat or leave their beds For somechildren with depression there will beconsiderable difficulties adjusting back to normallife when college resumesrdquo and according to anonline survey conducted with the study periodfrom April 2020 to May 2020 - Total 531372 and 243 had symptoms of depressionanxiety and stress respectively with varyingseverities (N=727)The conclusion of the surveyindicated that COVID-19 is building psychologicaldistress among vulnerable college students asthey are forced to stay home along withworsening financial situations lifestyle changesfamily situations and time spent on variousactivities

lsquoOnline classrsquo is a term which most of us werenrsquotfamiliar with Before this pandemic we neverthought of getting education at home Covid hasaffected all of our lives In past pursuingeducation meant going to the schoolcollege Butnow the whole scenario has changed Childrenare studying and attending classes from homeJust like there are two sides of a coin onlineclasses also have some advantages anddisadvantages

Starting from the advantages it saves time forboth students and teachers as they donrsquot haveto travel All they have to do is to join throughtheir mobiles or laptops Secondly studentsdonrsquot have to necessarily buy books from theshops like they had to do in offline classesbecause they are given pdfs from which they canstudy Therefore it saves money Third it can beattended from anywhere in the world Unlike inthe offline classes where we had to gather at aparticular place Fourth computer basedpractical can be easily understood as studentscan share their screen with teachers Also it iseasy for teachers to explain a topic with the helpof pictures or animations which can be easilyfound on the internet

Last but not the least Parents can keep an eyeon their children whether they are studyingproperly or not

Apart from advantages it has somedisadvantages too First sitting beside thecomputer or mobile for hours affects the eyesightof both students and teachers Doctors arereporting many cases of eyestrain amongchildren since the online classes have startedSecondly students are becoming lazy as theydonrsquot have to go out of their home Like theproverb lsquoAll work and no play makes Jack a dullboyrsquo is really happening Third students canbunk in the online classes easily As they haveno fear of punishment they learned to disobeyand disrespect teachers Fourth students havebeen given lots of assignments as a result ofwhich most students are copying othersassignments and are not learning anything newFifth it is very difficult to communicate asteachers cannot give attention to each studentLastly it can be concluded that no matter howthe classes are being held a student must bededicated and sincere towards their studiesAfter all onersquos future depends on what they do intheir present

An actuary is a business executive professionally trained in the mathematical sciences Actuariesspecialize in the evaluation of financial riskmdashmost often in the context of life health and casualtyinsurance where they design analyse and refine varied programs to meet the insurance needs ofsociety A growing number of actuaries work in the areas of assetliability management and risk managementSome of these actuaries are employed by investment and consulting firms others are employed byinsurance companies

Actuaries have been called financial architects and social mathematicians because their combinedanalytical and business skills help solve a growing variety of financial and social problems Theactuarial profession is a demanding yet rewarding career choice

In a world bombarded with numerical information informed decisions rely on the ability to separatefact from fiction by applying valid statistical analyses and visualizations Statisticians can providecrucial guidance in determining what information is reliable and which predictions may be trustedThey often help search for clues to the solution of a scientific mystery and sometimes keepinvestigators from being misled by false impressions

Thousands of statisticians work in medicine law agriculture public policy marketing manufacturingengineering and other fields in the social and natural sciences The diversity of applications is anexciting aspect of the field and is one more reason why the demand for well-trained statisticianscontinues to be strong

Contributed by Dr Meenu Goel

The curtain lifts on Bryant Elementary Schools Spring Recorder Recital Ninety third-graders fumble with their instruments take a breath

and blow Their parents braced breathe too

as Hot Crossed Buns emerges a little scattershot -- the Normal Distribution brought to life

By Go Tell Aunt Rhodie the audience

is moved by their sheer pretty-goodness though one kid knocks her music to the floor

and another squeaks to demonstrate

the tail two standard deviations below the mean The curve implies

that somewhere on stage another kid

just played a note so sweet he might shatter Mrs Wedermeyers glasses And if

there are a mother and father who think

that child is theirs may they be forgiven even if the child shining in their eyes

is moving his fingers slightly out of rhythm

even if hes never led the bell curve in his life In consecutive measures of almost unison

its easy to believe these children are musicians

Their parents do so stirred by Ode to Joy they rise to their feet with the final phrase

clapping from the darkened auditorium

at once as one heroically like the parents theyve meant to be

EK NAYA SAFAR

Mubarak ho apko zindgi ka naya safar

Naya hai sheher nai hai dagar

Chut gaye kuch rishte purane

But donrsquot worry yaar mil jayenge naye diwane

Kuch tum jaise khuch tum se alag

So just smile and start a new life

Dosti yaari ko zara side mai rakh ke

Edhar gaur famiye janab

Course toh tumne acha chuna hai

Kuch socha hai ya ese hi liya hai

College mai admission jab hota hai

Toh andar khushi ke fuvare futne lagte hai

Lekin syllabus o dekh kar yeh bhi dagmagane lagte hai

Mana CP paas hai vahi maat ghumte rehna

Varna paper mai cafeacute ki menu sheet hi likhte rehna

Donrsquot take a chill pill coz yaha ki teachers hai thori strict

Just because they want you to be the best

Ab kya kare college ka har din mamuli nahi hota

Aur 9 se 4 sirf parai nahi hoti

Gumo firo esh karo but parna na bhulo

Mana es saal kuch zyada hi speed breakers hai

But the best part is hum sab bhi toh sath hai

PONDERINGAll of humanity is but a set of numbers You and I

are nothing more than a statisticJust think about any decision you had to take

recently No matter your choice you might findyourself ending up only as an infinitesimal

decimal in the final percentage of a statisticianrsquosdiscourse Let me give you an example pertinent

to the world we live in today Say yoursquore arepublican and have to decide whether to wear a

mask or not Naturally your political instinctmight warn you against it However you might

still be inclined to wear one because yoursquoregenuinely scared about what the ldquoliberalsrdquo have

to say about the SARS-COV-2 Now now letrsquos notgo off-topic here I know you might be wondering

what yoursquod do if you were in a Republicanrsquos shoesBut thatrsquos not the point

In the end it seldom matters whether you are arepublican or a liberal especially in situations

like these What matters in the end is if you didgo out without wearing that infuriating

smothering mask And if you contracted thewretched virus because of it If yes hard luck

Yoursquore nothing more than one of the 841 millionpeople who have it Thatrsquos all that people aroundthe world will see Not your gender not your ageand certainly not your political belief Of course

there will be studies about the correlation ofthese factors with the incidence rate of the

infections but thatrsquos another story altogether andnot one possibly as broad as the one we talk

aboutMoreover the correlation must not be

confused with causation Now perhaps thatrsquosa story for another day But think about it thisway whether you go to college or drop out of

high school whether you choose to live ordecide to die no matter the decision no

matter your inclination or choice whetheryou like it or not you will be nothing more

than a statisticIt might sound a bit gloomy to be honestWhen I first thought about it I felt almostinsignificant Like a tiny speck of dust in a

galaxy of stars Alas isnrsquot that all that we arethough

A pale blue dot in an ocean of stars Ourplanet one among millions or perhaps

billions of others All 78 billion of us fightingfor a place in the world knowing full well we

canrsquot all possibly have it It might makeanyone feel overwhelmed but therersquos

something about that that is so challenging itis almost inspiring We all know statistics andwe all know life But the true beauty of life lies

in the ability to defy statistics Only onequestion remains are you up for the

challenge

Donrsquot wish to ldquomake itrdquo in a dying world Donrsquot wish for either a boy or a girl

Donrsquot predict vivid sunshine or rain Donrsquot bother to cry or complain

Statistically speaking it may all be in vain If you didnrsquot make it the first time why try

again

And if you donrsquot buy wish try andpredict

Why also bother living the life you claim tohave lived

It always seems impossible until it is done

If it makes you happyit doesnt have to make sense to others

When you cant find the sunshinebe the sunshine

Either you run the day or let the day run you

When you focus on the goodthe good gets better

It takes the same energy to worry as it doesto be positive so use your energy to thinkpositive and positive things will happen

The one thing that doesnt abide by majority rule is a persons conscience

Make happiness a priority and be gentle with yourself in the process

College the best start to unfold lifes beauty

Goodbye to the mistakes weve made remember the laughs weve shared

Will never forget these years

People are capable at anytime in their lives of doing what they dream of

May every sunrise bring you hopeMay every sunset bring you peace

If you dont believe in yourself thenno one is going to believe in you So

Believe in Yourself

Be who you are and say what you feelbecause those who mind donrsquot matter and

those who matter donrsquot mind

Success is liking yourself liking what you do and liking how you do it

Happiness is a by-product of an effort to make someone else happy

If you are not willing to risk the unusual you will have to settle for the ordinary

Always keep it clean simple and precise

Hustle until you no longer have to introduce yourself

Dream it Wish it Do it

There are no limits to what you can accomplish except the limits you place

on your own thinking

The greatness of humanity is not in being human but in being humane

You will be exactly as happy as you decide

One thing to learn from the sun is thatwhenever a cloud tries to hinder itslight it finds its own path to shine

Excellence is not achieved - it is aspired to and trekked towards The tougher the trek

the better the views

I think the day we figure out everythingabout our lives is the day we die

Finding your magic can be scary but owning it will be EUPHORIA

An approximate answer to the right problem is worth a good deal more than

an exact answer to an approximate problem

The aim is to live happily heal throughevery situation and learn everything new

Croxton and Cowden defines statistics as the science of collection presentation analysis andinterpretation of numerical data Progressively the Statistics subject come to be more and more popular and its application hasbecome more extensive Now almost there is no field of human activity where statistics are not usedNowadays it is used by economists businessmen scientists administrators etc To be more preciseabout the importance of statistics in our life lets discuss some astonishing reasons that we haveoverheard on several occasions

1 Everyone lookout for weather forecasting Have you ever thought how do you acquire thatinformation There are some computer models constructed on the basis of statistical conceptsThese computer models relate past weather with the present weather and predict future weather

2 Statistics frequently used by the researchers They use their statistical skills to collect therelevant data Otherwise it results in a loss of money time and data

3 What do you understand by insurance Everyone has some kind of insurance whether it ismedical home or any other insurance Several businesses use statistical models based on anindividual application to calculate the risk of giving insurance Life tables are indispensable for thesolution of all questions relating to the duration of human life 4 Statistic plays significant role in financial market Statistics are the key of how traders andbusinessmen invest and make money

5 Statistics play a big role in the medical field For testing the efficacy of a manufacturing druginjection or medicine for controlling curing specific ailments most of the applications of medicalfields lies in using the tests of significance (more precisely studentrsquos t-test) The testing of theeffectiveness of a medicine by the manufacturing concern is a must since only after theeffectiveness of the medicine is proven by the sound statistical techniques that it will venture tomanufacture it on a large scale and bring it out in the market By statistical techniques (t and Fsignificance tests) comparative study of different medicines can also be made

(18)

6 In industry Statistical techniques are used in quality testing Companies manufacture manyproducts on a daily basis and every company make sure that they sell the best quality items Butcompanies cannot test all the products so they use sampling techniques which are a very importantaspect of statistical theory 7 We make variety of predictions in daily life For examples we keep the alarm for the morningwhen we donrsquot know that we will be alive in the morning or not Here we use statistics basics to makepredictions

8 Using statistics concepts doctors predict disease Suppose a survey shows that 75-80people have cancer and not able to find the reason Where the statistics is involved there you canhave a better idea on how the cancer may affect your body

9 News reporter makes a prediction of winner for elections based on political campaigns Herestatistics play a very important role to find out who will form the government 10 Statistics data allow us to collect the information around the world The internet is a devisewhich help us to collect the information The fundamental behind the internet is based on statisticsand mathematics concepts 11 Not only in peace times but in war times also statistics can be used very effectively It ispractically not possible to face a war without the factual data concerning the military strength of theenemy in terms of manpower military tanks war aeroplanes missiles ammunition etc

BIOSTATISTICS is the application of statisticalmethods in studies in biology andencompasses the design of experiments thecollection of data from them and the analysisand interpretation of data The data comes froma wide range of sources including genomicstudies experiments with cells and organismsand clinical trials Biostatistics is the applicationof statistical principles to questions andproblems in medicine public health or biologyOne can imagine that it might be of interest tocharacterize a given population with respect tothe proportion who has asthma and it wouldalso be important to estimate the magnitude ofthese problems over time or perhaps in differentlocations Statistics is a science of compilingclassifying and tabulating numerical data andexpressing the results in a mathematical andgraphical form whereas biostatistics is thebranch of statistics concerned with themathematical facts and data related to biologicalevents

Francis Galton created the statistical conceptcorrelation Sir Galton for the first time usedstatistical tools to study differences amonghuman population He also invented the use ofquestionnaires surveys for collecting data onhuman communities Biostatistics are the eventand application of statistical method to a goodrange of topic in biology It encompasses theplanning of biological experiments the gatheringand analysis of knowledge from thoseexperiments and therefore the interpretation ofthe results Biostatistics is sometimesdistinguished from the field of biometry basedupon whether applications are in the healthsciences (bio statistics) or in broader biology(biometry example agriculture ecology wildlifebiology) More and more things are nowmeasured quantitatively in medicine and publichealth There is a great deal of inherent variationin most biological processes Public health andmedicine are becoming increasingly quantitative

(20)

It is used to test whether the differencebetween two populations is real or by chanceoccurrence to study the correlation betweenattributes in the same population and toevaluate the achievements of public healthprograms Biostatistics has applications in allthe branches of life sciences such as formapping chromosomes for studying thebehavior of genes in a population and forconduction of drug treatment trails etcBiostatistics deals with data arising frombiomedical research It remains a very activeresearch area with complicated time-to-eventdata and missing data emerging in applicationareas including medicine geneticsneuroscience and engineering Recentadvances in biomedical research have creatednew challenges and opportunities forstatisticians and data scientists For examplebig data analysis precision medicine artificialintelligence causal inference and other newresearch fields have inspired data scientists todevelop modern statistical methods andinnovative inference procedures

As technology progresses the physicianencounters more and more quantitative ratherthan descriptive information In one sensestatistics is the language of assembling andhandling quantitative material Even if onersquosconcern is only with the results of other peoplersquosmanipulation and assemblage of data it isimportant to achieve some understanding of thislanguage in order to interpret their resultsproperly Statistics pervades the medicalliterature As a consequence of the increasinglyquantitative nature of public health and medicineand its reliance on statistical methodology themedical literature is replete with reports in whichstatistical techniques are used extensivelyBiostatistics is used to determine how diseasesdevelop progress and spread

For example biostatisticians use statistics topredict the behavior of an illness like flu It is usedto help predict the mortality rate the symptomsand even the time of year people might get it

Over 50 years ago there was a subject whichwas unnoticed and mainly focused on the studyand analysis of data Statisticians urgedacademic statistics to transcend its boundariesbeyond the realm of theoretical statistics Morestress was laid on data presentation Datascience is a discipline which is guided bycomputing informatics operation researchmathematics and statistics

Statistics is treated as the most important tool insorting and analysing data It is beneficial ingiving a deeper vision of the data Statisticswidely depends upon experiments and surveysWith the help of descriptive statisticscalculations like mean median etc can bedone on the data On the other hand inferentialstatistics helps in drawing inferences andconclusions from the population Both domainsof statistics play a very important role in DataScience In order to get a structured data andmaking predictions statistical methods and toolsare very essential They are able to carry outmany analytical tasks

Statistical Analysis is the study of surveying agiven set of data and observing patterns andtrends It is used in research fields to createstatistical models for performing certainexperiments on a population

The focus is to gather information from thesmallest quantity of data The experimentsinvolve accurate calculations and therefore giverespective results Statistics forms the base ofData Science It requires optimization of hugedatabases which is achieved with the help ofdifferent statistical tools In todayrsquos data drivenworld Data Science is turning out to be one ofthe most demanded professions Almost all firmsand companies are in search of data scientistsas the data keeps on piling up and the need ofinterpreting analysing and cleaning it is risingThe ultimate aim of Statistics and Data Scienceis to extricate cognizance from large amounts ofdata

Whenever the word lsquobusinessrsquo is heard lsquosalesrsquo isthe word which comes to our mind next and whatexactly assists sales is STATISTICS Donrsquotbelieve me but I am sure after reading the articleyou would all agree to my point too So what doesa businessman do He manufactures and sellsthe goods produced to the public but both ofthese basic functions of the businessman cannotbe transcended without the help of statistics toolssuch as survey statistics driven softwares tocollect and analyse the demand of the customerand to what extent ie the quantity in which it isrequired in order to maximize their total revenueThe graphs and the tables formed ie the statshelp them to know the exact condition of themarket and its inclination so that they could comeout with offers and discounts in order to attractpublic towards their product maximizing theirsales The businessmen who is believed to bevery quick and accurate in decision making is allassisted by statistics at every point fromanalysing their sales profit margins wages of theemployees the improvements required in theproduct the billing counters are all carriedforward with the help of statistical tools Thefinancial resources required for investing in thebusiness are also arranged according to theassistance given by the data analysts Themarketing and advertisement of the products alsoneeds statistics Now you would be thinking how

amp its regular maintenance is all handled bystatistical applications In order to calculate theaverage mean median loss profit and all theother commerce related terms in businessesdealing with large amount of data is all handledby statisticians Statistics also helps inmaintaining employee performancemanagement A manager collects data aboutemployee productivity such as the number oftasks completed or the number of unitsproduced He or she must analyse data to findways in which an employee should improve toachieve maximum productivity Manycompanies also collect data about employeeengagement and happiness on the job whichcan be tracked to not only keep workersmotivated but ensure they dont leave for otherpositions elsewhere This helps in increasingthe efficiency of the employees and also createsa healthy working environment I have listed lotof points to prove the importance of statistics inbusinesses and hope that you will now agree towhat I mentioned in the beginning of the article

Whenever a method of marketing is thought thepercentage of people to get influenced the agegroup to target the kind of offers to be laid downare all done through statistics You might haveheard that now data is the new oil that means lifeis all surrounded with data and for the data andthe demand for its upkeep and analysis the dataanalysts are required and in big organizationswho actually target all age groups and sell allkinds of products on a large scale have a largedatabase not only of the customers but also oftheir n number of employees So an organizationis incomplete without data and where there isdata there is statistics In fact I would say thatan organization isnrsquot an organization if they donot have data and its proper upkeep in such acase the company will surely drain out so thisactually proves how important statistics hasbecome in the business point of view Thebanking sector canrsquot function without statisticsand this banking business forms the backbone ofthe country since all the customers of the bankhave loads of data for a particular bank account

Statistics help in

Measuring the stability of drugs-II) Production of drugs according to demandsIII) Effectiveness of drugsIV) Quality control of drugs V) Marketing of drugs VI) Testing the side effects of the drug with thehelp of data VII) Going through the procedure of approvaland public distribution of drugs

Statistics in developing a drug

A lot of statistics tools are used duringproduction clinical trials and marketing andpublic distribution of drugs-1 Average (mean median and mode) Usedduring experiments like stability testingcombination of chemicals and checking acidity orbasicity of solutions to calculate mean averageresults2 Standard deviation and variance It is ameasure of testing precision Can be used toevaluate precision at various points in a processor to evaluate the precision between two differentmethods of the experiment3 Q test for rejecting data It is used to checkoutliers in data ie to check unusual deviation ina data set to see if it can be statistically rejected

4 Confidence limits It helps in finding theprobability of the true value being within acalculable range It makes use of multiplyingstandard deviation with studentrsquos t-factor thatdetermines the confidence interval of theobservation at the stated confidence level5 t F Chi-square and other tests Helps incomparing the results of two data sets For egside effects of different medication in the samepopulation6 Correlation Helps to detect the relationbetween two attributes of a data for eg howthe effect of a medicine increases or decreasesdue to the change in dosage how increase ordecrease in temperature affects the stability ofcertain medication

Clinical Trials

Clinical trials are research studies that evaluatenew ways to improve treatments and quality oflife for people with disease and in presentscenario global pandemic COVID-19 Resultsfrom Clinical trials help develop

1 New drugsvaccines 2 New diagnostic tools 3 New clinical procedures

Participants volunteer for clinical trials

(28)

In this method of stratified random sampling isused to divide the volunteers into different stratabased on shared attributes or characteristicssuch as gender medical conditions and otherspecifics These stratarsquos are used in differentphases of clinical trials

Clinical trials have 4 phases

Before trial begins volunteers need tounderstand the potential benefits and potentialrisks before participating in clinical trials thatrsquoswhy pre-clinical phase is conducted to test thenew treatment on animals and healthyvolunteers This part comes under descriptivestatistics where we are using the observed(benefits and risks) for further research Phase 1- In this new treatment is tested for thefirst time to know how treatment affects thebody to determine a safe dose range forvaccine and their side effects It involvesrelatively 20-80 volunteers Stats approach-Association analysis is performed to capture thecorrelations between drug therapeuticindications and side-effects In order to achievethis goal we adopted Fishers exact test whichis a widely used approach for measuring thesignificance of the association between twonominal variables For example to test thesignificance of the association between drugtherapeutic indications A and drug side effect B

Phase 2- The study involves how well a newtreatment or combination of treatment goes wellwith certain types of patients It involves up to300 patient volunteers For example out oftotal cancer patients half of the patients areselected randomly and are given cancertreatment along with new vaccine and other halfare given cancer treatment along with standardtreatment of corona virus Now side effects inboth the cases are noted Aim is to determinewhich combination of treatment will have lessside effects Chi- square test is used tocompare the side effects in both the cases Phase 3- In this phase effectiveness of addinga new treatment to the standard treatment isstudied 100-1000 volunteers participate in thisphase Stats approach- Participants arerandomly split into two groups 1st group(treatment group) receives the standardtreatment + new vaccine and 2nd group (controlgroup) receives standard treatment + placebo(a treatment that looks identical to the newtreatment but contains no active ingredient) Inthis phase mean time taken to develop antibodies in both the groups are compared usingZ-test (Test of significance for difference inmeans)

Phase 4- In this phase no volunteers areinvolved researchersrsquo monitor drug safety andeffectiveness It involves optimal usage

ldquoCollege life is known as one of the most memorable years of astudentrsquos life exposing them to new experiences like meeting new

people learning new things exploring places etcrdquo

A registered clinical psychologist in Honk Kongnamed Zanonia Chiu said - ldquoGoing to school hadbeen a struggle for some children (withdepression) prior to the pandemic but at leastthey had school routines to stick with Now thatschools are closed some lock themselves upinside their rooms for weeks refusing to takeshowers eat or leave their beds For somechildren with depression there will beconsiderable difficulties adjusting back to normallife when college resumesrdquo and according to anonline survey conducted with the study periodfrom April 2020 to May 2020 - Total 531372 and 243 had symptoms of depressionanxiety and stress respectively with varyingseverities (N=727)The conclusion of the surveyindicated that COVID-19 is building psychologicaldistress among vulnerable college students asthey are forced to stay home along withworsening financial situations lifestyle changesfamily situations and time spent on variousactivities

Sounds so interesting and happening right Itis true indeed but along with stressful timeaside Along with the perks of enjoyingfreedom more than ever there comesacademic pressure tasks of separation fromfamilies career building futureresponsibilities etc Boarding on with thecollege life is a stressful time for manystudents thereby affecting their mental healthMental health problems are very commonamong college students and have been anincreasing concern However the COVID-19pandemic situation has brought this vulnerablepopulation into renewed focus Following thepandemic schools colleges offices andalmost every place that involved humaninteraction was shut It is important to note thatcollegeschool or even a normal routine areimportant coping mechanisms for youngpeople with mental health issues and wheneverything is shut down they lose an anchor inlife and their symptoms could relapse

Mental health among students is a big concernhowever ldquoUNTREATEDrdquo mental illnesses are amuch bigger and exponentially growingconcern Reaching out is an important step formental health issues to be addressed andtreated but reach out to who This is the pointwhere our institution should take over Collegesplay a big role in this stage Colleges doaddress this issue through means of orientationsessions and workshops but there is still a needto address mental health more directly Themethods to address mental health issuesshould be accessible feasible and affordablefor the students For example at NorthwesternUniversity student feedback led orientationenabled organizers to shift their focus fromexpert speakers to student testimonials Meansto address the issue vary from traditionalpresentations and panel discussions to roleplays small group discussions etc Herestudents learn how to recognize mental illnesssymptoms where to find resources andsupport and how to talk to friends who mightbe struggling

The findings of this study highlighted theurgent need to develop interventions andpreventive strategies to address the mentalhealth of college students Another InterviewSurvey study conducted by the Journal ofMedical Internet Research highlighted that of195 students 138 (71) indicated increasedstress and anxiety due to the COVID-19outbreak Multiple stressors were identified thatcontributed to the increased levels of stressanxiety and depressive thoughts amongstudents These included fear and worry abouttheir own health and of their loved ones(177195 91 reported negative impacts ofthe pandemic) difficulty in concentrating(173195 89) disruptions to sleepingpatterns (168195 86) decreased socialinteractions due to physical distancing(167195 86) and increased concerns onacademic performance (159195 82) Tocope with stress and anxiety participants havesought support from others and helpedthemselves by adopting either negative orpositive coping mechanisms It is important toknow that creating awareness about any issueis never enough action is what is neededTaking leave from workschool because of a fluor a fracture is acceptable and might even helpin the process of cure and healing howevertaking time off because of stress from a mentalillness such as anxiety or depressionunfortunately is not

lsquoOnline classrsquo is a term which most of us werenrsquotfamiliar with Before this pandemic we neverthought of getting education at home Covid hasaffected all of our lives In past pursuingeducation meant going to the schoolcollege Butnow the whole scenario has changed Childrenare studying and attending classes from homeJust like there are two sides of a coin onlineclasses also have some advantages anddisadvantages

Starting from the advantages it saves time forboth students and teachers as they donrsquot haveto travel All they have to do is to join throughtheir mobiles or laptops Secondly studentsdonrsquot have to necessarily buy books from theshops like they had to do in offline classesbecause they are given pdfs from which they canstudy Therefore it saves money Third it can beattended from anywhere in the world Unlike inthe offline classes where we had to gather at aparticular place Fourth computer basedpractical can be easily understood as studentscan share their screen with teachers Also it iseasy for teachers to explain a topic with the helpof pictures or animations which can be easilyfound on the internet

Last but not the least Parents can keep an eyeon their children whether they are studyingproperly or not

Apart from advantages it has somedisadvantages too First sitting beside thecomputer or mobile for hours affects the eyesightof both students and teachers Doctors arereporting many cases of eyestrain amongchildren since the online classes have startedSecondly students are becoming lazy as theydonrsquot have to go out of their home Like theproverb lsquoAll work and no play makes Jack a dullboyrsquo is really happening Third students canbunk in the online classes easily As they haveno fear of punishment they learned to disobeyand disrespect teachers Fourth students havebeen given lots of assignments as a result ofwhich most students are copying othersassignments and are not learning anything newFifth it is very difficult to communicate asteachers cannot give attention to each studentLastly it can be concluded that no matter howthe classes are being held a student must bededicated and sincere towards their studiesAfter all onersquos future depends on what they do intheir present

An actuary is a business executive professionally trained in the mathematical sciences Actuariesspecialize in the evaluation of financial riskmdashmost often in the context of life health and casualtyinsurance where they design analyse and refine varied programs to meet the insurance needs ofsociety A growing number of actuaries work in the areas of assetliability management and risk managementSome of these actuaries are employed by investment and consulting firms others are employed byinsurance companies

Actuaries have been called financial architects and social mathematicians because their combinedanalytical and business skills help solve a growing variety of financial and social problems Theactuarial profession is a demanding yet rewarding career choice

In a world bombarded with numerical information informed decisions rely on the ability to separatefact from fiction by applying valid statistical analyses and visualizations Statisticians can providecrucial guidance in determining what information is reliable and which predictions may be trustedThey often help search for clues to the solution of a scientific mystery and sometimes keepinvestigators from being misled by false impressions

Thousands of statisticians work in medicine law agriculture public policy marketing manufacturingengineering and other fields in the social and natural sciences The diversity of applications is anexciting aspect of the field and is one more reason why the demand for well-trained statisticianscontinues to be strong

Poetry

Contributed by Dr Komal Goel

by Anubis the Philosomancer

(41)

Contributed by Dr Meenu Goel

The curtain lifts on Bryant Elementary Schools Spring Recorder Recital Ninety third-graders fumble with their instruments take a breath

and blow Their parents braced breathe too

as Hot Crossed Buns emerges a little scattershot -- the Normal Distribution brought to life

By Go Tell Aunt Rhodie the audience

is moved by their sheer pretty-goodness though one kid knocks her music to the floor

and another squeaks to demonstrate

the tail two standard deviations below the mean The curve implies

that somewhere on stage another kid

just played a note so sweet he might shatter Mrs Wedermeyers glasses And if

there are a mother and father who think

that child is theirs may they be forgiven even if the child shining in their eyes

is moving his fingers slightly out of rhythm

even if hes never led the bell curve in his life In consecutive measures of almost unison

its easy to believe these children are musicians

Their parents do so stirred by Ode to Joy they rise to their feet with the final phrase

clapping from the darkened auditorium

at once as one heroically like the parents theyve meant to be

EK NAYA SAFAR

Mubarak ho apko zindgi ka naya safar

Naya hai sheher nai hai dagar

Chut gaye kuch rishte purane

But donrsquot worry yaar mil jayenge naye diwane

Kuch tum jaise khuch tum se alag

So just smile and start a new life

Dosti yaari ko zara side mai rakh ke

Edhar gaur famiye janab

Course toh tumne acha chuna hai

Kuch socha hai ya ese hi liya hai

College mai admission jab hota hai

Toh andar khushi ke fuvare futne lagte hai

Lekin syllabus o dekh kar yeh bhi dagmagane lagte hai

Mana CP paas hai vahi maat ghumte rehna

Varna paper mai cafeacute ki menu sheet hi likhte rehna

Donrsquot take a chill pill coz yaha ki teachers hai thori strict

Just because they want you to be the best

Ab kya kare college ka har din mamuli nahi hota

Aur 9 se 4 sirf parai nahi hoti

Gumo firo esh karo but parna na bhulo

Mana es saal kuch zyada hi speed breakers hai

But the best part is hum sab bhi toh sath hai

PONDERINGAll of humanity is but a set of numbers You and I

are nothing more than a statisticJust think about any decision you had to take

recently No matter your choice you might findyourself ending up only as an infinitesimal

decimal in the final percentage of a statisticianrsquosdiscourse Let me give you an example pertinent

to the world we live in today Say yoursquore arepublican and have to decide whether to wear a

mask or not Naturally your political instinctmight warn you against it However you might

still be inclined to wear one because yoursquoregenuinely scared about what the ldquoliberalsrdquo have

to say about the SARS-COV-2 Now now letrsquos notgo off-topic here I know you might be wondering

what yoursquod do if you were in a Republicanrsquos shoesBut thatrsquos not the point

In the end it seldom matters whether you are arepublican or a liberal especially in situations

like these What matters in the end is if you didgo out without wearing that infuriating

smothering mask And if you contracted thewretched virus because of it If yes hard luck

Yoursquore nothing more than one of the 841 millionpeople who have it Thatrsquos all that people aroundthe world will see Not your gender not your ageand certainly not your political belief Of course

there will be studies about the correlation ofthese factors with the incidence rate of the

infections but thatrsquos another story altogether andnot one possibly as broad as the one we talk

aboutMoreover the correlation must not be

confused with causation Now perhaps thatrsquosa story for another day But think about it thisway whether you go to college or drop out of

high school whether you choose to live ordecide to die no matter the decision no

matter your inclination or choice whetheryou like it or not you will be nothing more

than a statisticIt might sound a bit gloomy to be honestWhen I first thought about it I felt almostinsignificant Like a tiny speck of dust in a

galaxy of stars Alas isnrsquot that all that we arethough

A pale blue dot in an ocean of stars Ourplanet one among millions or perhaps

billions of others All 78 billion of us fightingfor a place in the world knowing full well we

canrsquot all possibly have it It might makeanyone feel overwhelmed but therersquos

something about that that is so challenging itis almost inspiring We all know statistics andwe all know life But the true beauty of life lies

in the ability to defy statistics Only onequestion remains are you up for the

challenge

It wonrsquot be any exaggeration If itrsquos said that tools of statistician are used in almost all fields ofcalculation

Be it research finance sports marketing sales health care or population countingIt is a crucial process behind How we make discoveries in science

It always seems impossible until it is done

If it makes you happyit doesnt have to make sense to others

When you cant find the sunshinebe the sunshine

Either you run the day or let the day run you

When you focus on the goodthe good gets better

It takes the same energy to worry as it doesto be positive so use your energy to thinkpositive and positive things will happen

The one thing that doesnt abide by majority rule is a persons conscience

Make happiness a priority and be gentle with yourself in the process

College the best start to unfold lifes beauty

Goodbye to the mistakes weve made remember the laughs weve shared

Will never forget these years

Believe in Yourself

Be who you are and say what you feelbecause those who mind donrsquot matter and

those who matter donrsquot mind

Success is liking yourself liking what you do and liking how you do it

Happiness is a by-product of an effort to make someone else happy

If you are not willing to risk the unusual you will have to settle for the ordinary

Always keep it clean simple and precise

Hustle until you no longer have to introduce yourself

Croxton and Cowden defines statistics as the science of collection presentation analysis andinterpretation of numerical data Progressively the Statistics subject come to be more and more popular and its application hasbecome more extensive Now almost there is no field of human activity where statistics are not usedNowadays it is used by economists businessmen scientists administrators etc To be more preciseabout the importance of statistics in our life lets discuss some astonishing reasons that we haveoverheard on several occasions

1 Everyone lookout for weather forecasting Have you ever thought how do you acquire thatinformation There are some computer models constructed on the basis of statistical conceptsThese computer models relate past weather with the present weather and predict future weather

2 Statistics frequently used by the researchers They use their statistical skills to collect therelevant data Otherwise it results in a loss of money time and data

3 What do you understand by insurance Everyone has some kind of insurance whether it ismedical home or any other insurance Several businesses use statistical models based on anindividual application to calculate the risk of giving insurance Life tables are indispensable for thesolution of all questions relating to the duration of human life 4 Statistic plays significant role in financial market Statistics are the key of how traders andbusinessmen invest and make money

5 Statistics play a big role in the medical field For testing the efficacy of a manufacturing druginjection or medicine for controlling curing specific ailments most of the applications of medicalfields lies in using the tests of significance (more precisely studentrsquos t-test) The testing of theeffectiveness of a medicine by the manufacturing concern is a must since only after theeffectiveness of the medicine is proven by the sound statistical techniques that it will venture tomanufacture it on a large scale and bring it out in the market By statistical techniques (t and Fsignificance tests) comparative study of different medicines can also be made

(18)

6 In industry Statistical techniques are used in quality testing Companies manufacture manyproducts on a daily basis and every company make sure that they sell the best quality items Butcompanies cannot test all the products so they use sampling techniques which are a very importantaspect of statistical theory 7 We make variety of predictions in daily life For examples we keep the alarm for the morningwhen we donrsquot know that we will be alive in the morning or not Here we use statistics basics to makepredictions

8 Using statistics concepts doctors predict disease Suppose a survey shows that 75-80people have cancer and not able to find the reason Where the statistics is involved there you canhave a better idea on how the cancer may affect your body

9 News reporter makes a prediction of winner for elections based on political campaigns Herestatistics play a very important role to find out who will form the government 10 Statistics data allow us to collect the information around the world The internet is a devisewhich help us to collect the information The fundamental behind the internet is based on statisticsand mathematics concepts 11 Not only in peace times but in war times also statistics can be used very effectively It ispractically not possible to face a war without the factual data concerning the military strength of theenemy in terms of manpower military tanks war aeroplanes missiles ammunition etc

BIOSTATISTICS is the application of statisticalmethods in studies in biology andencompasses the design of experiments thecollection of data from them and the analysisand interpretation of data The data comes froma wide range of sources including genomicstudies experiments with cells and organismsand clinical trials Biostatistics is the applicationof statistical principles to questions andproblems in medicine public health or biologyOne can imagine that it might be of interest tocharacterize a given population with respect tothe proportion who has asthma and it wouldalso be important to estimate the magnitude ofthese problems over time or perhaps in differentlocations Statistics is a science of compilingclassifying and tabulating numerical data andexpressing the results in a mathematical andgraphical form whereas biostatistics is thebranch of statistics concerned with themathematical facts and data related to biologicalevents

Francis Galton created the statistical conceptcorrelation Sir Galton for the first time usedstatistical tools to study differences amonghuman population He also invented the use ofquestionnaires surveys for collecting data onhuman communities Biostatistics are the eventand application of statistical method to a goodrange of topic in biology It encompasses theplanning of biological experiments the gatheringand analysis of knowledge from thoseexperiments and therefore the interpretation ofthe results Biostatistics is sometimesdistinguished from the field of biometry basedupon whether applications are in the healthsciences (bio statistics) or in broader biology(biometry example agriculture ecology wildlifebiology) More and more things are nowmeasured quantitatively in medicine and publichealth There is a great deal of inherent variationin most biological processes Public health andmedicine are becoming increasingly quantitative

(20)

It is used to test whether the differencebetween two populations is real or by chanceoccurrence to study the correlation betweenattributes in the same population and toevaluate the achievements of public healthprograms Biostatistics has applications in allthe branches of life sciences such as formapping chromosomes for studying thebehavior of genes in a population and forconduction of drug treatment trails etcBiostatistics deals with data arising frombiomedical research It remains a very activeresearch area with complicated time-to-eventdata and missing data emerging in applicationareas including medicine geneticsneuroscience and engineering Recentadvances in biomedical research have creatednew challenges and opportunities forstatisticians and data scientists For examplebig data analysis precision medicine artificialintelligence causal inference and other newresearch fields have inspired data scientists todevelop modern statistical methods andinnovative inference procedures

As technology progresses the physicianencounters more and more quantitative ratherthan descriptive information In one sensestatistics is the language of assembling andhandling quantitative material Even if onersquosconcern is only with the results of other peoplersquosmanipulation and assemblage of data it isimportant to achieve some understanding of thislanguage in order to interpret their resultsproperly Statistics pervades the medicalliterature As a consequence of the increasinglyquantitative nature of public health and medicineand its reliance on statistical methodology themedical literature is replete with reports in whichstatistical techniques are used extensivelyBiostatistics is used to determine how diseasesdevelop progress and spread

For example biostatisticians use statistics topredict the behavior of an illness like flu It is usedto help predict the mortality rate the symptomsand even the time of year people might get it

Over 50 years ago there was a subject whichwas unnoticed and mainly focused on the studyand analysis of data Statisticians urgedacademic statistics to transcend its boundariesbeyond the realm of theoretical statistics Morestress was laid on data presentation Datascience is a discipline which is guided bycomputing informatics operation researchmathematics and statistics

Statistics is treated as the most important tool insorting and analysing data It is beneficial ingiving a deeper vision of the data Statisticswidely depends upon experiments and surveysWith the help of descriptive statisticscalculations like mean median etc can bedone on the data On the other hand inferentialstatistics helps in drawing inferences andconclusions from the population Both domainsof statistics play a very important role in DataScience In order to get a structured data andmaking predictions statistical methods and toolsare very essential They are able to carry outmany analytical tasks

Statistical Analysis is the study of surveying agiven set of data and observing patterns andtrends It is used in research fields to createstatistical models for performing certainexperiments on a population

The focus is to gather information from thesmallest quantity of data The experimentsinvolve accurate calculations and therefore giverespective results Statistics forms the base ofData Science It requires optimization of hugedatabases which is achieved with the help ofdifferent statistical tools In todayrsquos data drivenworld Data Science is turning out to be one ofthe most demanded professions Almost all firmsand companies are in search of data scientistsas the data keeps on piling up and the need ofinterpreting analysing and cleaning it is risingThe ultimate aim of Statistics and Data Scienceis to extricate cognizance from large amounts ofdata

Whenever the word lsquobusinessrsquo is heard lsquosalesrsquo isthe word which comes to our mind next and whatexactly assists sales is STATISTICS Donrsquotbelieve me but I am sure after reading the articleyou would all agree to my point too So what doesa businessman do He manufactures and sellsthe goods produced to the public but both ofthese basic functions of the businessman cannotbe transcended without the help of statistics toolssuch as survey statistics driven softwares tocollect and analyse the demand of the customerand to what extent ie the quantity in which it isrequired in order to maximize their total revenueThe graphs and the tables formed ie the statshelp them to know the exact condition of themarket and its inclination so that they could comeout with offers and discounts in order to attractpublic towards their product maximizing theirsales The businessmen who is believed to bevery quick and accurate in decision making is allassisted by statistics at every point fromanalysing their sales profit margins wages of theemployees the improvements required in theproduct the billing counters are all carriedforward with the help of statistical tools Thefinancial resources required for investing in thebusiness are also arranged according to theassistance given by the data analysts Themarketing and advertisement of the products alsoneeds statistics Now you would be thinking how

amp its regular maintenance is all handled bystatistical applications In order to calculate theaverage mean median loss profit and all theother commerce related terms in businessesdealing with large amount of data is all handledby statisticians Statistics also helps inmaintaining employee performancemanagement A manager collects data aboutemployee productivity such as the number oftasks completed or the number of unitsproduced He or she must analyse data to findways in which an employee should improve toachieve maximum productivity Manycompanies also collect data about employeeengagement and happiness on the job whichcan be tracked to not only keep workersmotivated but ensure they dont leave for otherpositions elsewhere This helps in increasingthe efficiency of the employees and also createsa healthy working environment I have listed lotof points to prove the importance of statistics inbusinesses and hope that you will now agree towhat I mentioned in the beginning of the article

Whenever a method of marketing is thought thepercentage of people to get influenced the agegroup to target the kind of offers to be laid downare all done through statistics You might haveheard that now data is the new oil that means lifeis all surrounded with data and for the data andthe demand for its upkeep and analysis the dataanalysts are required and in big organizationswho actually target all age groups and sell allkinds of products on a large scale have a largedatabase not only of the customers but also oftheir n number of employees So an organizationis incomplete without data and where there isdata there is statistics In fact I would say thatan organization isnrsquot an organization if they donot have data and its proper upkeep in such acase the company will surely drain out so thisactually proves how important statistics hasbecome in the business point of view Thebanking sector canrsquot function without statisticsand this banking business forms the backbone ofthe country since all the customers of the bankhave loads of data for a particular bank account

The main incoming and outgoing source ofincome in the business of insurance is throughpremiums and claims respectively Manystatistical models are used to model claimsand losses Parameters for these distributionsare estimated using Method of momentMaximum likelihood estimates etc and thenGoodness of fit testis applied to check howwell our distribution fits to the data Timeseries model plays an important role inforecasting future values Statistics is used toanswer the most important questions for theinsurance industry What percentage ofpolicies are expected to payout How muchmoney the company must expect to payout inclaims Different methods of data collectioneither in primary or secondary form are usedto determine the required reserves premiumand future predictions Apart from this manystatistical methods for eg Linear modelmethod which uses regression as the maintool in determining the factors affectingpremiums Loss distribution method in whichhistogram and bar graphs are made tocompare different categories and complexstatistical tools such as Ruin Theory and Run-off triangles are used to develop newproducts absorb and evaluate risk and ruinwhen balancing claims reserves andpremiums Thus statistics plays anirreplaceable role in the life cycle ofinsurance business for both life and non-life insurance

Statistics help in

Measuring the stability of drugs-II) Production of drugs according to demandsIII) Effectiveness of drugsIV) Quality control of drugs V) Marketing of drugs VI) Testing the side effects of the drug with thehelp of data VII) Going through the procedure of approvaland public distribution of drugs

Statistics in developing a drug

A lot of statistics tools are used duringproduction clinical trials and marketing andpublic distribution of drugs-1 Average (mean median and mode) Usedduring experiments like stability testingcombination of chemicals and checking acidity orbasicity of solutions to calculate mean averageresults2 Standard deviation and variance It is ameasure of testing precision Can be used toevaluate precision at various points in a processor to evaluate the precision between two differentmethods of the experiment3 Q test for rejecting data It is used to checkoutliers in data ie to check unusual deviation ina data set to see if it can be statistically rejected

4 Confidence limits It helps in finding theprobability of the true value being within acalculable range It makes use of multiplyingstandard deviation with studentrsquos t-factor thatdetermines the confidence interval of theobservation at the stated confidence level5 t F Chi-square and other tests Helps incomparing the results of two data sets For egside effects of different medication in the samepopulation6 Correlation Helps to detect the relationbetween two attributes of a data for eg howthe effect of a medicine increases or decreasesdue to the change in dosage how increase ordecrease in temperature affects the stability ofcertain medication

Clinical Trials

Clinical trials are research studies that evaluatenew ways to improve treatments and quality oflife for people with disease and in presentscenario global pandemic COVID-19 Resultsfrom Clinical trials help develop

1 New drugsvaccines 2 New diagnostic tools 3 New clinical procedures

Participants volunteer for clinical trials

(28)

In this method of stratified random sampling isused to divide the volunteers into different stratabased on shared attributes or characteristicssuch as gender medical conditions and otherspecifics These stratarsquos are used in differentphases of clinical trials

Clinical trials have 4 phases

Before trial begins volunteers need tounderstand the potential benefits and potentialrisks before participating in clinical trials thatrsquoswhy pre-clinical phase is conducted to test thenew treatment on animals and healthyvolunteers This part comes under descriptivestatistics where we are using the observed(benefits and risks) for further research Phase 1- In this new treatment is tested for thefirst time to know how treatment affects thebody to determine a safe dose range forvaccine and their side effects It involvesrelatively 20-80 volunteers Stats approach-Association analysis is performed to capture thecorrelations between drug therapeuticindications and side-effects In order to achievethis goal we adopted Fishers exact test whichis a widely used approach for measuring thesignificance of the association between twonominal variables For example to test thesignificance of the association between drugtherapeutic indications A and drug side effect B

Phase 2- The study involves how well a newtreatment or combination of treatment goes wellwith certain types of patients It involves up to300 patient volunteers For example out oftotal cancer patients half of the patients areselected randomly and are given cancertreatment along with new vaccine and other halfare given cancer treatment along with standardtreatment of corona virus Now side effects inboth the cases are noted Aim is to determinewhich combination of treatment will have lessside effects Chi- square test is used tocompare the side effects in both the cases Phase 3- In this phase effectiveness of addinga new treatment to the standard treatment isstudied 100-1000 volunteers participate in thisphase Stats approach- Participants arerandomly split into two groups 1st group(treatment group) receives the standardtreatment + new vaccine and 2nd group (controlgroup) receives standard treatment + placebo(a treatment that looks identical to the newtreatment but contains no active ingredient) Inthis phase mean time taken to develop antibodies in both the groups are compared usingZ-test (Test of significance for difference inmeans)

Phase 4- In this phase no volunteers areinvolved researchersrsquo monitor drug safety andeffectiveness It involves optimal usage

Codes canrsquot lie but comments can mightseems to be simple yet very meaningful

We all live in the digital era of hightechnologies smart devices and mobilesolutions Data is an essential aspect of anybusiness Itrsquos crucial to gather process andanalyse the data flow and to do that as quicklyand accurately as possible Nowadays the datavolume can be large which makes informationhandling time-consuming and expensive Dueto this precise reason the data science industryis growing at a rapid pace creating newpossibilities as well as opportunities and pythonis one of the solutions to understand andanalyse such big data sets It is a cross-functional language that has lots of advantagesto offer This object-oriented programminglanguage is commonly used to streamline largecomplex data sets Not only this it has a highreadability that helps data analysts to save timeby typing fewer lines of code for accomplishingthe tasks Therefore itrsquos not surprising at allthat it is claimed to be the preferredprogramming language for data science

Let me tell you why Python is a number oneoption for data analysis-

gtgt Easy to LearnBeing involved in development for web servicesmobile apps as well as coding Yes it is one ofthe most famous language characteristics Morethan that a low and thus fast learning curve isthe next pre-eminence of Python whencomparing it with older languages on offer

gtgt Well-SupportedHaving the experience of using some tools forfree you probably know that it is a challenge toget decent support but thatrsquos not the case withPython Despite the high simplicity there can besituations when you still need help with PythonBeing in widespread use like in industries oracademic areas Python has a broad array ofhelpful libraries with tons of helpful and supportmaterials The great benefit is that all thelibraries are available at no cost

gtgt ScalabilityThis Pythonrsquos feature is closely connected withthe previous option Comparing with otherlanguages like R Java python is much fasterand more scalable Therefore it is good invarious fields that can solve a wide range ofproblems Thatrsquos why many companies havemigrated to Python

(34)

gtgt Huge Libraries CollectionAs I have already mentioned Python is one ofthe most supported languages nowadays Ithas a long list of totally free libraries availablefor all the users Thatrsquos a key factor that givesa strong push for Python If yoursquore involved inthe field more likely you are acquainted withsuch names as Pandas SciPy Stats ModelsMatplotlib etc libraries that are intensivelyutilized in the data science community Hereyou can easily find a solution needed forhassle-free work without additional expenses

gtgt Graphics and Visualization ToolsItrsquos a well-known fact that visual information ismuch easier to understand operate andremember So here is some good news foryou There is a pack of diverse visualizationoptions available that makes python a must-have tool not only for data analysis but for alldata science You can make the data moreaccessible and easier to use by means ofcreating various charts and graphics as wellas interactive plots Always remember that thesuccess of your business directly depends onthe ability to extract knowledge and insightsfrom data to make effective strategicdecisions stay competitive and makeprogress and Python is the internationallyclaimed programming language to help us inhandling our data in a better manner for avariety of causes

ldquoCollege life is known as one of the most memorable years of astudentrsquos life exposing them to new experiences like meeting new

people learning new things exploring places etcrdquo

A registered clinical psychologist in Honk Kongnamed Zanonia Chiu said - ldquoGoing to school hadbeen a struggle for some children (withdepression) prior to the pandemic but at leastthey had school routines to stick with Now thatschools are closed some lock themselves upinside their rooms for weeks refusing to takeshowers eat or leave their beds For somechildren with depression there will beconsiderable difficulties adjusting back to normallife when college resumesrdquo and according to anonline survey conducted with the study periodfrom April 2020 to May 2020 - Total 531372 and 243 had symptoms of depressionanxiety and stress respectively with varyingseverities (N=727)The conclusion of the surveyindicated that COVID-19 is building psychologicaldistress among vulnerable college students asthey are forced to stay home along withworsening financial situations lifestyle changesfamily situations and time spent on variousactivities

Sounds so interesting and happening right Itis true indeed but along with stressful timeaside Along with the perks of enjoyingfreedom more than ever there comesacademic pressure tasks of separation fromfamilies career building futureresponsibilities etc Boarding on with thecollege life is a stressful time for manystudents thereby affecting their mental healthMental health problems are very commonamong college students and have been anincreasing concern However the COVID-19pandemic situation has brought this vulnerablepopulation into renewed focus Following thepandemic schools colleges offices andalmost every place that involved humaninteraction was shut It is important to note thatcollegeschool or even a normal routine areimportant coping mechanisms for youngpeople with mental health issues and wheneverything is shut down they lose an anchor inlife and their symptoms could relapse

Mental health among students is a big concernhowever ldquoUNTREATEDrdquo mental illnesses are amuch bigger and exponentially growingconcern Reaching out is an important step formental health issues to be addressed andtreated but reach out to who This is the pointwhere our institution should take over Collegesplay a big role in this stage Colleges doaddress this issue through means of orientationsessions and workshops but there is still a needto address mental health more directly Themethods to address mental health issuesshould be accessible feasible and affordablefor the students For example at NorthwesternUniversity student feedback led orientationenabled organizers to shift their focus fromexpert speakers to student testimonials Meansto address the issue vary from traditionalpresentations and panel discussions to roleplays small group discussions etc Herestudents learn how to recognize mental illnesssymptoms where to find resources andsupport and how to talk to friends who mightbe struggling

The findings of this study highlighted theurgent need to develop interventions andpreventive strategies to address the mentalhealth of college students Another InterviewSurvey study conducted by the Journal ofMedical Internet Research highlighted that of195 students 138 (71) indicated increasedstress and anxiety due to the COVID-19outbreak Multiple stressors were identified thatcontributed to the increased levels of stressanxiety and depressive thoughts amongstudents These included fear and worry abouttheir own health and of their loved ones(177195 91 reported negative impacts ofthe pandemic) difficulty in concentrating(173195 89) disruptions to sleepingpatterns (168195 86) decreased socialinteractions due to physical distancing(167195 86) and increased concerns onacademic performance (159195 82) Tocope with stress and anxiety participants havesought support from others and helpedthemselves by adopting either negative orpositive coping mechanisms It is important toknow that creating awareness about any issueis never enough action is what is neededTaking leave from workschool because of a fluor a fracture is acceptable and might even helpin the process of cure and healing howevertaking time off because of stress from a mentalillness such as anxiety or depressionunfortunately is not

lsquoOnline classrsquo is a term which most of us werenrsquotfamiliar with Before this pandemic we neverthought of getting education at home Covid hasaffected all of our lives In past pursuingeducation meant going to the schoolcollege Butnow the whole scenario has changed Childrenare studying and attending classes from homeJust like there are two sides of a coin onlineclasses also have some advantages anddisadvantages

Starting from the advantages it saves time forboth students and teachers as they donrsquot haveto travel All they have to do is to join throughtheir mobiles or laptops Secondly studentsdonrsquot have to necessarily buy books from theshops like they had to do in offline classesbecause they are given pdfs from which they canstudy Therefore it saves money Third it can beattended from anywhere in the world Unlike inthe offline classes where we had to gather at aparticular place Fourth computer basedpractical can be easily understood as studentscan share their screen with teachers Also it iseasy for teachers to explain a topic with the helpof pictures or animations which can be easilyfound on the internet

Last but not the least Parents can keep an eyeon their children whether they are studyingproperly or not

Apart from advantages it has somedisadvantages too First sitting beside thecomputer or mobile for hours affects the eyesightof both students and teachers Doctors arereporting many cases of eyestrain amongchildren since the online classes have startedSecondly students are becoming lazy as theydonrsquot have to go out of their home Like theproverb lsquoAll work and no play makes Jack a dullboyrsquo is really happening Third students canbunk in the online classes easily As they haveno fear of punishment they learned to disobeyand disrespect teachers Fourth students havebeen given lots of assignments as a result ofwhich most students are copying othersassignments and are not learning anything newFifth it is very difficult to communicate asteachers cannot give attention to each studentLastly it can be concluded that no matter howthe classes are being held a student must bededicated and sincere towards their studiesAfter all onersquos future depends on what they do intheir present

An actuary is a business executive professionally trained in the mathematical sciences Actuariesspecialize in the evaluation of financial riskmdashmost often in the context of life health and casualtyinsurance where they design analyse and refine varied programs to meet the insurance needs ofsociety A growing number of actuaries work in the areas of assetliability management and risk managementSome of these actuaries are employed by investment and consulting firms others are employed byinsurance companies

Actuaries have been called financial architects and social mathematicians because their combinedanalytical and business skills help solve a growing variety of financial and social problems Theactuarial profession is a demanding yet rewarding career choice

In a world bombarded with numerical information informed decisions rely on the ability to separatefact from fiction by applying valid statistical analyses and visualizations Statisticians can providecrucial guidance in determining what information is reliable and which predictions may be trustedThey often help search for clues to the solution of a scientific mystery and sometimes keepinvestigators from being misled by false impressions

Thousands of statisticians work in medicine law agriculture public policy marketing manufacturingengineering and other fields in the social and natural sciences The diversity of applications is anexciting aspect of the field and is one more reason why the demand for well-trained statisticianscontinues to be strong

The curtain lifts on Bryant Elementary Schools Spring Recorder Recital Ninety third-graders fumble with their instruments take a breath

and blow Their parents braced breathe too

as Hot Crossed Buns emerges a little scattershot -- the Normal Distribution brought to life

By Go Tell Aunt Rhodie the audience

is moved by their sheer pretty-goodness though one kid knocks her music to the floor

and another squeaks to demonstrate

the tail two standard deviations below the mean The curve implies

that somewhere on stage another kid

just played a note so sweet he might shatter Mrs Wedermeyers glasses And if

there are a mother and father who think

that child is theirs may they be forgiven even if the child shining in their eyes

is moving his fingers slightly out of rhythm

even if hes never led the bell curve in his life In consecutive measures of almost unison

its easy to believe these children are musicians

Their parents do so stirred by Ode to Joy they rise to their feet with the final phrase

clapping from the darkened auditorium

at once as one heroically like the parents theyve meant to be

EK NAYA SAFAR

Mubarak ho apko zindgi ka naya safar

Naya hai sheher nai hai dagar

Chut gaye kuch rishte purane

But donrsquot worry yaar mil jayenge naye diwane

Kuch tum jaise khuch tum se alag

So just smile and start a new life

Dosti yaari ko zara side mai rakh ke

Edhar gaur famiye janab

Course toh tumne acha chuna hai

Kuch socha hai ya ese hi liya hai

College mai admission jab hota hai

Toh andar khushi ke fuvare futne lagte hai

Lekin syllabus o dekh kar yeh bhi dagmagane lagte hai

Mana CP paas hai vahi maat ghumte rehna

Varna paper mai cafeacute ki menu sheet hi likhte rehna

Donrsquot take a chill pill coz yaha ki teachers hai thori strict

Just because they want you to be the best

Ab kya kare college ka har din mamuli nahi hota

Aur 9 se 4 sirf parai nahi hoti

Gumo firo esh karo but parna na bhulo

Mana es saal kuch zyada hi speed breakers hai

But the best part is hum sab bhi toh sath hai

PONDERINGAll of humanity is but a set of numbers You and I

are nothing more than a statisticJust think about any decision you had to take

recently No matter your choice you might findyourself ending up only as an infinitesimal

decimal in the final percentage of a statisticianrsquosdiscourse Let me give you an example pertinent

to the world we live in today Say yoursquore arepublican and have to decide whether to wear a

mask or not Naturally your political instinctmight warn you against it However you might

still be inclined to wear one because yoursquoregenuinely scared about what the ldquoliberalsrdquo have

to say about the SARS-COV-2 Now now letrsquos notgo off-topic here I know you might be wondering

what yoursquod do if you were in a Republicanrsquos shoesBut thatrsquos not the point

In the end it seldom matters whether you are arepublican or a liberal especially in situations

like these What matters in the end is if you didgo out without wearing that infuriating

smothering mask And if you contracted thewretched virus because of it If yes hard luck

Yoursquore nothing more than one of the 841 millionpeople who have it Thatrsquos all that people aroundthe world will see Not your gender not your ageand certainly not your political belief Of course

there will be studies about the correlation ofthese factors with the incidence rate of the

infections but thatrsquos another story altogether andnot one possibly as broad as the one we talk

aboutMoreover the correlation must not be

confused with causation Now perhaps thatrsquosa story for another day But think about it thisway whether you go to college or drop out of

high school whether you choose to live ordecide to die no matter the decision no

matter your inclination or choice whetheryou like it or not you will be nothing more

than a statisticIt might sound a bit gloomy to be honestWhen I first thought about it I felt almostinsignificant Like a tiny speck of dust in a

galaxy of stars Alas isnrsquot that all that we arethough

A pale blue dot in an ocean of stars Ourplanet one among millions or perhaps

billions of others All 78 billion of us fightingfor a place in the world knowing full well we

canrsquot all possibly have it It might makeanyone feel overwhelmed but therersquos

something about that that is so challenging itis almost inspiring We all know statistics andwe all know life But the true beauty of life lies

in the ability to defy statistics Only onequestion remains are you up for the

challenge

It wonrsquot be any exaggeration If itrsquos said that tools of statistician are used in almost all fields ofcalculation

Be it research finance sports marketing sales health care or population countingIt is a crucial process behind How we make discoveries in science

Making decisions or claiming predictions It plays a crucial play in all situationsStats is involved everywhere from collection to interpretation From explanation to

presentationStatistics helps avoiding a wide variety of analytical traps By making sure that study follow

It always seems impossible until it is done

If it makes you happyit doesnt have to make sense to others

When you cant find the sunshinebe the sunshine

Either you run the day or let the day run you

When you focus on the goodthe good gets better

It takes the same energy to worry as it doesto be positive so use your energy to thinkpositive and positive things will happen

The one thing that doesnt abide by majority rule is a persons conscience

Make happiness a priority and be gentle with yourself in the process

College the best start to unfold lifes beauty

Goodbye to the mistakes weve made remember the laughs weve shared

Will never forget these years

People are capable at anytime in their lives of doing what they dream of

productivity and replace it by degree ofpresence

May every sunrise bring you hopeMay every sunset bring you peace

If you dont believe in yourself thenno one is going to believe in you So

Believe in Yourself

Be who you are and say what you feelbecause those who mind donrsquot matter and

those who matter donrsquot mind

Success is liking yourself liking what you do and liking how you do it

Happiness is a by-product of an effort to make someone else happy

If you are not willing to risk the unusual you will have to settle for the ordinary

Always keep it clean simple and precise

Hustle until you no longer have to introduce yourself

Dream it Wish it Do it

There are no limits to what you can accomplish except the limits you place

on your own thinking

The greatness of humanity is not in being human but in being humane

You will be exactly as happy as you decide

One thing to learn from the sun is thatwhenever a cloud tries to hinder itslight it finds its own path to shine

Excellence is not achieved - it is aspired to and trekked towards The tougher the trek

the better the views

I think the day we figure out everythingabout our lives is the day we die

Finding your magic can be scary but owning it will be EUPHORIA

An approximate answer to the right problem is worth a good deal more than

an exact answer to an approximate problem

Our greatest weakness lies in giving up The most certain way to succeed is always to try just one more time

The aim is to live happily heal throughevery situation and learn everything new

with every step taken

Believe in progress not perfection

Croxton and Cowden defines statistics as the science of collection presentation analysis andinterpretation of numerical data Progressively the Statistics subject come to be more and more popular and its application hasbecome more extensive Now almost there is no field of human activity where statistics are not usedNowadays it is used by economists businessmen scientists administrators etc To be more preciseabout the importance of statistics in our life lets discuss some astonishing reasons that we haveoverheard on several occasions

1 Everyone lookout for weather forecasting Have you ever thought how do you acquire thatinformation There are some computer models constructed on the basis of statistical conceptsThese computer models relate past weather with the present weather and predict future weather

2 Statistics frequently used by the researchers They use their statistical skills to collect therelevant data Otherwise it results in a loss of money time and data

3 What do you understand by insurance Everyone has some kind of insurance whether it ismedical home or any other insurance Several businesses use statistical models based on anindividual application to calculate the risk of giving insurance Life tables are indispensable for thesolution of all questions relating to the duration of human life 4 Statistic plays significant role in financial market Statistics are the key of how traders andbusinessmen invest and make money

5 Statistics play a big role in the medical field For testing the efficacy of a manufacturing druginjection or medicine for controlling curing specific ailments most of the applications of medicalfields lies in using the tests of significance (more precisely studentrsquos t-test) The testing of theeffectiveness of a medicine by the manufacturing concern is a must since only after theeffectiveness of the medicine is proven by the sound statistical techniques that it will venture tomanufacture it on a large scale and bring it out in the market By statistical techniques (t and Fsignificance tests) comparative study of different medicines can also be made

6 In industry Statistical techniques are used in quality testing Companies manufacture manyproducts on a daily basis and every company make sure that they sell the best quality items Butcompanies cannot test all the products so they use sampling techniques which are a very importantaspect of statistical theory 7 We make variety of predictions in daily life For examples we keep the alarm for the morningwhen we donrsquot know that we will be alive in the morning or not Here we use statistics basics to makepredictions

8 Using statistics concepts doctors predict disease Suppose a survey shows that 75-80people have cancer and not able to find the reason Where the statistics is involved there you canhave a better idea on how the cancer may affect your body

9 News reporter makes a prediction of winner for elections based on political campaigns Herestatistics play a very important role to find out who will form the government 10 Statistics data allow us to collect the information around the world The internet is a devisewhich help us to collect the information The fundamental behind the internet is based on statisticsand mathematics concepts 11 Not only in peace times but in war times also statistics can be used very effectively It ispractically not possible to face a war without the factual data concerning the military strength of theenemy in terms of manpower military tanks war aeroplanes missiles ammunition etc

BIOSTATISTICS is the application of statisticalmethods in studies in biology andencompasses the design of experiments thecollection of data from them and the analysisand interpretation of data The data comes froma wide range of sources including genomicstudies experiments with cells and organismsand clinical trials Biostatistics is the applicationof statistical principles to questions andproblems in medicine public health or biologyOne can imagine that it might be of interest tocharacterize a given population with respect tothe proportion who has asthma and it wouldalso be important to estimate the magnitude ofthese problems over time or perhaps in differentlocations Statistics is a science of compilingclassifying and tabulating numerical data andexpressing the results in a mathematical andgraphical form whereas biostatistics is thebranch of statistics concerned with themathematical facts and data related to biologicalevents

Francis Galton created the statistical conceptcorrelation Sir Galton for the first time usedstatistical tools to study differences amonghuman population He also invented the use ofquestionnaires surveys for collecting data onhuman communities Biostatistics are the eventand application of statistical method to a goodrange of topic in biology It encompasses theplanning of biological experiments the gatheringand analysis of knowledge from thoseexperiments and therefore the interpretation ofthe results Biostatistics is sometimesdistinguished from the field of biometry basedupon whether applications are in the healthsciences (bio statistics) or in broader biology(biometry example agriculture ecology wildlifebiology) More and more things are nowmeasured quantitatively in medicine and publichealth There is a great deal of inherent variationin most biological processes Public health andmedicine are becoming increasingly quantitative

(20)

It is used to test whether the differencebetween two populations is real or by chanceoccurrence to study the correlation betweenattributes in the same population and toevaluate the achievements of public healthprograms Biostatistics has applications in allthe branches of life sciences such as formapping chromosomes for studying thebehavior of genes in a population and forconduction of drug treatment trails etcBiostatistics deals with data arising frombiomedical research It remains a very activeresearch area with complicated time-to-eventdata and missing data emerging in applicationareas including medicine geneticsneuroscience and engineering Recentadvances in biomedical research have creatednew challenges and opportunities forstatisticians and data scientists For examplebig data analysis precision medicine artificialintelligence causal inference and other newresearch fields have inspired data scientists todevelop modern statistical methods andinnovative inference procedures

As technology progresses the physicianencounters more and more quantitative ratherthan descriptive information In one sensestatistics is the language of assembling andhandling quantitative material Even if onersquosconcern is only with the results of other peoplersquosmanipulation and assemblage of data it isimportant to achieve some understanding of thislanguage in order to interpret their resultsproperly Statistics pervades the medicalliterature As a consequence of the increasinglyquantitative nature of public health and medicineand its reliance on statistical methodology themedical literature is replete with reports in whichstatistical techniques are used extensivelyBiostatistics is used to determine how diseasesdevelop progress and spread

For example biostatisticians use statistics topredict the behavior of an illness like flu It is usedto help predict the mortality rate the symptomsand even the time of year people might get it

Over 50 years ago there was a subject whichwas unnoticed and mainly focused on the studyand analysis of data Statisticians urgedacademic statistics to transcend its boundariesbeyond the realm of theoretical statistics Morestress was laid on data presentation Datascience is a discipline which is guided bycomputing informatics operation researchmathematics and statistics

Statistics is treated as the most important tool insorting and analysing data It is beneficial ingiving a deeper vision of the data Statisticswidely depends upon experiments and surveysWith the help of descriptive statisticscalculations like mean median etc can bedone on the data On the other hand inferentialstatistics helps in drawing inferences andconclusions from the population Both domainsof statistics play a very important role in DataScience In order to get a structured data andmaking predictions statistical methods and toolsare very essential They are able to carry outmany analytical tasks

Statistical Analysis is the study of surveying agiven set of data and observing patterns andtrends It is used in research fields to createstatistical models for performing certainexperiments on a population

The focus is to gather information from thesmallest quantity of data The experimentsinvolve accurate calculations and therefore giverespective results Statistics forms the base ofData Science It requires optimization of hugedatabases which is achieved with the help ofdifferent statistical tools In todayrsquos data drivenworld Data Science is turning out to be one ofthe most demanded professions Almost all firmsand companies are in search of data scientistsas the data keeps on piling up and the need ofinterpreting analysing and cleaning it is risingThe ultimate aim of Statistics and Data Scienceis to extricate cognizance from large amounts ofdata

Whenever the word lsquobusinessrsquo is heard lsquosalesrsquo isthe word which comes to our mind next and whatexactly assists sales is STATISTICS Donrsquotbelieve me but I am sure after reading the articleyou would all agree to my point too So what doesa businessman do He manufactures and sellsthe goods produced to the public but both ofthese basic functions of the businessman cannotbe transcended without the help of statistics toolssuch as survey statistics driven softwares tocollect and analyse the demand of the customerand to what extent ie the quantity in which it isrequired in order to maximize their total revenueThe graphs and the tables formed ie the statshelp them to know the exact condition of themarket and its inclination so that they could comeout with offers and discounts in order to attractpublic towards their product maximizing theirsales The businessmen who is believed to bevery quick and accurate in decision making is allassisted by statistics at every point fromanalysing their sales profit margins wages of theemployees the improvements required in theproduct the billing counters are all carriedforward with the help of statistical tools Thefinancial resources required for investing in thebusiness are also arranged according to theassistance given by the data analysts Themarketing and advertisement of the products alsoneeds statistics Now you would be thinking how

amp its regular maintenance is all handled bystatistical applications In order to calculate theaverage mean median loss profit and all theother commerce related terms in businessesdealing with large amount of data is all handledby statisticians Statistics also helps inmaintaining employee performancemanagement A manager collects data aboutemployee productivity such as the number oftasks completed or the number of unitsproduced He or she must analyse data to findways in which an employee should improve toachieve maximum productivity Manycompanies also collect data about employeeengagement and happiness on the job whichcan be tracked to not only keep workersmotivated but ensure they dont leave for otherpositions elsewhere This helps in increasingthe efficiency of the employees and also createsa healthy working environment I have listed lotof points to prove the importance of statistics inbusinesses and hope that you will now agree towhat I mentioned in the beginning of the article

Whenever a method of marketing is thought thepercentage of people to get influenced the agegroup to target the kind of offers to be laid downare all done through statistics You might haveheard that now data is the new oil that means lifeis all surrounded with data and for the data andthe demand for its upkeep and analysis the dataanalysts are required and in big organizationswho actually target all age groups and sell allkinds of products on a large scale have a largedatabase not only of the customers but also oftheir n number of employees So an organizationis incomplete without data and where there isdata there is statistics In fact I would say thatan organization isnrsquot an organization if they donot have data and its proper upkeep in such acase the company will surely drain out so thisactually proves how important statistics hasbecome in the business point of view Thebanking sector canrsquot function without statisticsand this banking business forms the backbone ofthe country since all the customers of the bankhave loads of data for a particular bank account

Statistics is the science of learning from dataStatistical knowledge helps an individual to usethe proper methods for collecting data employthe correct analysis and present the resultseffectively Statistical analysis is thus used inalmost all fields to make sense out of the vastamount of data that is available Thus statisticalmethodologies are not only useful in drawingimportant results but also play a significant role inproducing new findings and understanding thework of others One such field which has wideuse of the statistical techniques andmethodologies is the Insurance Sector Insuranceis basically the business of risk as it involves thetransfer of risk from one party to another

The main incoming and outgoing source ofincome in the business of insurance is throughpremiums and claims respectively Manystatistical models are used to model claimsand losses Parameters for these distributionsare estimated using Method of momentMaximum likelihood estimates etc and thenGoodness of fit testis applied to check howwell our distribution fits to the data Timeseries model plays an important role inforecasting future values Statistics is used toanswer the most important questions for theinsurance industry What percentage ofpolicies are expected to payout How muchmoney the company must expect to payout inclaims Different methods of data collectioneither in primary or secondary form are usedto determine the required reserves premiumand future predictions Apart from this manystatistical methods for eg Linear modelmethod which uses regression as the maintool in determining the factors affectingpremiums Loss distribution method in whichhistogram and bar graphs are made tocompare different categories and complexstatistical tools such as Ruin Theory and Run-off triangles are used to develop newproducts absorb and evaluate risk and ruinwhen balancing claims reserves andpremiums Thus statistics plays anirreplaceable role in the life cycle ofinsurance business for both life and non-life insurance

Statistics help in

Measuring the stability of drugs-II) Production of drugs according to demandsIII) Effectiveness of drugsIV) Quality control of drugs V) Marketing of drugs VI) Testing the side effects of the drug with thehelp of data VII) Going through the procedure of approvaland public distribution of drugs

Statistics in developing a drug

A lot of statistics tools are used duringproduction clinical trials and marketing andpublic distribution of drugs-1 Average (mean median and mode) Usedduring experiments like stability testingcombination of chemicals and checking acidity orbasicity of solutions to calculate mean averageresults2 Standard deviation and variance It is ameasure of testing precision Can be used toevaluate precision at various points in a processor to evaluate the precision between two differentmethods of the experiment3 Q test for rejecting data It is used to checkoutliers in data ie to check unusual deviation ina data set to see if it can be statistically rejected

4 Confidence limits It helps in finding theprobability of the true value being within acalculable range It makes use of multiplyingstandard deviation with studentrsquos t-factor thatdetermines the confidence interval of theobservation at the stated confidence level5 t F Chi-square and other tests Helps incomparing the results of two data sets For egside effects of different medication in the samepopulation6 Correlation Helps to detect the relationbetween two attributes of a data for eg howthe effect of a medicine increases or decreasesdue to the change in dosage how increase ordecrease in temperature affects the stability ofcertain medication

Clinical Trials

Clinical trials are research studies that evaluatenew ways to improve treatments and quality oflife for people with disease and in presentscenario global pandemic COVID-19 Resultsfrom Clinical trials help develop

1 New drugsvaccines 2 New diagnostic tools 3 New clinical procedures

Participants volunteer for clinical trials

(28)

In this method of stratified random sampling isused to divide the volunteers into different stratabased on shared attributes or characteristicssuch as gender medical conditions and otherspecifics These stratarsquos are used in differentphases of clinical trials

Clinical trials have 4 phases

Before trial begins volunteers need tounderstand the potential benefits and potentialrisks before participating in clinical trials thatrsquoswhy pre-clinical phase is conducted to test thenew treatment on animals and healthyvolunteers This part comes under descriptivestatistics where we are using the observed(benefits and risks) for further research Phase 1- In this new treatment is tested for thefirst time to know how treatment affects thebody to determine a safe dose range forvaccine and their side effects It involvesrelatively 20-80 volunteers Stats approach-Association analysis is performed to capture thecorrelations between drug therapeuticindications and side-effects In order to achievethis goal we adopted Fishers exact test whichis a widely used approach for measuring thesignificance of the association between twonominal variables For example to test thesignificance of the association between drugtherapeutic indications A and drug side effect B

Phase 2- The study involves how well a newtreatment or combination of treatment goes wellwith certain types of patients It involves up to300 patient volunteers For example out oftotal cancer patients half of the patients areselected randomly and are given cancertreatment along with new vaccine and other halfare given cancer treatment along with standardtreatment of corona virus Now side effects inboth the cases are noted Aim is to determinewhich combination of treatment will have lessside effects Chi- square test is used tocompare the side effects in both the cases Phase 3- In this phase effectiveness of addinga new treatment to the standard treatment isstudied 100-1000 volunteers participate in thisphase Stats approach- Participants arerandomly split into two groups 1st group(treatment group) receives the standardtreatment + new vaccine and 2nd group (controlgroup) receives standard treatment + placebo(a treatment that looks identical to the newtreatment but contains no active ingredient) Inthis phase mean time taken to develop antibodies in both the groups are compared usingZ-test (Test of significance for difference inmeans)

Phase 4- In this phase no volunteers areinvolved researchersrsquo monitor drug safety andeffectiveness It involves optimal usage

lsquoOnline classrsquo is a term which most of us werenrsquotfamiliar with Before this pandemic we neverthought of getting education at home Covid hasaffected all of our lives In past pursuingeducation meant going to the schoolcollege Butnow the whole scenario has changed Childrenare studying and attending classes from homeJust like there are two sides of a coin onlineclasses also have some advantages anddisadvantages

Starting from the advantages it saves time forboth students and teachers as they donrsquot haveto travel All they have to do is to join throughtheir mobiles or laptops Secondly studentsdonrsquot have to necessarily buy books from theshops like they had to do in offline classesbecause they are given pdfs from which they canstudy Therefore it saves money Third it can beattended from anywhere in the world Unlike inthe offline classes where we had to gather at aparticular place Fourth computer basedpractical can be easily understood as studentscan share their screen with teachers Also it iseasy for teachers to explain a topic with the helpof pictures or animations which can be easilyfound on the internet

Last but not the least Parents can keep an eyeon their children whether they are studyingproperly or not

Apart from advantages it has somedisadvantages too First sitting beside thecomputer or mobile for hours affects the eyesightof both students and teachers Doctors arereporting many cases of eyestrain amongchildren since the online classes have startedSecondly students are becoming lazy as theydonrsquot have to go out of their home Like theproverb lsquoAll work and no play makes Jack a dullboyrsquo is really happening Third students canbunk in the online classes easily As they haveno fear of punishment they learned to disobeyand disrespect teachers Fourth students havebeen given lots of assignments as a result ofwhich most students are copying othersassignments and are not learning anything newFifth it is very difficult to communicate asteachers cannot give attention to each studentLastly it can be concluded that no matter howthe classes are being held a student must bededicated and sincere towards their studiesAfter all onersquos future depends on what they do intheir present

An actuary is a business executive professionally trained in the mathematical sciences Actuariesspecialize in the evaluation of financial riskmdashmost often in the context of life health and casualtyinsurance where they design analyse and refine varied programs to meet the insurance needs ofsociety A growing number of actuaries work in the areas of assetliability management and risk managementSome of these actuaries are employed by investment and consulting firms others are employed byinsurance companies

Actuaries have been called financial architects and social mathematicians because their combinedanalytical and business skills help solve a growing variety of financial and social problems Theactuarial profession is a demanding yet rewarding career choice

In a world bombarded with numerical information informed decisions rely on the ability to separatefact from fiction by applying valid statistical analyses and visualizations Statisticians can providecrucial guidance in determining what information is reliable and which predictions may be trustedThey often help search for clues to the solution of a scientific mystery and sometimes keepinvestigators from being misled by false impressions

Thousands of statisticians work in medicine law agriculture public policy marketing manufacturingengineering and other fields in the social and natural sciences The diversity of applications is anexciting aspect of the field and is one more reason why the demand for well-trained statisticianscontinues to be strong

Poetry

Contributed by Dr Komal Goel

(41)

Contributed by Dr Meenu Goel

The curtain lifts on Bryant Elementary Schools Spring Recorder Recital Ninety third-graders fumble with their instruments take a breath

and blow Their parents braced breathe too

as Hot Crossed Buns emerges a little scattershot -- the Normal Distribution brought to life

By Go Tell Aunt Rhodie the audience

is moved by their sheer pretty-goodness though one kid knocks her music to the floor

and another squeaks to demonstrate

the tail two standard deviations below the mean The curve implies

that somewhere on stage another kid

just played a note so sweet he might shatter Mrs Wedermeyers glasses And if

there are a mother and father who think

that child is theirs may they be forgiven even if the child shining in their eyes

is moving his fingers slightly out of rhythm

even if hes never led the bell curve in his life In consecutive measures of almost unison

its easy to believe these children are musicians

Their parents do so stirred by Ode to Joy they rise to their feet with the final phrase

clapping from the darkened auditorium

at once as one heroically like the parents theyve meant to be

EK NAYA SAFAR

Mubarak ho apko zindgi ka naya safar

Naya hai sheher nai hai dagar

Chut gaye kuch rishte purane

But donrsquot worry yaar mil jayenge naye diwane

Kuch tum jaise khuch tum se alag

So just smile and start a new life

Dosti yaari ko zara side mai rakh ke

Edhar gaur famiye janab

Course toh tumne acha chuna hai

Kuch socha hai ya ese hi liya hai

College mai admission jab hota hai

Toh andar khushi ke fuvare futne lagte hai

Lekin syllabus o dekh kar yeh bhi dagmagane lagte hai

Mana CP paas hai vahi maat ghumte rehna

Varna paper mai cafeacute ki menu sheet hi likhte rehna

Donrsquot take a chill pill coz yaha ki teachers hai thori strict

Just because they want you to be the best

Ab kya kare college ka har din mamuli nahi hota

Aur 9 se 4 sirf parai nahi hoti

Gumo firo esh karo but parna na bhulo

Mana es saal kuch zyada hi speed breakers hai

But the best part is hum sab bhi toh sath hai

PONDERINGAll of humanity is but a set of numbers You and I

are nothing more than a statisticJust think about any decision you had to take

recently No matter your choice you might findyourself ending up only as an infinitesimal

decimal in the final percentage of a statisticianrsquosdiscourse Let me give you an example pertinent

to the world we live in today Say yoursquore arepublican and have to decide whether to wear a

mask or not Naturally your political instinctmight warn you against it However you might

still be inclined to wear one because yoursquoregenuinely scared about what the ldquoliberalsrdquo have

to say about the SARS-COV-2 Now now letrsquos notgo off-topic here I know you might be wondering

what yoursquod do if you were in a Republicanrsquos shoesBut thatrsquos not the point

In the end it seldom matters whether you are arepublican or a liberal especially in situations

like these What matters in the end is if you didgo out without wearing that infuriating

smothering mask And if you contracted thewretched virus because of it If yes hard luck

Yoursquore nothing more than one of the 841 millionpeople who have it Thatrsquos all that people aroundthe world will see Not your gender not your ageand certainly not your political belief Of course

there will be studies about the correlation ofthese factors with the incidence rate of the

infections but thatrsquos another story altogether andnot one possibly as broad as the one we talk

aboutMoreover the correlation must not be

confused with causation Now perhaps thatrsquosa story for another day But think about it thisway whether you go to college or drop out of

high school whether you choose to live ordecide to die no matter the decision no

matter your inclination or choice whetheryou like it or not you will be nothing more

than a statisticIt might sound a bit gloomy to be honestWhen I first thought about it I felt almostinsignificant Like a tiny speck of dust in a

galaxy of stars Alas isnrsquot that all that we arethough

A pale blue dot in an ocean of stars Ourplanet one among millions or perhaps

billions of others All 78 billion of us fightingfor a place in the world knowing full well we

canrsquot all possibly have it It might makeanyone feel overwhelmed but therersquos

something about that that is so challenging itis almost inspiring We all know statistics andwe all know life But the true beauty of life lies

in the ability to defy statistics Only onequestion remains are you up for the

challenge

It wonrsquot be any exaggeration If itrsquos said that tools of statistician are used in almost all fields ofcalculation

Be it research finance sports marketing sales health care or population countingIt is a crucial process behind How we make discoveries in science

Making decisions or claiming predictions It plays a crucial play in all situationsStats is involved everywhere from collection to interpretation From explanation to

presentationStatistics helps avoiding a wide variety of analytical traps By making sure that study follow

apt methods in all aspectsChallenging your own assumptions Or drawing data-based conclusions

Statistics is always there Making things crisp and clear

It always seems impossible until it is done

If it makes you happyit doesnt have to make sense to others

When you cant find the sunshinebe the sunshine

Either you run the day or let the day run you

When you focus on the goodthe good gets better

It takes the same energy to worry as it doesto be positive so use your energy to thinkpositive and positive things will happen

The one thing that doesnt abide by majority rule is a persons conscience

Make happiness a priority and be gentle with yourself in the process

College the best start to unfold lifes beauty

Goodbye to the mistakes weve made remember the laughs weve shared

Will never forget these years

If you dont believe in yourself thenno one is going to believe in you So

Believe in Yourself

Be who you are and say what you feelbecause those who mind donrsquot matter and

those who matter donrsquot mind

Success is liking yourself liking what you do and liking how you do it

Happiness is a by-product of an effort to make someone else happy

If you are not willing to risk the unusual you will have to settle for the ordinary

Always keep it clean simple and precise

Hustle until you no longer have to introduce yourself

Dream it Wish it Do it

ALUMINI SPEAKSIts been a privilege to be the leading batch of the Department of StatisticsMata Sundri College None less than a roller coaster with every newchallenge we have rocked it on together With the amazing faculty it neverfelt like we needed the Seniors We have created our paths and wont letour juniors struggle for it always there to their rescue I have been a part of the statistics society for all the years and haveexperienced the best of it I see the society and the department growingwhich surely adds a feather to my capWishing for the best of it with all my heartI wish I could relive those best three years spent at the department witheveryone in my batch and the teachersGood luck

Croxton and Cowden defines statistics as the science of collection presentation analysis andinterpretation of numerical data Progressively the Statistics subject come to be more and more popular and its application hasbecome more extensive Now almost there is no field of human activity where statistics are not usedNowadays it is used by economists businessmen scientists administrators etc To be more preciseabout the importance of statistics in our life lets discuss some astonishing reasons that we haveoverheard on several occasions

1 Everyone lookout for weather forecasting Have you ever thought how do you acquire thatinformation There are some computer models constructed on the basis of statistical conceptsThese computer models relate past weather with the present weather and predict future weather

2 Statistics frequently used by the researchers They use their statistical skills to collect therelevant data Otherwise it results in a loss of money time and data

3 What do you understand by insurance Everyone has some kind of insurance whether it ismedical home or any other insurance Several businesses use statistical models based on anindividual application to calculate the risk of giving insurance Life tables are indispensable for thesolution of all questions relating to the duration of human life 4 Statistic plays significant role in financial market Statistics are the key of how traders andbusinessmen invest and make money

5 Statistics play a big role in the medical field For testing the efficacy of a manufacturing druginjection or medicine for controlling curing specific ailments most of the applications of medicalfields lies in using the tests of significance (more precisely studentrsquos t-test) The testing of theeffectiveness of a medicine by the manufacturing concern is a must since only after theeffectiveness of the medicine is proven by the sound statistical techniques that it will venture tomanufacture it on a large scale and bring it out in the market By statistical techniques (t and Fsignificance tests) comparative study of different medicines can also be made

(18)

6 In industry Statistical techniques are used in quality testing Companies manufacture manyproducts on a daily basis and every company make sure that they sell the best quality items Butcompanies cannot test all the products so they use sampling techniques which are a very importantaspect of statistical theory 7 We make variety of predictions in daily life For examples we keep the alarm for the morningwhen we donrsquot know that we will be alive in the morning or not Here we use statistics basics to makepredictions

8 Using statistics concepts doctors predict disease Suppose a survey shows that 75-80people have cancer and not able to find the reason Where the statistics is involved there you canhave a better idea on how the cancer may affect your body

9 News reporter makes a prediction of winner for elections based on political campaigns Herestatistics play a very important role to find out who will form the government 10 Statistics data allow us to collect the information around the world The internet is a devisewhich help us to collect the information The fundamental behind the internet is based on statisticsand mathematics concepts 11 Not only in peace times but in war times also statistics can be used very effectively It ispractically not possible to face a war without the factual data concerning the military strength of theenemy in terms of manpower military tanks war aeroplanes missiles ammunition etc

BIOSTATISTICS is the application of statisticalmethods in studies in biology andencompasses the design of experiments thecollection of data from them and the analysisand interpretation of data The data comes froma wide range of sources including genomicstudies experiments with cells and organismsand clinical trials Biostatistics is the applicationof statistical principles to questions andproblems in medicine public health or biologyOne can imagine that it might be of interest tocharacterize a given population with respect tothe proportion who has asthma and it wouldalso be important to estimate the magnitude ofthese problems over time or perhaps in differentlocations Statistics is a science of compilingclassifying and tabulating numerical data andexpressing the results in a mathematical andgraphical form whereas biostatistics is thebranch of statistics concerned with themathematical facts and data related to biologicalevents

Francis Galton created the statistical conceptcorrelation Sir Galton for the first time usedstatistical tools to study differences amonghuman population He also invented the use ofquestionnaires surveys for collecting data onhuman communities Biostatistics are the eventand application of statistical method to a goodrange of topic in biology It encompasses theplanning of biological experiments the gatheringand analysis of knowledge from thoseexperiments and therefore the interpretation ofthe results Biostatistics is sometimesdistinguished from the field of biometry basedupon whether applications are in the healthsciences (bio statistics) or in broader biology(biometry example agriculture ecology wildlifebiology) More and more things are nowmeasured quantitatively in medicine and publichealth There is a great deal of inherent variationin most biological processes Public health andmedicine are becoming increasingly quantitative

(20)

It is used to test whether the differencebetween two populations is real or by chanceoccurrence to study the correlation betweenattributes in the same population and toevaluate the achievements of public healthprograms Biostatistics has applications in allthe branches of life sciences such as formapping chromosomes for studying thebehavior of genes in a population and forconduction of drug treatment trails etcBiostatistics deals with data arising frombiomedical research It remains a very activeresearch area with complicated time-to-eventdata and missing data emerging in applicationareas including medicine geneticsneuroscience and engineering Recentadvances in biomedical research have creatednew challenges and opportunities forstatisticians and data scientists For examplebig data analysis precision medicine artificialintelligence causal inference and other newresearch fields have inspired data scientists todevelop modern statistical methods andinnovative inference procedures

As technology progresses the physicianencounters more and more quantitative ratherthan descriptive information In one sensestatistics is the language of assembling andhandling quantitative material Even if onersquosconcern is only with the results of other peoplersquosmanipulation and assemblage of data it isimportant to achieve some understanding of thislanguage in order to interpret their resultsproperly Statistics pervades the medicalliterature As a consequence of the increasinglyquantitative nature of public health and medicineand its reliance on statistical methodology themedical literature is replete with reports in whichstatistical techniques are used extensivelyBiostatistics is used to determine how diseasesdevelop progress and spread

For example biostatisticians use statistics topredict the behavior of an illness like flu It is usedto help predict the mortality rate the symptomsand even the time of year people might get it

Over 50 years ago there was a subject whichwas unnoticed and mainly focused on the studyand analysis of data Statisticians urgedacademic statistics to transcend its boundariesbeyond the realm of theoretical statistics Morestress was laid on data presentation Datascience is a discipline which is guided bycomputing informatics operation researchmathematics and statistics

Statistics is treated as the most important tool insorting and analysing data It is beneficial ingiving a deeper vision of the data Statisticswidely depends upon experiments and surveysWith the help of descriptive statisticscalculations like mean median etc can bedone on the data On the other hand inferentialstatistics helps in drawing inferences andconclusions from the population Both domainsof statistics play a very important role in DataScience In order to get a structured data andmaking predictions statistical methods and toolsare very essential They are able to carry outmany analytical tasks

Statistical Analysis is the study of surveying agiven set of data and observing patterns andtrends It is used in research fields to createstatistical models for performing certainexperiments on a population

The focus is to gather information from thesmallest quantity of data The experimentsinvolve accurate calculations and therefore giverespective results Statistics forms the base ofData Science It requires optimization of hugedatabases which is achieved with the help ofdifferent statistical tools In todayrsquos data drivenworld Data Science is turning out to be one ofthe most demanded professions Almost all firmsand companies are in search of data scientistsas the data keeps on piling up and the need ofinterpreting analysing and cleaning it is risingThe ultimate aim of Statistics and Data Scienceis to extricate cognizance from large amounts ofdata

Statistics is the science of learning from dataStatistical knowledge helps an individual to usethe proper methods for collecting data employthe correct analysis and present the resultseffectively Statistical analysis is thus used inalmost all fields to make sense out of the vastamount of data that is available Thus statisticalmethodologies are not only useful in drawingimportant results but also play a significant role inproducing new findings and understanding thework of others One such field which has wideuse of the statistical techniques andmethodologies is the Insurance Sector Insuranceis basically the business of risk as it involves thetransfer of risk from one party to another

The main incoming and outgoing source ofincome in the business of insurance is throughpremiums and claims respectively Manystatistical models are used to model claimsand losses Parameters for these distributionsare estimated using Method of momentMaximum likelihood estimates etc and thenGoodness of fit testis applied to check howwell our distribution fits to the data Timeseries model plays an important role inforecasting future values Statistics is used toanswer the most important questions for theinsurance industry What percentage ofpolicies are expected to payout How muchmoney the company must expect to payout inclaims Different methods of data collectioneither in primary or secondary form are usedto determine the required reserves premiumand future predictions Apart from this manystatistical methods for eg Linear modelmethod which uses regression as the maintool in determining the factors affectingpremiums Loss distribution method in whichhistogram and bar graphs are made tocompare different categories and complexstatistical tools such as Ruin Theory and Run-off triangles are used to develop newproducts absorb and evaluate risk and ruinwhen balancing claims reserves andpremiums Thus statistics plays anirreplaceable role in the life cycle ofinsurance business for both life and non-life insurance

Statistics help in

Measuring the stability of drugs-II) Production of drugs according to demandsIII) Effectiveness of drugsIV) Quality control of drugs V) Marketing of drugs VI) Testing the side effects of the drug with thehelp of data VII) Going through the procedure of approvaland public distribution of drugs

Statistics in developing a drug

A lot of statistics tools are used duringproduction clinical trials and marketing andpublic distribution of drugs-1 Average (mean median and mode) Usedduring experiments like stability testingcombination of chemicals and checking acidity orbasicity of solutions to calculate mean averageresults2 Standard deviation and variance It is ameasure of testing precision Can be used toevaluate precision at various points in a processor to evaluate the precision between two differentmethods of the experiment3 Q test for rejecting data It is used to checkoutliers in data ie to check unusual deviation ina data set to see if it can be statistically rejected

4 Confidence limits It helps in finding theprobability of the true value being within acalculable range It makes use of multiplyingstandard deviation with studentrsquos t-factor thatdetermines the confidence interval of theobservation at the stated confidence level5 t F Chi-square and other tests Helps incomparing the results of two data sets For egside effects of different medication in the samepopulation6 Correlation Helps to detect the relationbetween two attributes of a data for eg howthe effect of a medicine increases or decreasesdue to the change in dosage how increase ordecrease in temperature affects the stability ofcertain medication

Clinical Trials

Clinical trials are research studies that evaluatenew ways to improve treatments and quality oflife for people with disease and in presentscenario global pandemic COVID-19 Resultsfrom Clinical trials help develop

1 New drugsvaccines 2 New diagnostic tools 3 New clinical procedures

Participants volunteer for clinical trials

(28)

In this method of stratified random sampling isused to divide the volunteers into different stratabased on shared attributes or characteristicssuch as gender medical conditions and otherspecifics These stratarsquos are used in differentphases of clinical trials

Clinical trials have 4 phases

Before trial begins volunteers need tounderstand the potential benefits and potentialrisks before participating in clinical trials thatrsquoswhy pre-clinical phase is conducted to test thenew treatment on animals and healthyvolunteers This part comes under descriptivestatistics where we are using the observed(benefits and risks) for further research Phase 1- In this new treatment is tested for thefirst time to know how treatment affects thebody to determine a safe dose range forvaccine and their side effects It involvesrelatively 20-80 volunteers Stats approach-Association analysis is performed to capture thecorrelations between drug therapeuticindications and side-effects In order to achievethis goal we adopted Fishers exact test whichis a widely used approach for measuring thesignificance of the association between twonominal variables For example to test thesignificance of the association between drugtherapeutic indications A and drug side effect B

Phase 2- The study involves how well a newtreatment or combination of treatment goes wellwith certain types of patients It involves up to300 patient volunteers For example out oftotal cancer patients half of the patients areselected randomly and are given cancertreatment along with new vaccine and other halfare given cancer treatment along with standardtreatment of corona virus Now side effects inboth the cases are noted Aim is to determinewhich combination of treatment will have lessside effects Chi- square test is used tocompare the side effects in both the cases Phase 3- In this phase effectiveness of addinga new treatment to the standard treatment isstudied 100-1000 volunteers participate in thisphase Stats approach- Participants arerandomly split into two groups 1st group(treatment group) receives the standardtreatment + new vaccine and 2nd group (controlgroup) receives standard treatment + placebo(a treatment that looks identical to the newtreatment but contains no active ingredient) Inthis phase mean time taken to develop antibodies in both the groups are compared usingZ-test (Test of significance for difference inmeans)

What comes to your mind when you first hear theword Statisticsrsquo Graphs numbers or lines butwhat if I say that statistics comes with enumerablecareer opportunities The options are endless andthe jobs are just a little But what is the barrier thatholds us from thinking of Statistics as a separatesubject and just an extension of MathematicsMost of us still donrsquot know what statistics is allabout If we tell someone that we are a student ofStatistics they might just think itrsquos not a careeroption Even Google offers with a line explanationof Statistics ldquonumbers that have been collectedin order to provide information aboutsomethingrdquo Statistics is defined as theaggregate of facts affected to a market extent bymultiplicity of causes numerically expressed orestimated according to a reasonable standard ofaccuracy collected in a systematic manner forpredetermined purpose and placed in relation toeach other It is the art of learning from data It isconcerned with learning from data and theiranalysis As a plural it means numerical dataarising in any sphere of human experience thatis mostly unknown sources working togetherwhereas singularly it refers to the collection andinterpretation of numerical data The branchlsquoStatisticsrsquo is broadly divided into two formsDescriptive and Inferential Statistics DescriptiveStatistics involves collection analysation andcharacterization of data It includes graphicalmethods and numeric measures InferentialStatistic involves estimation and conclusion ofdata that has been classified under descriptivestatistics

Statistics is used in a variety of fields likecommerce trade economics chemistryastronomy industry etc Every field comes withone or the other usage of statistics Whether it bethe biggest of MNCrsquos or even a tea stall holdereveryone requires the usage of statistical tools todraw conclusion on what step they need to takenext The levels of profit or losses to obtainmaximum results from minimum resources allthis needs carefully collected data and thendrawing valid inference from it by using variousstatistical tools and techniques Even in day today life the change in prices of goodsvegetables and the trivial yet most importantdecision of whether to buy a new pair of shoes orclothes so that the house budget is not affectedcomes under Statistics The Government usesStatistics at a wide level whether it be forconducting a population census prediction ofoutcome of elections or drawing conclusions onwhether a new law should be passed or not Allthis requires Statistics It eliminates the chancesof uncertainty and predictions by laying the factsand figures required to reach to a correctdecision Even in the outbreak of this globalpandemic Statistics was extensively used be itto know numbers of cases rising daily number ofhospital facilities and medicine required therequirement of vaccines or the recovery ratesand so on The graphs drawn helped the generalpublic to easily understand the prevailingscenario and progress rate Thus Statistics is awide concept that is a helping hand in thisgrowing economy

Codes canrsquot lie but comments can mightseems to be simple yet very meaningful

We all live in the digital era of hightechnologies smart devices and mobilesolutions Data is an essential aspect of anybusiness Itrsquos crucial to gather process andanalyse the data flow and to do that as quicklyand accurately as possible Nowadays the datavolume can be large which makes informationhandling time-consuming and expensive Dueto this precise reason the data science industryis growing at a rapid pace creating newpossibilities as well as opportunities and pythonis one of the solutions to understand andanalyse such big data sets It is a cross-functional language that has lots of advantagesto offer This object-oriented programminglanguage is commonly used to streamline largecomplex data sets Not only this it has a highreadability that helps data analysts to save timeby typing fewer lines of code for accomplishingthe tasks Therefore itrsquos not surprising at allthat it is claimed to be the preferredprogramming language for data science

Let me tell you why Python is a number oneoption for data analysis-

By Tanisha Gupta ( 3rd Year )

gtgt Easy to LearnBeing involved in development for web servicesmobile apps as well as coding Yes it is one ofthe most famous language characteristics Morethan that a low and thus fast learning curve isthe next pre-eminence of Python whencomparing it with older languages on offer

gtgt Well-SupportedHaving the experience of using some tools forfree you probably know that it is a challenge toget decent support but thatrsquos not the case withPython Despite the high simplicity there can besituations when you still need help with PythonBeing in widespread use like in industries oracademic areas Python has a broad array ofhelpful libraries with tons of helpful and supportmaterials The great benefit is that all thelibraries are available at no cost

gtgt ScalabilityThis Pythonrsquos feature is closely connected withthe previous option Comparing with otherlanguages like R Java python is much fasterand more scalable Therefore it is good invarious fields that can solve a wide range ofproblems Thatrsquos why many companies havemigrated to Python

(34)

gtgt Huge Libraries CollectionAs I have already mentioned Python is one ofthe most supported languages nowadays Ithas a long list of totally free libraries availablefor all the users Thatrsquos a key factor that givesa strong push for Python If yoursquore involved inthe field more likely you are acquainted withsuch names as Pandas SciPy Stats ModelsMatplotlib etc libraries that are intensivelyutilized in the data science community Hereyou can easily find a solution needed forhassle-free work without additional expenses

gtgt Graphics and Visualization ToolsItrsquos a well-known fact that visual information ismuch easier to understand operate andremember So here is some good news foryou There is a pack of diverse visualizationoptions available that makes python a must-have tool not only for data analysis but for alldata science You can make the data moreaccessible and easier to use by means ofcreating various charts and graphics as wellas interactive plots Always remember that thesuccess of your business directly depends onthe ability to extract knowledge and insightsfrom data to make effective strategicdecisions stay competitive and makeprogress and Python is the internationallyclaimed programming language to help us inhandling our data in a better manner for avariety of causes

ldquoCollege life is known as one of the most memorable years of astudentrsquos life exposing them to new experiences like meeting new

people learning new things exploring places etcrdquo

A registered clinical psychologist in Honk Kongnamed Zanonia Chiu said - ldquoGoing to school hadbeen a struggle for some children (withdepression) prior to the pandemic but at leastthey had school routines to stick with Now thatschools are closed some lock themselves upinside their rooms for weeks refusing to takeshowers eat or leave their beds For somechildren with depression there will beconsiderable difficulties adjusting back to normallife when college resumesrdquo and according to anonline survey conducted with the study periodfrom April 2020 to May 2020 - Total 531372 and 243 had symptoms of depressionanxiety and stress respectively with varyingseverities (N=727)The conclusion of the surveyindicated that COVID-19 is building psychologicaldistress among vulnerable college students asthey are forced to stay home along withworsening financial situations lifestyle changesfamily situations and time spent on variousactivities

Sounds so interesting and happening right Itis true indeed but along with stressful timeaside Along with the perks of enjoyingfreedom more than ever there comesacademic pressure tasks of separation fromfamilies career building futureresponsibilities etc Boarding on with thecollege life is a stressful time for manystudents thereby affecting their mental healthMental health problems are very commonamong college students and have been anincreasing concern However the COVID-19pandemic situation has brought this vulnerablepopulation into renewed focus Following thepandemic schools colleges offices andalmost every place that involved humaninteraction was shut It is important to note thatcollegeschool or even a normal routine areimportant coping mechanisms for youngpeople with mental health issues and wheneverything is shut down they lose an anchor inlife and their symptoms could relapse

Mental health among students is a big concernhowever ldquoUNTREATEDrdquo mental illnesses are amuch bigger and exponentially growingconcern Reaching out is an important step formental health issues to be addressed andtreated but reach out to who This is the pointwhere our institution should take over Collegesplay a big role in this stage Colleges doaddress this issue through means of orientationsessions and workshops but there is still a needto address mental health more directly Themethods to address mental health issuesshould be accessible feasible and affordablefor the students For example at NorthwesternUniversity student feedback led orientationenabled organizers to shift their focus fromexpert speakers to student testimonials Meansto address the issue vary from traditionalpresentations and panel discussions to roleplays small group discussions etc Herestudents learn how to recognize mental illnesssymptoms where to find resources andsupport and how to talk to friends who mightbe struggling

The findings of this study highlighted theurgent need to develop interventions andpreventive strategies to address the mentalhealth of college students Another InterviewSurvey study conducted by the Journal ofMedical Internet Research highlighted that of195 students 138 (71) indicated increasedstress and anxiety due to the COVID-19outbreak Multiple stressors were identified thatcontributed to the increased levels of stressanxiety and depressive thoughts amongstudents These included fear and worry abouttheir own health and of their loved ones(177195 91 reported negative impacts ofthe pandemic) difficulty in concentrating(173195 89) disruptions to sleepingpatterns (168195 86) decreased socialinteractions due to physical distancing(167195 86) and increased concerns onacademic performance (159195 82) Tocope with stress and anxiety participants havesought support from others and helpedthemselves by adopting either negative orpositive coping mechanisms It is important toknow that creating awareness about any issueis never enough action is what is neededTaking leave from workschool because of a fluor a fracture is acceptable and might even helpin the process of cure and healing howevertaking time off because of stress from a mentalillness such as anxiety or depressionunfortunately is not

lsquoOnline classrsquo is a term which most of us werenrsquotfamiliar with Before this pandemic we neverthought of getting education at home Covid hasaffected all of our lives In past pursuingeducation meant going to the schoolcollege Butnow the whole scenario has changed Childrenare studying and attending classes from homeJust like there are two sides of a coin onlineclasses also have some advantages anddisadvantages

Starting from the advantages it saves time forboth students and teachers as they donrsquot haveto travel All they have to do is to join throughtheir mobiles or laptops Secondly studentsdonrsquot have to necessarily buy books from theshops like they had to do in offline classesbecause they are given pdfs from which they canstudy Therefore it saves money Third it can beattended from anywhere in the world Unlike inthe offline classes where we had to gather at aparticular place Fourth computer basedpractical can be easily understood as studentscan share their screen with teachers Also it iseasy for teachers to explain a topic with the helpof pictures or animations which can be easilyfound on the internet

Last but not the least Parents can keep an eyeon their children whether they are studyingproperly or not

Apart from advantages it has somedisadvantages too First sitting beside thecomputer or mobile for hours affects the eyesightof both students and teachers Doctors arereporting many cases of eyestrain amongchildren since the online classes have startedSecondly students are becoming lazy as theydonrsquot have to go out of their home Like theproverb lsquoAll work and no play makes Jack a dullboyrsquo is really happening Third students canbunk in the online classes easily As they haveno fear of punishment they learned to disobeyand disrespect teachers Fourth students havebeen given lots of assignments as a result ofwhich most students are copying othersassignments and are not learning anything newFifth it is very difficult to communicate asteachers cannot give attention to each studentLastly it can be concluded that no matter howthe classes are being held a student must bededicated and sincere towards their studiesAfter all onersquos future depends on what they do intheir present

An actuary is a business executive professionally trained in the mathematical sciences Actuariesspecialize in the evaluation of financial riskmdashmost often in the context of life health and casualtyinsurance where they design analyse and refine varied programs to meet the insurance needs ofsociety A growing number of actuaries work in the areas of assetliability management and risk managementSome of these actuaries are employed by investment and consulting firms others are employed byinsurance companies

Actuaries have been called financial architects and social mathematicians because their combinedanalytical and business skills help solve a growing variety of financial and social problems Theactuarial profession is a demanding yet rewarding career choice

In a world bombarded with numerical information informed decisions rely on the ability to separatefact from fiction by applying valid statistical analyses and visualizations Statisticians can providecrucial guidance in determining what information is reliable and which predictions may be trustedThey often help search for clues to the solution of a scientific mystery and sometimes keepinvestigators from being misled by false impressions

Thousands of statisticians work in medicine law agriculture public policy marketing manufacturingengineering and other fields in the social and natural sciences The diversity of applications is anexciting aspect of the field and is one more reason why the demand for well-trained statisticianscontinues to be strong

Contributed by Dr Meenu Goel

The curtain lifts on Bryant Elementary Schools Spring Recorder Recital Ninety third-graders fumble with their instruments take a breath

and blow Their parents braced breathe too

as Hot Crossed Buns emerges a little scattershot -- the Normal Distribution brought to life

By Go Tell Aunt Rhodie the audience

is moved by their sheer pretty-goodness though one kid knocks her music to the floor

and another squeaks to demonstrate

the tail two standard deviations below the mean The curve implies

that somewhere on stage another kid

just played a note so sweet he might shatter Mrs Wedermeyers glasses And if

there are a mother and father who think

that child is theirs may they be forgiven even if the child shining in their eyes

is moving his fingers slightly out of rhythm

even if hes never led the bell curve in his life In consecutive measures of almost unison

its easy to believe these children are musicians

Their parents do so stirred by Ode to Joy they rise to their feet with the final phrase

clapping from the darkened auditorium

at once as one heroically like the parents theyve meant to be

EK NAYA SAFAR

Mubarak ho apko zindgi ka naya safar

Naya hai sheher nai hai dagar

Chut gaye kuch rishte purane

But donrsquot worry yaar mil jayenge naye diwane

Kuch tum jaise khuch tum se alag

So just smile and start a new life

Dosti yaari ko zara side mai rakh ke

Edhar gaur famiye janab

Course toh tumne acha chuna hai

Kuch socha hai ya ese hi liya hai

College mai admission jab hota hai

Toh andar khushi ke fuvare futne lagte hai

Lekin syllabus o dekh kar yeh bhi dagmagane lagte hai

Mana CP paas hai vahi maat ghumte rehna

Varna paper mai cafeacute ki menu sheet hi likhte rehna

Donrsquot take a chill pill coz yaha ki teachers hai thori strict

Just because they want you to be the best

Ab kya kare college ka har din mamuli nahi hota

Aur 9 se 4 sirf parai nahi hoti

Gumo firo esh karo but parna na bhulo

Mana es saal kuch zyada hi speed breakers hai

But the best part is hum sab bhi toh sath hai

PONDERINGAll of humanity is but a set of numbers You and I

are nothing more than a statisticJust think about any decision you had to take

recently No matter your choice you might findyourself ending up only as an infinitesimal

decimal in the final percentage of a statisticianrsquosdiscourse Let me give you an example pertinent

to the world we live in today Say yoursquore arepublican and have to decide whether to wear a

mask or not Naturally your political instinctmight warn you against it However you might

still be inclined to wear one because yoursquoregenuinely scared about what the ldquoliberalsrdquo have

to say about the SARS-COV-2 Now now letrsquos notgo off-topic here I know you might be wondering

what yoursquod do if you were in a Republicanrsquos shoesBut thatrsquos not the point

In the end it seldom matters whether you are arepublican or a liberal especially in situations

like these What matters in the end is if you didgo out without wearing that infuriating

smothering mask And if you contracted thewretched virus because of it If yes hard luck

Yoursquore nothing more than one of the 841 millionpeople who have it Thatrsquos all that people aroundthe world will see Not your gender not your ageand certainly not your political belief Of course

there will be studies about the correlation ofthese factors with the incidence rate of the

infections but thatrsquos another story altogether andnot one possibly as broad as the one we talk

aboutMoreover the correlation must not be

confused with causation Now perhaps thatrsquosa story for another day But think about it thisway whether you go to college or drop out of

high school whether you choose to live ordecide to die no matter the decision no

matter your inclination or choice whetheryou like it or not you will be nothing more

than a statisticIt might sound a bit gloomy to be honestWhen I first thought about it I felt almostinsignificant Like a tiny speck of dust in a

galaxy of stars Alas isnrsquot that all that we arethough

A pale blue dot in an ocean of stars Ourplanet one among millions or perhaps

billions of others All 78 billion of us fightingfor a place in the world knowing full well we

canrsquot all possibly have it It might makeanyone feel overwhelmed but therersquos

something about that that is so challenging itis almost inspiring We all know statistics andwe all know life But the true beauty of life lies

in the ability to defy statistics Only onequestion remains are you up for the

challenge

It wonrsquot be any exaggeration If itrsquos said that tools of statistician are used in almost all fields ofcalculation

Be it research finance sports marketing sales health care or population countingIt is a crucial process behind How we make discoveries in science

Making decisions or claiming predictions It plays a crucial play in all situationsStats is involved everywhere from collection to interpretation From explanation to

presentationStatistics helps avoiding a wide variety of analytical traps By making sure that study follow

apt methods in all aspectsChallenging your own assumptions Or drawing data-based conclusions

Statistics is always there Making things crisp and clear

It always seems impossible until it is done

If it makes you happyit doesnt have to make sense to others

When you cant find the sunshinebe the sunshine

Either you run the day or let the day run you

When you focus on the goodthe good gets better

It takes the same energy to worry as it doesto be positive so use your energy to thinkpositive and positive things will happen

The one thing that doesnt abide by majority rule is a persons conscience

Make happiness a priority and be gentle with yourself in the process

College the best start to unfold lifes beauty

Goodbye to the mistakes weve made remember the laughs weve shared

Will never forget these years

People are capable at anytime in their lives of doing what they dream of

Nehal DixitStop measuring your degree of

productivity and replace it by degree ofpresence

Conquer yourself not the world once you succeed in doing it the world will be all yours

Be who you are and say what you feel because in the end those who matter dont mind

and those who mind dont matter

Having charismatic and vibrant self is key tohappiness optimism and being systematic is

a way to success

When it rains look for rainbows when its dark look for stars

Believe you can and youre halfway there Fall in love with the process of becoming thevery best version of yourself

Rise above the storm and you will find sunshine

Do not change the path in front of your dreamswhatever happens do not break those dreams in yourmind You will find difficulties on every step but do

not leave the ground just to choose the stars

If people are trying to pull you down then you arealready better than them Just focus on your energies and

keep doing your best You will find happiness ) One more thing IF YOU DONT BETYOU CANT

WIN

May every sunrise bring you hopeMay every sunset bring you peace

If you dont believe in yourself thenno one is going to believe in you So

Believe in Yourself

Be who you are and say what you feelbecause those who mind donrsquot matter and

those who matter donrsquot mind

Success is liking yourself liking what you do and liking how you do it

Happiness is a by-product of an effort to make someone else happy

If you are not willing to risk the unusual you will have to settle for the ordinary

Always keep it clean simple and precise

Hustle until you no longer have to introduce yourself

Dream it Wish it Do it

There are no limits to what you can accomplish except the limits you place

on your own thinking

The greatness of humanity is not in being human but in being humane

You will be exactly as happy as you decide

One thing to learn from the sun is thatwhenever a cloud tries to hinder itslight it finds its own path to shine

Excellence is not achieved - it is aspired to and trekked towards The tougher the trek

the better the views

I think the day we figure out everythingabout our lives is the day we die

Finding your magic can be scary but owning it will be EUPHORIA

An approximate answer to the right problem is worth a good deal more than

an exact answer to an approximate problem

Our greatest weakness lies in giving up The most certain way to succeed is always to try just one more time

The aim is to live happily heal throughevery situation and learn everything new

with every step taken

Believe in progress not perfection

Every moment is a fresh beginning

Small steps in the right direction can turn out to be the biggest steps of your life

Croxton and Cowden defines statistics as the science of collection presentation analysis andinterpretation of numerical data Progressively the Statistics subject come to be more and more popular and its application hasbecome more extensive Now almost there is no field of human activity where statistics are not usedNowadays it is used by economists businessmen scientists administrators etc To be more preciseabout the importance of statistics in our life lets discuss some astonishing reasons that we haveoverheard on several occasions

1 Everyone lookout for weather forecasting Have you ever thought how do you acquire thatinformation There are some computer models constructed on the basis of statistical conceptsThese computer models relate past weather with the present weather and predict future weather

2 Statistics frequently used by the researchers They use their statistical skills to collect therelevant data Otherwise it results in a loss of money time and data

3 What do you understand by insurance Everyone has some kind of insurance whether it ismedical home or any other insurance Several businesses use statistical models based on anindividual application to calculate the risk of giving insurance Life tables are indispensable for thesolution of all questions relating to the duration of human life 4 Statistic plays significant role in financial market Statistics are the key of how traders andbusinessmen invest and make money

5 Statistics play a big role in the medical field For testing the efficacy of a manufacturing druginjection or medicine for controlling curing specific ailments most of the applications of medicalfields lies in using the tests of significance (more precisely studentrsquos t-test) The testing of theeffectiveness of a medicine by the manufacturing concern is a must since only after theeffectiveness of the medicine is proven by the sound statistical techniques that it will venture tomanufacture it on a large scale and bring it out in the market By statistical techniques (t and Fsignificance tests) comparative study of different medicines can also be made

(18)

6 In industry Statistical techniques are used in quality testing Companies manufacture manyproducts on a daily basis and every company make sure that they sell the best quality items Butcompanies cannot test all the products so they use sampling techniques which are a very importantaspect of statistical theory 7 We make variety of predictions in daily life For examples we keep the alarm for the morningwhen we donrsquot know that we will be alive in the morning or not Here we use statistics basics to makepredictions

8 Using statistics concepts doctors predict disease Suppose a survey shows that 75-80people have cancer and not able to find the reason Where the statistics is involved there you canhave a better idea on how the cancer may affect your body

9 News reporter makes a prediction of winner for elections based on political campaigns Herestatistics play a very important role to find out who will form the government 10 Statistics data allow us to collect the information around the world The internet is a devisewhich help us to collect the information The fundamental behind the internet is based on statisticsand mathematics concepts 11 Not only in peace times but in war times also statistics can be used very effectively It ispractically not possible to face a war without the factual data concerning the military strength of theenemy in terms of manpower military tanks war aeroplanes missiles ammunition etc

BIOSTATISTICS is the application of statisticalmethods in studies in biology andencompasses the design of experiments thecollection of data from them and the analysisand interpretation of data The data comes froma wide range of sources including genomicstudies experiments with cells and organismsand clinical trials Biostatistics is the applicationof statistical principles to questions andproblems in medicine public health or biologyOne can imagine that it might be of interest tocharacterize a given population with respect tothe proportion who has asthma and it wouldalso be important to estimate the magnitude ofthese problems over time or perhaps in differentlocations Statistics is a science of compilingclassifying and tabulating numerical data andexpressing the results in a mathematical andgraphical form whereas biostatistics is thebranch of statistics concerned with themathematical facts and data related to biologicalevents

Francis Galton created the statistical conceptcorrelation Sir Galton for the first time usedstatistical tools to study differences amonghuman population He also invented the use ofquestionnaires surveys for collecting data onhuman communities Biostatistics are the eventand application of statistical method to a goodrange of topic in biology It encompasses theplanning of biological experiments the gatheringand analysis of knowledge from thoseexperiments and therefore the interpretation ofthe results Biostatistics is sometimesdistinguished from the field of biometry basedupon whether applications are in the healthsciences (bio statistics) or in broader biology(biometry example agriculture ecology wildlifebiology) More and more things are nowmeasured quantitatively in medicine and publichealth There is a great deal of inherent variationin most biological processes Public health andmedicine are becoming increasingly quantitative

(20)

It is used to test whether the differencebetween two populations is real or by chanceoccurrence to study the correlation betweenattributes in the same population and toevaluate the achievements of public healthprograms Biostatistics has applications in allthe branches of life sciences such as formapping chromosomes for studying thebehavior of genes in a population and forconduction of drug treatment trails etcBiostatistics deals with data arising frombiomedical research It remains a very activeresearch area with complicated time-to-eventdata and missing data emerging in applicationareas including medicine geneticsneuroscience and engineering Recentadvances in biomedical research have creatednew challenges and opportunities forstatisticians and data scientists For examplebig data analysis precision medicine artificialintelligence causal inference and other newresearch fields have inspired data scientists todevelop modern statistical methods andinnovative inference procedures

As technology progresses the physicianencounters more and more quantitative ratherthan descriptive information In one sensestatistics is the language of assembling andhandling quantitative material Even if onersquosconcern is only with the results of other peoplersquosmanipulation and assemblage of data it isimportant to achieve some understanding of thislanguage in order to interpret their resultsproperly Statistics pervades the medicalliterature As a consequence of the increasinglyquantitative nature of public health and medicineand its reliance on statistical methodology themedical literature is replete with reports in whichstatistical techniques are used extensivelyBiostatistics is used to determine how diseasesdevelop progress and spread

For example biostatisticians use statistics topredict the behavior of an illness like flu It is usedto help predict the mortality rate the symptomsand even the time of year people might get it

Over 50 years ago there was a subject whichwas unnoticed and mainly focused on the studyand analysis of data Statisticians urgedacademic statistics to transcend its boundariesbeyond the realm of theoretical statistics Morestress was laid on data presentation Datascience is a discipline which is guided bycomputing informatics operation researchmathematics and statistics

Statistics is treated as the most important tool insorting and analysing data It is beneficial ingiving a deeper vision of the data Statisticswidely depends upon experiments and surveysWith the help of descriptive statisticscalculations like mean median etc can bedone on the data On the other hand inferentialstatistics helps in drawing inferences andconclusions from the population Both domainsof statistics play a very important role in DataScience In order to get a structured data andmaking predictions statistical methods and toolsare very essential They are able to carry outmany analytical tasks

Statistical Analysis is the study of surveying agiven set of data and observing patterns andtrends It is used in research fields to createstatistical models for performing certainexperiments on a population

The focus is to gather information from thesmallest quantity of data The experimentsinvolve accurate calculations and therefore giverespective results Statistics forms the base ofData Science It requires optimization of hugedatabases which is achieved with the help ofdifferent statistical tools In todayrsquos data drivenworld Data Science is turning out to be one ofthe most demanded professions Almost all firmsand companies are in search of data scientistsas the data keeps on piling up and the need ofinterpreting analysing and cleaning it is risingThe ultimate aim of Statistics and Data Scienceis to extricate cognizance from large amounts ofdata

Whenever the word lsquobusinessrsquo is heard lsquosalesrsquo isthe word which comes to our mind next and whatexactly assists sales is STATISTICS Donrsquotbelieve me but I am sure after reading the articleyou would all agree to my point too So what doesa businessman do He manufactures and sellsthe goods produced to the public but both ofthese basic functions of the businessman cannotbe transcended without the help of statistics toolssuch as survey statistics driven softwares tocollect and analyse the demand of the customerand to what extent ie the quantity in which it isrequired in order to maximize their total revenueThe graphs and the tables formed ie the statshelp them to know the exact condition of themarket and its inclination so that they could comeout with offers and discounts in order to attractpublic towards their product maximizing theirsales The businessmen who is believed to bevery quick and accurate in decision making is allassisted by statistics at every point fromanalysing their sales profit margins wages of theemployees the improvements required in theproduct the billing counters are all carriedforward with the help of statistical tools Thefinancial resources required for investing in thebusiness are also arranged according to theassistance given by the data analysts Themarketing and advertisement of the products alsoneeds statistics Now you would be thinking how

amp its regular maintenance is all handled bystatistical applications In order to calculate theaverage mean median loss profit and all theother commerce related terms in businessesdealing with large amount of data is all handledby statisticians Statistics also helps inmaintaining employee performancemanagement A manager collects data aboutemployee productivity such as the number oftasks completed or the number of unitsproduced He or she must analyse data to findways in which an employee should improve toachieve maximum productivity Manycompanies also collect data about employeeengagement and happiness on the job whichcan be tracked to not only keep workersmotivated but ensure they dont leave for otherpositions elsewhere This helps in increasingthe efficiency of the employees and also createsa healthy working environment I have listed lotof points to prove the importance of statistics inbusinesses and hope that you will now agree towhat I mentioned in the beginning of the article

Whenever a method of marketing is thought thepercentage of people to get influenced the agegroup to target the kind of offers to be laid downare all done through statistics You might haveheard that now data is the new oil that means lifeis all surrounded with data and for the data andthe demand for its upkeep and analysis the dataanalysts are required and in big organizationswho actually target all age groups and sell allkinds of products on a large scale have a largedatabase not only of the customers but also oftheir n number of employees So an organizationis incomplete without data and where there isdata there is statistics In fact I would say thatan organization isnrsquot an organization if they donot have data and its proper upkeep in such acase the company will surely drain out so thisactually proves how important statistics hasbecome in the business point of view Thebanking sector canrsquot function without statisticsand this banking business forms the backbone ofthe country since all the customers of the bankhave loads of data for a particular bank account

Statistics is the science of learning from dataStatistical knowledge helps an individual to usethe proper methods for collecting data employthe correct analysis and present the resultseffectively Statistical analysis is thus used inalmost all fields to make sense out of the vastamount of data that is available Thus statisticalmethodologies are not only useful in drawingimportant results but also play a significant role inproducing new findings and understanding thework of others One such field which has wideuse of the statistical techniques andmethodologies is the Insurance Sector Insuranceis basically the business of risk as it involves thetransfer of risk from one party to another

The main incoming and outgoing source ofincome in the business of insurance is throughpremiums and claims respectively Manystatistical models are used to model claimsand losses Parameters for these distributionsare estimated using Method of momentMaximum likelihood estimates etc and thenGoodness of fit testis applied to check howwell our distribution fits to the data Timeseries model plays an important role inforecasting future values Statistics is used toanswer the most important questions for theinsurance industry What percentage ofpolicies are expected to payout How muchmoney the company must expect to payout inclaims Different methods of data collectioneither in primary or secondary form are usedto determine the required reserves premiumand future predictions Apart from this manystatistical methods for eg Linear modelmethod which uses regression as the maintool in determining the factors affectingpremiums Loss distribution method in whichhistogram and bar graphs are made tocompare different categories and complexstatistical tools such as Ruin Theory and Run-off triangles are used to develop newproducts absorb and evaluate risk and ruinwhen balancing claims reserves andpremiums Thus statistics plays anirreplaceable role in the life cycle ofinsurance business for both life and non-life insurance

Statistics help in

Measuring the stability of drugs-II) Production of drugs according to demandsIII) Effectiveness of drugsIV) Quality control of drugs V) Marketing of drugs VI) Testing the side effects of the drug with thehelp of data VII) Going through the procedure of approvaland public distribution of drugs

Statistics in developing a drug

A lot of statistics tools are used duringproduction clinical trials and marketing andpublic distribution of drugs-1 Average (mean median and mode) Usedduring experiments like stability testingcombination of chemicals and checking acidity orbasicity of solutions to calculate mean averageresults2 Standard deviation and variance It is ameasure of testing precision Can be used toevaluate precision at various points in a processor to evaluate the precision between two differentmethods of the experiment3 Q test for rejecting data It is used to checkoutliers in data ie to check unusual deviation ina data set to see if it can be statistically rejected

4 Confidence limits It helps in finding theprobability of the true value being within acalculable range It makes use of multiplyingstandard deviation with studentrsquos t-factor thatdetermines the confidence interval of theobservation at the stated confidence level5 t F Chi-square and other tests Helps incomparing the results of two data sets For egside effects of different medication in the samepopulation6 Correlation Helps to detect the relationbetween two attributes of a data for eg howthe effect of a medicine increases or decreasesdue to the change in dosage how increase ordecrease in temperature affects the stability ofcertain medication

Clinical Trials

Clinical trials are research studies that evaluatenew ways to improve treatments and quality oflife for people with disease and in presentscenario global pandemic COVID-19 Resultsfrom Clinical trials help develop

1 New drugsvaccines 2 New diagnostic tools 3 New clinical procedures

Participants volunteer for clinical trials

(28)

In this method of stratified random sampling isused to divide the volunteers into different stratabased on shared attributes or characteristicssuch as gender medical conditions and otherspecifics These stratarsquos are used in differentphases of clinical trials

Clinical trials have 4 phases

Before trial begins volunteers need tounderstand the potential benefits and potentialrisks before participating in clinical trials thatrsquoswhy pre-clinical phase is conducted to test thenew treatment on animals and healthyvolunteers This part comes under descriptivestatistics where we are using the observed(benefits and risks) for further research Phase 1- In this new treatment is tested for thefirst time to know how treatment affects thebody to determine a safe dose range forvaccine and their side effects It involvesrelatively 20-80 volunteers Stats approach-Association analysis is performed to capture thecorrelations between drug therapeuticindications and side-effects In order to achievethis goal we adopted Fishers exact test whichis a widely used approach for measuring thesignificance of the association between twonominal variables For example to test thesignificance of the association between drugtherapeutic indications A and drug side effect B

Phase 2- The study involves how well a newtreatment or combination of treatment goes wellwith certain types of patients It involves up to300 patient volunteers For example out oftotal cancer patients half of the patients areselected randomly and are given cancertreatment along with new vaccine and other halfare given cancer treatment along with standardtreatment of corona virus Now side effects inboth the cases are noted Aim is to determinewhich combination of treatment will have lessside effects Chi- square test is used tocompare the side effects in both the cases Phase 3- In this phase effectiveness of addinga new treatment to the standard treatment isstudied 100-1000 volunteers participate in thisphase Stats approach- Participants arerandomly split into two groups 1st group(treatment group) receives the standardtreatment + new vaccine and 2nd group (controlgroup) receives standard treatment + placebo(a treatment that looks identical to the newtreatment but contains no active ingredient) Inthis phase mean time taken to develop antibodies in both the groups are compared usingZ-test (Test of significance for difference inmeans)

Phase 4- In this phase no volunteers areinvolved researchersrsquo monitor drug safety andeffectiveness It involves optimal usage

gtgt Well-SupportedHaving the experience of using some tools forfree you probably know that it is a challenge toget decent support but thatrsquos not the case withPython Despite the high simplicity there can besituations when you still need help with PythonBeing in widespread use like in industries oracademic areas Python has a broad array ofhelpful libraries with tons of helpful and supportmaterials The great benefit is that all thelibraries are available at no cost

gtgt ScalabilityThis Pythonrsquos feature is closely connected withthe previous option Comparing with otherlanguages like R Java python is much fasterand more scalable Therefore it is good invarious fields that can solve a wide range ofproblems Thatrsquos why many companies havemigrated to Python

A registered clinical psychologist in Honk Kongnamed Zanonia Chiu said - ldquoGoing to school hadbeen a struggle for some children (withdepression) prior to the pandemic but at leastthey had school routines to stick with Now thatschools are closed some lock themselves upinside their rooms for weeks refusing to takeshowers eat or leave their beds For somechildren with depression there will beconsiderable difficulties adjusting back to normallife when college resumesrdquo and according to anonline survey conducted with the study periodfrom April 2020 to May 2020 - Total 531372 and 243 had symptoms of depressionanxiety and stress respectively with varyingseverities (N=727)The conclusion of the surveyindicated that COVID-19 is building psychologicaldistress among vulnerable college students asthey are forced to stay home along withworsening financial situations lifestyle changesfamily situations and time spent on variousactivities

lsquoOnline classrsquo is a term which most of us werenrsquotfamiliar with Before this pandemic we neverthought of getting education at home Covid hasaffected all of our lives In past pursuingeducation meant going to the schoolcollege Butnow the whole scenario has changed Childrenare studying and attending classes from homeJust like there are two sides of a coin onlineclasses also have some advantages anddisadvantages

Starting from the advantages it saves time forboth students and teachers as they donrsquot haveto travel All they have to do is to join throughtheir mobiles or laptops Secondly studentsdonrsquot have to necessarily buy books from theshops like they had to do in offline classesbecause they are given pdfs from which they canstudy Therefore it saves money Third it can beattended from anywhere in the world Unlike inthe offline classes where we had to gather at aparticular place Fourth computer basedpractical can be easily understood as studentscan share their screen with teachers Also it iseasy for teachers to explain a topic with the helpof pictures or animations which can be easilyfound on the internet

Last but not the least Parents can keep an eyeon their children whether they are studyingproperly or not

Apart from advantages it has somedisadvantages too First sitting beside thecomputer or mobile for hours affects the eyesightof both students and teachers Doctors arereporting many cases of eyestrain amongchildren since the online classes have startedSecondly students are becoming lazy as theydonrsquot have to go out of their home Like theproverb lsquoAll work and no play makes Jack a dullboyrsquo is really happening Third students canbunk in the online classes easily As they haveno fear of punishment they learned to disobeyand disrespect teachers Fourth students havebeen given lots of assignments as a result ofwhich most students are copying othersassignments and are not learning anything newFifth it is very difficult to communicate asteachers cannot give attention to each studentLastly it can be concluded that no matter howthe classes are being held a student must bededicated and sincere towards their studiesAfter all onersquos future depends on what they do intheir present

An actuary is a business executive professionally trained in the mathematical sciences Actuariesspecialize in the evaluation of financial riskmdashmost often in the context of life health and casualtyinsurance where they design analyse and refine varied programs to meet the insurance needs ofsociety A growing number of actuaries work in the areas of assetliability management and risk managementSome of these actuaries are employed by investment and consulting firms others are employed byinsurance companies

Actuaries have been called financial architects and social mathematicians because their combinedanalytical and business skills help solve a growing variety of financial and social problems Theactuarial profession is a demanding yet rewarding career choice

In a world bombarded with numerical information informed decisions rely on the ability to separatefact from fiction by applying valid statistical analyses and visualizations Statisticians can providecrucial guidance in determining what information is reliable and which predictions may be trustedThey often help search for clues to the solution of a scientific mystery and sometimes keepinvestigators from being misled by false impressions

Thousands of statisticians work in medicine law agriculture public policy marketing manufacturingengineering and other fields in the social and natural sciences The diversity of applications is anexciting aspect of the field and is one more reason why the demand for well-trained statisticianscontinues to be strong

Contributed by Dr Meenu Goel

The curtain lifts on Bryant Elementary Schools Spring Recorder Recital Ninety third-graders fumble with their instruments take a breath

and blow Their parents braced breathe too

as Hot Crossed Buns emerges a little scattershot -- the Normal Distribution brought to life

By Go Tell Aunt Rhodie the audience

is moved by their sheer pretty-goodness though one kid knocks her music to the floor

and another squeaks to demonstrate

the tail two standard deviations below the mean The curve implies

that somewhere on stage another kid

just played a note so sweet he might shatter Mrs Wedermeyers glasses And if

there are a mother and father who think

that child is theirs may they be forgiven even if the child shining in their eyes

is moving his fingers slightly out of rhythm

even if hes never led the bell curve in his life In consecutive measures of almost unison

its easy to believe these children are musicians

Their parents do so stirred by Ode to Joy they rise to their feet with the final phrase

clapping from the darkened auditorium

at once as one heroically like the parents theyve meant to be

EK NAYA SAFAR

Mubarak ho apko zindgi ka naya safar

Naya hai sheher nai hai dagar

Chut gaye kuch rishte purane

But donrsquot worry yaar mil jayenge naye diwane

Kuch tum jaise khuch tum se alag

So just smile and start a new life

Dosti yaari ko zara side mai rakh ke

Edhar gaur famiye janab

Course toh tumne acha chuna hai

Kuch socha hai ya ese hi liya hai

College mai admission jab hota hai

Toh andar khushi ke fuvare futne lagte hai

Lekin syllabus o dekh kar yeh bhi dagmagane lagte hai

Mana CP paas hai vahi maat ghumte rehna

Varna paper mai cafeacute ki menu sheet hi likhte rehna

Donrsquot take a chill pill coz yaha ki teachers hai thori strict

Just because they want you to be the best

Ab kya kare college ka har din mamuli nahi hota

Aur 9 se 4 sirf parai nahi hoti

Gumo firo esh karo but parna na bhulo

Mana es saal kuch zyada hi speed breakers hai

But the best part is hum sab bhi toh sath hai

PONDERINGAll of humanity is but a set of numbers You and I

are nothing more than a statisticJust think about any decision you had to take

recently No matter your choice you might findyourself ending up only as an infinitesimal

decimal in the final percentage of a statisticianrsquosdiscourse Let me give you an example pertinent

to the world we live in today Say yoursquore arepublican and have to decide whether to wear a

mask or not Naturally your political instinctmight warn you against it However you might

still be inclined to wear one because yoursquoregenuinely scared about what the ldquoliberalsrdquo have

to say about the SARS-COV-2 Now now letrsquos notgo off-topic here I know you might be wondering

what yoursquod do if you were in a Republicanrsquos shoesBut thatrsquos not the point

In the end it seldom matters whether you are arepublican or a liberal especially in situations

like these What matters in the end is if you didgo out without wearing that infuriating

smothering mask And if you contracted thewretched virus because of it If yes hard luck

Yoursquore nothing more than one of the 841 millionpeople who have it Thatrsquos all that people aroundthe world will see Not your gender not your ageand certainly not your political belief Of course

there will be studies about the correlation ofthese factors with the incidence rate of the

infections but thatrsquos another story altogether andnot one possibly as broad as the one we talk

aboutMoreover the correlation must not be

confused with causation Now perhaps thatrsquosa story for another day But think about it thisway whether you go to college or drop out of

high school whether you choose to live ordecide to die no matter the decision no

matter your inclination or choice whetheryou like it or not you will be nothing more

than a statisticIt might sound a bit gloomy to be honestWhen I first thought about it I felt almostinsignificant Like a tiny speck of dust in a

galaxy of stars Alas isnrsquot that all that we arethough

A pale blue dot in an ocean of stars Ourplanet one among millions or perhaps

billions of others All 78 billion of us fightingfor a place in the world knowing full well we

canrsquot all possibly have it It might makeanyone feel overwhelmed but therersquos

something about that that is so challenging itis almost inspiring We all know statistics andwe all know life But the true beauty of life lies

in the ability to defy statistics Only onequestion remains are you up for the

challenge

It wonrsquot be any exaggeration If itrsquos said that tools of statistician are used in almost all fields ofcalculation

Be it research finance sports marketing sales health care or population countingIt is a crucial process behind How we make discoveries in science

Making decisions or claiming predictions It plays a crucial play in all situationsStats is involved everywhere from collection to interpretation From explanation to

presentationStatistics helps avoiding a wide variety of analytical traps By making sure that study follow

apt methods in all aspectsChallenging your own assumptions Or drawing data-based conclusions

Statistics is always there Making things crisp and clear

Donrsquot buy that lottery ticket Donrsquot wish for a fallen wicket

Donrsquot wish to ldquomake itrdquo in a dying world Donrsquot wish for either a boy or a girl

Donrsquot predict vivid sunshine or rain Donrsquot bother to cry or complain

Statistically speaking it may all be in vain If you didnrsquot make it the first time why try

again

And if you donrsquot buy wish try andpredict

Why also bother living the life you claim tohave lived

It always seems impossible until it is done

If it makes you happyit doesnt have to make sense to others

When you cant find the sunshinebe the sunshine

Either you run the day or let the day run you

When you focus on the goodthe good gets better

It takes the same energy to worry as it doesto be positive so use your energy to thinkpositive and positive things will happen

The one thing that doesnt abide by majority rule is a persons conscience

Make happiness a priority and be gentle with yourself in the process

College the best start to unfold lifes beauty

Goodbye to the mistakes weve made remember the laughs weve shared

Will never forget these years

People are capable at anytime in their lives of doing what they dream of

May every sunrise bring you hopeMay every sunset bring you peace

If you dont believe in yourself thenno one is going to believe in you So

Believe in Yourself

Be who you are and say what you feelbecause those who mind donrsquot matter and

those who matter donrsquot mind

Success is liking yourself liking what you do and liking how you do it

Happiness is a by-product of an effort to make someone else happy

If you are not willing to risk the unusual you will have to settle for the ordinary

Always keep it clean simple and precise

Hustle until you no longer have to introduce yourself

Dream it Wish it Do it

There are no limits to what you can accomplish except the limits you place

on your own thinking

The greatness of humanity is not in being human but in being humane

You will be exactly as happy as you decide

One thing to learn from the sun is thatwhenever a cloud tries to hinder itslight it finds its own path to shine

Excellence is not achieved - it is aspired to and trekked towards The tougher the trek

the better the views

I think the day we figure out everythingabout our lives is the day we die

Finding your magic can be scary but owning it will be EUPHORIA

An approximate answer to the right problem is worth a good deal more than

an exact answer to an approximate problem

Our greatest weakness lies in giving up The most certain way to succeed is always to try just one more time

The aim is to live happily heal throughevery situation and learn everything new

with every step taken

Croxton and Cowden defines statistics as the science of collection presentation analysis andinterpretation of numerical data Progressively the Statistics subject come to be more and more popular and its application hasbecome more extensive Now almost there is no field of human activity where statistics are not usedNowadays it is used by economists businessmen scientists administrators etc To be more preciseabout the importance of statistics in our life lets discuss some astonishing reasons that we haveoverheard on several occasions

1 Everyone lookout for weather forecasting Have you ever thought how do you acquire thatinformation There are some computer models constructed on the basis of statistical conceptsThese computer models relate past weather with the present weather and predict future weather

2 Statistics frequently used by the researchers They use their statistical skills to collect therelevant data Otherwise it results in a loss of money time and data

3 What do you understand by insurance Everyone has some kind of insurance whether it ismedical home or any other insurance Several businesses use statistical models based on anindividual application to calculate the risk of giving insurance Life tables are indispensable for thesolution of all questions relating to the duration of human life 4 Statistic plays significant role in financial market Statistics are the key of how traders andbusinessmen invest and make money

5 Statistics play a big role in the medical field For testing the efficacy of a manufacturing druginjection or medicine for controlling curing specific ailments most of the applications of medicalfields lies in using the tests of significance (more precisely studentrsquos t-test) The testing of theeffectiveness of a medicine by the manufacturing concern is a must since only after theeffectiveness of the medicine is proven by the sound statistical techniques that it will venture tomanufacture it on a large scale and bring it out in the market By statistical techniques (t and Fsignificance tests) comparative study of different medicines can also be made

(18)

6 In industry Statistical techniques are used in quality testing Companies manufacture manyproducts on a daily basis and every company make sure that they sell the best quality items Butcompanies cannot test all the products so they use sampling techniques which are a very importantaspect of statistical theory 7 We make variety of predictions in daily life For examples we keep the alarm for the morningwhen we donrsquot know that we will be alive in the morning or not Here we use statistics basics to makepredictions

8 Using statistics concepts doctors predict disease Suppose a survey shows that 75-80people have cancer and not able to find the reason Where the statistics is involved there you canhave a better idea on how the cancer may affect your body

9 News reporter makes a prediction of winner for elections based on political campaigns Herestatistics play a very important role to find out who will form the government 10 Statistics data allow us to collect the information around the world The internet is a devisewhich help us to collect the information The fundamental behind the internet is based on statisticsand mathematics concepts 11 Not only in peace times but in war times also statistics can be used very effectively It ispractically not possible to face a war without the factual data concerning the military strength of theenemy in terms of manpower military tanks war aeroplanes missiles ammunition etc

BIOSTATISTICS is the application of statisticalmethods in studies in biology andencompasses the design of experiments thecollection of data from them and the analysisand interpretation of data The data comes froma wide range of sources including genomicstudies experiments with cells and organismsand clinical trials Biostatistics is the applicationof statistical principles to questions andproblems in medicine public health or biologyOne can imagine that it might be of interest tocharacterize a given population with respect tothe proportion who has asthma and it wouldalso be important to estimate the magnitude ofthese problems over time or perhaps in differentlocations Statistics is a science of compilingclassifying and tabulating numerical data andexpressing the results in a mathematical andgraphical form whereas biostatistics is thebranch of statistics concerned with themathematical facts and data related to biologicalevents

Francis Galton created the statistical conceptcorrelation Sir Galton for the first time usedstatistical tools to study differences amonghuman population He also invented the use ofquestionnaires surveys for collecting data onhuman communities Biostatistics are the eventand application of statistical method to a goodrange of topic in biology It encompasses theplanning of biological experiments the gatheringand analysis of knowledge from thoseexperiments and therefore the interpretation ofthe results Biostatistics is sometimesdistinguished from the field of biometry basedupon whether applications are in the healthsciences (bio statistics) or in broader biology(biometry example agriculture ecology wildlifebiology) More and more things are nowmeasured quantitatively in medicine and publichealth There is a great deal of inherent variationin most biological processes Public health andmedicine are becoming increasingly quantitative

(20)

It is used to test whether the differencebetween two populations is real or by chanceoccurrence to study the correlation betweenattributes in the same population and toevaluate the achievements of public healthprograms Biostatistics has applications in allthe branches of life sciences such as formapping chromosomes for studying thebehavior of genes in a population and forconduction of drug treatment trails etcBiostatistics deals with data arising frombiomedical research It remains a very activeresearch area with complicated time-to-eventdata and missing data emerging in applicationareas including medicine geneticsneuroscience and engineering Recentadvances in biomedical research have creatednew challenges and opportunities forstatisticians and data scientists For examplebig data analysis precision medicine artificialintelligence causal inference and other newresearch fields have inspired data scientists todevelop modern statistical methods andinnovative inference procedures

As technology progresses the physicianencounters more and more quantitative ratherthan descriptive information In one sensestatistics is the language of assembling andhandling quantitative material Even if onersquosconcern is only with the results of other peoplersquosmanipulation and assemblage of data it isimportant to achieve some understanding of thislanguage in order to interpret their resultsproperly Statistics pervades the medicalliterature As a consequence of the increasinglyquantitative nature of public health and medicineand its reliance on statistical methodology themedical literature is replete with reports in whichstatistical techniques are used extensivelyBiostatistics is used to determine how diseasesdevelop progress and spread

For example biostatisticians use statistics topredict the behavior of an illness like flu It is usedto help predict the mortality rate the symptomsand even the time of year people might get it

Over 50 years ago there was a subject whichwas unnoticed and mainly focused on the studyand analysis of data Statisticians urgedacademic statistics to transcend its boundariesbeyond the realm of theoretical statistics Morestress was laid on data presentation Datascience is a discipline which is guided bycomputing informatics operation researchmathematics and statistics

Statistics is treated as the most important tool insorting and analysing data It is beneficial ingiving a deeper vision of the data Statisticswidely depends upon experiments and surveysWith the help of descriptive statisticscalculations like mean median etc can bedone on the data On the other hand inferentialstatistics helps in drawing inferences andconclusions from the population Both domainsof statistics play a very important role in DataScience In order to get a structured data andmaking predictions statistical methods and toolsare very essential They are able to carry outmany analytical tasks

Statistical Analysis is the study of surveying agiven set of data and observing patterns andtrends It is used in research fields to createstatistical models for performing certainexperiments on a population

The focus is to gather information from thesmallest quantity of data The experimentsinvolve accurate calculations and therefore giverespective results Statistics forms the base ofData Science It requires optimization of hugedatabases which is achieved with the help ofdifferent statistical tools In todayrsquos data drivenworld Data Science is turning out to be one ofthe most demanded professions Almost all firmsand companies are in search of data scientistsas the data keeps on piling up and the need ofinterpreting analysing and cleaning it is risingThe ultimate aim of Statistics and Data Scienceis to extricate cognizance from large amounts ofdata

Whenever the word lsquobusinessrsquo is heard lsquosalesrsquo isthe word which comes to our mind next and whatexactly assists sales is STATISTICS Donrsquotbelieve me but I am sure after reading the articleyou would all agree to my point too So what doesa businessman do He manufactures and sellsthe goods produced to the public but both ofthese basic functions of the businessman cannotbe transcended without the help of statistics toolssuch as survey statistics driven softwares tocollect and analyse the demand of the customerand to what extent ie the quantity in which it isrequired in order to maximize their total revenueThe graphs and the tables formed ie the statshelp them to know the exact condition of themarket and its inclination so that they could comeout with offers and discounts in order to attractpublic towards their product maximizing theirsales The businessmen who is believed to bevery quick and accurate in decision making is allassisted by statistics at every point fromanalysing their sales profit margins wages of theemployees the improvements required in theproduct the billing counters are all carriedforward with the help of statistical tools Thefinancial resources required for investing in thebusiness are also arranged according to theassistance given by the data analysts Themarketing and advertisement of the products alsoneeds statistics Now you would be thinking how

amp its regular maintenance is all handled bystatistical applications In order to calculate theaverage mean median loss profit and all theother commerce related terms in businessesdealing with large amount of data is all handledby statisticians Statistics also helps inmaintaining employee performancemanagement A manager collects data aboutemployee productivity such as the number oftasks completed or the number of unitsproduced He or she must analyse data to findways in which an employee should improve toachieve maximum productivity Manycompanies also collect data about employeeengagement and happiness on the job whichcan be tracked to not only keep workersmotivated but ensure they dont leave for otherpositions elsewhere This helps in increasingthe efficiency of the employees and also createsa healthy working environment I have listed lotof points to prove the importance of statistics inbusinesses and hope that you will now agree towhat I mentioned in the beginning of the article

Whenever a method of marketing is thought thepercentage of people to get influenced the agegroup to target the kind of offers to be laid downare all done through statistics You might haveheard that now data is the new oil that means lifeis all surrounded with data and for the data andthe demand for its upkeep and analysis the dataanalysts are required and in big organizationswho actually target all age groups and sell allkinds of products on a large scale have a largedatabase not only of the customers but also oftheir n number of employees So an organizationis incomplete without data and where there isdata there is statistics In fact I would say thatan organization isnrsquot an organization if they donot have data and its proper upkeep in such acase the company will surely drain out so thisactually proves how important statistics hasbecome in the business point of view Thebanking sector canrsquot function without statisticsand this banking business forms the backbone ofthe country since all the customers of the bankhave loads of data for a particular bank account

Statistics is the science of learning from dataStatistical knowledge helps an individual to usethe proper methods for collecting data employthe correct analysis and present the resultseffectively Statistical analysis is thus used inalmost all fields to make sense out of the vastamount of data that is available Thus statisticalmethodologies are not only useful in drawingimportant results but also play a significant role inproducing new findings and understanding thework of others One such field which has wideuse of the statistical techniques andmethodologies is the Insurance Sector Insuranceis basically the business of risk as it involves thetransfer of risk from one party to another

The main incoming and outgoing source ofincome in the business of insurance is throughpremiums and claims respectively Manystatistical models are used to model claimsand losses Parameters for these distributionsare estimated using Method of momentMaximum likelihood estimates etc and thenGoodness of fit testis applied to check howwell our distribution fits to the data Timeseries model plays an important role inforecasting future values Statistics is used toanswer the most important questions for theinsurance industry What percentage ofpolicies are expected to payout How muchmoney the company must expect to payout inclaims Different methods of data collectioneither in primary or secondary form are usedto determine the required reserves premiumand future predictions Apart from this manystatistical methods for eg Linear modelmethod which uses regression as the maintool in determining the factors affectingpremiums Loss distribution method in whichhistogram and bar graphs are made tocompare different categories and complexstatistical tools such as Ruin Theory and Run-off triangles are used to develop newproducts absorb and evaluate risk and ruinwhen balancing claims reserves andpremiums Thus statistics plays anirreplaceable role in the life cycle ofinsurance business for both life and non-life insurance

Statistics help in

Measuring the stability of drugs-II) Production of drugs according to demandsIII) Effectiveness of drugsIV) Quality control of drugs V) Marketing of drugs VI) Testing the side effects of the drug with thehelp of data VII) Going through the procedure of approvaland public distribution of drugs

Statistics in developing a drug

A lot of statistics tools are used duringproduction clinical trials and marketing andpublic distribution of drugs-1 Average (mean median and mode) Usedduring experiments like stability testingcombination of chemicals and checking acidity orbasicity of solutions to calculate mean averageresults2 Standard deviation and variance It is ameasure of testing precision Can be used toevaluate precision at various points in a processor to evaluate the precision between two differentmethods of the experiment3 Q test for rejecting data It is used to checkoutliers in data ie to check unusual deviation ina data set to see if it can be statistically rejected

4 Confidence limits It helps in finding theprobability of the true value being within acalculable range It makes use of multiplyingstandard deviation with studentrsquos t-factor thatdetermines the confidence interval of theobservation at the stated confidence level5 t F Chi-square and other tests Helps incomparing the results of two data sets For egside effects of different medication in the samepopulation6 Correlation Helps to detect the relationbetween two attributes of a data for eg howthe effect of a medicine increases or decreasesdue to the change in dosage how increase ordecrease in temperature affects the stability ofcertain medication

Clinical Trials

Clinical trials are research studies that evaluatenew ways to improve treatments and quality oflife for people with disease and in presentscenario global pandemic COVID-19 Resultsfrom Clinical trials help develop

1 New drugsvaccines 2 New diagnostic tools 3 New clinical procedures

Participants volunteer for clinical trials

(28)

In this method of stratified random sampling isused to divide the volunteers into different stratabased on shared attributes or characteristicssuch as gender medical conditions and otherspecifics These stratarsquos are used in differentphases of clinical trials

Clinical trials have 4 phases

Before trial begins volunteers need tounderstand the potential benefits and potentialrisks before participating in clinical trials thatrsquoswhy pre-clinical phase is conducted to test thenew treatment on animals and healthyvolunteers This part comes under descriptivestatistics where we are using the observed(benefits and risks) for further research Phase 1- In this new treatment is tested for thefirst time to know how treatment affects thebody to determine a safe dose range forvaccine and their side effects It involvesrelatively 20-80 volunteers Stats approach-Association analysis is performed to capture thecorrelations between drug therapeuticindications and side-effects In order to achievethis goal we adopted Fishers exact test whichis a widely used approach for measuring thesignificance of the association between twonominal variables For example to test thesignificance of the association between drugtherapeutic indications A and drug side effect B

Phase 2- The study involves how well a newtreatment or combination of treatment goes wellwith certain types of patients It involves up to300 patient volunteers For example out oftotal cancer patients half of the patients areselected randomly and are given cancertreatment along with new vaccine and other halfare given cancer treatment along with standardtreatment of corona virus Now side effects inboth the cases are noted Aim is to determinewhich combination of treatment will have lessside effects Chi- square test is used tocompare the side effects in both the cases Phase 3- In this phase effectiveness of addinga new treatment to the standard treatment isstudied 100-1000 volunteers participate in thisphase Stats approach- Participants arerandomly split into two groups 1st group(treatment group) receives the standardtreatment + new vaccine and 2nd group (controlgroup) receives standard treatment + placebo(a treatment that looks identical to the newtreatment but contains no active ingredient) Inthis phase mean time taken to develop antibodies in both the groups are compared usingZ-test (Test of significance for difference inmeans)

Phase 4- In this phase no volunteers areinvolved researchersrsquo monitor drug safety andeffectiveness It involves optimal usage

Let me tell you why Python is a number oneoption for data analysis-

By Tanisha Gupta ( 3rd Year )

gtgt Easy to LearnBeing involved in development for web servicesmobile apps as well as coding Yes it is one ofthe most famous language characteristics Morethan that a low and thus fast learning curve isthe next pre-eminence of Python whencomparing it with older languages on offer

gtgt Well-SupportedHaving the experience of using some tools forfree you probably know that it is a challenge toget decent support but thatrsquos not the case withPython Despite the high simplicity there can besituations when you still need help with PythonBeing in widespread use like in industries oracademic areas Python has a broad array ofhelpful libraries with tons of helpful and supportmaterials The great benefit is that all thelibraries are available at no cost

gtgt ScalabilityThis Pythonrsquos feature is closely connected withthe previous option Comparing with otherlanguages like R Java python is much fasterand more scalable Therefore it is good invarious fields that can solve a wide range ofproblems Thatrsquos why many companies havemigrated to Python

ldquoCollege life is known as one of the most memorable years of astudentrsquos life exposing them to new experiences like meeting new

people learning new things exploring places etcrdquo

A registered clinical psychologist in Honk Kongnamed Zanonia Chiu said - ldquoGoing to school hadbeen a struggle for some children (withdepression) prior to the pandemic but at leastthey had school routines to stick with Now thatschools are closed some lock themselves upinside their rooms for weeks refusing to takeshowers eat or leave their beds For somechildren with depression there will beconsiderable difficulties adjusting back to normallife when college resumesrdquo and according to anonline survey conducted with the study periodfrom April 2020 to May 2020 - Total 531372 and 243 had symptoms of depressionanxiety and stress respectively with varyingseverities (N=727)The conclusion of the surveyindicated that COVID-19 is building psychologicaldistress among vulnerable college students asthey are forced to stay home along withworsening financial situations lifestyle changesfamily situations and time spent on variousactivities

Sounds so interesting and happening right Itis true indeed but along with stressful timeaside Along with the perks of enjoyingfreedom more than ever there comesacademic pressure tasks of separation fromfamilies career building futureresponsibilities etc Boarding on with thecollege life is a stressful time for manystudents thereby affecting their mental healthMental health problems are very commonamong college students and have been anincreasing concern However the COVID-19pandemic situation has brought this vulnerablepopulation into renewed focus Following thepandemic schools colleges offices andalmost every place that involved humaninteraction was shut It is important to note thatcollegeschool or even a normal routine areimportant coping mechanisms for youngpeople with mental health issues and wheneverything is shut down they lose an anchor inlife and their symptoms could relapse

Mental health among students is a big concernhowever ldquoUNTREATEDrdquo mental illnesses are amuch bigger and exponentially growingconcern Reaching out is an important step formental health issues to be addressed andtreated but reach out to who This is the pointwhere our institution should take over Collegesplay a big role in this stage Colleges doaddress this issue through means of orientationsessions and workshops but there is still a needto address mental health more directly Themethods to address mental health issuesshould be accessible feasible and affordablefor the students For example at NorthwesternUniversity student feedback led orientationenabled organizers to shift their focus fromexpert speakers to student testimonials Meansto address the issue vary from traditionalpresentations and panel discussions to roleplays small group discussions etc Herestudents learn how to recognize mental illnesssymptoms where to find resources andsupport and how to talk to friends who mightbe struggling

The findings of this study highlighted theurgent need to develop interventions andpreventive strategies to address the mentalhealth of college students Another InterviewSurvey study conducted by the Journal ofMedical Internet Research highlighted that of195 students 138 (71) indicated increasedstress and anxiety due to the COVID-19outbreak Multiple stressors were identified thatcontributed to the increased levels of stressanxiety and depressive thoughts amongstudents These included fear and worry abouttheir own health and of their loved ones(177195 91 reported negative impacts ofthe pandemic) difficulty in concentrating(173195 89) disruptions to sleepingpatterns (168195 86) decreased socialinteractions due to physical distancing(167195 86) and increased concerns onacademic performance (159195 82) Tocope with stress and anxiety participants havesought support from others and helpedthemselves by adopting either negative orpositive coping mechanisms It is important toknow that creating awareness about any issueis never enough action is what is neededTaking leave from workschool because of a fluor a fracture is acceptable and might even helpin the process of cure and healing howevertaking time off because of stress from a mentalillness such as anxiety or depressionunfortunately is not

lsquoOnline classrsquo is a term which most of us werenrsquotfamiliar with Before this pandemic we neverthought of getting education at home Covid hasaffected all of our lives In past pursuingeducation meant going to the schoolcollege Butnow the whole scenario has changed Childrenare studying and attending classes from homeJust like there are two sides of a coin onlineclasses also have some advantages anddisadvantages

Starting from the advantages it saves time forboth students and teachers as they donrsquot haveto travel All they have to do is to join throughtheir mobiles or laptops Secondly studentsdonrsquot have to necessarily buy books from theshops like they had to do in offline classesbecause they are given pdfs from which they canstudy Therefore it saves money Third it can beattended from anywhere in the world Unlike inthe offline classes where we had to gather at aparticular place Fourth computer basedpractical can be easily understood as studentscan share their screen with teachers Also it iseasy for teachers to explain a topic with the helpof pictures or animations which can be easilyfound on the internet

Last but not the least Parents can keep an eyeon their children whether they are studyingproperly or not

Apart from advantages it has somedisadvantages too First sitting beside thecomputer or mobile for hours affects the eyesightof both students and teachers Doctors arereporting many cases of eyestrain amongchildren since the online classes have startedSecondly students are becoming lazy as theydonrsquot have to go out of their home Like theproverb lsquoAll work and no play makes Jack a dullboyrsquo is really happening Third students canbunk in the online classes easily As they haveno fear of punishment they learned to disobeyand disrespect teachers Fourth students havebeen given lots of assignments as a result ofwhich most students are copying othersassignments and are not learning anything newFifth it is very difficult to communicate asteachers cannot give attention to each studentLastly it can be concluded that no matter howthe classes are being held a student must bededicated and sincere towards their studiesAfter all onersquos future depends on what they do intheir present

An actuary is a business executive professionally trained in the mathematical sciences Actuariesspecialize in the evaluation of financial riskmdashmost often in the context of life health and casualtyinsurance where they design analyse and refine varied programs to meet the insurance needs ofsociety A growing number of actuaries work in the areas of assetliability management and risk managementSome of these actuaries are employed by investment and consulting firms others are employed byinsurance companies

Actuaries have been called financial architects and social mathematicians because their combinedanalytical and business skills help solve a growing variety of financial and social problems Theactuarial profession is a demanding yet rewarding career choice

In a world bombarded with numerical information informed decisions rely on the ability to separatefact from fiction by applying valid statistical analyses and visualizations Statisticians can providecrucial guidance in determining what information is reliable and which predictions may be trustedThey often help search for clues to the solution of a scientific mystery and sometimes keepinvestigators from being misled by false impressions

Thousands of statisticians work in medicine law agriculture public policy marketing manufacturingengineering and other fields in the social and natural sciences The diversity of applications is anexciting aspect of the field and is one more reason why the demand for well-trained statisticianscontinues to be strong

Poetry

Contributed by Dr Komal Goel

by Anubis the Philosomancer

(41)

Contributed by Dr Meenu Goel

The curtain lifts on Bryant Elementary Schools Spring Recorder Recital Ninety third-graders fumble with their instruments take a breath

and blow Their parents braced breathe too

as Hot Crossed Buns emerges a little scattershot -- the Normal Distribution brought to life

By Go Tell Aunt Rhodie the audience

is moved by their sheer pretty-goodness though one kid knocks her music to the floor

and another squeaks to demonstrate

the tail two standard deviations below the mean The curve implies

that somewhere on stage another kid

just played a note so sweet he might shatter Mrs Wedermeyers glasses And if

there are a mother and father who think

that child is theirs may they be forgiven even if the child shining in their eyes

is moving his fingers slightly out of rhythm

even if hes never led the bell curve in his life In consecutive measures of almost unison

its easy to believe these children are musicians

Their parents do so stirred by Ode to Joy they rise to their feet with the final phrase

clapping from the darkened auditorium

at once as one heroically like the parents theyve meant to be

EK NAYA SAFAR

Mubarak ho apko zindgi ka naya safar

Naya hai sheher nai hai dagar

Chut gaye kuch rishte purane

But donrsquot worry yaar mil jayenge naye diwane

Kuch tum jaise khuch tum se alag

So just smile and start a new life

Dosti yaari ko zara side mai rakh ke

Edhar gaur famiye janab

Course toh tumne acha chuna hai

Kuch socha hai ya ese hi liya hai

College mai admission jab hota hai

Toh andar khushi ke fuvare futne lagte hai

Lekin syllabus o dekh kar yeh bhi dagmagane lagte hai

Mana CP paas hai vahi maat ghumte rehna

Varna paper mai cafeacute ki menu sheet hi likhte rehna

Donrsquot take a chill pill coz yaha ki teachers hai thori strict

Just because they want you to be the best

Ab kya kare college ka har din mamuli nahi hota

Aur 9 se 4 sirf parai nahi hoti

Gumo firo esh karo but parna na bhulo

Mana es saal kuch zyada hi speed breakers hai

But the best part is hum sab bhi toh sath hai

PONDERINGAll of humanity is but a set of numbers You and I

are nothing more than a statisticJust think about any decision you had to take

recently No matter your choice you might findyourself ending up only as an infinitesimal

decimal in the final percentage of a statisticianrsquosdiscourse Let me give you an example pertinent

to the world we live in today Say yoursquore arepublican and have to decide whether to wear a

mask or not Naturally your political instinctmight warn you against it However you might

still be inclined to wear one because yoursquoregenuinely scared about what the ldquoliberalsrdquo have

to say about the SARS-COV-2 Now now letrsquos notgo off-topic here I know you might be wondering

what yoursquod do if you were in a Republicanrsquos shoesBut thatrsquos not the point

In the end it seldom matters whether you are arepublican or a liberal especially in situations

like these What matters in the end is if you didgo out without wearing that infuriating

smothering mask And if you contracted thewretched virus because of it If yes hard luck

Yoursquore nothing more than one of the 841 millionpeople who have it Thatrsquos all that people aroundthe world will see Not your gender not your ageand certainly not your political belief Of course

there will be studies about the correlation ofthese factors with the incidence rate of the

infections but thatrsquos another story altogether andnot one possibly as broad as the one we talk

aboutMoreover the correlation must not be

confused with causation Now perhaps thatrsquosa story for another day But think about it thisway whether you go to college or drop out of

high school whether you choose to live ordecide to die no matter the decision no

matter your inclination or choice whetheryou like it or not you will be nothing more

than a statisticIt might sound a bit gloomy to be honestWhen I first thought about it I felt almostinsignificant Like a tiny speck of dust in a

galaxy of stars Alas isnrsquot that all that we arethough

A pale blue dot in an ocean of stars Ourplanet one among millions or perhaps

billions of others All 78 billion of us fightingfor a place in the world knowing full well we

canrsquot all possibly have it It might makeanyone feel overwhelmed but therersquos

something about that that is so challenging itis almost inspiring We all know statistics andwe all know life But the true beauty of life lies

in the ability to defy statistics Only onequestion remains are you up for the

challenge

It wonrsquot be any exaggeration If itrsquos said that tools of statistician are used in almost all fields ofcalculation

Be it research finance sports marketing sales health care or population countingIt is a crucial process behind How we make discoveries in science

Making decisions or claiming predictions It plays a crucial play in all situationsStats is involved everywhere from collection to interpretation From explanation to

presentationStatistics helps avoiding a wide variety of analytical traps By making sure that study follow

apt methods in all aspectsChallenging your own assumptions Or drawing data-based conclusions

It always seems impossible until it is done

If it makes you happyit doesnt have to make sense to others

When you cant find the sunshinebe the sunshine

Either you run the day or let the day run you

When you focus on the goodthe good gets better

It takes the same energy to worry as it doesto be positive so use your energy to thinkpositive and positive things will happen

The one thing that doesnt abide by majority rule is a persons conscience

Make happiness a priority and be gentle with yourself in the process

College the best start to unfold lifes beauty

Goodbye to the mistakes weve made remember the laughs weve shared

Will never forget these years

People are capable at anytime in their lives of doing what they dream of

those who matter donrsquot mind

Success is liking yourself liking what you do and liking how you do it

Happiness is a by-product of an effort to make someone else happy

If you are not willing to risk the unusual you will have to settle for the ordinary

Always keep it clean simple and precise

Hustle until you no longer have to introduce yourself

Croxton and Cowden defines statistics as the science of collection presentation analysis andinterpretation of numerical data Progressively the Statistics subject come to be more and more popular and its application hasbecome more extensive Now almost there is no field of human activity where statistics are not usedNowadays it is used by economists businessmen scientists administrators etc To be more preciseabout the importance of statistics in our life lets discuss some astonishing reasons that we haveoverheard on several occasions

1 Everyone lookout for weather forecasting Have you ever thought how do you acquire thatinformation There are some computer models constructed on the basis of statistical conceptsThese computer models relate past weather with the present weather and predict future weather

2 Statistics frequently used by the researchers They use their statistical skills to collect therelevant data Otherwise it results in a loss of money time and data

3 What do you understand by insurance Everyone has some kind of insurance whether it ismedical home or any other insurance Several businesses use statistical models based on anindividual application to calculate the risk of giving insurance Life tables are indispensable for thesolution of all questions relating to the duration of human life 4 Statistic plays significant role in financial market Statistics are the key of how traders andbusinessmen invest and make money

5 Statistics play a big role in the medical field For testing the efficacy of a manufacturing druginjection or medicine for controlling curing specific ailments most of the applications of medicalfields lies in using the tests of significance (more precisely studentrsquos t-test) The testing of theeffectiveness of a medicine by the manufacturing concern is a must since only after theeffectiveness of the medicine is proven by the sound statistical techniques that it will venture tomanufacture it on a large scale and bring it out in the market By statistical techniques (t and Fsignificance tests) comparative study of different medicines can also be made

(18)

6 In industry Statistical techniques are used in quality testing Companies manufacture manyproducts on a daily basis and every company make sure that they sell the best quality items Butcompanies cannot test all the products so they use sampling techniques which are a very importantaspect of statistical theory 7 We make variety of predictions in daily life For examples we keep the alarm for the morningwhen we donrsquot know that we will be alive in the morning or not Here we use statistics basics to makepredictions

8 Using statistics concepts doctors predict disease Suppose a survey shows that 75-80people have cancer and not able to find the reason Where the statistics is involved there you canhave a better idea on how the cancer may affect your body

9 News reporter makes a prediction of winner for elections based on political campaigns Herestatistics play a very important role to find out who will form the government 10 Statistics data allow us to collect the information around the world The internet is a devisewhich help us to collect the information The fundamental behind the internet is based on statisticsand mathematics concepts 11 Not only in peace times but in war times also statistics can be used very effectively It ispractically not possible to face a war without the factual data concerning the military strength of theenemy in terms of manpower military tanks war aeroplanes missiles ammunition etc

BIOSTATISTICS is the application of statisticalmethods in studies in biology andencompasses the design of experiments thecollection of data from them and the analysisand interpretation of data The data comes froma wide range of sources including genomicstudies experiments with cells and organismsand clinical trials Biostatistics is the applicationof statistical principles to questions andproblems in medicine public health or biologyOne can imagine that it might be of interest tocharacterize a given population with respect tothe proportion who has asthma and it wouldalso be important to estimate the magnitude ofthese problems over time or perhaps in differentlocations Statistics is a science of compilingclassifying and tabulating numerical data andexpressing the results in a mathematical andgraphical form whereas biostatistics is thebranch of statistics concerned with themathematical facts and data related to biologicalevents

Francis Galton created the statistical conceptcorrelation Sir Galton for the first time usedstatistical tools to study differences amonghuman population He also invented the use ofquestionnaires surveys for collecting data onhuman communities Biostatistics are the eventand application of statistical method to a goodrange of topic in biology It encompasses theplanning of biological experiments the gatheringand analysis of knowledge from thoseexperiments and therefore the interpretation ofthe results Biostatistics is sometimesdistinguished from the field of biometry basedupon whether applications are in the healthsciences (bio statistics) or in broader biology(biometry example agriculture ecology wildlifebiology) More and more things are nowmeasured quantitatively in medicine and publichealth There is a great deal of inherent variationin most biological processes Public health andmedicine are becoming increasingly quantitative

(20)

It is used to test whether the differencebetween two populations is real or by chanceoccurrence to study the correlation betweenattributes in the same population and toevaluate the achievements of public healthprograms Biostatistics has applications in allthe branches of life sciences such as formapping chromosomes for studying thebehavior of genes in a population and forconduction of drug treatment trails etcBiostatistics deals with data arising frombiomedical research It remains a very activeresearch area with complicated time-to-eventdata and missing data emerging in applicationareas including medicine geneticsneuroscience and engineering Recentadvances in biomedical research have creatednew challenges and opportunities forstatisticians and data scientists For examplebig data analysis precision medicine artificialintelligence causal inference and other newresearch fields have inspired data scientists todevelop modern statistical methods andinnovative inference procedures

As technology progresses the physicianencounters more and more quantitative ratherthan descriptive information In one sensestatistics is the language of assembling andhandling quantitative material Even if onersquosconcern is only with the results of other peoplersquosmanipulation and assemblage of data it isimportant to achieve some understanding of thislanguage in order to interpret their resultsproperly Statistics pervades the medicalliterature As a consequence of the increasinglyquantitative nature of public health and medicineand its reliance on statistical methodology themedical literature is replete with reports in whichstatistical techniques are used extensivelyBiostatistics is used to determine how diseasesdevelop progress and spread

For example biostatisticians use statistics topredict the behavior of an illness like flu It is usedto help predict the mortality rate the symptomsand even the time of year people might get it

Over 50 years ago there was a subject whichwas unnoticed and mainly focused on the studyand analysis of data Statisticians urgedacademic statistics to transcend its boundariesbeyond the realm of theoretical statistics Morestress was laid on data presentation Datascience is a discipline which is guided bycomputing informatics operation researchmathematics and statistics

Statistics is treated as the most important tool insorting and analysing data It is beneficial ingiving a deeper vision of the data Statisticswidely depends upon experiments and surveysWith the help of descriptive statisticscalculations like mean median etc can bedone on the data On the other hand inferentialstatistics helps in drawing inferences andconclusions from the population Both domainsof statistics play a very important role in DataScience In order to get a structured data andmaking predictions statistical methods and toolsare very essential They are able to carry outmany analytical tasks

Statistical Analysis is the study of surveying agiven set of data and observing patterns andtrends It is used in research fields to createstatistical models for performing certainexperiments on a population

The focus is to gather information from thesmallest quantity of data The experimentsinvolve accurate calculations and therefore giverespective results Statistics forms the base ofData Science It requires optimization of hugedatabases which is achieved with the help ofdifferent statistical tools In todayrsquos data drivenworld Data Science is turning out to be one ofthe most demanded professions Almost all firmsand companies are in search of data scientistsas the data keeps on piling up and the need ofinterpreting analysing and cleaning it is risingThe ultimate aim of Statistics and Data Scienceis to extricate cognizance from large amounts ofdata

Whenever the word lsquobusinessrsquo is heard lsquosalesrsquo isthe word which comes to our mind next and whatexactly assists sales is STATISTICS Donrsquotbelieve me but I am sure after reading the articleyou would all agree to my point too So what doesa businessman do He manufactures and sellsthe goods produced to the public but both ofthese basic functions of the businessman cannotbe transcended without the help of statistics toolssuch as survey statistics driven softwares tocollect and analyse the demand of the customerand to what extent ie the quantity in which it isrequired in order to maximize their total revenueThe graphs and the tables formed ie the statshelp them to know the exact condition of themarket and its inclination so that they could comeout with offers and discounts in order to attractpublic towards their product maximizing theirsales The businessmen who is believed to bevery quick and accurate in decision making is allassisted by statistics at every point fromanalysing their sales profit margins wages of theemployees the improvements required in theproduct the billing counters are all carriedforward with the help of statistical tools Thefinancial resources required for investing in thebusiness are also arranged according to theassistance given by the data analysts Themarketing and advertisement of the products alsoneeds statistics Now you would be thinking how

amp its regular maintenance is all handled bystatistical applications In order to calculate theaverage mean median loss profit and all theother commerce related terms in businessesdealing with large amount of data is all handledby statisticians Statistics also helps inmaintaining employee performancemanagement A manager collects data aboutemployee productivity such as the number oftasks completed or the number of unitsproduced He or she must analyse data to findways in which an employee should improve toachieve maximum productivity Manycompanies also collect data about employeeengagement and happiness on the job whichcan be tracked to not only keep workersmotivated but ensure they dont leave for otherpositions elsewhere This helps in increasingthe efficiency of the employees and also createsa healthy working environment I have listed lotof points to prove the importance of statistics inbusinesses and hope that you will now agree towhat I mentioned in the beginning of the article

Whenever a method of marketing is thought thepercentage of people to get influenced the agegroup to target the kind of offers to be laid downare all done through statistics You might haveheard that now data is the new oil that means lifeis all surrounded with data and for the data andthe demand for its upkeep and analysis the dataanalysts are required and in big organizationswho actually target all age groups and sell allkinds of products on a large scale have a largedatabase not only of the customers but also oftheir n number of employees So an organizationis incomplete without data and where there isdata there is statistics In fact I would say thatan organization isnrsquot an organization if they donot have data and its proper upkeep in such acase the company will surely drain out so thisactually proves how important statistics hasbecome in the business point of view Thebanking sector canrsquot function without statisticsand this banking business forms the backbone ofthe country since all the customers of the bankhave loads of data for a particular bank account

Statistics is the science of learning from dataStatistical knowledge helps an individual to usethe proper methods for collecting data employthe correct analysis and present the resultseffectively Statistical analysis is thus used inalmost all fields to make sense out of the vastamount of data that is available Thus statisticalmethodologies are not only useful in drawingimportant results but also play a significant role inproducing new findings and understanding thework of others One such field which has wideuse of the statistical techniques andmethodologies is the Insurance Sector Insuranceis basically the business of risk as it involves thetransfer of risk from one party to another

The main incoming and outgoing source ofincome in the business of insurance is throughpremiums and claims respectively Manystatistical models are used to model claimsand losses Parameters for these distributionsare estimated using Method of momentMaximum likelihood estimates etc and thenGoodness of fit testis applied to check howwell our distribution fits to the data Timeseries model plays an important role inforecasting future values Statistics is used toanswer the most important questions for theinsurance industry What percentage ofpolicies are expected to payout How muchmoney the company must expect to payout inclaims Different methods of data collectioneither in primary or secondary form are usedto determine the required reserves premiumand future predictions Apart from this manystatistical methods for eg Linear modelmethod which uses regression as the maintool in determining the factors affectingpremiums Loss distribution method in whichhistogram and bar graphs are made tocompare different categories and complexstatistical tools such as Ruin Theory and Run-off triangles are used to develop newproducts absorb and evaluate risk and ruinwhen balancing claims reserves andpremiums Thus statistics plays anirreplaceable role in the life cycle ofinsurance business for both life and non-life insurance

Statistics help in

Measuring the stability of drugs-II) Production of drugs according to demandsIII) Effectiveness of drugsIV) Quality control of drugs V) Marketing of drugs VI) Testing the side effects of the drug with thehelp of data VII) Going through the procedure of approvaland public distribution of drugs

Statistics in developing a drug

A lot of statistics tools are used duringproduction clinical trials and marketing andpublic distribution of drugs-1 Average (mean median and mode) Usedduring experiments like stability testingcombination of chemicals and checking acidity orbasicity of solutions to calculate mean averageresults2 Standard deviation and variance It is ameasure of testing precision Can be used toevaluate precision at various points in a processor to evaluate the precision between two differentmethods of the experiment3 Q test for rejecting data It is used to checkoutliers in data ie to check unusual deviation ina data set to see if it can be statistically rejected

4 Confidence limits It helps in finding theprobability of the true value being within acalculable range It makes use of multiplyingstandard deviation with studentrsquos t-factor thatdetermines the confidence interval of theobservation at the stated confidence level5 t F Chi-square and other tests Helps incomparing the results of two data sets For egside effects of different medication in the samepopulation6 Correlation Helps to detect the relationbetween two attributes of a data for eg howthe effect of a medicine increases or decreasesdue to the change in dosage how increase ordecrease in temperature affects the stability ofcertain medication

Clinical Trials

Clinical trials are research studies that evaluatenew ways to improve treatments and quality oflife for people with disease and in presentscenario global pandemic COVID-19 Resultsfrom Clinical trials help develop

1 New drugsvaccines 2 New diagnostic tools 3 New clinical procedures

Participants volunteer for clinical trials

(28)

In this method of stratified random sampling isused to divide the volunteers into different stratabased on shared attributes or characteristicssuch as gender medical conditions and otherspecifics These stratarsquos are used in differentphases of clinical trials

Clinical trials have 4 phases

Before trial begins volunteers need tounderstand the potential benefits and potentialrisks before participating in clinical trials thatrsquoswhy pre-clinical phase is conducted to test thenew treatment on animals and healthyvolunteers This part comes under descriptivestatistics where we are using the observed(benefits and risks) for further research Phase 1- In this new treatment is tested for thefirst time to know how treatment affects thebody to determine a safe dose range forvaccine and their side effects It involvesrelatively 20-80 volunteers Stats approach-Association analysis is performed to capture thecorrelations between drug therapeuticindications and side-effects In order to achievethis goal we adopted Fishers exact test whichis a widely used approach for measuring thesignificance of the association between twonominal variables For example to test thesignificance of the association between drugtherapeutic indications A and drug side effect B

Phase 2- The study involves how well a newtreatment or combination of treatment goes wellwith certain types of patients It involves up to300 patient volunteers For example out oftotal cancer patients half of the patients areselected randomly and are given cancertreatment along with new vaccine and other halfare given cancer treatment along with standardtreatment of corona virus Now side effects inboth the cases are noted Aim is to determinewhich combination of treatment will have lessside effects Chi- square test is used tocompare the side effects in both the cases Phase 3- In this phase effectiveness of addinga new treatment to the standard treatment isstudied 100-1000 volunteers participate in thisphase Stats approach- Participants arerandomly split into two groups 1st group(treatment group) receives the standardtreatment + new vaccine and 2nd group (controlgroup) receives standard treatment + placebo(a treatment that looks identical to the newtreatment but contains no active ingredient) Inthis phase mean time taken to develop antibodies in both the groups are compared usingZ-test (Test of significance for difference inmeans)

Phase 4- In this phase no volunteers areinvolved researchersrsquo monitor drug safety andeffectiveness It involves optimal usage

What comes to your mind when you first hear theword Statisticsrsquo Graphs numbers or lines butwhat if I say that statistics comes with enumerablecareer opportunities The options are endless andthe jobs are just a little But what is the barrier thatholds us from thinking of Statistics as a separatesubject and just an extension of MathematicsMost of us still donrsquot know what statistics is allabout If we tell someone that we are a student ofStatistics they might just think itrsquos not a careeroption Even Google offers with a line explanationof Statistics ldquonumbers that have been collectedin order to provide information aboutsomethingrdquo Statistics is defined as theaggregate of facts affected to a market extent bymultiplicity of causes numerically expressed orestimated according to a reasonable standard ofaccuracy collected in a systematic manner forpredetermined purpose and placed in relation toeach other It is the art of learning from data It isconcerned with learning from data and theiranalysis As a plural it means numerical dataarising in any sphere of human experience thatis mostly unknown sources working togetherwhereas singularly it refers to the collection andinterpretation of numerical data The branchlsquoStatisticsrsquo is broadly divided into two formsDescriptive and Inferential Statistics DescriptiveStatistics involves collection analysation andcharacterization of data It includes graphicalmethods and numeric measures InferentialStatistic involves estimation and conclusion ofdata that has been classified under descriptivestatistics

Statistics is used in a variety of fields likecommerce trade economics chemistryastronomy industry etc Every field comes withone or the other usage of statistics Whether it bethe biggest of MNCrsquos or even a tea stall holdereveryone requires the usage of statistical tools todraw conclusion on what step they need to takenext The levels of profit or losses to obtainmaximum results from minimum resources allthis needs carefully collected data and thendrawing valid inference from it by using variousstatistical tools and techniques Even in day today life the change in prices of goodsvegetables and the trivial yet most importantdecision of whether to buy a new pair of shoes orclothes so that the house budget is not affectedcomes under Statistics The Government usesStatistics at a wide level whether it be forconducting a population census prediction ofoutcome of elections or drawing conclusions onwhether a new law should be passed or not Allthis requires Statistics It eliminates the chancesof uncertainty and predictions by laying the factsand figures required to reach to a correctdecision Even in the outbreak of this globalpandemic Statistics was extensively used be itto know numbers of cases rising daily number ofhospital facilities and medicine required therequirement of vaccines or the recovery ratesand so on The graphs drawn helped the generalpublic to easily understand the prevailingscenario and progress rate Thus Statistics is awide concept that is a helping hand in thisgrowing economy

Codes canrsquot lie but comments can mightseems to be simple yet very meaningful

We all live in the digital era of hightechnologies smart devices and mobilesolutions Data is an essential aspect of anybusiness Itrsquos crucial to gather process andanalyse the data flow and to do that as quicklyand accurately as possible Nowadays the datavolume can be large which makes informationhandling time-consuming and expensive Dueto this precise reason the data science industryis growing at a rapid pace creating newpossibilities as well as opportunities and pythonis one of the solutions to understand andanalyse such big data sets It is a cross-functional language that has lots of advantagesto offer This object-oriented programminglanguage is commonly used to streamline largecomplex data sets Not only this it has a highreadability that helps data analysts to save timeby typing fewer lines of code for accomplishingthe tasks Therefore itrsquos not surprising at allthat it is claimed to be the preferredprogramming language for data science

Let me tell you why Python is a number oneoption for data analysis-

By Tanisha Gupta ( 3rd Year )

gtgt Easy to LearnBeing involved in development for web servicesmobile apps as well as coding Yes it is one ofthe most famous language characteristics Morethan that a low and thus fast learning curve isthe next pre-eminence of Python whencomparing it with older languages on offer

gtgt Well-SupportedHaving the experience of using some tools forfree you probably know that it is a challenge toget decent support but thatrsquos not the case withPython Despite the high simplicity there can besituations when you still need help with PythonBeing in widespread use like in industries oracademic areas Python has a broad array ofhelpful libraries with tons of helpful and supportmaterials The great benefit is that all thelibraries are available at no cost

gtgt ScalabilityThis Pythonrsquos feature is closely connected withthe previous option Comparing with otherlanguages like R Java python is much fasterand more scalable Therefore it is good invarious fields that can solve a wide range ofproblems Thatrsquos why many companies havemigrated to Python

(34)

gtgt Huge Libraries CollectionAs I have already mentioned Python is one ofthe most supported languages nowadays Ithas a long list of totally free libraries availablefor all the users Thatrsquos a key factor that givesa strong push for Python If yoursquore involved inthe field more likely you are acquainted withsuch names as Pandas SciPy Stats ModelsMatplotlib etc libraries that are intensivelyutilized in the data science community Hereyou can easily find a solution needed forhassle-free work without additional expenses

gtgt Graphics and Visualization ToolsItrsquos a well-known fact that visual information ismuch easier to understand operate andremember So here is some good news foryou There is a pack of diverse visualizationoptions available that makes python a must-have tool not only for data analysis but for alldata science You can make the data moreaccessible and easier to use by means ofcreating various charts and graphics as wellas interactive plots Always remember that thesuccess of your business directly depends onthe ability to extract knowledge and insightsfrom data to make effective strategicdecisions stay competitive and makeprogress and Python is the internationallyclaimed programming language to help us inhandling our data in a better manner for avariety of causes

ldquoCollege life is known as one of the most memorable years of astudentrsquos life exposing them to new experiences like meeting new

people learning new things exploring places etcrdquo

A registered clinical psychologist in Honk Kongnamed Zanonia Chiu said - ldquoGoing to school hadbeen a struggle for some children (withdepression) prior to the pandemic but at leastthey had school routines to stick with Now thatschools are closed some lock themselves upinside their rooms for weeks refusing to takeshowers eat or leave their beds For somechildren with depression there will beconsiderable difficulties adjusting back to normallife when college resumesrdquo and according to anonline survey conducted with the study periodfrom April 2020 to May 2020 - Total 531372 and 243 had symptoms of depressionanxiety and stress respectively with varyingseverities (N=727)The conclusion of the surveyindicated that COVID-19 is building psychologicaldistress among vulnerable college students asthey are forced to stay home along withworsening financial situations lifestyle changesfamily situations and time spent on variousactivities

Sounds so interesting and happening right Itis true indeed but along with stressful timeaside Along with the perks of enjoyingfreedom more than ever there comesacademic pressure tasks of separation fromfamilies career building futureresponsibilities etc Boarding on with thecollege life is a stressful time for manystudents thereby affecting their mental healthMental health problems are very commonamong college students and have been anincreasing concern However the COVID-19pandemic situation has brought this vulnerablepopulation into renewed focus Following thepandemic schools colleges offices andalmost every place that involved humaninteraction was shut It is important to note thatcollegeschool or even a normal routine areimportant coping mechanisms for youngpeople with mental health issues and wheneverything is shut down they lose an anchor inlife and their symptoms could relapse

Mental health among students is a big concernhowever ldquoUNTREATEDrdquo mental illnesses are amuch bigger and exponentially growingconcern Reaching out is an important step formental health issues to be addressed andtreated but reach out to who This is the pointwhere our institution should take over Collegesplay a big role in this stage Colleges doaddress this issue through means of orientationsessions and workshops but there is still a needto address mental health more directly Themethods to address mental health issuesshould be accessible feasible and affordablefor the students For example at NorthwesternUniversity student feedback led orientationenabled organizers to shift their focus fromexpert speakers to student testimonials Meansto address the issue vary from traditionalpresentations and panel discussions to roleplays small group discussions etc Herestudents learn how to recognize mental illnesssymptoms where to find resources andsupport and how to talk to friends who mightbe struggling

The findings of this study highlighted theurgent need to develop interventions andpreventive strategies to address the mentalhealth of college students Another InterviewSurvey study conducted by the Journal ofMedical Internet Research highlighted that of195 students 138 (71) indicated increasedstress and anxiety due to the COVID-19outbreak Multiple stressors were identified thatcontributed to the increased levels of stressanxiety and depressive thoughts amongstudents These included fear and worry abouttheir own health and of their loved ones(177195 91 reported negative impacts ofthe pandemic) difficulty in concentrating(173195 89) disruptions to sleepingpatterns (168195 86) decreased socialinteractions due to physical distancing(167195 86) and increased concerns onacademic performance (159195 82) Tocope with stress and anxiety participants havesought support from others and helpedthemselves by adopting either negative orpositive coping mechanisms It is important toknow that creating awareness about any issueis never enough action is what is neededTaking leave from workschool because of a fluor a fracture is acceptable and might even helpin the process of cure and healing howevertaking time off because of stress from a mentalillness such as anxiety or depressionunfortunately is not

lsquoOnline classrsquo is a term which most of us werenrsquotfamiliar with Before this pandemic we neverthought of getting education at home Covid hasaffected all of our lives In past pursuingeducation meant going to the schoolcollege Butnow the whole scenario has changed Childrenare studying and attending classes from homeJust like there are two sides of a coin onlineclasses also have some advantages anddisadvantages

Starting from the advantages it saves time forboth students and teachers as they donrsquot haveto travel All they have to do is to join throughtheir mobiles or laptops Secondly studentsdonrsquot have to necessarily buy books from theshops like they had to do in offline classesbecause they are given pdfs from which they canstudy Therefore it saves money Third it can beattended from anywhere in the world Unlike inthe offline classes where we had to gather at aparticular place Fourth computer basedpractical can be easily understood as studentscan share their screen with teachers Also it iseasy for teachers to explain a topic with the helpof pictures or animations which can be easilyfound on the internet

Last but not the least Parents can keep an eyeon their children whether they are studyingproperly or not

Apart from advantages it has somedisadvantages too First sitting beside thecomputer or mobile for hours affects the eyesightof both students and teachers Doctors arereporting many cases of eyestrain amongchildren since the online classes have startedSecondly students are becoming lazy as theydonrsquot have to go out of their home Like theproverb lsquoAll work and no play makes Jack a dullboyrsquo is really happening Third students canbunk in the online classes easily As they haveno fear of punishment they learned to disobeyand disrespect teachers Fourth students havebeen given lots of assignments as a result ofwhich most students are copying othersassignments and are not learning anything newFifth it is very difficult to communicate asteachers cannot give attention to each studentLastly it can be concluded that no matter howthe classes are being held a student must bededicated and sincere towards their studiesAfter all onersquos future depends on what they do intheir present

An actuary is a business executive professionally trained in the mathematical sciences Actuariesspecialize in the evaluation of financial riskmdashmost often in the context of life health and casualtyinsurance where they design analyse and refine varied programs to meet the insurance needs ofsociety A growing number of actuaries work in the areas of assetliability management and risk managementSome of these actuaries are employed by investment and consulting firms others are employed byinsurance companies

Actuaries have been called financial architects and social mathematicians because their combinedanalytical and business skills help solve a growing variety of financial and social problems Theactuarial profession is a demanding yet rewarding career choice

In a world bombarded with numerical information informed decisions rely on the ability to separatefact from fiction by applying valid statistical analyses and visualizations Statisticians can providecrucial guidance in determining what information is reliable and which predictions may be trustedThey often help search for clues to the solution of a scientific mystery and sometimes keepinvestigators from being misled by false impressions

Thousands of statisticians work in medicine law agriculture public policy marketing manufacturingengineering and other fields in the social and natural sciences The diversity of applications is anexciting aspect of the field and is one more reason why the demand for well-trained statisticianscontinues to be strong

Poetry

Contributed by Dr Komal Goel

(41)

Contributed by Dr Meenu Goel

The curtain lifts on Bryant Elementary Schools Spring Recorder Recital Ninety third-graders fumble with their instruments take a breath

and blow Their parents braced breathe too

as Hot Crossed Buns emerges a little scattershot -- the Normal Distribution brought to life

By Go Tell Aunt Rhodie the audience

is moved by their sheer pretty-goodness though one kid knocks her music to the floor

and another squeaks to demonstrate

the tail two standard deviations below the mean The curve implies

that somewhere on stage another kid

just played a note so sweet he might shatter Mrs Wedermeyers glasses And if

there are a mother and father who think

that child is theirs may they be forgiven even if the child shining in their eyes

is moving his fingers slightly out of rhythm

even if hes never led the bell curve in his life In consecutive measures of almost unison

its easy to believe these children are musicians

Their parents do so stirred by Ode to Joy they rise to their feet with the final phrase

clapping from the darkened auditorium

at once as one heroically like the parents theyve meant to be

EK NAYA SAFAR

Mubarak ho apko zindgi ka naya safar

Naya hai sheher nai hai dagar

Chut gaye kuch rishte purane

But donrsquot worry yaar mil jayenge naye diwane

Kuch tum jaise khuch tum se alag

So just smile and start a new life

Dosti yaari ko zara side mai rakh ke

Edhar gaur famiye janab

Course toh tumne acha chuna hai

Kuch socha hai ya ese hi liya hai

College mai admission jab hota hai

Toh andar khushi ke fuvare futne lagte hai

Lekin syllabus o dekh kar yeh bhi dagmagane lagte hai

Mana CP paas hai vahi maat ghumte rehna

Varna paper mai cafeacute ki menu sheet hi likhte rehna

Donrsquot take a chill pill coz yaha ki teachers hai thori strict

Just because they want you to be the best

Ab kya kare college ka har din mamuli nahi hota

Aur 9 se 4 sirf parai nahi hoti

Gumo firo esh karo but parna na bhulo

Mana es saal kuch zyada hi speed breakers hai

But the best part is hum sab bhi toh sath hai

PONDERINGAll of humanity is but a set of numbers You and I

are nothing more than a statisticJust think about any decision you had to take

recently No matter your choice you might findyourself ending up only as an infinitesimal

decimal in the final percentage of a statisticianrsquosdiscourse Let me give you an example pertinent

to the world we live in today Say yoursquore arepublican and have to decide whether to wear a

mask or not Naturally your political instinctmight warn you against it However you might

still be inclined to wear one because yoursquoregenuinely scared about what the ldquoliberalsrdquo have

to say about the SARS-COV-2 Now now letrsquos notgo off-topic here I know you might be wondering

what yoursquod do if you were in a Republicanrsquos shoesBut thatrsquos not the point

In the end it seldom matters whether you are arepublican or a liberal especially in situations

like these What matters in the end is if you didgo out without wearing that infuriating

smothering mask And if you contracted thewretched virus because of it If yes hard luck

Yoursquore nothing more than one of the 841 millionpeople who have it Thatrsquos all that people aroundthe world will see Not your gender not your ageand certainly not your political belief Of course

there will be studies about the correlation ofthese factors with the incidence rate of the

infections but thatrsquos another story altogether andnot one possibly as broad as the one we talk

aboutMoreover the correlation must not be

confused with causation Now perhaps thatrsquosa story for another day But think about it thisway whether you go to college or drop out of

high school whether you choose to live ordecide to die no matter the decision no

matter your inclination or choice whetheryou like it or not you will be nothing more

than a statisticIt might sound a bit gloomy to be honestWhen I first thought about it I felt almostinsignificant Like a tiny speck of dust in a

galaxy of stars Alas isnrsquot that all that we arethough

A pale blue dot in an ocean of stars Ourplanet one among millions or perhaps

billions of others All 78 billion of us fightingfor a place in the world knowing full well we

canrsquot all possibly have it It might makeanyone feel overwhelmed but therersquos

something about that that is so challenging itis almost inspiring We all know statistics andwe all know life But the true beauty of life lies

in the ability to defy statistics Only onequestion remains are you up for the

challenge

It wonrsquot be any exaggeration If itrsquos said that tools of statistician are used in almost all fields ofcalculation

Be it research finance sports marketing sales health care or population countingIt is a crucial process behind How we make discoveries in science

Making decisions or claiming predictions It plays a crucial play in all situationsStats is involved everywhere from collection to interpretation From explanation to

presentationStatistics helps avoiding a wide variety of analytical traps By making sure that study follow

apt methods in all aspectsChallenging your own assumptions Or drawing data-based conclusions

Statistics is always there Making things crisp and clear

Donrsquot buy that lottery ticket Donrsquot wish for a fallen wicket

again

And if you donrsquot buy wish try andpredict

Why also bother living the life you claim tohave lived

It always seems impossible until it is done

If it makes you happyit doesnt have to make sense to others

When you cant find the sunshinebe the sunshine

Either you run the day or let the day run you

When you focus on the goodthe good gets better

It takes the same energy to worry as it doesto be positive so use your energy to thinkpositive and positive things will happen

The one thing that doesnt abide by majority rule is a persons conscience

Make happiness a priority and be gentle with yourself in the process

College the best start to unfold lifes beauty

Goodbye to the mistakes weve made remember the laughs weve shared

Will never forget these years

People are capable at anytime in their lives of doing what they dream of

Nehal DixitStop measuring your degree of

productivity and replace it by degree ofpresence

memorableAlternative hypothesis College life is difficult and

stressful

Test Statistics Given the observations for threeyears and some crazy friends the p value of Hobeing true is found to be greater than alpha

For all alpha level of laughters and fun we failto reject null hypothesis

Conclusion Therefore we conclude that college life isamazing full of adventures with a lot of new things tolearn and can be made memorable with a few but real

friendsSo make friends and dont give up there is a lot more

you can achieve in your life ahead

May every sunrise bring you hopeMay every sunset bring you peace

If you dont believe in yourself thenno one is going to believe in you So

Believe in Yourself

Be who you are and say what you feelbecause those who mind donrsquot matter and

those who matter donrsquot mind

Success is liking yourself liking what you do and liking how you do it

Happiness is a by-product of an effort to make someone else happy

If you are not willing to risk the unusual you will have to settle for the ordinary

Always keep it clean simple and precise

Hustle until you no longer have to introduce yourself

Dream it Wish it Do it

There are no limits to what you can accomplish except the limits you place

on your own thinking

The greatness of humanity is not in being human but in being humane

You will be exactly as happy as you decide

One thing to learn from the sun is thatwhenever a cloud tries to hinder itslight it finds its own path to shine

Excellence is not achieved - it is aspired to and trekked towards The tougher the trek

the better the views

I think the day we figure out everythingabout our lives is the day we die

Finding your magic can be scary but owning it will be EUPHORIA

An approximate answer to the right problem is worth a good deal more than

an exact answer to an approximate problem

Our greatest weakness lies in giving up The most certain way to succeed is always to try just one more time

The aim is to live happily heal throughevery situation and learn everything new

with every step taken

Believe in progress not perfection

Croxton and Cowden defines statistics as the science of collection presentation analysis andinterpretation of numerical data Progressively the Statistics subject come to be more and more popular and its application hasbecome more extensive Now almost there is no field of human activity where statistics are not usedNowadays it is used by economists businessmen scientists administrators etc To be more preciseabout the importance of statistics in our life lets discuss some astonishing reasons that we haveoverheard on several occasions

1 Everyone lookout for weather forecasting Have you ever thought how do you acquire thatinformation There are some computer models constructed on the basis of statistical conceptsThese computer models relate past weather with the present weather and predict future weather

2 Statistics frequently used by the researchers They use their statistical skills to collect therelevant data Otherwise it results in a loss of money time and data

3 What do you understand by insurance Everyone has some kind of insurance whether it ismedical home or any other insurance Several businesses use statistical models based on anindividual application to calculate the risk of giving insurance Life tables are indispensable for thesolution of all questions relating to the duration of human life 4 Statistic plays significant role in financial market Statistics are the key of how traders andbusinessmen invest and make money

5 Statistics play a big role in the medical field For testing the efficacy of a manufacturing druginjection or medicine for controlling curing specific ailments most of the applications of medicalfields lies in using the tests of significance (more precisely studentrsquos t-test) The testing of theeffectiveness of a medicine by the manufacturing concern is a must since only after theeffectiveness of the medicine is proven by the sound statistical techniques that it will venture tomanufacture it on a large scale and bring it out in the market By statistical techniques (t and Fsignificance tests) comparative study of different medicines can also be made

(18)

6 In industry Statistical techniques are used in quality testing Companies manufacture manyproducts on a daily basis and every company make sure that they sell the best quality items Butcompanies cannot test all the products so they use sampling techniques which are a very importantaspect of statistical theory 7 We make variety of predictions in daily life For examples we keep the alarm for the morningwhen we donrsquot know that we will be alive in the morning or not Here we use statistics basics to makepredictions

8 Using statistics concepts doctors predict disease Suppose a survey shows that 75-80people have cancer and not able to find the reason Where the statistics is involved there you canhave a better idea on how the cancer may affect your body

9 News reporter makes a prediction of winner for elections based on political campaigns Herestatistics play a very important role to find out who will form the government 10 Statistics data allow us to collect the information around the world The internet is a devisewhich help us to collect the information The fundamental behind the internet is based on statisticsand mathematics concepts 11 Not only in peace times but in war times also statistics can be used very effectively It ispractically not possible to face a war without the factual data concerning the military strength of theenemy in terms of manpower military tanks war aeroplanes missiles ammunition etc

BIOSTATISTICS is the application of statisticalmethods in studies in biology andencompasses the design of experiments thecollection of data from them and the analysisand interpretation of data The data comes froma wide range of sources including genomicstudies experiments with cells and organismsand clinical trials Biostatistics is the applicationof statistical principles to questions andproblems in medicine public health or biologyOne can imagine that it might be of interest tocharacterize a given population with respect tothe proportion who has asthma and it wouldalso be important to estimate the magnitude ofthese problems over time or perhaps in differentlocations Statistics is a science of compilingclassifying and tabulating numerical data andexpressing the results in a mathematical andgraphical form whereas biostatistics is thebranch of statistics concerned with themathematical facts and data related to biologicalevents

Francis Galton created the statistical conceptcorrelation Sir Galton for the first time usedstatistical tools to study differences amonghuman population He also invented the use ofquestionnaires surveys for collecting data onhuman communities Biostatistics are the eventand application of statistical method to a goodrange of topic in biology It encompasses theplanning of biological experiments the gatheringand analysis of knowledge from thoseexperiments and therefore the interpretation ofthe results Biostatistics is sometimesdistinguished from the field of biometry basedupon whether applications are in the healthsciences (bio statistics) or in broader biology(biometry example agriculture ecology wildlifebiology) More and more things are nowmeasured quantitatively in medicine and publichealth There is a great deal of inherent variationin most biological processes Public health andmedicine are becoming increasingly quantitative

(20)

It is used to test whether the differencebetween two populations is real or by chanceoccurrence to study the correlation betweenattributes in the same population and toevaluate the achievements of public healthprograms Biostatistics has applications in allthe branches of life sciences such as formapping chromosomes for studying thebehavior of genes in a population and forconduction of drug treatment trails etcBiostatistics deals with data arising frombiomedical research It remains a very activeresearch area with complicated time-to-eventdata and missing data emerging in applicationareas including medicine geneticsneuroscience and engineering Recentadvances in biomedical research have creatednew challenges and opportunities forstatisticians and data scientists For examplebig data analysis precision medicine artificialintelligence causal inference and other newresearch fields have inspired data scientists todevelop modern statistical methods andinnovative inference procedures

As technology progresses the physicianencounters more and more quantitative ratherthan descriptive information In one sensestatistics is the language of assembling andhandling quantitative material Even if onersquosconcern is only with the results of other peoplersquosmanipulation and assemblage of data it isimportant to achieve some understanding of thislanguage in order to interpret their resultsproperly Statistics pervades the medicalliterature As a consequence of the increasinglyquantitative nature of public health and medicineand its reliance on statistical methodology themedical literature is replete with reports in whichstatistical techniques are used extensivelyBiostatistics is used to determine how diseasesdevelop progress and spread

For example biostatisticians use statistics topredict the behavior of an illness like flu It is usedto help predict the mortality rate the symptomsand even the time of year people might get it

Over 50 years ago there was a subject whichwas unnoticed and mainly focused on the studyand analysis of data Statisticians urgedacademic statistics to transcend its boundariesbeyond the realm of theoretical statistics Morestress was laid on data presentation Datascience is a discipline which is guided bycomputing informatics operation researchmathematics and statistics

Statistics is treated as the most important tool insorting and analysing data It is beneficial ingiving a deeper vision of the data Statisticswidely depends upon experiments and surveysWith the help of descriptive statisticscalculations like mean median etc can bedone on the data On the other hand inferentialstatistics helps in drawing inferences andconclusions from the population Both domainsof statistics play a very important role in DataScience In order to get a structured data andmaking predictions statistical methods and toolsare very essential They are able to carry outmany analytical tasks

Statistical Analysis is the study of surveying agiven set of data and observing patterns andtrends It is used in research fields to createstatistical models for performing certainexperiments on a population

The focus is to gather information from thesmallest quantity of data The experimentsinvolve accurate calculations and therefore giverespective results Statistics forms the base ofData Science It requires optimization of hugedatabases which is achieved with the help ofdifferent statistical tools In todayrsquos data drivenworld Data Science is turning out to be one ofthe most demanded professions Almost all firmsand companies are in search of data scientistsas the data keeps on piling up and the need ofinterpreting analysing and cleaning it is risingThe ultimate aim of Statistics and Data Scienceis to extricate cognizance from large amounts ofdata

Whenever the word lsquobusinessrsquo is heard lsquosalesrsquo isthe word which comes to our mind next and whatexactly assists sales is STATISTICS Donrsquotbelieve me but I am sure after reading the articleyou would all agree to my point too So what doesa businessman do He manufactures and sellsthe goods produced to the public but both ofthese basic functions of the businessman cannotbe transcended without the help of statistics toolssuch as survey statistics driven softwares tocollect and analyse the demand of the customerand to what extent ie the quantity in which it isrequired in order to maximize their total revenueThe graphs and the tables formed ie the statshelp them to know the exact condition of themarket and its inclination so that they could comeout with offers and discounts in order to attractpublic towards their product maximizing theirsales The businessmen who is believed to bevery quick and accurate in decision making is allassisted by statistics at every point fromanalysing their sales profit margins wages of theemployees the improvements required in theproduct the billing counters are all carriedforward with the help of statistical tools Thefinancial resources required for investing in thebusiness are also arranged according to theassistance given by the data analysts Themarketing and advertisement of the products alsoneeds statistics Now you would be thinking how

Whenever a method of marketing is thought thepercentage of people to get influenced the agegroup to target the kind of offers to be laid downare all done through statistics You might haveheard that now data is the new oil that means lifeis all surrounded with data and for the data andthe demand for its upkeep and analysis the dataanalysts are required and in big organizationswho actually target all age groups and sell allkinds of products on a large scale have a largedatabase not only of the customers but also oftheir n number of employees So an organizationis incomplete without data and where there isdata there is statistics In fact I would say thatan organization isnrsquot an organization if they donot have data and its proper upkeep in such acase the company will surely drain out so thisactually proves how important statistics hasbecome in the business point of view Thebanking sector canrsquot function without statisticsand this banking business forms the backbone ofthe country since all the customers of the bankhave loads of data for a particular bank account

The main incoming and outgoing source ofincome in the business of insurance is throughpremiums and claims respectively Manystatistical models are used to model claimsand losses Parameters for these distributionsare estimated using Method of momentMaximum likelihood estimates etc and thenGoodness of fit testis applied to check howwell our distribution fits to the data Timeseries model plays an important role inforecasting future values Statistics is used toanswer the most important questions for theinsurance industry What percentage ofpolicies are expected to payout How muchmoney the company must expect to payout inclaims Different methods of data collectioneither in primary or secondary form are usedto determine the required reserves premiumand future predictions Apart from this manystatistical methods for eg Linear modelmethod which uses regression as the maintool in determining the factors affectingpremiums Loss distribution method in whichhistogram and bar graphs are made tocompare different categories and complexstatistical tools such as Ruin Theory and Run-off triangles are used to develop newproducts absorb and evaluate risk and ruinwhen balancing claims reserves andpremiums Thus statistics plays anirreplaceable role in the life cycle ofinsurance business for both life and non-life insurance

Statistics help in

Measuring the stability of drugs-II) Production of drugs according to demandsIII) Effectiveness of drugsIV) Quality control of drugs V) Marketing of drugs VI) Testing the side effects of the drug with thehelp of data VII) Going through the procedure of approvaland public distribution of drugs

Statistics in developing a drug

A lot of statistics tools are used duringproduction clinical trials and marketing andpublic distribution of drugs-1 Average (mean median and mode) Usedduring experiments like stability testingcombination of chemicals and checking acidity orbasicity of solutions to calculate mean averageresults2 Standard deviation and variance It is ameasure of testing precision Can be used toevaluate precision at various points in a processor to evaluate the precision between two differentmethods of the experiment3 Q test for rejecting data It is used to checkoutliers in data ie to check unusual deviation ina data set to see if it can be statistically rejected

4 Confidence limits It helps in finding theprobability of the true value being within acalculable range It makes use of multiplyingstandard deviation with studentrsquos t-factor thatdetermines the confidence interval of theobservation at the stated confidence level5 t F Chi-square and other tests Helps incomparing the results of two data sets For egside effects of different medication in the samepopulation6 Correlation Helps to detect the relationbetween two attributes of a data for eg howthe effect of a medicine increases or decreasesdue to the change in dosage how increase ordecrease in temperature affects the stability ofcertain medication

Clinical Trials

Clinical trials are research studies that evaluatenew ways to improve treatments and quality oflife for people with disease and in presentscenario global pandemic COVID-19 Resultsfrom Clinical trials help develop

1 New drugsvaccines 2 New diagnostic tools 3 New clinical procedures

Participants volunteer for clinical trials

(28)

In this method of stratified random sampling isused to divide the volunteers into different stratabased on shared attributes or characteristicssuch as gender medical conditions and otherspecifics These stratarsquos are used in differentphases of clinical trials

Clinical trials have 4 phases

Before trial begins volunteers need tounderstand the potential benefits and potentialrisks before participating in clinical trials thatrsquoswhy pre-clinical phase is conducted to test thenew treatment on animals and healthyvolunteers This part comes under descriptivestatistics where we are using the observed(benefits and risks) for further research Phase 1- In this new treatment is tested for thefirst time to know how treatment affects thebody to determine a safe dose range forvaccine and their side effects It involvesrelatively 20-80 volunteers Stats approach-Association analysis is performed to capture thecorrelations between drug therapeuticindications and side-effects In order to achievethis goal we adopted Fishers exact test whichis a widely used approach for measuring thesignificance of the association between twonominal variables For example to test thesignificance of the association between drugtherapeutic indications A and drug side effect B

Phase 2- The study involves how well a newtreatment or combination of treatment goes wellwith certain types of patients It involves up to300 patient volunteers For example out oftotal cancer patients half of the patients areselected randomly and are given cancertreatment along with new vaccine and other halfare given cancer treatment along with standardtreatment of corona virus Now side effects inboth the cases are noted Aim is to determinewhich combination of treatment will have lessside effects Chi- square test is used tocompare the side effects in both the cases Phase 3- In this phase effectiveness of addinga new treatment to the standard treatment isstudied 100-1000 volunteers participate in thisphase Stats approach- Participants arerandomly split into two groups 1st group(treatment group) receives the standardtreatment + new vaccine and 2nd group (controlgroup) receives standard treatment + placebo(a treatment that looks identical to the newtreatment but contains no active ingredient) Inthis phase mean time taken to develop antibodies in both the groups are compared usingZ-test (Test of significance for difference inmeans)

Phase 4- In this phase no volunteers areinvolved researchersrsquo monitor drug safety andeffectiveness It involves optimal usage

Codes canrsquot lie but comments can mightseems to be simple yet very meaningful

We all live in the digital era of hightechnologies smart devices and mobilesolutions Data is an essential aspect of anybusiness Itrsquos crucial to gather process andanalyse the data flow and to do that as quicklyand accurately as possible Nowadays the datavolume can be large which makes informationhandling time-consuming and expensive Dueto this precise reason the data science industryis growing at a rapid pace creating newpossibilities as well as opportunities and pythonis one of the solutions to understand andanalyse such big data sets It is a cross-functional language that has lots of advantagesto offer This object-oriented programminglanguage is commonly used to streamline largecomplex data sets Not only this it has a highreadability that helps data analysts to save timeby typing fewer lines of code for accomplishingthe tasks Therefore itrsquos not surprising at allthat it is claimed to be the preferredprogramming language for data science

Let me tell you why Python is a number oneoption for data analysis-

gtgt Easy to LearnBeing involved in development for web servicesmobile apps as well as coding Yes it is one ofthe most famous language characteristics Morethan that a low and thus fast learning curve isthe next pre-eminence of Python whencomparing it with older languages on offer

gtgt Well-SupportedHaving the experience of using some tools forfree you probably know that it is a challenge toget decent support but thatrsquos not the case withPython Despite the high simplicity there can besituations when you still need help with PythonBeing in widespread use like in industries oracademic areas Python has a broad array ofhelpful libraries with tons of helpful and supportmaterials The great benefit is that all thelibraries are available at no cost

gtgt ScalabilityThis Pythonrsquos feature is closely connected withthe previous option Comparing with otherlanguages like R Java python is much fasterand more scalable Therefore it is good invarious fields that can solve a wide range ofproblems Thatrsquos why many companies havemigrated to Python

(34)

gtgt Huge Libraries CollectionAs I have already mentioned Python is one ofthe most supported languages nowadays Ithas a long list of totally free libraries availablefor all the users Thatrsquos a key factor that givesa strong push for Python If yoursquore involved inthe field more likely you are acquainted withsuch names as Pandas SciPy Stats ModelsMatplotlib etc libraries that are intensivelyutilized in the data science community Hereyou can easily find a solution needed forhassle-free work without additional expenses

gtgt Graphics and Visualization ToolsItrsquos a well-known fact that visual information ismuch easier to understand operate andremember So here is some good news foryou There is a pack of diverse visualizationoptions available that makes python a must-have tool not only for data analysis but for alldata science You can make the data moreaccessible and easier to use by means ofcreating various charts and graphics as wellas interactive plots Always remember that thesuccess of your business directly depends onthe ability to extract knowledge and insightsfrom data to make effective strategicdecisions stay competitive and makeprogress and Python is the internationallyclaimed programming language to help us inhandling our data in a better manner for avariety of causes

ldquoCollege life is known as one of the most memorable years of astudentrsquos life exposing them to new experiences like meeting new

people learning new things exploring places etcrdquo

A registered clinical psychologist in Honk Kongnamed Zanonia Chiu said - ldquoGoing to school hadbeen a struggle for some children (withdepression) prior to the pandemic but at leastthey had school routines to stick with Now thatschools are closed some lock themselves upinside their rooms for weeks refusing to takeshowers eat or leave their beds For somechildren with depression there will beconsiderable difficulties adjusting back to normallife when college resumesrdquo and according to anonline survey conducted with the study periodfrom April 2020 to May 2020 - Total 531372 and 243 had symptoms of depressionanxiety and stress respectively with varyingseverities (N=727)The conclusion of the surveyindicated that COVID-19 is building psychologicaldistress among vulnerable college students asthey are forced to stay home along withworsening financial situations lifestyle changesfamily situations and time spent on variousactivities

Sounds so interesting and happening right Itis true indeed but along with stressful timeaside Along with the perks of enjoyingfreedom more than ever there comesacademic pressure tasks of separation fromfamilies career building futureresponsibilities etc Boarding on with thecollege life is a stressful time for manystudents thereby affecting their mental healthMental health problems are very commonamong college students and have been anincreasing concern However the COVID-19pandemic situation has brought this vulnerablepopulation into renewed focus Following thepandemic schools colleges offices andalmost every place that involved humaninteraction was shut It is important to note thatcollegeschool or even a normal routine areimportant coping mechanisms for youngpeople with mental health issues and wheneverything is shut down they lose an anchor inlife and their symptoms could relapse

Mental health among students is a big concernhowever ldquoUNTREATEDrdquo mental illnesses are amuch bigger and exponentially growingconcern Reaching out is an important step formental health issues to be addressed andtreated but reach out to who This is the pointwhere our institution should take over Collegesplay a big role in this stage Colleges doaddress this issue through means of orientationsessions and workshops but there is still a needto address mental health more directly Themethods to address mental health issuesshould be accessible feasible and affordablefor the students For example at NorthwesternUniversity student feedback led orientationenabled organizers to shift their focus fromexpert speakers to student testimonials Meansto address the issue vary from traditionalpresentations and panel discussions to roleplays small group discussions etc Herestudents learn how to recognize mental illnesssymptoms where to find resources andsupport and how to talk to friends who mightbe struggling

The findings of this study highlighted theurgent need to develop interventions andpreventive strategies to address the mentalhealth of college students Another InterviewSurvey study conducted by the Journal ofMedical Internet Research highlighted that of195 students 138 (71) indicated increasedstress and anxiety due to the COVID-19outbreak Multiple stressors were identified thatcontributed to the increased levels of stressanxiety and depressive thoughts amongstudents These included fear and worry abouttheir own health and of their loved ones(177195 91 reported negative impacts ofthe pandemic) difficulty in concentrating(173195 89) disruptions to sleepingpatterns (168195 86) decreased socialinteractions due to physical distancing(167195 86) and increased concerns onacademic performance (159195 82) Tocope with stress and anxiety participants havesought support from others and helpedthemselves by adopting either negative orpositive coping mechanisms It is important toknow that creating awareness about any issueis never enough action is what is neededTaking leave from workschool because of a fluor a fracture is acceptable and might even helpin the process of cure and healing howevertaking time off because of stress from a mentalillness such as anxiety or depressionunfortunately is not

lsquoOnline classrsquo is a term which most of us werenrsquotfamiliar with Before this pandemic we neverthought of getting education at home Covid hasaffected all of our lives In past pursuingeducation meant going to the schoolcollege Butnow the whole scenario has changed Childrenare studying and attending classes from homeJust like there are two sides of a coin onlineclasses also have some advantages anddisadvantages

Starting from the advantages it saves time forboth students and teachers as they donrsquot haveto travel All they have to do is to join throughtheir mobiles or laptops Secondly studentsdonrsquot have to necessarily buy books from theshops like they had to do in offline classesbecause they are given pdfs from which they canstudy Therefore it saves money Third it can beattended from anywhere in the world Unlike inthe offline classes where we had to gather at aparticular place Fourth computer basedpractical can be easily understood as studentscan share their screen with teachers Also it iseasy for teachers to explain a topic with the helpof pictures or animations which can be easilyfound on the internet

Last but not the least Parents can keep an eyeon their children whether they are studyingproperly or not

Apart from advantages it has somedisadvantages too First sitting beside thecomputer or mobile for hours affects the eyesightof both students and teachers Doctors arereporting many cases of eyestrain amongchildren since the online classes have startedSecondly students are becoming lazy as theydonrsquot have to go out of their home Like theproverb lsquoAll work and no play makes Jack a dullboyrsquo is really happening Third students canbunk in the online classes easily As they haveno fear of punishment they learned to disobeyand disrespect teachers Fourth students havebeen given lots of assignments as a result ofwhich most students are copying othersassignments and are not learning anything newFifth it is very difficult to communicate asteachers cannot give attention to each studentLastly it can be concluded that no matter howthe classes are being held a student must bededicated and sincere towards their studiesAfter all onersquos future depends on what they do intheir present

An actuary is a business executive professionally trained in the mathematical sciences Actuariesspecialize in the evaluation of financial riskmdashmost often in the context of life health and casualtyinsurance where they design analyse and refine varied programs to meet the insurance needs ofsociety A growing number of actuaries work in the areas of assetliability management and risk managementSome of these actuaries are employed by investment and consulting firms others are employed byinsurance companies

Actuaries have been called financial architects and social mathematicians because their combinedanalytical and business skills help solve a growing variety of financial and social problems Theactuarial profession is a demanding yet rewarding career choice

In a world bombarded with numerical information informed decisions rely on the ability to separatefact from fiction by applying valid statistical analyses and visualizations Statisticians can providecrucial guidance in determining what information is reliable and which predictions may be trustedThey often help search for clues to the solution of a scientific mystery and sometimes keepinvestigators from being misled by false impressions

Thousands of statisticians work in medicine law agriculture public policy marketing manufacturingengineering and other fields in the social and natural sciences The diversity of applications is anexciting aspect of the field and is one more reason why the demand for well-trained statisticianscontinues to be strong

The curtain lifts on Bryant Elementary Schools Spring Recorder Recital Ninety third-graders fumble with their instruments take a breath

and blow Their parents braced breathe too

as Hot Crossed Buns emerges a little scattershot -- the Normal Distribution brought to life

By Go Tell Aunt Rhodie the audience

is moved by their sheer pretty-goodness though one kid knocks her music to the floor

and another squeaks to demonstrate

the tail two standard deviations below the mean The curve implies

that somewhere on stage another kid

just played a note so sweet he might shatter Mrs Wedermeyers glasses And if

there are a mother and father who think

that child is theirs may they be forgiven even if the child shining in their eyes

is moving his fingers slightly out of rhythm

even if hes never led the bell curve in his life In consecutive measures of almost unison

its easy to believe these children are musicians

Their parents do so stirred by Ode to Joy they rise to their feet with the final phrase

clapping from the darkened auditorium

at once as one heroically like the parents theyve meant to be

EK NAYA SAFAR

Mubarak ho apko zindgi ka naya safar

Naya hai sheher nai hai dagar

Chut gaye kuch rishte purane

But donrsquot worry yaar mil jayenge naye diwane

Kuch tum jaise khuch tum se alag

So just smile and start a new life

Dosti yaari ko zara side mai rakh ke

Edhar gaur famiye janab

Course toh tumne acha chuna hai

Kuch socha hai ya ese hi liya hai

College mai admission jab hota hai

Toh andar khushi ke fuvare futne lagte hai

Lekin syllabus o dekh kar yeh bhi dagmagane lagte hai

Mana CP paas hai vahi maat ghumte rehna

Varna paper mai cafeacute ki menu sheet hi likhte rehna

Donrsquot take a chill pill coz yaha ki teachers hai thori strict

Just because they want you to be the best

Ab kya kare college ka har din mamuli nahi hota

Aur 9 se 4 sirf parai nahi hoti

Gumo firo esh karo but parna na bhulo

Mana es saal kuch zyada hi speed breakers hai

But the best part is hum sab bhi toh sath hai

PONDERINGAll of humanity is but a set of numbers You and I

are nothing more than a statisticJust think about any decision you had to take

recently No matter your choice you might findyourself ending up only as an infinitesimal

decimal in the final percentage of a statisticianrsquosdiscourse Let me give you an example pertinent

to the world we live in today Say yoursquore arepublican and have to decide whether to wear a

mask or not Naturally your political instinctmight warn you against it However you might

still be inclined to wear one because yoursquoregenuinely scared about what the ldquoliberalsrdquo have

to say about the SARS-COV-2 Now now letrsquos notgo off-topic here I know you might be wondering

what yoursquod do if you were in a Republicanrsquos shoesBut thatrsquos not the point

In the end it seldom matters whether you are arepublican or a liberal especially in situations

like these What matters in the end is if you didgo out without wearing that infuriating

smothering mask And if you contracted thewretched virus because of it If yes hard luck

Yoursquore nothing more than one of the 841 millionpeople who have it Thatrsquos all that people aroundthe world will see Not your gender not your ageand certainly not your political belief Of course

there will be studies about the correlation ofthese factors with the incidence rate of the

infections but thatrsquos another story altogether andnot one possibly as broad as the one we talk

aboutMoreover the correlation must not be

confused with causation Now perhaps thatrsquosa story for another day But think about it thisway whether you go to college or drop out of

high school whether you choose to live ordecide to die no matter the decision no

matter your inclination or choice whetheryou like it or not you will be nothing more

than a statisticIt might sound a bit gloomy to be honestWhen I first thought about it I felt almostinsignificant Like a tiny speck of dust in a

galaxy of stars Alas isnrsquot that all that we arethough

A pale blue dot in an ocean of stars Ourplanet one among millions or perhaps

billions of others All 78 billion of us fightingfor a place in the world knowing full well we

canrsquot all possibly have it It might makeanyone feel overwhelmed but therersquos

something about that that is so challenging itis almost inspiring We all know statistics andwe all know life But the true beauty of life lies

in the ability to defy statistics Only onequestion remains are you up for the

challenge

It wonrsquot be any exaggeration If itrsquos said that tools of statistician are used in almost all fields ofcalculation

Be it research finance sports marketing sales health care or population countingIt is a crucial process behind How we make discoveries in science

Making decisions or claiming predictions It plays a crucial play in all situationsStats is involved everywhere from collection to interpretation From explanation to

presentationStatistics helps avoiding a wide variety of analytical traps By making sure that study follow

It always seems impossible until it is done

If it makes you happyit doesnt have to make sense to others

When you cant find the sunshinebe the sunshine

Either you run the day or let the day run you

When you focus on the goodthe good gets better

It takes the same energy to worry as it doesto be positive so use your energy to thinkpositive and positive things will happen

The one thing that doesnt abide by majority rule is a persons conscience

Make happiness a priority and be gentle with yourself in the process

College the best start to unfold lifes beauty

Goodbye to the mistakes weve made remember the laughs weve shared

Will never forget these years

People are capable at anytime in their lives of doing what they dream of

If you dont believe in yourself thenno one is going to believe in you So

Believe in Yourself

Be who you are and say what you feelbecause those who mind donrsquot matter and

those who matter donrsquot mind

Success is liking yourself liking what you do and liking how you do it

Happiness is a by-product of an effort to make someone else happy

If you are not willing to risk the unusual you will have to settle for the ordinary

Always keep it clean simple and precise

Hustle until you no longer have to introduce yourself

Dream it Wish it Do it

There are no limits to what you can accomplish except the limits you place

on your own thinking

Croxton and Cowden defines statistics as the science of collection presentation analysis andinterpretation of numerical data Progressively the Statistics subject come to be more and more popular and its application hasbecome more extensive Now almost there is no field of human activity where statistics are not usedNowadays it is used by economists businessmen scientists administrators etc To be more preciseabout the importance of statistics in our life lets discuss some astonishing reasons that we haveoverheard on several occasions

1 Everyone lookout for weather forecasting Have you ever thought how do you acquire thatinformation There are some computer models constructed on the basis of statistical conceptsThese computer models relate past weather with the present weather and predict future weather

2 Statistics frequently used by the researchers They use their statistical skills to collect therelevant data Otherwise it results in a loss of money time and data

3 What do you understand by insurance Everyone has some kind of insurance whether it ismedical home or any other insurance Several businesses use statistical models based on anindividual application to calculate the risk of giving insurance Life tables are indispensable for thesolution of all questions relating to the duration of human life 4 Statistic plays significant role in financial market Statistics are the key of how traders andbusinessmen invest and make money

5 Statistics play a big role in the medical field For testing the efficacy of a manufacturing druginjection or medicine for controlling curing specific ailments most of the applications of medicalfields lies in using the tests of significance (more precisely studentrsquos t-test) The testing of theeffectiveness of a medicine by the manufacturing concern is a must since only after theeffectiveness of the medicine is proven by the sound statistical techniques that it will venture tomanufacture it on a large scale and bring it out in the market By statistical techniques (t and Fsignificance tests) comparative study of different medicines can also be made

(18)

6 In industry Statistical techniques are used in quality testing Companies manufacture manyproducts on a daily basis and every company make sure that they sell the best quality items Butcompanies cannot test all the products so they use sampling techniques which are a very importantaspect of statistical theory 7 We make variety of predictions in daily life For examples we keep the alarm for the morningwhen we donrsquot know that we will be alive in the morning or not Here we use statistics basics to makepredictions

8 Using statistics concepts doctors predict disease Suppose a survey shows that 75-80people have cancer and not able to find the reason Where the statistics is involved there you canhave a better idea on how the cancer may affect your body

9 News reporter makes a prediction of winner for elections based on political campaigns Herestatistics play a very important role to find out who will form the government 10 Statistics data allow us to collect the information around the world The internet is a devisewhich help us to collect the information The fundamental behind the internet is based on statisticsand mathematics concepts 11 Not only in peace times but in war times also statistics can be used very effectively It ispractically not possible to face a war without the factual data concerning the military strength of theenemy in terms of manpower military tanks war aeroplanes missiles ammunition etc

BIOSTATISTICS is the application of statisticalmethods in studies in biology andencompasses the design of experiments thecollection of data from them and the analysisand interpretation of data The data comes froma wide range of sources including genomicstudies experiments with cells and organismsand clinical trials Biostatistics is the applicationof statistical principles to questions andproblems in medicine public health or biologyOne can imagine that it might be of interest tocharacterize a given population with respect tothe proportion who has asthma and it wouldalso be important to estimate the magnitude ofthese problems over time or perhaps in differentlocations Statistics is a science of compilingclassifying and tabulating numerical data andexpressing the results in a mathematical andgraphical form whereas biostatistics is thebranch of statistics concerned with themathematical facts and data related to biologicalevents

Francis Galton created the statistical conceptcorrelation Sir Galton for the first time usedstatistical tools to study differences amonghuman population He also invented the use ofquestionnaires surveys for collecting data onhuman communities Biostatistics are the eventand application of statistical method to a goodrange of topic in biology It encompasses theplanning of biological experiments the gatheringand analysis of knowledge from thoseexperiments and therefore the interpretation ofthe results Biostatistics is sometimesdistinguished from the field of biometry basedupon whether applications are in the healthsciences (bio statistics) or in broader biology(biometry example agriculture ecology wildlifebiology) More and more things are nowmeasured quantitatively in medicine and publichealth There is a great deal of inherent variationin most biological processes Public health andmedicine are becoming increasingly quantitative

(20)

It is used to test whether the differencebetween two populations is real or by chanceoccurrence to study the correlation betweenattributes in the same population and toevaluate the achievements of public healthprograms Biostatistics has applications in allthe branches of life sciences such as formapping chromosomes for studying thebehavior of genes in a population and forconduction of drug treatment trails etcBiostatistics deals with data arising frombiomedical research It remains a very activeresearch area with complicated time-to-eventdata and missing data emerging in applicationareas including medicine geneticsneuroscience and engineering Recentadvances in biomedical research have creatednew challenges and opportunities forstatisticians and data scientists For examplebig data analysis precision medicine artificialintelligence causal inference and other newresearch fields have inspired data scientists todevelop modern statistical methods andinnovative inference procedures

As technology progresses the physicianencounters more and more quantitative ratherthan descriptive information In one sensestatistics is the language of assembling andhandling quantitative material Even if onersquosconcern is only with the results of other peoplersquosmanipulation and assemblage of data it isimportant to achieve some understanding of thislanguage in order to interpret their resultsproperly Statistics pervades the medicalliterature As a consequence of the increasinglyquantitative nature of public health and medicineand its reliance on statistical methodology themedical literature is replete with reports in whichstatistical techniques are used extensivelyBiostatistics is used to determine how diseasesdevelop progress and spread

For example biostatisticians use statistics topredict the behavior of an illness like flu It is usedto help predict the mortality rate the symptomsand even the time of year people might get it

(21)

Over 50 years ago there was a subject whichwas unnoticed and mainly focused on the studyand analysis of data Statisticians urgedacademic statistics to transcend its boundariesbeyond the realm of theoretical statistics Morestress was laid on data presentation Datascience is a discipline which is guided bycomputing informatics operation researchmathematics and statistics

Statistics is treated as the most important tool insorting and analysing data It is beneficial ingiving a deeper vision of the data Statisticswidely depends upon experiments and surveysWith the help of descriptive statisticscalculations like mean median etc can bedone on the data On the other hand inferentialstatistics helps in drawing inferences andconclusions from the population Both domainsof statistics play a very important role in DataScience In order to get a structured data andmaking predictions statistical methods and toolsare very essential They are able to carry outmany analytical tasks

Statistical Analysis is the study of surveying agiven set of data and observing patterns andtrends It is used in research fields to createstatistical models for performing certainexperiments on a population

The focus is to gather information from thesmallest quantity of data The experimentsinvolve accurate calculations and therefore giverespective results Statistics forms the base ofData Science It requires optimization of hugedatabases which is achieved with the help ofdifferent statistical tools In todayrsquos data drivenworld Data Science is turning out to be one ofthe most demanded professions Almost all firmsand companies are in search of data scientistsas the data keeps on piling up and the need ofinterpreting analysing and cleaning it is risingThe ultimate aim of Statistics and Data Scienceis to extricate cognizance from large amounts ofdata

Whenever the word lsquobusinessrsquo is heard lsquosalesrsquo isthe word which comes to our mind next and whatexactly assists sales is STATISTICS Donrsquotbelieve me but I am sure after reading the articleyou would all agree to my point too So what doesa businessman do He manufactures and sellsthe goods produced to the public but both ofthese basic functions of the businessman cannotbe transcended without the help of statistics toolssuch as survey statistics driven softwares tocollect and analyse the demand of the customerand to what extent ie the quantity in which it isrequired in order to maximize their total revenueThe graphs and the tables formed ie the statshelp them to know the exact condition of themarket and its inclination so that they could comeout with offers and discounts in order to attractpublic towards their product maximizing theirsales The businessmen who is believed to bevery quick and accurate in decision making is allassisted by statistics at every point fromanalysing their sales profit margins wages of theemployees the improvements required in theproduct the billing counters are all carriedforward with the help of statistical tools Thefinancial resources required for investing in thebusiness are also arranged according to theassistance given by the data analysts Themarketing and advertisement of the products alsoneeds statistics Now you would be thinking how

amp its regular maintenance is all handled bystatistical applications In order to calculate theaverage mean median loss profit and all theother commerce related terms in businessesdealing with large amount of data is all handledby statisticians Statistics also helps inmaintaining employee performancemanagement A manager collects data aboutemployee productivity such as the number oftasks completed or the number of unitsproduced He or she must analyse data to findways in which an employee should improve toachieve maximum productivity Manycompanies also collect data about employeeengagement and happiness on the job whichcan be tracked to not only keep workersmotivated but ensure they dont leave for otherpositions elsewhere This helps in increasingthe efficiency of the employees and also createsa healthy working environment I have listed lotof points to prove the importance of statistics inbusinesses and hope that you will now agree towhat I mentioned in the beginning of the article

Whenever a method of marketing is thought thepercentage of people to get influenced the agegroup to target the kind of offers to be laid downare all done through statistics You might haveheard that now data is the new oil that means lifeis all surrounded with data and for the data andthe demand for its upkeep and analysis the dataanalysts are required and in big organizationswho actually target all age groups and sell allkinds of products on a large scale have a largedatabase not only of the customers but also oftheir n number of employees So an organizationis incomplete without data and where there isdata there is statistics In fact I would say thatan organization isnrsquot an organization if they donot have data and its proper upkeep in such acase the company will surely drain out so thisactually proves how important statistics hasbecome in the business point of view Thebanking sector canrsquot function without statisticsand this banking business forms the backbone ofthe country since all the customers of the bankhave loads of data for a particular bank account

Statistics is the science of learning from dataStatistical knowledge helps an individual to usethe proper methods for collecting data employthe correct analysis and present the resultseffectively Statistical analysis is thus used inalmost all fields to make sense out of the vastamount of data that is available Thus statisticalmethodologies are not only useful in drawingimportant results but also play a significant role inproducing new findings and understanding thework of others One such field which has wideuse of the statistical techniques andmethodologies is the Insurance Sector Insuranceis basically the business of risk as it involves thetransfer of risk from one party to another

The main incoming and outgoing source ofincome in the business of insurance is throughpremiums and claims respectively Manystatistical models are used to model claimsand losses Parameters for these distributionsare estimated using Method of momentMaximum likelihood estimates etc and thenGoodness of fit testis applied to check howwell our distribution fits to the data Timeseries model plays an important role inforecasting future values Statistics is used toanswer the most important questions for theinsurance industry What percentage ofpolicies are expected to payout How muchmoney the company must expect to payout inclaims Different methods of data collectioneither in primary or secondary form are usedto determine the required reserves premiumand future predictions Apart from this manystatistical methods for eg Linear modelmethod which uses regression as the maintool in determining the factors affectingpremiums Loss distribution method in whichhistogram and bar graphs are made tocompare different categories and complexstatistical tools such as Ruin Theory and Run-off triangles are used to develop newproducts absorb and evaluate risk and ruinwhen balancing claims reserves andpremiums Thus statistics plays anirreplaceable role in the life cycle ofinsurance business for both life and non-life insurance

Statistics help in

Measuring the stability of drugs-II) Production of drugs according to demandsIII) Effectiveness of drugsIV) Quality control of drugs V) Marketing of drugs VI) Testing the side effects of the drug with thehelp of data VII) Going through the procedure of approvaland public distribution of drugs

Statistics in developing a drug

A lot of statistics tools are used duringproduction clinical trials and marketing andpublic distribution of drugs-1 Average (mean median and mode) Usedduring experiments like stability testingcombination of chemicals and checking acidity orbasicity of solutions to calculate mean averageresults2 Standard deviation and variance It is ameasure of testing precision Can be used toevaluate precision at various points in a processor to evaluate the precision between two differentmethods of the experiment3 Q test for rejecting data It is used to checkoutliers in data ie to check unusual deviation ina data set to see if it can be statistically rejected

4 Confidence limits It helps in finding theprobability of the true value being within acalculable range It makes use of multiplyingstandard deviation with studentrsquos t-factor thatdetermines the confidence interval of theobservation at the stated confidence level5 t F Chi-square and other tests Helps incomparing the results of two data sets For egside effects of different medication in the samepopulation6 Correlation Helps to detect the relationbetween two attributes of a data for eg howthe effect of a medicine increases or decreasesdue to the change in dosage how increase ordecrease in temperature affects the stability ofcertain medication

Clinical Trials

Clinical trials are research studies that evaluatenew ways to improve treatments and quality oflife for people with disease and in presentscenario global pandemic COVID-19 Resultsfrom Clinical trials help develop

1 New drugsvaccines 2 New diagnostic tools 3 New clinical procedures

Participants volunteer for clinical trials

(28)

In this method of stratified random sampling isused to divide the volunteers into different stratabased on shared attributes or characteristicssuch as gender medical conditions and otherspecifics These stratarsquos are used in differentphases of clinical trials

Clinical trials have 4 phases

Before trial begins volunteers need tounderstand the potential benefits and potentialrisks before participating in clinical trials thatrsquoswhy pre-clinical phase is conducted to test thenew treatment on animals and healthyvolunteers This part comes under descriptivestatistics where we are using the observed(benefits and risks) for further research Phase 1- In this new treatment is tested for thefirst time to know how treatment affects thebody to determine a safe dose range forvaccine and their side effects It involvesrelatively 20-80 volunteers Stats approach-Association analysis is performed to capture thecorrelations between drug therapeuticindications and side-effects In order to achievethis goal we adopted Fishers exact test whichis a widely used approach for measuring thesignificance of the association between twonominal variables For example to test thesignificance of the association between drugtherapeutic indications A and drug side effect B

Phase 2- The study involves how well a newtreatment or combination of treatment goes wellwith certain types of patients It involves up to300 patient volunteers For example out oftotal cancer patients half of the patients areselected randomly and are given cancertreatment along with new vaccine and other halfare given cancer treatment along with standardtreatment of corona virus Now side effects inboth the cases are noted Aim is to determinewhich combination of treatment will have lessside effects Chi- square test is used tocompare the side effects in both the cases Phase 3- In this phase effectiveness of addinga new treatment to the standard treatment isstudied 100-1000 volunteers participate in thisphase Stats approach- Participants arerandomly split into two groups 1st group(treatment group) receives the standardtreatment + new vaccine and 2nd group (controlgroup) receives standard treatment + placebo(a treatment that looks identical to the newtreatment but contains no active ingredient) Inthis phase mean time taken to develop antibodies in both the groups are compared usingZ-test (Test of significance for difference inmeans)

Phase 4- In this phase no volunteers areinvolved researchersrsquo monitor drug safety andeffectiveness It involves optimal usage

Codes canrsquot lie but comments can mightseems to be simple yet very meaningful

We all live in the digital era of hightechnologies smart devices and mobilesolutions Data is an essential aspect of anybusiness Itrsquos crucial to gather process andanalyse the data flow and to do that as quicklyand accurately as possible Nowadays the datavolume can be large which makes informationhandling time-consuming and expensive Dueto this precise reason the data science industryis growing at a rapid pace creating newpossibilities as well as opportunities and pythonis one of the solutions to understand andanalyse such big data sets It is a cross-functional language that has lots of advantagesto offer This object-oriented programminglanguage is commonly used to streamline largecomplex data sets Not only this it has a highreadability that helps data analysts to save timeby typing fewer lines of code for accomplishingthe tasks Therefore itrsquos not surprising at allthat it is claimed to be the preferredprogramming language for data science

gtgt Easy to LearnBeing involved in development for web servicesmobile apps as well as coding Yes it is one ofthe most famous language characteristics Morethan that a low and thus fast learning curve isthe next pre-eminence of Python whencomparing it with older languages on offer

gtgt Well-SupportedHaving the experience of using some tools forfree you probably know that it is a challenge toget decent support but thatrsquos not the case withPython Despite the high simplicity there can besituations when you still need help with PythonBeing in widespread use like in industries oracademic areas Python has a broad array ofhelpful libraries with tons of helpful and supportmaterials The great benefit is that all thelibraries are available at no cost

gtgt ScalabilityThis Pythonrsquos feature is closely connected withthe previous option Comparing with otherlanguages like R Java python is much fasterand more scalable Therefore it is good invarious fields that can solve a wide range ofproblems Thatrsquos why many companies havemigrated to Python

(34)

gtgt Huge Libraries CollectionAs I have already mentioned Python is one ofthe most supported languages nowadays Ithas a long list of totally free libraries availablefor all the users Thatrsquos a key factor that givesa strong push for Python If yoursquore involved inthe field more likely you are acquainted withsuch names as Pandas SciPy Stats ModelsMatplotlib etc libraries that are intensivelyutilized in the data science community Hereyou can easily find a solution needed forhassle-free work without additional expenses

gtgt Graphics and Visualization ToolsItrsquos a well-known fact that visual information ismuch easier to understand operate andremember So here is some good news foryou There is a pack of diverse visualizationoptions available that makes python a must-have tool not only for data analysis but for alldata science You can make the data moreaccessible and easier to use by means ofcreating various charts and graphics as wellas interactive plots Always remember that thesuccess of your business directly depends onthe ability to extract knowledge and insightsfrom data to make effective strategicdecisions stay competitive and makeprogress and Python is the internationallyclaimed programming language to help us inhandling our data in a better manner for avariety of causes

A registered clinical psychologist in Honk Kongnamed Zanonia Chiu said - ldquoGoing to school hadbeen a struggle for some children (withdepression) prior to the pandemic but at leastthey had school routines to stick with Now thatschools are closed some lock themselves upinside their rooms for weeks refusing to takeshowers eat or leave their beds For somechildren with depression there will beconsiderable difficulties adjusting back to normallife when college resumesrdquo and according to anonline survey conducted with the study periodfrom April 2020 to May 2020 - Total 531372 and 243 had symptoms of depressionanxiety and stress respectively with varyingseverities (N=727)The conclusion of the surveyindicated that COVID-19 is building psychologicaldistress among vulnerable college students asthey are forced to stay home along withworsening financial situations lifestyle changesfamily situations and time spent on variousactivities

lsquoOnline classrsquo is a term which most of us werenrsquotfamiliar with Before this pandemic we neverthought of getting education at home Covid hasaffected all of our lives In past pursuingeducation meant going to the schoolcollege Butnow the whole scenario has changed Childrenare studying and attending classes from homeJust like there are two sides of a coin onlineclasses also have some advantages anddisadvantages

Starting from the advantages it saves time forboth students and teachers as they donrsquot haveto travel All they have to do is to join throughtheir mobiles or laptops Secondly studentsdonrsquot have to necessarily buy books from theshops like they had to do in offline classesbecause they are given pdfs from which they canstudy Therefore it saves money Third it can beattended from anywhere in the world Unlike inthe offline classes where we had to gather at aparticular place Fourth computer basedpractical can be easily understood as studentscan share their screen with teachers Also it iseasy for teachers to explain a topic with the helpof pictures or animations which can be easilyfound on the internet

Last but not the least Parents can keep an eyeon their children whether they are studyingproperly or not

Apart from advantages it has somedisadvantages too First sitting beside thecomputer or mobile for hours affects the eyesightof both students and teachers Doctors arereporting many cases of eyestrain amongchildren since the online classes have startedSecondly students are becoming lazy as theydonrsquot have to go out of their home Like theproverb lsquoAll work and no play makes Jack a dullboyrsquo is really happening Third students canbunk in the online classes easily As they haveno fear of punishment they learned to disobeyand disrespect teachers Fourth students havebeen given lots of assignments as a result ofwhich most students are copying othersassignments and are not learning anything newFifth it is very difficult to communicate asteachers cannot give attention to each studentLastly it can be concluded that no matter howthe classes are being held a student must bededicated and sincere towards their studiesAfter all onersquos future depends on what they do intheir present

An actuary is a business executive professionally trained in the mathematical sciences Actuariesspecialize in the evaluation of financial riskmdashmost often in the context of life health and casualtyinsurance where they design analyse and refine varied programs to meet the insurance needs ofsociety A growing number of actuaries work in the areas of assetliability management and risk managementSome of these actuaries are employed by investment and consulting firms others are employed byinsurance companies

Actuaries have been called financial architects and social mathematicians because their combinedanalytical and business skills help solve a growing variety of financial and social problems Theactuarial profession is a demanding yet rewarding career choice

In a world bombarded with numerical information informed decisions rely on the ability to separatefact from fiction by applying valid statistical analyses and visualizations Statisticians can providecrucial guidance in determining what information is reliable and which predictions may be trustedThey often help search for clues to the solution of a scientific mystery and sometimes keepinvestigators from being misled by false impressions

Thousands of statisticians work in medicine law agriculture public policy marketing manufacturingengineering and other fields in the social and natural sciences The diversity of applications is anexciting aspect of the field and is one more reason why the demand for well-trained statisticianscontinues to be strong

Contributed by Dr Meenu Goel

The curtain lifts on Bryant Elementary Schools Spring Recorder Recital Ninety third-graders fumble with their instruments take a breath

and blow Their parents braced breathe too

as Hot Crossed Buns emerges a little scattershot -- the Normal Distribution brought to life

By Go Tell Aunt Rhodie the audience

is moved by their sheer pretty-goodness though one kid knocks her music to the floor

and another squeaks to demonstrate

the tail two standard deviations below the mean The curve implies

that somewhere on stage another kid

just played a note so sweet he might shatter Mrs Wedermeyers glasses And if

there are a mother and father who think

that child is theirs may they be forgiven even if the child shining in their eyes

is moving his fingers slightly out of rhythm

even if hes never led the bell curve in his life In consecutive measures of almost unison

its easy to believe these children are musicians

Their parents do so stirred by Ode to Joy they rise to their feet with the final phrase

clapping from the darkened auditorium

at once as one heroically like the parents theyve meant to be

EK NAYA SAFAR

Mubarak ho apko zindgi ka naya safar

Naya hai sheher nai hai dagar

Chut gaye kuch rishte purane

But donrsquot worry yaar mil jayenge naye diwane

Kuch tum jaise khuch tum se alag

So just smile and start a new life

Dosti yaari ko zara side mai rakh ke

Edhar gaur famiye janab

Course toh tumne acha chuna hai

Kuch socha hai ya ese hi liya hai

College mai admission jab hota hai

Toh andar khushi ke fuvare futne lagte hai

Lekin syllabus o dekh kar yeh bhi dagmagane lagte hai

Mana CP paas hai vahi maat ghumte rehna

Varna paper mai cafeacute ki menu sheet hi likhte rehna

Donrsquot take a chill pill coz yaha ki teachers hai thori strict

Just because they want you to be the best

Ab kya kare college ka har din mamuli nahi hota

Aur 9 se 4 sirf parai nahi hoti

Gumo firo esh karo but parna na bhulo

Mana es saal kuch zyada hi speed breakers hai

But the best part is hum sab bhi toh sath hai

PONDERINGAll of humanity is but a set of numbers You and I

are nothing more than a statisticJust think about any decision you had to take

recently No matter your choice you might findyourself ending up only as an infinitesimal

decimal in the final percentage of a statisticianrsquosdiscourse Let me give you an example pertinent

to the world we live in today Say yoursquore arepublican and have to decide whether to wear a

mask or not Naturally your political instinctmight warn you against it However you might

still be inclined to wear one because yoursquoregenuinely scared about what the ldquoliberalsrdquo have

to say about the SARS-COV-2 Now now letrsquos notgo off-topic here I know you might be wondering

what yoursquod do if you were in a Republicanrsquos shoesBut thatrsquos not the point

In the end it seldom matters whether you are arepublican or a liberal especially in situations

like these What matters in the end is if you didgo out without wearing that infuriating

smothering mask And if you contracted thewretched virus because of it If yes hard luck

Yoursquore nothing more than one of the 841 millionpeople who have it Thatrsquos all that people aroundthe world will see Not your gender not your ageand certainly not your political belief Of course

there will be studies about the correlation ofthese factors with the incidence rate of the

infections but thatrsquos another story altogether andnot one possibly as broad as the one we talk

aboutMoreover the correlation must not be

confused with causation Now perhaps thatrsquosa story for another day But think about it thisway whether you go to college or drop out of

high school whether you choose to live ordecide to die no matter the decision no

matter your inclination or choice whetheryou like it or not you will be nothing more

than a statisticIt might sound a bit gloomy to be honestWhen I first thought about it I felt almostinsignificant Like a tiny speck of dust in a

galaxy of stars Alas isnrsquot that all that we arethough

A pale blue dot in an ocean of stars Ourplanet one among millions or perhaps

billions of others All 78 billion of us fightingfor a place in the world knowing full well we

canrsquot all possibly have it It might makeanyone feel overwhelmed but therersquos

something about that that is so challenging itis almost inspiring We all know statistics andwe all know life But the true beauty of life lies

in the ability to defy statistics Only onequestion remains are you up for the

challenge

It wonrsquot be any exaggeration If itrsquos said that tools of statistician are used in almost all fields ofcalculation

Be it research finance sports marketing sales health care or population countingIt is a crucial process behind How we make discoveries in science

Making decisions or claiming predictions It plays a crucial play in all situationsStats is involved everywhere from collection to interpretation From explanation to

presentationStatistics helps avoiding a wide variety of analytical traps By making sure that study follow

apt methods in all aspectsChallenging your own assumptions Or drawing data-based conclusions

Statistics is always there Making things crisp and clear

Donrsquot buy that lottery ticket Donrsquot wish for a fallen wicket

Donrsquot predict vivid sunshine or rain Donrsquot bother to cry or complain

Statistically speaking it may all be in vain If you didnrsquot make it the first time why try

again

And if you donrsquot buy wish try andpredict

Why also bother living the life you claim tohave lived

It always seems impossible until it is done

If it makes you happyit doesnt have to make sense to others

When you cant find the sunshinebe the sunshine

Either you run the day or let the day run you

When you focus on the goodthe good gets better

It takes the same energy to worry as it doesto be positive so use your energy to thinkpositive and positive things will happen

The one thing that doesnt abide by majority rule is a persons conscience

Make happiness a priority and be gentle with yourself in the process

College the best start to unfold lifes beauty

Goodbye to the mistakes weve made remember the laughs weve shared

Will never forget these years

If you dont believe in yourself thenno one is going to believe in you So

Believe in Yourself

Be who you are and say what you feelbecause those who mind donrsquot matter and

those who matter donrsquot mind

Success is liking yourself liking what you do and liking how you do it

Happiness is a by-product of an effort to make someone else happy

If you are not willing to risk the unusual you will have to settle for the ordinary

Always keep it clean simple and precise

Hustle until you no longer have to introduce yourself

Dream it Wish it Do it

There are no limits to what you can accomplish except the limits you place

on your own thinking

Croxton and Cowden defines statistics as the science of collection presentation analysis andinterpretation of numerical data Progressively the Statistics subject come to be more and more popular and its application hasbecome more extensive Now almost there is no field of human activity where statistics are not usedNowadays it is used by economists businessmen scientists administrators etc To be more preciseabout the importance of statistics in our life lets discuss some astonishing reasons that we haveoverheard on several occasions

1 Everyone lookout for weather forecasting Have you ever thought how do you acquire thatinformation There are some computer models constructed on the basis of statistical conceptsThese computer models relate past weather with the present weather and predict future weather

2 Statistics frequently used by the researchers They use their statistical skills to collect therelevant data Otherwise it results in a loss of money time and data

3 What do you understand by insurance Everyone has some kind of insurance whether it ismedical home or any other insurance Several businesses use statistical models based on anindividual application to calculate the risk of giving insurance Life tables are indispensable for thesolution of all questions relating to the duration of human life 4 Statistic plays significant role in financial market Statistics are the key of how traders andbusinessmen invest and make money

5 Statistics play a big role in the medical field For testing the efficacy of a manufacturing druginjection or medicine for controlling curing specific ailments most of the applications of medicalfields lies in using the tests of significance (more precisely studentrsquos t-test) The testing of theeffectiveness of a medicine by the manufacturing concern is a must since only after theeffectiveness of the medicine is proven by the sound statistical techniques that it will venture tomanufacture it on a large scale and bring it out in the market By statistical techniques (t and Fsignificance tests) comparative study of different medicines can also be made

(18)

6 In industry Statistical techniques are used in quality testing Companies manufacture manyproducts on a daily basis and every company make sure that they sell the best quality items Butcompanies cannot test all the products so they use sampling techniques which are a very importantaspect of statistical theory 7 We make variety of predictions in daily life For examples we keep the alarm for the morningwhen we donrsquot know that we will be alive in the morning or not Here we use statistics basics to makepredictions

8 Using statistics concepts doctors predict disease Suppose a survey shows that 75-80people have cancer and not able to find the reason Where the statistics is involved there you canhave a better idea on how the cancer may affect your body

BIOSTATISTICS is the application of statisticalmethods in studies in biology andencompasses the design of experiments thecollection of data from them and the analysisand interpretation of data The data comes froma wide range of sources including genomicstudies experiments with cells and organismsand clinical trials Biostatistics is the applicationof statistical principles to questions andproblems in medicine public health or biologyOne can imagine that it might be of interest tocharacterize a given population with respect tothe proportion who has asthma and it wouldalso be important to estimate the magnitude ofthese problems over time or perhaps in differentlocations Statistics is a science of compilingclassifying and tabulating numerical data andexpressing the results in a mathematical andgraphical form whereas biostatistics is thebranch of statistics concerned with themathematical facts and data related to biologicalevents

Francis Galton created the statistical conceptcorrelation Sir Galton for the first time usedstatistical tools to study differences amonghuman population He also invented the use ofquestionnaires surveys for collecting data onhuman communities Biostatistics are the eventand application of statistical method to a goodrange of topic in biology It encompasses theplanning of biological experiments the gatheringand analysis of knowledge from thoseexperiments and therefore the interpretation ofthe results Biostatistics is sometimesdistinguished from the field of biometry basedupon whether applications are in the healthsciences (bio statistics) or in broader biology(biometry example agriculture ecology wildlifebiology) More and more things are nowmeasured quantitatively in medicine and publichealth There is a great deal of inherent variationin most biological processes Public health andmedicine are becoming increasingly quantitative

It is used to test whether the differencebetween two populations is real or by chanceoccurrence to study the correlation betweenattributes in the same population and toevaluate the achievements of public healthprograms Biostatistics has applications in allthe branches of life sciences such as formapping chromosomes for studying thebehavior of genes in a population and forconduction of drug treatment trails etcBiostatistics deals with data arising frombiomedical research It remains a very activeresearch area with complicated time-to-eventdata and missing data emerging in applicationareas including medicine geneticsneuroscience and engineering Recentadvances in biomedical research have creatednew challenges and opportunities forstatisticians and data scientists For examplebig data analysis precision medicine artificialintelligence causal inference and other newresearch fields have inspired data scientists todevelop modern statistical methods andinnovative inference procedures

As technology progresses the physicianencounters more and more quantitative ratherthan descriptive information In one sensestatistics is the language of assembling andhandling quantitative material Even if onersquosconcern is only with the results of other peoplersquosmanipulation and assemblage of data it isimportant to achieve some understanding of thislanguage in order to interpret their resultsproperly Statistics pervades the medicalliterature As a consequence of the increasinglyquantitative nature of public health and medicineand its reliance on statistical methodology themedical literature is replete with reports in whichstatistical techniques are used extensivelyBiostatistics is used to determine how diseasesdevelop progress and spread

For example biostatisticians use statistics topredict the behavior of an illness like flu It is usedto help predict the mortality rate the symptomsand even the time of year people might get it

Over 50 years ago there was a subject whichwas unnoticed and mainly focused on the studyand analysis of data Statisticians urgedacademic statistics to transcend its boundariesbeyond the realm of theoretical statistics Morestress was laid on data presentation Datascience is a discipline which is guided bycomputing informatics operation researchmathematics and statistics

Statistics is treated as the most important tool insorting and analysing data It is beneficial ingiving a deeper vision of the data Statisticswidely depends upon experiments and surveysWith the help of descriptive statisticscalculations like mean median etc can bedone on the data On the other hand inferentialstatistics helps in drawing inferences andconclusions from the population Both domainsof statistics play a very important role in DataScience In order to get a structured data andmaking predictions statistical methods and toolsare very essential They are able to carry outmany analytical tasks

Statistical Analysis is the study of surveying agiven set of data and observing patterns andtrends It is used in research fields to createstatistical models for performing certainexperiments on a population

The focus is to gather information from thesmallest quantity of data The experimentsinvolve accurate calculations and therefore giverespective results Statistics forms the base ofData Science It requires optimization of hugedatabases which is achieved with the help ofdifferent statistical tools In todayrsquos data drivenworld Data Science is turning out to be one ofthe most demanded professions Almost all firmsand companies are in search of data scientistsas the data keeps on piling up and the need ofinterpreting analysing and cleaning it is risingThe ultimate aim of Statistics and Data Scienceis to extricate cognizance from large amounts ofdata

Whenever the word lsquobusinessrsquo is heard lsquosalesrsquo isthe word which comes to our mind next and whatexactly assists sales is STATISTICS Donrsquotbelieve me but I am sure after reading the articleyou would all agree to my point too So what doesa businessman do He manufactures and sellsthe goods produced to the public but both ofthese basic functions of the businessman cannotbe transcended without the help of statistics toolssuch as survey statistics driven softwares tocollect and analyse the demand of the customerand to what extent ie the quantity in which it isrequired in order to maximize their total revenueThe graphs and the tables formed ie the statshelp them to know the exact condition of themarket and its inclination so that they could comeout with offers and discounts in order to attractpublic towards their product maximizing theirsales The businessmen who is believed to bevery quick and accurate in decision making is allassisted by statistics at every point fromanalysing their sales profit margins wages of theemployees the improvements required in theproduct the billing counters are all carriedforward with the help of statistical tools Thefinancial resources required for investing in thebusiness are also arranged according to theassistance given by the data analysts Themarketing and advertisement of the products alsoneeds statistics Now you would be thinking how

amp its regular maintenance is all handled bystatistical applications In order to calculate theaverage mean median loss profit and all theother commerce related terms in businessesdealing with large amount of data is all handledby statisticians Statistics also helps inmaintaining employee performancemanagement A manager collects data aboutemployee productivity such as the number oftasks completed or the number of unitsproduced He or she must analyse data to findways in which an employee should improve toachieve maximum productivity Manycompanies also collect data about employeeengagement and happiness on the job whichcan be tracked to not only keep workersmotivated but ensure they dont leave for otherpositions elsewhere This helps in increasingthe efficiency of the employees and also createsa healthy working environment I have listed lotof points to prove the importance of statistics inbusinesses and hope that you will now agree towhat I mentioned in the beginning of the article

Whenever a method of marketing is thought thepercentage of people to get influenced the agegroup to target the kind of offers to be laid downare all done through statistics You might haveheard that now data is the new oil that means lifeis all surrounded with data and for the data andthe demand for its upkeep and analysis the dataanalysts are required and in big organizationswho actually target all age groups and sell allkinds of products on a large scale have a largedatabase not only of the customers but also oftheir n number of employees So an organizationis incomplete without data and where there isdata there is statistics In fact I would say thatan organization isnrsquot an organization if they donot have data and its proper upkeep in such acase the company will surely drain out so thisactually proves how important statistics hasbecome in the business point of view Thebanking sector canrsquot function without statisticsand this banking business forms the backbone ofthe country since all the customers of the bankhave loads of data for a particular bank account

Statistics is the science of learning from dataStatistical knowledge helps an individual to usethe proper methods for collecting data employthe correct analysis and present the resultseffectively Statistical analysis is thus used inalmost all fields to make sense out of the vastamount of data that is available Thus statisticalmethodologies are not only useful in drawingimportant results but also play a significant role inproducing new findings and understanding thework of others One such field which has wideuse of the statistical techniques andmethodologies is the Insurance Sector Insuranceis basically the business of risk as it involves thetransfer of risk from one party to another

The main incoming and outgoing source ofincome in the business of insurance is throughpremiums and claims respectively Manystatistical models are used to model claimsand losses Parameters for these distributionsare estimated using Method of momentMaximum likelihood estimates etc and thenGoodness of fit testis applied to check howwell our distribution fits to the data Timeseries model plays an important role inforecasting future values Statistics is used toanswer the most important questions for theinsurance industry What percentage ofpolicies are expected to payout How muchmoney the company must expect to payout inclaims Different methods of data collectioneither in primary or secondary form are usedto determine the required reserves premiumand future predictions Apart from this manystatistical methods for eg Linear modelmethod which uses regression as the maintool in determining the factors affectingpremiums Loss distribution method in whichhistogram and bar graphs are made tocompare different categories and complexstatistical tools such as Ruin Theory and Run-off triangles are used to develop newproducts absorb and evaluate risk and ruinwhen balancing claims reserves andpremiums Thus statistics plays anirreplaceable role in the life cycle ofinsurance business for both life and non-life insurance

Statistics help in

Measuring the stability of drugs-II) Production of drugs according to demandsIII) Effectiveness of drugsIV) Quality control of drugs V) Marketing of drugs VI) Testing the side effects of the drug with thehelp of data VII) Going through the procedure of approvaland public distribution of drugs

Statistics in developing a drug

A lot of statistics tools are used duringproduction clinical trials and marketing andpublic distribution of drugs-1 Average (mean median and mode) Usedduring experiments like stability testingcombination of chemicals and checking acidity orbasicity of solutions to calculate mean averageresults2 Standard deviation and variance It is ameasure of testing precision Can be used toevaluate precision at various points in a processor to evaluate the precision between two differentmethods of the experiment3 Q test for rejecting data It is used to checkoutliers in data ie to check unusual deviation ina data set to see if it can be statistically rejected

4 Confidence limits It helps in finding theprobability of the true value being within acalculable range It makes use of multiplyingstandard deviation with studentrsquos t-factor thatdetermines the confidence interval of theobservation at the stated confidence level5 t F Chi-square and other tests Helps incomparing the results of two data sets For egside effects of different medication in the samepopulation6 Correlation Helps to detect the relationbetween two attributes of a data for eg howthe effect of a medicine increases or decreasesdue to the change in dosage how increase ordecrease in temperature affects the stability ofcertain medication

Clinical Trials

Clinical trials are research studies that evaluatenew ways to improve treatments and quality oflife for people with disease and in presentscenario global pandemic COVID-19 Resultsfrom Clinical trials help develop

1 New drugsvaccines 2 New diagnostic tools 3 New clinical procedures

Participants volunteer for clinical trials

(28)

In this method of stratified random sampling isused to divide the volunteers into different stratabased on shared attributes or characteristicssuch as gender medical conditions and otherspecifics These stratarsquos are used in differentphases of clinical trials

Clinical trials have 4 phases

Before trial begins volunteers need tounderstand the potential benefits and potentialrisks before participating in clinical trials thatrsquoswhy pre-clinical phase is conducted to test thenew treatment on animals and healthyvolunteers This part comes under descriptivestatistics where we are using the observed(benefits and risks) for further research Phase 1- In this new treatment is tested for thefirst time to know how treatment affects thebody to determine a safe dose range forvaccine and their side effects It involvesrelatively 20-80 volunteers Stats approach-Association analysis is performed to capture thecorrelations between drug therapeuticindications and side-effects In order to achievethis goal we adopted Fishers exact test whichis a widely used approach for measuring thesignificance of the association between twonominal variables For example to test thesignificance of the association between drugtherapeutic indications A and drug side effect B

Phase 2- The study involves how well a newtreatment or combination of treatment goes wellwith certain types of patients It involves up to300 patient volunteers For example out oftotal cancer patients half of the patients areselected randomly and are given cancertreatment along with new vaccine and other halfare given cancer treatment along with standardtreatment of corona virus Now side effects inboth the cases are noted Aim is to determinewhich combination of treatment will have lessside effects Chi- square test is used tocompare the side effects in both the cases Phase 3- In this phase effectiveness of addinga new treatment to the standard treatment isstudied 100-1000 volunteers participate in thisphase Stats approach- Participants arerandomly split into two groups 1st group(treatment group) receives the standardtreatment + new vaccine and 2nd group (controlgroup) receives standard treatment + placebo(a treatment that looks identical to the newtreatment but contains no active ingredient) Inthis phase mean time taken to develop antibodies in both the groups are compared usingZ-test (Test of significance for difference inmeans)

Phase 4- In this phase no volunteers areinvolved researchersrsquo monitor drug safety andeffectiveness It involves optimal usage

lsquoOnline classrsquo is a term which most of us werenrsquotfamiliar with Before this pandemic we neverthought of getting education at home Covid hasaffected all of our lives In past pursuingeducation meant going to the schoolcollege Butnow the whole scenario has changed Childrenare studying and attending classes from homeJust like there are two sides of a coin onlineclasses also have some advantages anddisadvantages

Starting from the advantages it saves time forboth students and teachers as they donrsquot haveto travel All they have to do is to join throughtheir mobiles or laptops Secondly studentsdonrsquot have to necessarily buy books from theshops like they had to do in offline classesbecause they are given pdfs from which they canstudy Therefore it saves money Third it can beattended from anywhere in the world Unlike inthe offline classes where we had to gather at aparticular place Fourth computer basedpractical can be easily understood as studentscan share their screen with teachers Also it iseasy for teachers to explain a topic with the helpof pictures or animations which can be easilyfound on the internet

Last but not the least Parents can keep an eyeon their children whether they are studyingproperly or not

An actuary is a business executive professionally trained in the mathematical sciences Actuariesspecialize in the evaluation of financial riskmdashmost often in the context of life health and casualtyinsurance where they design analyse and refine varied programs to meet the insurance needs ofsociety A growing number of actuaries work in the areas of assetliability management and risk managementSome of these actuaries are employed by investment and consulting firms others are employed byinsurance companies

Actuaries have been called financial architects and social mathematicians because their combinedanalytical and business skills help solve a growing variety of financial and social problems Theactuarial profession is a demanding yet rewarding career choice

In a world bombarded with numerical information informed decisions rely on the ability to separatefact from fiction by applying valid statistical analyses and visualizations Statisticians can providecrucial guidance in determining what information is reliable and which predictions may be trustedThey often help search for clues to the solution of a scientific mystery and sometimes keepinvestigators from being misled by false impressions

Thousands of statisticians work in medicine law agriculture public policy marketing manufacturingengineering and other fields in the social and natural sciences The diversity of applications is anexciting aspect of the field and is one more reason why the demand for well-trained statisticianscontinues to be strong

Touching Your HeartWith Some

Poetry

Contributed by Dr Komal Goel

by Anubis the Philosomancer

(41)

Contributed by Dr Meenu Goel

The curtain lifts on Bryant Elementary Schools Spring Recorder Recital Ninety third-graders fumble with their instruments take a breath

and blow Their parents braced breathe too

as Hot Crossed Buns emerges a little scattershot -- the Normal Distribution brought to life

By Go Tell Aunt Rhodie the audience

is moved by their sheer pretty-goodness though one kid knocks her music to the floor

and another squeaks to demonstrate

the tail two standard deviations below the mean The curve implies

that somewhere on stage another kid

just played a note so sweet he might shatter Mrs Wedermeyers glasses And if

there are a mother and father who think

that child is theirs may they be forgiven even if the child shining in their eyes

is moving his fingers slightly out of rhythm

even if hes never led the bell curve in his life In consecutive measures of almost unison

its easy to believe these children are musicians

Their parents do so stirred by Ode to Joy they rise to their feet with the final phrase

clapping from the darkened auditorium

at once as one heroically like the parents theyve meant to be

EK NAYA SAFAR

Mubarak ho apko zindgi ka naya safar

Naya hai sheher nai hai dagar

Chut gaye kuch rishte purane

But donrsquot worry yaar mil jayenge naye diwane

Kuch tum jaise khuch tum se alag

So just smile and start a new life

Dosti yaari ko zara side mai rakh ke

Edhar gaur famiye janab

Course toh tumne acha chuna hai

Kuch socha hai ya ese hi liya hai

College mai admission jab hota hai

Toh andar khushi ke fuvare futne lagte hai

Lekin syllabus o dekh kar yeh bhi dagmagane lagte hai

Mana CP paas hai vahi maat ghumte rehna

Varna paper mai cafeacute ki menu sheet hi likhte rehna

Donrsquot take a chill pill coz yaha ki teachers hai thori strict

Just because they want you to be the best

Ab kya kare college ka har din mamuli nahi hota

Aur 9 se 4 sirf parai nahi hoti

Gumo firo esh karo but parna na bhulo

Mana es saal kuch zyada hi speed breakers hai

But the best part is hum sab bhi toh sath hai

PONDERINGAll of humanity is but a set of numbers You and I

are nothing more than a statisticJust think about any decision you had to take

recently No matter your choice you might findyourself ending up only as an infinitesimal

decimal in the final percentage of a statisticianrsquosdiscourse Let me give you an example pertinent

to the world we live in today Say yoursquore arepublican and have to decide whether to wear a

mask or not Naturally your political instinctmight warn you against it However you might

still be inclined to wear one because yoursquoregenuinely scared about what the ldquoliberalsrdquo have

to say about the SARS-COV-2 Now now letrsquos notgo off-topic here I know you might be wondering

what yoursquod do if you were in a Republicanrsquos shoesBut thatrsquos not the point

In the end it seldom matters whether you are arepublican or a liberal especially in situations

like these What matters in the end is if you didgo out without wearing that infuriating

smothering mask And if you contracted thewretched virus because of it If yes hard luck

Yoursquore nothing more than one of the 841 millionpeople who have it Thatrsquos all that people aroundthe world will see Not your gender not your ageand certainly not your political belief Of course

there will be studies about the correlation ofthese factors with the incidence rate of the

infections but thatrsquos another story altogether andnot one possibly as broad as the one we talk

aboutMoreover the correlation must not be

confused with causation Now perhaps thatrsquosa story for another day But think about it thisway whether you go to college or drop out of

high school whether you choose to live ordecide to die no matter the decision no

matter your inclination or choice whetheryou like it or not you will be nothing more

than a statisticIt might sound a bit gloomy to be honestWhen I first thought about it I felt almostinsignificant Like a tiny speck of dust in a

galaxy of stars Alas isnrsquot that all that we arethough

A pale blue dot in an ocean of stars Ourplanet one among millions or perhaps

billions of others All 78 billion of us fightingfor a place in the world knowing full well we

canrsquot all possibly have it It might makeanyone feel overwhelmed but therersquos

something about that that is so challenging itis almost inspiring We all know statistics andwe all know life But the true beauty of life lies

in the ability to defy statistics Only onequestion remains are you up for the

challenge

It wonrsquot be any exaggeration If itrsquos said that tools of statistician are used in almost all fields ofcalculation

Be it research finance sports marketing sales health care or population countingIt is a crucial process behind How we make discoveries in science

Making decisions or claiming predictions It plays a crucial play in all situationsStats is involved everywhere from collection to interpretation From explanation to

presentationStatistics helps avoiding a wide variety of analytical traps By making sure that study follow

apt methods in all aspectsChallenging your own assumptions Or drawing data-based conclusions

Statistics is always there Making things crisp and clear

Donrsquot buy that lottery ticket Donrsquot wish for a fallen wicket

Statistically speaking it may all be in vain If you didnrsquot make it the first time why try

again

And if you donrsquot buy wish try andpredict

Why also bother living the life you claim tohave lived

It always seems impossible until it is done

If it makes you happyit doesnt have to make sense to others

When you cant find the sunshinebe the sunshine

Either you run the day or let the day run you

When you focus on the goodthe good gets better

It takes the same energy to worry as it doesto be positive so use your energy to thinkpositive and positive things will happen

The one thing that doesnt abide by majority rule is a persons conscience

Make happiness a priority and be gentle with yourself in the process

College the best start to unfold lifes beauty

Goodbye to the mistakes weve made remember the laughs weve shared

Will never forget these years

Rise above the storm and you will find sunshine

Do not change the path in front of your dreamswhatever happens do not break those dreams in yourmind You will find difficulties on every step but do

not leave the ground just to choose the stars

If you dont believe in yourself thenno one is going to believe in you So

Believe in Yourself

Be who you are and say what you feelbecause those who mind donrsquot matter and

those who matter donrsquot mind

Success is liking yourself liking what you do and liking how you do it

Happiness is a by-product of an effort to make someone else happy

If you are not willing to risk the unusual you will have to settle for the ordinary

Always keep it clean simple and precise

Hustle until you no longer have to introduce yourself

Dream it Wish it Do it

Excellence is not achieved - it is aspired to and trekked towards The tougher the trek

Sometimes the most beautiful things happen in the most unexpected waysI still canrsquot get over the fact that my 3 years-long and the beautiful journeycame to an end I never thought that I would make such beautiful bonds incollege be it with the teachers or my classmates Mata Sundri College will always have a special place in my heart and in mylife It is this place that made me realize my true potential I entered thecollege with almost no expectations But looking back at the time I nowfeel that those years were the most special and the most beautiful onesThe kind of love and support I received from all the teachers cannot bedescribed in words The personal connection which I still have with myteachers would be missing had I been in some other college I amextremely grateful to them It was because of them that I started loving mysubject Statistics All the hard work put in by my teachers and by myselfpaid off in the end Never did I imagine that I would become the Universitytopper I still feel that I am living in a dream

It is one of my greatest accomplishments Receiving the Medal from theHonrsquoble Education Minister Shri Ramesh Pokhriyal was a matter of pride Ifeel so happy seeing my parents and teachers being proud of me I surelyknow that whenever Irsquoll need some help in the future my teachers willalways be there to guide me The only regret is that we didnrsquot get a chance to greet the teachers and ourfellow classmates one last time due to the pandemic But keeping thataside I will always cherish my journey Thank you Mata Sundri College forthe amazing experience

Croxton and Cowden defines statistics as the science of collection presentation analysis andinterpretation of numerical data Progressively the Statistics subject come to be more and more popular and its application hasbecome more extensive Now almost there is no field of human activity where statistics are not usedNowadays it is used by economists businessmen scientists administrators etc To be more preciseabout the importance of statistics in our life lets discuss some astonishing reasons that we haveoverheard on several occasions

1 Everyone lookout for weather forecasting Have you ever thought how do you acquire thatinformation There are some computer models constructed on the basis of statistical conceptsThese computer models relate past weather with the present weather and predict future weather

2 Statistics frequently used by the researchers They use their statistical skills to collect therelevant data Otherwise it results in a loss of money time and data

3 What do you understand by insurance Everyone has some kind of insurance whether it ismedical home or any other insurance Several businesses use statistical models based on anindividual application to calculate the risk of giving insurance Life tables are indispensable for thesolution of all questions relating to the duration of human life 4 Statistic plays significant role in financial market Statistics are the key of how traders andbusinessmen invest and make money

5 Statistics play a big role in the medical field For testing the efficacy of a manufacturing druginjection or medicine for controlling curing specific ailments most of the applications of medicalfields lies in using the tests of significance (more precisely studentrsquos t-test) The testing of theeffectiveness of a medicine by the manufacturing concern is a must since only after theeffectiveness of the medicine is proven by the sound statistical techniques that it will venture tomanufacture it on a large scale and bring it out in the market By statistical techniques (t and Fsignificance tests) comparative study of different medicines can also be made

(18)

6 In industry Statistical techniques are used in quality testing Companies manufacture manyproducts on a daily basis and every company make sure that they sell the best quality items Butcompanies cannot test all the products so they use sampling techniques which are a very importantaspect of statistical theory 7 We make variety of predictions in daily life For examples we keep the alarm for the morningwhen we donrsquot know that we will be alive in the morning or not Here we use statistics basics to makepredictions

8 Using statistics concepts doctors predict disease Suppose a survey shows that 75-80people have cancer and not able to find the reason Where the statistics is involved there you canhave a better idea on how the cancer may affect your body

9 News reporter makes a prediction of winner for elections based on political campaigns Herestatistics play a very important role to find out who will form the government 10 Statistics data allow us to collect the information around the world The internet is a devisewhich help us to collect the information The fundamental behind the internet is based on statisticsand mathematics concepts 11 Not only in peace times but in war times also statistics can be used very effectively It ispractically not possible to face a war without the factual data concerning the military strength of theenemy in terms of manpower military tanks war aeroplanes missiles ammunition etc

BIOSTATISTICS is the application of statisticalmethods in studies in biology andencompasses the design of experiments thecollection of data from them and the analysisand interpretation of data The data comes froma wide range of sources including genomicstudies experiments with cells and organismsand clinical trials Biostatistics is the applicationof statistical principles to questions andproblems in medicine public health or biologyOne can imagine that it might be of interest tocharacterize a given population with respect tothe proportion who has asthma and it wouldalso be important to estimate the magnitude ofthese problems over time or perhaps in differentlocations Statistics is a science of compilingclassifying and tabulating numerical data andexpressing the results in a mathematical andgraphical form whereas biostatistics is thebranch of statistics concerned with themathematical facts and data related to biologicalevents

Francis Galton created the statistical conceptcorrelation Sir Galton for the first time usedstatistical tools to study differences amonghuman population He also invented the use ofquestionnaires surveys for collecting data onhuman communities Biostatistics are the eventand application of statistical method to a goodrange of topic in biology It encompasses theplanning of biological experiments the gatheringand analysis of knowledge from thoseexperiments and therefore the interpretation ofthe results Biostatistics is sometimesdistinguished from the field of biometry basedupon whether applications are in the healthsciences (bio statistics) or in broader biology(biometry example agriculture ecology wildlifebiology) More and more things are nowmeasured quantitatively in medicine and publichealth There is a great deal of inherent variationin most biological processes Public health andmedicine are becoming increasingly quantitative

(20)

It is used to test whether the differencebetween two populations is real or by chanceoccurrence to study the correlation betweenattributes in the same population and toevaluate the achievements of public healthprograms Biostatistics has applications in allthe branches of life sciences such as formapping chromosomes for studying thebehavior of genes in a population and forconduction of drug treatment trails etcBiostatistics deals with data arising frombiomedical research It remains a very activeresearch area with complicated time-to-eventdata and missing data emerging in applicationareas including medicine geneticsneuroscience and engineering Recentadvances in biomedical research have creatednew challenges and opportunities forstatisticians and data scientists For examplebig data analysis precision medicine artificialintelligence causal inference and other newresearch fields have inspired data scientists todevelop modern statistical methods andinnovative inference procedures

As technology progresses the physicianencounters more and more quantitative ratherthan descriptive information In one sensestatistics is the language of assembling andhandling quantitative material Even if onersquosconcern is only with the results of other peoplersquosmanipulation and assemblage of data it isimportant to achieve some understanding of thislanguage in order to interpret their resultsproperly Statistics pervades the medicalliterature As a consequence of the increasinglyquantitative nature of public health and medicineand its reliance on statistical methodology themedical literature is replete with reports in whichstatistical techniques are used extensivelyBiostatistics is used to determine how diseasesdevelop progress and spread

For example biostatisticians use statistics topredict the behavior of an illness like flu It is usedto help predict the mortality rate the symptomsand even the time of year people might get it

Over 50 years ago there was a subject whichwas unnoticed and mainly focused on the studyand analysis of data Statisticians urgedacademic statistics to transcend its boundariesbeyond the realm of theoretical statistics Morestress was laid on data presentation Datascience is a discipline which is guided bycomputing informatics operation researchmathematics and statistics

Statistics is treated as the most important tool insorting and analysing data It is beneficial ingiving a deeper vision of the data Statisticswidely depends upon experiments and surveysWith the help of descriptive statisticscalculations like mean median etc can bedone on the data On the other hand inferentialstatistics helps in drawing inferences andconclusions from the population Both domainsof statistics play a very important role in DataScience In order to get a structured data andmaking predictions statistical methods and toolsare very essential They are able to carry outmany analytical tasks

Statistical Analysis is the study of surveying agiven set of data and observing patterns andtrends It is used in research fields to createstatistical models for performing certainexperiments on a population

The focus is to gather information from thesmallest quantity of data The experimentsinvolve accurate calculations and therefore giverespective results Statistics forms the base ofData Science It requires optimization of hugedatabases which is achieved with the help ofdifferent statistical tools In todayrsquos data drivenworld Data Science is turning out to be one ofthe most demanded professions Almost all firmsand companies are in search of data scientistsas the data keeps on piling up and the need ofinterpreting analysing and cleaning it is risingThe ultimate aim of Statistics and Data Scienceis to extricate cognizance from large amounts ofdata

Whenever the word lsquobusinessrsquo is heard lsquosalesrsquo isthe word which comes to our mind next and whatexactly assists sales is STATISTICS Donrsquotbelieve me but I am sure after reading the articleyou would all agree to my point too So what doesa businessman do He manufactures and sellsthe goods produced to the public but both ofthese basic functions of the businessman cannotbe transcended without the help of statistics toolssuch as survey statistics driven softwares tocollect and analyse the demand of the customerand to what extent ie the quantity in which it isrequired in order to maximize their total revenueThe graphs and the tables formed ie the statshelp them to know the exact condition of themarket and its inclination so that they could comeout with offers and discounts in order to attractpublic towards their product maximizing theirsales The businessmen who is believed to bevery quick and accurate in decision making is allassisted by statistics at every point fromanalysing their sales profit margins wages of theemployees the improvements required in theproduct the billing counters are all carriedforward with the help of statistical tools Thefinancial resources required for investing in thebusiness are also arranged according to theassistance given by the data analysts Themarketing and advertisement of the products alsoneeds statistics Now you would be thinking how

amp its regular maintenance is all handled bystatistical applications In order to calculate theaverage mean median loss profit and all theother commerce related terms in businessesdealing with large amount of data is all handledby statisticians Statistics also helps inmaintaining employee performancemanagement A manager collects data aboutemployee productivity such as the number oftasks completed or the number of unitsproduced He or she must analyse data to findways in which an employee should improve toachieve maximum productivity Manycompanies also collect data about employeeengagement and happiness on the job whichcan be tracked to not only keep workersmotivated but ensure they dont leave for otherpositions elsewhere This helps in increasingthe efficiency of the employees and also createsa healthy working environment I have listed lotof points to prove the importance of statistics inbusinesses and hope that you will now agree towhat I mentioned in the beginning of the article

Whenever a method of marketing is thought thepercentage of people to get influenced the agegroup to target the kind of offers to be laid downare all done through statistics You might haveheard that now data is the new oil that means lifeis all surrounded with data and for the data andthe demand for its upkeep and analysis the dataanalysts are required and in big organizationswho actually target all age groups and sell allkinds of products on a large scale have a largedatabase not only of the customers but also oftheir n number of employees So an organizationis incomplete without data and where there isdata there is statistics In fact I would say thatan organization isnrsquot an organization if they donot have data and its proper upkeep in such acase the company will surely drain out so thisactually proves how important statistics hasbecome in the business point of view Thebanking sector canrsquot function without statisticsand this banking business forms the backbone ofthe country since all the customers of the bankhave loads of data for a particular bank account

Statistics is the science of learning from dataStatistical knowledge helps an individual to usethe proper methods for collecting data employthe correct analysis and present the resultseffectively Statistical analysis is thus used inalmost all fields to make sense out of the vastamount of data that is available Thus statisticalmethodologies are not only useful in drawingimportant results but also play a significant role inproducing new findings and understanding thework of others One such field which has wideuse of the statistical techniques andmethodologies is the Insurance Sector Insuranceis basically the business of risk as it involves thetransfer of risk from one party to another

The main incoming and outgoing source ofincome in the business of insurance is throughpremiums and claims respectively Manystatistical models are used to model claimsand losses Parameters for these distributionsare estimated using Method of momentMaximum likelihood estimates etc and thenGoodness of fit testis applied to check howwell our distribution fits to the data Timeseries model plays an important role inforecasting future values Statistics is used toanswer the most important questions for theinsurance industry What percentage ofpolicies are expected to payout How muchmoney the company must expect to payout inclaims Different methods of data collectioneither in primary or secondary form are usedto determine the required reserves premiumand future predictions Apart from this manystatistical methods for eg Linear modelmethod which uses regression as the maintool in determining the factors affectingpremiums Loss distribution method in whichhistogram and bar graphs are made tocompare different categories and complexstatistical tools such as Ruin Theory and Run-off triangles are used to develop newproducts absorb and evaluate risk and ruinwhen balancing claims reserves andpremiums Thus statistics plays anirreplaceable role in the life cycle ofinsurance business for both life and non-life insurance

Statistics help in

Measuring the stability of drugs-II) Production of drugs according to demandsIII) Effectiveness of drugsIV) Quality control of drugs V) Marketing of drugs VI) Testing the side effects of the drug with thehelp of data VII) Going through the procedure of approvaland public distribution of drugs

Statistics in developing a drug

A lot of statistics tools are used duringproduction clinical trials and marketing andpublic distribution of drugs-1 Average (mean median and mode) Usedduring experiments like stability testingcombination of chemicals and checking acidity orbasicity of solutions to calculate mean averageresults2 Standard deviation and variance It is ameasure of testing precision Can be used toevaluate precision at various points in a processor to evaluate the precision between two differentmethods of the experiment3 Q test for rejecting data It is used to checkoutliers in data ie to check unusual deviation ina data set to see if it can be statistically rejected

4 Confidence limits It helps in finding theprobability of the true value being within acalculable range It makes use of multiplyingstandard deviation with studentrsquos t-factor thatdetermines the confidence interval of theobservation at the stated confidence level5 t F Chi-square and other tests Helps incomparing the results of two data sets For egside effects of different medication in the samepopulation6 Correlation Helps to detect the relationbetween two attributes of a data for eg howthe effect of a medicine increases or decreasesdue to the change in dosage how increase ordecrease in temperature affects the stability ofcertain medication

Clinical Trials

Clinical trials are research studies that evaluatenew ways to improve treatments and quality oflife for people with disease and in presentscenario global pandemic COVID-19 Resultsfrom Clinical trials help develop

1 New drugsvaccines 2 New diagnostic tools 3 New clinical procedures

Participants volunteer for clinical trials

(28)

In this method of stratified random sampling isused to divide the volunteers into different stratabased on shared attributes or characteristicssuch as gender medical conditions and otherspecifics These stratarsquos are used in differentphases of clinical trials

Clinical trials have 4 phases

Before trial begins volunteers need tounderstand the potential benefits and potentialrisks before participating in clinical trials thatrsquoswhy pre-clinical phase is conducted to test thenew treatment on animals and healthyvolunteers This part comes under descriptivestatistics where we are using the observed(benefits and risks) for further research Phase 1- In this new treatment is tested for thefirst time to know how treatment affects thebody to determine a safe dose range forvaccine and their side effects It involvesrelatively 20-80 volunteers Stats approach-Association analysis is performed to capture thecorrelations between drug therapeuticindications and side-effects In order to achievethis goal we adopted Fishers exact test whichis a widely used approach for measuring thesignificance of the association between twonominal variables For example to test thesignificance of the association between drugtherapeutic indications A and drug side effect B

Phase 2- The study involves how well a newtreatment or combination of treatment goes wellwith certain types of patients It involves up to300 patient volunteers For example out oftotal cancer patients half of the patients areselected randomly and are given cancertreatment along with new vaccine and other halfare given cancer treatment along with standardtreatment of corona virus Now side effects inboth the cases are noted Aim is to determinewhich combination of treatment will have lessside effects Chi- square test is used tocompare the side effects in both the cases Phase 3- In this phase effectiveness of addinga new treatment to the standard treatment isstudied 100-1000 volunteers participate in thisphase Stats approach- Participants arerandomly split into two groups 1st group(treatment group) receives the standardtreatment + new vaccine and 2nd group (controlgroup) receives standard treatment + placebo(a treatment that looks identical to the newtreatment but contains no active ingredient) Inthis phase mean time taken to develop antibodies in both the groups are compared usingZ-test (Test of significance for difference inmeans)

Phase 4- In this phase no volunteers areinvolved researchersrsquo monitor drug safety andeffectiveness It involves optimal usage

Let me tell you why Python is a number oneoption for data analysis-

By Tanisha Gupta ( 3rd Year )

gtgt Easy to LearnBeing involved in development for web servicesmobile apps as well as coding Yes it is one ofthe most famous language characteristics Morethan that a low and thus fast learning curve isthe next pre-eminence of Python whencomparing it with older languages on offer

gtgt Well-SupportedHaving the experience of using some tools forfree you probably know that it is a challenge toget decent support but thatrsquos not the case withPython Despite the high simplicity there can besituations when you still need help with PythonBeing in widespread use like in industries oracademic areas Python has a broad array ofhelpful libraries with tons of helpful and supportmaterials The great benefit is that all thelibraries are available at no cost

gtgt ScalabilityThis Pythonrsquos feature is closely connected withthe previous option Comparing with otherlanguages like R Java python is much fasterand more scalable Therefore it is good invarious fields that can solve a wide range ofproblems Thatrsquos why many companies havemigrated to Python

(34)

gtgt Huge Libraries CollectionAs I have already mentioned Python is one ofthe most supported languages nowadays Ithas a long list of totally free libraries availablefor all the users Thatrsquos a key factor that givesa strong push for Python If yoursquore involved inthe field more likely you are acquainted withsuch names as Pandas SciPy Stats ModelsMatplotlib etc libraries that are intensivelyutilized in the data science community Hereyou can easily find a solution needed forhassle-free work without additional expenses

gtgt Graphics and Visualization ToolsItrsquos a well-known fact that visual information ismuch easier to understand operate andremember So here is some good news foryou There is a pack of diverse visualizationoptions available that makes python a must-have tool not only for data analysis but for alldata science You can make the data moreaccessible and easier to use by means ofcreating various charts and graphics as wellas interactive plots Always remember that thesuccess of your business directly depends onthe ability to extract knowledge and insightsfrom data to make effective strategicdecisions stay competitive and makeprogress and Python is the internationallyclaimed programming language to help us inhandling our data in a better manner for avariety of causes

A registered clinical psychologist in Honk Kongnamed Zanonia Chiu said - ldquoGoing to school hadbeen a struggle for some children (withdepression) prior to the pandemic but at leastthey had school routines to stick with Now thatschools are closed some lock themselves upinside their rooms for weeks refusing to takeshowers eat or leave their beds For somechildren with depression there will beconsiderable difficulties adjusting back to normallife when college resumesrdquo and according to anonline survey conducted with the study periodfrom April 2020 to May 2020 - Total 531372 and 243 had symptoms of depressionanxiety and stress respectively with varyingseverities (N=727)The conclusion of the surveyindicated that COVID-19 is building psychologicaldistress among vulnerable college students asthey are forced to stay home along withworsening financial situations lifestyle changesfamily situations and time spent on variousactivities

Sounds so interesting and happening right Itis true indeed but along with stressful timeaside Along with the perks of enjoyingfreedom more than ever there comesacademic pressure tasks of separation fromfamilies career building futureresponsibilities etc Boarding on with thecollege life is a stressful time for manystudents thereby affecting their mental healthMental health problems are very commonamong college students and have been anincreasing concern However the COVID-19pandemic situation has brought this vulnerablepopulation into renewed focus Following thepandemic schools colleges offices andalmost every place that involved humaninteraction was shut It is important to note thatcollegeschool or even a normal routine areimportant coping mechanisms for youngpeople with mental health issues and wheneverything is shut down they lose an anchor inlife and their symptoms could relapse

Mental health among students is a big concernhowever ldquoUNTREATEDrdquo mental illnesses are amuch bigger and exponentially growingconcern Reaching out is an important step formental health issues to be addressed andtreated but reach out to who This is the pointwhere our institution should take over Collegesplay a big role in this stage Colleges doaddress this issue through means of orientationsessions and workshops but there is still a needto address mental health more directly Themethods to address mental health issuesshould be accessible feasible and affordablefor the students For example at NorthwesternUniversity student feedback led orientationenabled organizers to shift their focus fromexpert speakers to student testimonials Meansto address the issue vary from traditionalpresentations and panel discussions to roleplays small group discussions etc Herestudents learn how to recognize mental illnesssymptoms where to find resources andsupport and how to talk to friends who mightbe struggling

The findings of this study highlighted theurgent need to develop interventions andpreventive strategies to address the mentalhealth of college students Another InterviewSurvey study conducted by the Journal ofMedical Internet Research highlighted that of195 students 138 (71) indicated increasedstress and anxiety due to the COVID-19outbreak Multiple stressors were identified thatcontributed to the increased levels of stressanxiety and depressive thoughts amongstudents These included fear and worry abouttheir own health and of their loved ones(177195 91 reported negative impacts ofthe pandemic) difficulty in concentrating(173195 89) disruptions to sleepingpatterns (168195 86) decreased socialinteractions due to physical distancing(167195 86) and increased concerns onacademic performance (159195 82) Tocope with stress and anxiety participants havesought support from others and helpedthemselves by adopting either negative orpositive coping mechanisms It is important toknow that creating awareness about any issueis never enough action is what is neededTaking leave from workschool because of a fluor a fracture is acceptable and might even helpin the process of cure and healing howevertaking time off because of stress from a mentalillness such as anxiety or depressionunfortunately is not

lsquoOnline classrsquo is a term which most of us werenrsquotfamiliar with Before this pandemic we neverthought of getting education at home Covid hasaffected all of our lives In past pursuingeducation meant going to the schoolcollege Butnow the whole scenario has changed Childrenare studying and attending classes from homeJust like there are two sides of a coin onlineclasses also have some advantages anddisadvantages

Starting from the advantages it saves time forboth students and teachers as they donrsquot haveto travel All they have to do is to join throughtheir mobiles or laptops Secondly studentsdonrsquot have to necessarily buy books from theshops like they had to do in offline classesbecause they are given pdfs from which they canstudy Therefore it saves money Third it can beattended from anywhere in the world Unlike inthe offline classes where we had to gather at aparticular place Fourth computer basedpractical can be easily understood as studentscan share their screen with teachers Also it iseasy for teachers to explain a topic with the helpof pictures or animations which can be easilyfound on the internet

Last but not the least Parents can keep an eyeon their children whether they are studyingproperly or not

Apart from advantages it has somedisadvantages too First sitting beside thecomputer or mobile for hours affects the eyesightof both students and teachers Doctors arereporting many cases of eyestrain amongchildren since the online classes have startedSecondly students are becoming lazy as theydonrsquot have to go out of their home Like theproverb lsquoAll work and no play makes Jack a dullboyrsquo is really happening Third students canbunk in the online classes easily As they haveno fear of punishment they learned to disobeyand disrespect teachers Fourth students havebeen given lots of assignments as a result ofwhich most students are copying othersassignments and are not learning anything newFifth it is very difficult to communicate asteachers cannot give attention to each studentLastly it can be concluded that no matter howthe classes are being held a student must bededicated and sincere towards their studiesAfter all onersquos future depends on what they do intheir present

An actuary is a business executive professionally trained in the mathematical sciences Actuariesspecialize in the evaluation of financial riskmdashmost often in the context of life health and casualtyinsurance where they design analyse and refine varied programs to meet the insurance needs ofsociety A growing number of actuaries work in the areas of assetliability management and risk managementSome of these actuaries are employed by investment and consulting firms others are employed byinsurance companies

Actuaries have been called financial architects and social mathematicians because their combinedanalytical and business skills help solve a growing variety of financial and social problems Theactuarial profession is a demanding yet rewarding career choice

In a world bombarded with numerical information informed decisions rely on the ability to separatefact from fiction by applying valid statistical analyses and visualizations Statisticians can providecrucial guidance in determining what information is reliable and which predictions may be trustedThey often help search for clues to the solution of a scientific mystery and sometimes keepinvestigators from being misled by false impressions

Thousands of statisticians work in medicine law agriculture public policy marketing manufacturingengineering and other fields in the social and natural sciences The diversity of applications is anexciting aspect of the field and is one more reason why the demand for well-trained statisticianscontinues to be strong

Poetry

Contributed by Dr Komal Goel

(41)

Contributed by Dr Meenu Goel

The curtain lifts on Bryant Elementary Schools Spring Recorder Recital Ninety third-graders fumble with their instruments take a breath

and blow Their parents braced breathe too

as Hot Crossed Buns emerges a little scattershot -- the Normal Distribution brought to life

By Go Tell Aunt Rhodie the audience

is moved by their sheer pretty-goodness though one kid knocks her music to the floor

and another squeaks to demonstrate

the tail two standard deviations below the mean The curve implies

that somewhere on stage another kid

just played a note so sweet he might shatter Mrs Wedermeyers glasses And if

there are a mother and father who think

that child is theirs may they be forgiven even if the child shining in their eyes

is moving his fingers slightly out of rhythm

even if hes never led the bell curve in his life In consecutive measures of almost unison

its easy to believe these children are musicians

Their parents do so stirred by Ode to Joy they rise to their feet with the final phrase

clapping from the darkened auditorium

at once as one heroically like the parents theyve meant to be

EK NAYA SAFAR

Mubarak ho apko zindgi ka naya safar

Naya hai sheher nai hai dagar

Chut gaye kuch rishte purane

But donrsquot worry yaar mil jayenge naye diwane

Kuch tum jaise khuch tum se alag

So just smile and start a new life

Dosti yaari ko zara side mai rakh ke

Edhar gaur famiye janab

Course toh tumne acha chuna hai

Kuch socha hai ya ese hi liya hai

College mai admission jab hota hai

Toh andar khushi ke fuvare futne lagte hai

Lekin syllabus o dekh kar yeh bhi dagmagane lagte hai

Mana CP paas hai vahi maat ghumte rehna

Varna paper mai cafeacute ki menu sheet hi likhte rehna

Donrsquot take a chill pill coz yaha ki teachers hai thori strict

Just because they want you to be the best

Ab kya kare college ka har din mamuli nahi hota

Aur 9 se 4 sirf parai nahi hoti

Gumo firo esh karo but parna na bhulo

Mana es saal kuch zyada hi speed breakers hai

But the best part is hum sab bhi toh sath hai

PONDERINGAll of humanity is but a set of numbers You and I

are nothing more than a statisticJust think about any decision you had to take

recently No matter your choice you might findyourself ending up only as an infinitesimal

decimal in the final percentage of a statisticianrsquosdiscourse Let me give you an example pertinent

to the world we live in today Say yoursquore arepublican and have to decide whether to wear a

mask or not Naturally your political instinctmight warn you against it However you might

still be inclined to wear one because yoursquoregenuinely scared about what the ldquoliberalsrdquo have

to say about the SARS-COV-2 Now now letrsquos notgo off-topic here I know you might be wondering

what yoursquod do if you were in a Republicanrsquos shoesBut thatrsquos not the point

In the end it seldom matters whether you are arepublican or a liberal especially in situations

like these What matters in the end is if you didgo out without wearing that infuriating

smothering mask And if you contracted thewretched virus because of it If yes hard luck

Yoursquore nothing more than one of the 841 millionpeople who have it Thatrsquos all that people aroundthe world will see Not your gender not your ageand certainly not your political belief Of course

there will be studies about the correlation ofthese factors with the incidence rate of the

infections but thatrsquos another story altogether andnot one possibly as broad as the one we talk

aboutMoreover the correlation must not be

confused with causation Now perhaps thatrsquosa story for another day But think about it thisway whether you go to college or drop out of

high school whether you choose to live ordecide to die no matter the decision no

matter your inclination or choice whetheryou like it or not you will be nothing more

than a statisticIt might sound a bit gloomy to be honestWhen I first thought about it I felt almostinsignificant Like a tiny speck of dust in a

galaxy of stars Alas isnrsquot that all that we arethough

A pale blue dot in an ocean of stars Ourplanet one among millions or perhaps

billions of others All 78 billion of us fightingfor a place in the world knowing full well we

canrsquot all possibly have it It might makeanyone feel overwhelmed but therersquos

something about that that is so challenging itis almost inspiring We all know statistics andwe all know life But the true beauty of life lies

in the ability to defy statistics Only onequestion remains are you up for the

challenge

It wonrsquot be any exaggeration If itrsquos said that tools of statistician are used in almost all fields ofcalculation

Be it research finance sports marketing sales health care or population countingIt is a crucial process behind How we make discoveries in science

Making decisions or claiming predictions It plays a crucial play in all situationsStats is involved everywhere from collection to interpretation From explanation to

presentationStatistics helps avoiding a wide variety of analytical traps By making sure that study follow

apt methods in all aspectsChallenging your own assumptions Or drawing data-based conclusions

Statistics is always there Making things crisp and clear

It always seems impossible until it is done

If it makes you happyit doesnt have to make sense to others

When you cant find the sunshinebe the sunshine

Either you run the day or let the day run you

When you focus on the goodthe good gets better

It takes the same energy to worry as it doesto be positive so use your energy to thinkpositive and positive things will happen

The one thing that doesnt abide by majority rule is a persons conscience

Make happiness a priority and be gentle with yourself in the process

College the best start to unfold lifes beauty

Goodbye to the mistakes weve made remember the laughs weve shared

Will never forget these years

People are capable at anytime in their lives of doing what they dream of

Believe in Yourself

Be who you are and say what you feelbecause those who mind donrsquot matter and

those who matter donrsquot mind

Success is liking yourself liking what you do and liking how you do it

Happiness is a by-product of an effort to make someone else happy

If you are not willing to risk the unusual you will have to settle for the ordinary

Always keep it clean simple and precise

Hustle until you no longer have to introduce yourself

Dream it Wish it Do it

Croxton and Cowden defines statistics as the science of collection presentation analysis andinterpretation of numerical data Progressively the Statistics subject come to be more and more popular and its application hasbecome more extensive Now almost there is no field of human activity where statistics are not usedNowadays it is used by economists businessmen scientists administrators etc To be more preciseabout the importance of statistics in our life lets discuss some astonishing reasons that we haveoverheard on several occasions

1 Everyone lookout for weather forecasting Have you ever thought how do you acquire thatinformation There are some computer models constructed on the basis of statistical conceptsThese computer models relate past weather with the present weather and predict future weather

2 Statistics frequently used by the researchers They use their statistical skills to collect therelevant data Otherwise it results in a loss of money time and data

3 What do you understand by insurance Everyone has some kind of insurance whether it ismedical home or any other insurance Several businesses use statistical models based on anindividual application to calculate the risk of giving insurance Life tables are indispensable for thesolution of all questions relating to the duration of human life 4 Statistic plays significant role in financial market Statistics are the key of how traders andbusinessmen invest and make money

5 Statistics play a big role in the medical field For testing the efficacy of a manufacturing druginjection or medicine for controlling curing specific ailments most of the applications of medicalfields lies in using the tests of significance (more precisely studentrsquos t-test) The testing of theeffectiveness of a medicine by the manufacturing concern is a must since only after theeffectiveness of the medicine is proven by the sound statistical techniques that it will venture tomanufacture it on a large scale and bring it out in the market By statistical techniques (t and Fsignificance tests) comparative study of different medicines can also be made

(18)

6 In industry Statistical techniques are used in quality testing Companies manufacture manyproducts on a daily basis and every company make sure that they sell the best quality items Butcompanies cannot test all the products so they use sampling techniques which are a very importantaspect of statistical theory 7 We make variety of predictions in daily life For examples we keep the alarm for the morningwhen we donrsquot know that we will be alive in the morning or not Here we use statistics basics to makepredictions

8 Using statistics concepts doctors predict disease Suppose a survey shows that 75-80people have cancer and not able to find the reason Where the statistics is involved there you canhave a better idea on how the cancer may affect your body

9 News reporter makes a prediction of winner for elections based on political campaigns Herestatistics play a very important role to find out who will form the government 10 Statistics data allow us to collect the information around the world The internet is a devisewhich help us to collect the information The fundamental behind the internet is based on statisticsand mathematics concepts 11 Not only in peace times but in war times also statistics can be used very effectively It ispractically not possible to face a war without the factual data concerning the military strength of theenemy in terms of manpower military tanks war aeroplanes missiles ammunition etc

BIOSTATISTICS is the application of statisticalmethods in studies in biology andencompasses the design of experiments thecollection of data from them and the analysisand interpretation of data The data comes froma wide range of sources including genomicstudies experiments with cells and organismsand clinical trials Biostatistics is the applicationof statistical principles to questions andproblems in medicine public health or biologyOne can imagine that it might be of interest tocharacterize a given population with respect tothe proportion who has asthma and it wouldalso be important to estimate the magnitude ofthese problems over time or perhaps in differentlocations Statistics is a science of compilingclassifying and tabulating numerical data andexpressing the results in a mathematical andgraphical form whereas biostatistics is thebranch of statistics concerned with themathematical facts and data related to biologicalevents

Francis Galton created the statistical conceptcorrelation Sir Galton for the first time usedstatistical tools to study differences amonghuman population He also invented the use ofquestionnaires surveys for collecting data onhuman communities Biostatistics are the eventand application of statistical method to a goodrange of topic in biology It encompasses theplanning of biological experiments the gatheringand analysis of knowledge from thoseexperiments and therefore the interpretation ofthe results Biostatistics is sometimesdistinguished from the field of biometry basedupon whether applications are in the healthsciences (bio statistics) or in broader biology(biometry example agriculture ecology wildlifebiology) More and more things are nowmeasured quantitatively in medicine and publichealth There is a great deal of inherent variationin most biological processes Public health andmedicine are becoming increasingly quantitative

(20)

It is used to test whether the differencebetween two populations is real or by chanceoccurrence to study the correlation betweenattributes in the same population and toevaluate the achievements of public healthprograms Biostatistics has applications in allthe branches of life sciences such as formapping chromosomes for studying thebehavior of genes in a population and forconduction of drug treatment trails etcBiostatistics deals with data arising frombiomedical research It remains a very activeresearch area with complicated time-to-eventdata and missing data emerging in applicationareas including medicine geneticsneuroscience and engineering Recentadvances in biomedical research have creatednew challenges and opportunities forstatisticians and data scientists For examplebig data analysis precision medicine artificialintelligence causal inference and other newresearch fields have inspired data scientists todevelop modern statistical methods andinnovative inference procedures

As technology progresses the physicianencounters more and more quantitative ratherthan descriptive information In one sensestatistics is the language of assembling andhandling quantitative material Even if onersquosconcern is only with the results of other peoplersquosmanipulation and assemblage of data it isimportant to achieve some understanding of thislanguage in order to interpret their resultsproperly Statistics pervades the medicalliterature As a consequence of the increasinglyquantitative nature of public health and medicineand its reliance on statistical methodology themedical literature is replete with reports in whichstatistical techniques are used extensivelyBiostatistics is used to determine how diseasesdevelop progress and spread

For example biostatisticians use statistics topredict the behavior of an illness like flu It is usedto help predict the mortality rate the symptomsand even the time of year people might get it

Over 50 years ago there was a subject whichwas unnoticed and mainly focused on the studyand analysis of data Statisticians urgedacademic statistics to transcend its boundariesbeyond the realm of theoretical statistics Morestress was laid on data presentation Datascience is a discipline which is guided bycomputing informatics operation researchmathematics and statistics

Statistics is treated as the most important tool insorting and analysing data It is beneficial ingiving a deeper vision of the data Statisticswidely depends upon experiments and surveysWith the help of descriptive statisticscalculations like mean median etc can bedone on the data On the other hand inferentialstatistics helps in drawing inferences andconclusions from the population Both domainsof statistics play a very important role in DataScience In order to get a structured data andmaking predictions statistical methods and toolsare very essential They are able to carry outmany analytical tasks

Statistical Analysis is the study of surveying agiven set of data and observing patterns andtrends It is used in research fields to createstatistical models for performing certainexperiments on a population

The focus is to gather information from thesmallest quantity of data The experimentsinvolve accurate calculations and therefore giverespective results Statistics forms the base ofData Science It requires optimization of hugedatabases which is achieved with the help ofdifferent statistical tools In todayrsquos data drivenworld Data Science is turning out to be one ofthe most demanded professions Almost all firmsand companies are in search of data scientistsas the data keeps on piling up and the need ofinterpreting analysing and cleaning it is risingThe ultimate aim of Statistics and Data Scienceis to extricate cognizance from large amounts ofdata

Whenever the word lsquobusinessrsquo is heard lsquosalesrsquo isthe word which comes to our mind next and whatexactly assists sales is STATISTICS Donrsquotbelieve me but I am sure after reading the articleyou would all agree to my point too So what doesa businessman do He manufactures and sellsthe goods produced to the public but both ofthese basic functions of the businessman cannotbe transcended without the help of statistics toolssuch as survey statistics driven softwares tocollect and analyse the demand of the customerand to what extent ie the quantity in which it isrequired in order to maximize their total revenueThe graphs and the tables formed ie the statshelp them to know the exact condition of themarket and its inclination so that they could comeout with offers and discounts in order to attractpublic towards their product maximizing theirsales The businessmen who is believed to bevery quick and accurate in decision making is allassisted by statistics at every point fromanalysing their sales profit margins wages of theemployees the improvements required in theproduct the billing counters are all carriedforward with the help of statistical tools Thefinancial resources required for investing in thebusiness are also arranged according to theassistance given by the data analysts Themarketing and advertisement of the products alsoneeds statistics Now you would be thinking how

amp its regular maintenance is all handled bystatistical applications In order to calculate theaverage mean median loss profit and all theother commerce related terms in businessesdealing with large amount of data is all handledby statisticians Statistics also helps inmaintaining employee performancemanagement A manager collects data aboutemployee productivity such as the number oftasks completed or the number of unitsproduced He or she must analyse data to findways in which an employee should improve toachieve maximum productivity Manycompanies also collect data about employeeengagement and happiness on the job whichcan be tracked to not only keep workersmotivated but ensure they dont leave for otherpositions elsewhere This helps in increasingthe efficiency of the employees and also createsa healthy working environment I have listed lotof points to prove the importance of statistics inbusinesses and hope that you will now agree towhat I mentioned in the beginning of the article

Whenever a method of marketing is thought thepercentage of people to get influenced the agegroup to target the kind of offers to be laid downare all done through statistics You might haveheard that now data is the new oil that means lifeis all surrounded with data and for the data andthe demand for its upkeep and analysis the dataanalysts are required and in big organizationswho actually target all age groups and sell allkinds of products on a large scale have a largedatabase not only of the customers but also oftheir n number of employees So an organizationis incomplete without data and where there isdata there is statistics In fact I would say thatan organization isnrsquot an organization if they donot have data and its proper upkeep in such acase the company will surely drain out so thisactually proves how important statistics hasbecome in the business point of view Thebanking sector canrsquot function without statisticsand this banking business forms the backbone ofthe country since all the customers of the bankhave loads of data for a particular bank account

Statistics is the science of learning from dataStatistical knowledge helps an individual to usethe proper methods for collecting data employthe correct analysis and present the resultseffectively Statistical analysis is thus used inalmost all fields to make sense out of the vastamount of data that is available Thus statisticalmethodologies are not only useful in drawingimportant results but also play a significant role inproducing new findings and understanding thework of others One such field which has wideuse of the statistical techniques andmethodologies is the Insurance Sector Insuranceis basically the business of risk as it involves thetransfer of risk from one party to another

The main incoming and outgoing source ofincome in the business of insurance is throughpremiums and claims respectively Manystatistical models are used to model claimsand losses Parameters for these distributionsare estimated using Method of momentMaximum likelihood estimates etc and thenGoodness of fit testis applied to check howwell our distribution fits to the data Timeseries model plays an important role inforecasting future values Statistics is used toanswer the most important questions for theinsurance industry What percentage ofpolicies are expected to payout How muchmoney the company must expect to payout inclaims Different methods of data collectioneither in primary or secondary form are usedto determine the required reserves premiumand future predictions Apart from this manystatistical methods for eg Linear modelmethod which uses regression as the maintool in determining the factors affectingpremiums Loss distribution method in whichhistogram and bar graphs are made tocompare different categories and complexstatistical tools such as Ruin Theory and Run-off triangles are used to develop newproducts absorb and evaluate risk and ruinwhen balancing claims reserves andpremiums Thus statistics plays anirreplaceable role in the life cycle ofinsurance business for both life and non-life insurance

Statistics help in

Measuring the stability of drugs-II) Production of drugs according to demandsIII) Effectiveness of drugsIV) Quality control of drugs V) Marketing of drugs VI) Testing the side effects of the drug with thehelp of data VII) Going through the procedure of approvaland public distribution of drugs

Statistics in developing a drug

A lot of statistics tools are used duringproduction clinical trials and marketing andpublic distribution of drugs-1 Average (mean median and mode) Usedduring experiments like stability testingcombination of chemicals and checking acidity orbasicity of solutions to calculate mean averageresults2 Standard deviation and variance It is ameasure of testing precision Can be used toevaluate precision at various points in a processor to evaluate the precision between two differentmethods of the experiment3 Q test for rejecting data It is used to checkoutliers in data ie to check unusual deviation ina data set to see if it can be statistically rejected

4 Confidence limits It helps in finding theprobability of the true value being within acalculable range It makes use of multiplyingstandard deviation with studentrsquos t-factor thatdetermines the confidence interval of theobservation at the stated confidence level5 t F Chi-square and other tests Helps incomparing the results of two data sets For egside effects of different medication in the samepopulation6 Correlation Helps to detect the relationbetween two attributes of a data for eg howthe effect of a medicine increases or decreasesdue to the change in dosage how increase ordecrease in temperature affects the stability ofcertain medication

Clinical Trials

Clinical trials are research studies that evaluatenew ways to improve treatments and quality oflife for people with disease and in presentscenario global pandemic COVID-19 Resultsfrom Clinical trials help develop

1 New drugsvaccines 2 New diagnostic tools 3 New clinical procedures

Participants volunteer for clinical trials

(28)

In this method of stratified random sampling isused to divide the volunteers into different stratabased on shared attributes or characteristicssuch as gender medical conditions and otherspecifics These stratarsquos are used in differentphases of clinical trials

Clinical trials have 4 phases

Before trial begins volunteers need tounderstand the potential benefits and potentialrisks before participating in clinical trials thatrsquoswhy pre-clinical phase is conducted to test thenew treatment on animals and healthyvolunteers This part comes under descriptivestatistics where we are using the observed(benefits and risks) for further research Phase 1- In this new treatment is tested for thefirst time to know how treatment affects thebody to determine a safe dose range forvaccine and their side effects It involvesrelatively 20-80 volunteers Stats approach-Association analysis is performed to capture thecorrelations between drug therapeuticindications and side-effects In order to achievethis goal we adopted Fishers exact test whichis a widely used approach for measuring thesignificance of the association between twonominal variables For example to test thesignificance of the association between drugtherapeutic indications A and drug side effect B

Phase 2- The study involves how well a newtreatment or combination of treatment goes wellwith certain types of patients It involves up to300 patient volunteers For example out oftotal cancer patients half of the patients areselected randomly and are given cancertreatment along with new vaccine and other halfare given cancer treatment along with standardtreatment of corona virus Now side effects inboth the cases are noted Aim is to determinewhich combination of treatment will have lessside effects Chi- square test is used tocompare the side effects in both the cases Phase 3- In this phase effectiveness of addinga new treatment to the standard treatment isstudied 100-1000 volunteers participate in thisphase Stats approach- Participants arerandomly split into two groups 1st group(treatment group) receives the standardtreatment + new vaccine and 2nd group (controlgroup) receives standard treatment + placebo(a treatment that looks identical to the newtreatment but contains no active ingredient) Inthis phase mean time taken to develop antibodies in both the groups are compared usingZ-test (Test of significance for difference inmeans)

Phase 4- In this phase no volunteers areinvolved researchersrsquo monitor drug safety andeffectiveness It involves optimal usage

gtgt Well-SupportedHaving the experience of using some tools forfree you probably know that it is a challenge toget decent support but thatrsquos not the case withPython Despite the high simplicity there can besituations when you still need help with PythonBeing in widespread use like in industries oracademic areas Python has a broad array ofhelpful libraries with tons of helpful and supportmaterials The great benefit is that all thelibraries are available at no cost

gtgt ScalabilityThis Pythonrsquos feature is closely connected withthe previous option Comparing with otherlanguages like R Java python is much fasterand more scalable Therefore it is good invarious fields that can solve a wide range ofproblems Thatrsquos why many companies havemigrated to Python

gtgt Huge Libraries CollectionAs I have already mentioned Python is one ofthe most supported languages nowadays Ithas a long list of totally free libraries availablefor all the users Thatrsquos a key factor that givesa strong push for Python If yoursquore involved inthe field more likely you are acquainted withsuch names as Pandas SciPy Stats ModelsMatplotlib etc libraries that are intensivelyutilized in the data science community Hereyou can easily find a solution needed forhassle-free work without additional expenses

gtgt Graphics and Visualization ToolsItrsquos a well-known fact that visual information ismuch easier to understand operate andremember So here is some good news foryou There is a pack of diverse visualizationoptions available that makes python a must-have tool not only for data analysis but for alldata science You can make the data moreaccessible and easier to use by means ofcreating various charts and graphics as wellas interactive plots Always remember that thesuccess of your business directly depends onthe ability to extract knowledge and insightsfrom data to make effective strategicdecisions stay competitive and makeprogress and Python is the internationallyclaimed programming language to help us inhandling our data in a better manner for avariety of causes

ldquoCollege life is known as one of the most memorable years of astudentrsquos life exposing them to new experiences like meeting new

people learning new things exploring places etcrdquo

A registered clinical psychologist in Honk Kongnamed Zanonia Chiu said - ldquoGoing to school hadbeen a struggle for some children (withdepression) prior to the pandemic but at leastthey had school routines to stick with Now thatschools are closed some lock themselves upinside their rooms for weeks refusing to takeshowers eat or leave their beds For somechildren with depression there will beconsiderable difficulties adjusting back to normallife when college resumesrdquo and according to anonline survey conducted with the study periodfrom April 2020 to May 2020 - Total 531372 and 243 had symptoms of depressionanxiety and stress respectively with varyingseverities (N=727)The conclusion of the surveyindicated that COVID-19 is building psychologicaldistress among vulnerable college students asthey are forced to stay home along withworsening financial situations lifestyle changesfamily situations and time spent on variousactivities

Sounds so interesting and happening right Itis true indeed but along with stressful timeaside Along with the perks of enjoyingfreedom more than ever there comesacademic pressure tasks of separation fromfamilies career building futureresponsibilities etc Boarding on with thecollege life is a stressful time for manystudents thereby affecting their mental healthMental health problems are very commonamong college students and have been anincreasing concern However the COVID-19pandemic situation has brought this vulnerablepopulation into renewed focus Following thepandemic schools colleges offices andalmost every place that involved humaninteraction was shut It is important to note thatcollegeschool or even a normal routine areimportant coping mechanisms for youngpeople with mental health issues and wheneverything is shut down they lose an anchor inlife and their symptoms could relapse

Mental health among students is a big concernhowever ldquoUNTREATEDrdquo mental illnesses are amuch bigger and exponentially growingconcern Reaching out is an important step formental health issues to be addressed andtreated but reach out to who This is the pointwhere our institution should take over Collegesplay a big role in this stage Colleges doaddress this issue through means of orientationsessions and workshops but there is still a needto address mental health more directly Themethods to address mental health issuesshould be accessible feasible and affordablefor the students For example at NorthwesternUniversity student feedback led orientationenabled organizers to shift their focus fromexpert speakers to student testimonials Meansto address the issue vary from traditionalpresentations and panel discussions to roleplays small group discussions etc Herestudents learn how to recognize mental illnesssymptoms where to find resources andsupport and how to talk to friends who mightbe struggling

The findings of this study highlighted theurgent need to develop interventions andpreventive strategies to address the mentalhealth of college students Another InterviewSurvey study conducted by the Journal ofMedical Internet Research highlighted that of195 students 138 (71) indicated increasedstress and anxiety due to the COVID-19outbreak Multiple stressors were identified thatcontributed to the increased levels of stressanxiety and depressive thoughts amongstudents These included fear and worry abouttheir own health and of their loved ones(177195 91 reported negative impacts ofthe pandemic) difficulty in concentrating(173195 89) disruptions to sleepingpatterns (168195 86) decreased socialinteractions due to physical distancing(167195 86) and increased concerns onacademic performance (159195 82) Tocope with stress and anxiety participants havesought support from others and helpedthemselves by adopting either negative orpositive coping mechanisms It is important toknow that creating awareness about any issueis never enough action is what is neededTaking leave from workschool because of a fluor a fracture is acceptable and might even helpin the process of cure and healing howevertaking time off because of stress from a mentalillness such as anxiety or depressionunfortunately is not

lsquoOnline classrsquo is a term which most of us werenrsquotfamiliar with Before this pandemic we neverthought of getting education at home Covid hasaffected all of our lives In past pursuingeducation meant going to the schoolcollege Butnow the whole scenario has changed Childrenare studying and attending classes from homeJust like there are two sides of a coin onlineclasses also have some advantages anddisadvantages

Starting from the advantages it saves time forboth students and teachers as they donrsquot haveto travel All they have to do is to join throughtheir mobiles or laptops Secondly studentsdonrsquot have to necessarily buy books from theshops like they had to do in offline classesbecause they are given pdfs from which they canstudy Therefore it saves money Third it can beattended from anywhere in the world Unlike inthe offline classes where we had to gather at aparticular place Fourth computer basedpractical can be easily understood as studentscan share their screen with teachers Also it iseasy for teachers to explain a topic with the helpof pictures or animations which can be easilyfound on the internet

Last but not the least Parents can keep an eyeon their children whether they are studyingproperly or not

Apart from advantages it has somedisadvantages too First sitting beside thecomputer or mobile for hours affects the eyesightof both students and teachers Doctors arereporting many cases of eyestrain amongchildren since the online classes have startedSecondly students are becoming lazy as theydonrsquot have to go out of their home Like theproverb lsquoAll work and no play makes Jack a dullboyrsquo is really happening Third students canbunk in the online classes easily As they haveno fear of punishment they learned to disobeyand disrespect teachers Fourth students havebeen given lots of assignments as a result ofwhich most students are copying othersassignments and are not learning anything newFifth it is very difficult to communicate asteachers cannot give attention to each studentLastly it can be concluded that no matter howthe classes are being held a student must bededicated and sincere towards their studiesAfter all onersquos future depends on what they do intheir present

An actuary is a business executive professionally trained in the mathematical sciences Actuariesspecialize in the evaluation of financial riskmdashmost often in the context of life health and casualtyinsurance where they design analyse and refine varied programs to meet the insurance needs ofsociety A growing number of actuaries work in the areas of assetliability management and risk managementSome of these actuaries are employed by investment and consulting firms others are employed byinsurance companies

Actuaries have been called financial architects and social mathematicians because their combinedanalytical and business skills help solve a growing variety of financial and social problems Theactuarial profession is a demanding yet rewarding career choice

In a world bombarded with numerical information informed decisions rely on the ability to separatefact from fiction by applying valid statistical analyses and visualizations Statisticians can providecrucial guidance in determining what information is reliable and which predictions may be trustedThey often help search for clues to the solution of a scientific mystery and sometimes keepinvestigators from being misled by false impressions

Thousands of statisticians work in medicine law agriculture public policy marketing manufacturingengineering and other fields in the social and natural sciences The diversity of applications is anexciting aspect of the field and is one more reason why the demand for well-trained statisticianscontinues to be strong

Touching Your HeartWith Some

Poetry

Contributed by Dr Komal Goel

by Anubis the Philosomancer

(41)

Contributed by Dr Meenu Goel

The curtain lifts on Bryant Elementary Schools Spring Recorder Recital Ninety third-graders fumble with their instruments take a breath

and blow Their parents braced breathe too

as Hot Crossed Buns emerges a little scattershot -- the Normal Distribution brought to life

By Go Tell Aunt Rhodie the audience

is moved by their sheer pretty-goodness though one kid knocks her music to the floor

and another squeaks to demonstrate

the tail two standard deviations below the mean The curve implies

that somewhere on stage another kid

just played a note so sweet he might shatter Mrs Wedermeyers glasses And if

there are a mother and father who think

that child is theirs may they be forgiven even if the child shining in their eyes

is moving his fingers slightly out of rhythm

even if hes never led the bell curve in his life In consecutive measures of almost unison

its easy to believe these children are musicians

Their parents do so stirred by Ode to Joy they rise to their feet with the final phrase

clapping from the darkened auditorium

at once as one heroically like the parents theyve meant to be

EK NAYA SAFAR

Mubarak ho apko zindgi ka naya safar

Naya hai sheher nai hai dagar

Chut gaye kuch rishte purane

But donrsquot worry yaar mil jayenge naye diwane

Kuch tum jaise khuch tum se alag

So just smile and start a new life

Dosti yaari ko zara side mai rakh ke

Edhar gaur famiye janab

Course toh tumne acha chuna hai

Kuch socha hai ya ese hi liya hai

College mai admission jab hota hai

Toh andar khushi ke fuvare futne lagte hai

Lekin syllabus o dekh kar yeh bhi dagmagane lagte hai

Mana CP paas hai vahi maat ghumte rehna

Varna paper mai cafeacute ki menu sheet hi likhte rehna

Donrsquot take a chill pill coz yaha ki teachers hai thori strict

Just because they want you to be the best

Ab kya kare college ka har din mamuli nahi hota

Aur 9 se 4 sirf parai nahi hoti

Gumo firo esh karo but parna na bhulo

Mana es saal kuch zyada hi speed breakers hai

But the best part is hum sab bhi toh sath hai

PONDERINGAll of humanity is but a set of numbers You and I

are nothing more than a statisticJust think about any decision you had to take

recently No matter your choice you might findyourself ending up only as an infinitesimal

decimal in the final percentage of a statisticianrsquosdiscourse Let me give you an example pertinent

to the world we live in today Say yoursquore arepublican and have to decide whether to wear a

mask or not Naturally your political instinctmight warn you against it However you might

still be inclined to wear one because yoursquoregenuinely scared about what the ldquoliberalsrdquo have

to say about the SARS-COV-2 Now now letrsquos notgo off-topic here I know you might be wondering

what yoursquod do if you were in a Republicanrsquos shoesBut thatrsquos not the point

In the end it seldom matters whether you are arepublican or a liberal especially in situations

like these What matters in the end is if you didgo out without wearing that infuriating

smothering mask And if you contracted thewretched virus because of it If yes hard luck

Yoursquore nothing more than one of the 841 millionpeople who have it Thatrsquos all that people aroundthe world will see Not your gender not your ageand certainly not your political belief Of course

there will be studies about the correlation ofthese factors with the incidence rate of the

infections but thatrsquos another story altogether andnot one possibly as broad as the one we talk

aboutMoreover the correlation must not be

confused with causation Now perhaps thatrsquosa story for another day But think about it thisway whether you go to college or drop out of

high school whether you choose to live ordecide to die no matter the decision no

matter your inclination or choice whetheryou like it or not you will be nothing more

than a statisticIt might sound a bit gloomy to be honestWhen I first thought about it I felt almostinsignificant Like a tiny speck of dust in a

galaxy of stars Alas isnrsquot that all that we arethough

A pale blue dot in an ocean of stars Ourplanet one among millions or perhaps

billions of others All 78 billion of us fightingfor a place in the world knowing full well we

canrsquot all possibly have it It might makeanyone feel overwhelmed but therersquos

something about that that is so challenging itis almost inspiring We all know statistics andwe all know life But the true beauty of life lies

in the ability to defy statistics Only onequestion remains are you up for the

challenge

It wonrsquot be any exaggeration If itrsquos said that tools of statistician are used in almost all fields ofcalculation

Be it research finance sports marketing sales health care or population countingIt is a crucial process behind How we make discoveries in science

Making decisions or claiming predictions It plays a crucial play in all situationsStats is involved everywhere from collection to interpretation From explanation to

presentationStatistics helps avoiding a wide variety of analytical traps By making sure that study follow

apt methods in all aspectsChallenging your own assumptions Or drawing data-based conclusions

Statistics is always there Making things crisp and clear

It always seems impossible until it is done

If it makes you happyit doesnt have to make sense to others

When you cant find the sunshinebe the sunshine

Either you run the day or let the day run you

When you focus on the goodthe good gets better

It takes the same energy to worry as it doesto be positive so use your energy to thinkpositive and positive things will happen

The one thing that doesnt abide by majority rule is a persons conscience

Make happiness a priority and be gentle with yourself in the process

College the best start to unfold lifes beauty

Goodbye to the mistakes weve made remember the laughs weve shared

Will never forget these years

People are capable at anytime in their lives of doing what they dream of

Believe in Yourself

Be who you are and say what you feelbecause those who mind donrsquot matter and

those who matter donrsquot mind

Success is liking yourself liking what you do and liking how you do it

Happiness is a by-product of an effort to make someone else happy

If you are not willing to risk the unusual you will have to settle for the ordinary

Always keep it clean simple and precise

Hustle until you no longer have to introduce yourself

Dream it Wish it Do it

ALUMINI SPEAKSIts been a privilege to be the leading batch of the Department of StatisticsMata Sundri College None less than a roller coaster with every newchallenge we have rocked it on together With the amazing faculty it neverfelt like we needed the Seniors We have created our paths and wont letour juniors struggle for it always there to their rescue I have been a part of the statistics society for all the years and haveexperienced the best of it I see the society and the department growingwhich surely adds a feather to my capWishing for the best of it with all my heartI wish I could relive those best three years spent at the department witheveryone in my batch and the teachersGood luck

Sometimes the most beautiful things happen in the most unexpected waysI still canrsquot get over the fact that my 3 years-long and the beautiful journeycame to an end I never thought that I would make such beautiful bonds incollege be it with the teachers or my classmates Mata Sundri College will always have a special place in my heart and in mylife It is this place that made me realize my true potential I entered thecollege with almost no expectations But looking back at the time I nowfeel that those years were the most special and the most beautiful onesThe kind of love and support I received from all the teachers cannot bedescribed in words The personal connection which I still have with myteachers would be missing had I been in some other college I amextremely grateful to them It was because of them that I started loving mysubject Statistics All the hard work put in by my teachers and by myselfpaid off in the end Never did I imagine that I would become the Universitytopper I still feel that I am living in a dream

It is one of my greatest accomplishments Receiving the Medal from theHonrsquoble Education Minister Shri Ramesh Pokhriyal was a matter of pride Ifeel so happy seeing my parents and teachers being proud of me I surelyknow that whenever Irsquoll need some help in the future my teachers willalways be there to guide me The only regret is that we didnrsquot get a chance to greet the teachers and ourfellow classmates one last time due to the pandemic But keeping thataside I will always cherish my journey Thank you Mata Sundri College forthe amazing experience

Croxton and Cowden defines statistics as the science of collection presentation analysis andinterpretation of numerical data Progressively the Statistics subject come to be more and more popular and its application hasbecome more extensive Now almost there is no field of human activity where statistics are not usedNowadays it is used by economists businessmen scientists administrators etc To be more preciseabout the importance of statistics in our life lets discuss some astonishing reasons that we haveoverheard on several occasions

1 Everyone lookout for weather forecasting Have you ever thought how do you acquire thatinformation There are some computer models constructed on the basis of statistical conceptsThese computer models relate past weather with the present weather and predict future weather

2 Statistics frequently used by the researchers They use their statistical skills to collect therelevant data Otherwise it results in a loss of money time and data

3 What do you understand by insurance Everyone has some kind of insurance whether it ismedical home or any other insurance Several businesses use statistical models based on anindividual application to calculate the risk of giving insurance Life tables are indispensable for thesolution of all questions relating to the duration of human life 4 Statistic plays significant role in financial market Statistics are the key of how traders andbusinessmen invest and make money

5 Statistics play a big role in the medical field For testing the efficacy of a manufacturing druginjection or medicine for controlling curing specific ailments most of the applications of medicalfields lies in using the tests of significance (more precisely studentrsquos t-test) The testing of theeffectiveness of a medicine by the manufacturing concern is a must since only after theeffectiveness of the medicine is proven by the sound statistical techniques that it will venture tomanufacture it on a large scale and bring it out in the market By statistical techniques (t and Fsignificance tests) comparative study of different medicines can also be made

(18)

6 In industry Statistical techniques are used in quality testing Companies manufacture manyproducts on a daily basis and every company make sure that they sell the best quality items Butcompanies cannot test all the products so they use sampling techniques which are a very importantaspect of statistical theory 7 We make variety of predictions in daily life For examples we keep the alarm for the morningwhen we donrsquot know that we will be alive in the morning or not Here we use statistics basics to makepredictions

8 Using statistics concepts doctors predict disease Suppose a survey shows that 75-80people have cancer and not able to find the reason Where the statistics is involved there you canhave a better idea on how the cancer may affect your body

9 News reporter makes a prediction of winner for elections based on political campaigns Herestatistics play a very important role to find out who will form the government 10 Statistics data allow us to collect the information around the world The internet is a devisewhich help us to collect the information The fundamental behind the internet is based on statisticsand mathematics concepts 11 Not only in peace times but in war times also statistics can be used very effectively It ispractically not possible to face a war without the factual data concerning the military strength of theenemy in terms of manpower military tanks war aeroplanes missiles ammunition etc

BIOSTATISTICS is the application of statisticalmethods in studies in biology andencompasses the design of experiments thecollection of data from them and the analysisand interpretation of data The data comes froma wide range of sources including genomicstudies experiments with cells and organismsand clinical trials Biostatistics is the applicationof statistical principles to questions andproblems in medicine public health or biologyOne can imagine that it might be of interest tocharacterize a given population with respect tothe proportion who has asthma and it wouldalso be important to estimate the magnitude ofthese problems over time or perhaps in differentlocations Statistics is a science of compilingclassifying and tabulating numerical data andexpressing the results in a mathematical andgraphical form whereas biostatistics is thebranch of statistics concerned with themathematical facts and data related to biologicalevents

Francis Galton created the statistical conceptcorrelation Sir Galton for the first time usedstatistical tools to study differences amonghuman population He also invented the use ofquestionnaires surveys for collecting data onhuman communities Biostatistics are the eventand application of statistical method to a goodrange of topic in biology It encompasses theplanning of biological experiments the gatheringand analysis of knowledge from thoseexperiments and therefore the interpretation ofthe results Biostatistics is sometimesdistinguished from the field of biometry basedupon whether applications are in the healthsciences (bio statistics) or in broader biology(biometry example agriculture ecology wildlifebiology) More and more things are nowmeasured quantitatively in medicine and publichealth There is a great deal of inherent variationin most biological processes Public health andmedicine are becoming increasingly quantitative

(20)

It is used to test whether the differencebetween two populations is real or by chanceoccurrence to study the correlation betweenattributes in the same population and toevaluate the achievements of public healthprograms Biostatistics has applications in allthe branches of life sciences such as formapping chromosomes for studying thebehavior of genes in a population and forconduction of drug treatment trails etcBiostatistics deals with data arising frombiomedical research It remains a very activeresearch area with complicated time-to-eventdata and missing data emerging in applicationareas including medicine geneticsneuroscience and engineering Recentadvances in biomedical research have creatednew challenges and opportunities forstatisticians and data scientists For examplebig data analysis precision medicine artificialintelligence causal inference and other newresearch fields have inspired data scientists todevelop modern statistical methods andinnovative inference procedures

As technology progresses the physicianencounters more and more quantitative ratherthan descriptive information In one sensestatistics is the language of assembling andhandling quantitative material Even if onersquosconcern is only with the results of other peoplersquosmanipulation and assemblage of data it isimportant to achieve some understanding of thislanguage in order to interpret their resultsproperly Statistics pervades the medicalliterature As a consequence of the increasinglyquantitative nature of public health and medicineand its reliance on statistical methodology themedical literature is replete with reports in whichstatistical techniques are used extensivelyBiostatistics is used to determine how diseasesdevelop progress and spread

For example biostatisticians use statistics topredict the behavior of an illness like flu It is usedto help predict the mortality rate the symptomsand even the time of year people might get it

Over 50 years ago there was a subject whichwas unnoticed and mainly focused on the studyand analysis of data Statisticians urgedacademic statistics to transcend its boundariesbeyond the realm of theoretical statistics Morestress was laid on data presentation Datascience is a discipline which is guided bycomputing informatics operation researchmathematics and statistics

Statistics is treated as the most important tool insorting and analysing data It is beneficial ingiving a deeper vision of the data Statisticswidely depends upon experiments and surveysWith the help of descriptive statisticscalculations like mean median etc can bedone on the data On the other hand inferentialstatistics helps in drawing inferences andconclusions from the population Both domainsof statistics play a very important role in DataScience In order to get a structured data andmaking predictions statistical methods and toolsare very essential They are able to carry outmany analytical tasks

Statistical Analysis is the study of surveying agiven set of data and observing patterns andtrends It is used in research fields to createstatistical models for performing certainexperiments on a population

The focus is to gather information from thesmallest quantity of data The experimentsinvolve accurate calculations and therefore giverespective results Statistics forms the base ofData Science It requires optimization of hugedatabases which is achieved with the help ofdifferent statistical tools In todayrsquos data drivenworld Data Science is turning out to be one ofthe most demanded professions Almost all firmsand companies are in search of data scientistsas the data keeps on piling up and the need ofinterpreting analysing and cleaning it is risingThe ultimate aim of Statistics and Data Scienceis to extricate cognizance from large amounts ofdata

Whenever the word lsquobusinessrsquo is heard lsquosalesrsquo isthe word which comes to our mind next and whatexactly assists sales is STATISTICS Donrsquotbelieve me but I am sure after reading the articleyou would all agree to my point too So what doesa businessman do He manufactures and sellsthe goods produced to the public but both ofthese basic functions of the businessman cannotbe transcended without the help of statistics toolssuch as survey statistics driven softwares tocollect and analyse the demand of the customerand to what extent ie the quantity in which it isrequired in order to maximize their total revenueThe graphs and the tables formed ie the statshelp them to know the exact condition of themarket and its inclination so that they could comeout with offers and discounts in order to attractpublic towards their product maximizing theirsales The businessmen who is believed to bevery quick and accurate in decision making is allassisted by statistics at every point fromanalysing their sales profit margins wages of theemployees the improvements required in theproduct the billing counters are all carriedforward with the help of statistical tools Thefinancial resources required for investing in thebusiness are also arranged according to theassistance given by the data analysts Themarketing and advertisement of the products alsoneeds statistics Now you would be thinking how

amp its regular maintenance is all handled bystatistical applications In order to calculate theaverage mean median loss profit and all theother commerce related terms in businessesdealing with large amount of data is all handledby statisticians Statistics also helps inmaintaining employee performancemanagement A manager collects data aboutemployee productivity such as the number oftasks completed or the number of unitsproduced He or she must analyse data to findways in which an employee should improve toachieve maximum productivity Manycompanies also collect data about employeeengagement and happiness on the job whichcan be tracked to not only keep workersmotivated but ensure they dont leave for otherpositions elsewhere This helps in increasingthe efficiency of the employees and also createsa healthy working environment I have listed lotof points to prove the importance of statistics inbusinesses and hope that you will now agree towhat I mentioned in the beginning of the article

Whenever a method of marketing is thought thepercentage of people to get influenced the agegroup to target the kind of offers to be laid downare all done through statistics You might haveheard that now data is the new oil that means lifeis all surrounded with data and for the data andthe demand for its upkeep and analysis the dataanalysts are required and in big organizationswho actually target all age groups and sell allkinds of products on a large scale have a largedatabase not only of the customers but also oftheir n number of employees So an organizationis incomplete without data and where there isdata there is statistics In fact I would say thatan organization isnrsquot an organization if they donot have data and its proper upkeep in such acase the company will surely drain out so thisactually proves how important statistics hasbecome in the business point of view Thebanking sector canrsquot function without statisticsand this banking business forms the backbone ofthe country since all the customers of the bankhave loads of data for a particular bank account

Statistics is the science of learning from dataStatistical knowledge helps an individual to usethe proper methods for collecting data employthe correct analysis and present the resultseffectively Statistical analysis is thus used inalmost all fields to make sense out of the vastamount of data that is available Thus statisticalmethodologies are not only useful in drawingimportant results but also play a significant role inproducing new findings and understanding thework of others One such field which has wideuse of the statistical techniques andmethodologies is the Insurance Sector Insuranceis basically the business of risk as it involves thetransfer of risk from one party to another

The main incoming and outgoing source ofincome in the business of insurance is throughpremiums and claims respectively Manystatistical models are used to model claimsand losses Parameters for these distributionsare estimated using Method of momentMaximum likelihood estimates etc and thenGoodness of fit testis applied to check howwell our distribution fits to the data Timeseries model plays an important role inforecasting future values Statistics is used toanswer the most important questions for theinsurance industry What percentage ofpolicies are expected to payout How muchmoney the company must expect to payout inclaims Different methods of data collectioneither in primary or secondary form are usedto determine the required reserves premiumand future predictions Apart from this manystatistical methods for eg Linear modelmethod which uses regression as the maintool in determining the factors affectingpremiums Loss distribution method in whichhistogram and bar graphs are made tocompare different categories and complexstatistical tools such as Ruin Theory and Run-off triangles are used to develop newproducts absorb and evaluate risk and ruinwhen balancing claims reserves andpremiums Thus statistics plays anirreplaceable role in the life cycle ofinsurance business for both life and non-life insurance

Statistics help in

Measuring the stability of drugs-II) Production of drugs according to demandsIII) Effectiveness of drugsIV) Quality control of drugs V) Marketing of drugs VI) Testing the side effects of the drug with thehelp of data VII) Going through the procedure of approvaland public distribution of drugs

Statistics in developing a drug

A lot of statistics tools are used duringproduction clinical trials and marketing andpublic distribution of drugs-1 Average (mean median and mode) Usedduring experiments like stability testingcombination of chemicals and checking acidity orbasicity of solutions to calculate mean averageresults2 Standard deviation and variance It is ameasure of testing precision Can be used toevaluate precision at various points in a processor to evaluate the precision between two differentmethods of the experiment3 Q test for rejecting data It is used to checkoutliers in data ie to check unusual deviation ina data set to see if it can be statistically rejected

4 Confidence limits It helps in finding theprobability of the true value being within acalculable range It makes use of multiplyingstandard deviation with studentrsquos t-factor thatdetermines the confidence interval of theobservation at the stated confidence level5 t F Chi-square and other tests Helps incomparing the results of two data sets For egside effects of different medication in the samepopulation6 Correlation Helps to detect the relationbetween two attributes of a data for eg howthe effect of a medicine increases or decreasesdue to the change in dosage how increase ordecrease in temperature affects the stability ofcertain medication

Clinical Trials

Clinical trials are research studies that evaluatenew ways to improve treatments and quality oflife for people with disease and in presentscenario global pandemic COVID-19 Resultsfrom Clinical trials help develop

1 New drugsvaccines 2 New diagnostic tools 3 New clinical procedures

Participants volunteer for clinical trials

(28)

In this method of stratified random sampling isused to divide the volunteers into different stratabased on shared attributes or characteristicssuch as gender medical conditions and otherspecifics These stratarsquos are used in differentphases of clinical trials

Clinical trials have 4 phases

Before trial begins volunteers need tounderstand the potential benefits and potentialrisks before participating in clinical trials thatrsquoswhy pre-clinical phase is conducted to test thenew treatment on animals and healthyvolunteers This part comes under descriptivestatistics where we are using the observed(benefits and risks) for further research Phase 1- In this new treatment is tested for thefirst time to know how treatment affects thebody to determine a safe dose range forvaccine and their side effects It involvesrelatively 20-80 volunteers Stats approach-Association analysis is performed to capture thecorrelations between drug therapeuticindications and side-effects In order to achievethis goal we adopted Fishers exact test whichis a widely used approach for measuring thesignificance of the association between twonominal variables For example to test thesignificance of the association between drugtherapeutic indications A and drug side effect B

Phase 2- The study involves how well a newtreatment or combination of treatment goes wellwith certain types of patients It involves up to300 patient volunteers For example out oftotal cancer patients half of the patients areselected randomly and are given cancertreatment along with new vaccine and other halfare given cancer treatment along with standardtreatment of corona virus Now side effects inboth the cases are noted Aim is to determinewhich combination of treatment will have lessside effects Chi- square test is used tocompare the side effects in both the cases Phase 3- In this phase effectiveness of addinga new treatment to the standard treatment isstudied 100-1000 volunteers participate in thisphase Stats approach- Participants arerandomly split into two groups 1st group(treatment group) receives the standardtreatment + new vaccine and 2nd group (controlgroup) receives standard treatment + placebo(a treatment that looks identical to the newtreatment but contains no active ingredient) Inthis phase mean time taken to develop antibodies in both the groups are compared usingZ-test (Test of significance for difference inmeans)

Phase 4- In this phase no volunteers areinvolved researchersrsquo monitor drug safety andeffectiveness It involves optimal usage

We all live in the digital era of hightechnologies smart devices and mobilesolutions Data is an essential aspect of anybusiness Itrsquos crucial to gather process andanalyse the data flow and to do that as quicklyand accurately as possible Nowadays the datavolume can be large which makes informationhandling time-consuming and expensive Dueto this precise reason the data science industryis growing at a rapid pace creating newpossibilities as well as opportunities and pythonis one of the solutions to understand andanalyse such big data sets It is a cross-functional language that has lots of advantagesto offer This object-oriented programminglanguage is commonly used to streamline largecomplex data sets Not only this it has a highreadability that helps data analysts to save timeby typing fewer lines of code for accomplishingthe tasks Therefore itrsquos not surprising at allthat it is claimed to be the preferredprogramming language for data science

Let me tell you why Python is a number oneoption for data analysis-

By Tanisha Gupta ( 3rd Year )

gtgt Easy to LearnBeing involved in development for web servicesmobile apps as well as coding Yes it is one ofthe most famous language characteristics Morethan that a low and thus fast learning curve isthe next pre-eminence of Python whencomparing it with older languages on offer

gtgt Well-SupportedHaving the experience of using some tools forfree you probably know that it is a challenge toget decent support but thatrsquos not the case withPython Despite the high simplicity there can besituations when you still need help with PythonBeing in widespread use like in industries oracademic areas Python has a broad array ofhelpful libraries with tons of helpful and supportmaterials The great benefit is that all thelibraries are available at no cost

gtgt ScalabilityThis Pythonrsquos feature is closely connected withthe previous option Comparing with otherlanguages like R Java python is much fasterand more scalable Therefore it is good invarious fields that can solve a wide range ofproblems Thatrsquos why many companies havemigrated to Python

(34)

gtgt Huge Libraries CollectionAs I have already mentioned Python is one ofthe most supported languages nowadays Ithas a long list of totally free libraries availablefor all the users Thatrsquos a key factor that givesa strong push for Python If yoursquore involved inthe field more likely you are acquainted withsuch names as Pandas SciPy Stats ModelsMatplotlib etc libraries that are intensivelyutilized in the data science community Hereyou can easily find a solution needed forhassle-free work without additional expenses

gtgt Graphics and Visualization ToolsItrsquos a well-known fact that visual information ismuch easier to understand operate andremember So here is some good news foryou There is a pack of diverse visualizationoptions available that makes python a must-have tool not only for data analysis but for alldata science You can make the data moreaccessible and easier to use by means ofcreating various charts and graphics as wellas interactive plots Always remember that thesuccess of your business directly depends onthe ability to extract knowledge and insightsfrom data to make effective strategicdecisions stay competitive and makeprogress and Python is the internationallyclaimed programming language to help us inhandling our data in a better manner for avariety of causes

ldquoCollege life is known as one of the most memorable years of astudentrsquos life exposing them to new experiences like meeting new

people learning new things exploring places etcrdquo

A registered clinical psychologist in Honk Kongnamed Zanonia Chiu said - ldquoGoing to school hadbeen a struggle for some children (withdepression) prior to the pandemic but at leastthey had school routines to stick with Now thatschools are closed some lock themselves upinside their rooms for weeks refusing to takeshowers eat or leave their beds For somechildren with depression there will beconsiderable difficulties adjusting back to normallife when college resumesrdquo and according to anonline survey conducted with the study periodfrom April 2020 to May 2020 - Total 531372 and 243 had symptoms of depressionanxiety and stress respectively with varyingseverities (N=727)The conclusion of the surveyindicated that COVID-19 is building psychologicaldistress among vulnerable college students asthey are forced to stay home along withworsening financial situations lifestyle changesfamily situations and time spent on variousactivities

Sounds so interesting and happening right Itis true indeed but along with stressful timeaside Along with the perks of enjoyingfreedom more than ever there comesacademic pressure tasks of separation fromfamilies career building futureresponsibilities etc Boarding on with thecollege life is a stressful time for manystudents thereby affecting their mental healthMental health problems are very commonamong college students and have been anincreasing concern However the COVID-19pandemic situation has brought this vulnerablepopulation into renewed focus Following thepandemic schools colleges offices andalmost every place that involved humaninteraction was shut It is important to note thatcollegeschool or even a normal routine areimportant coping mechanisms for youngpeople with mental health issues and wheneverything is shut down they lose an anchor inlife and their symptoms could relapse

Mental health among students is a big concernhowever ldquoUNTREATEDrdquo mental illnesses are amuch bigger and exponentially growingconcern Reaching out is an important step formental health issues to be addressed andtreated but reach out to who This is the pointwhere our institution should take over Collegesplay a big role in this stage Colleges doaddress this issue through means of orientationsessions and workshops but there is still a needto address mental health more directly Themethods to address mental health issuesshould be accessible feasible and affordablefor the students For example at NorthwesternUniversity student feedback led orientationenabled organizers to shift their focus fromexpert speakers to student testimonials Meansto address the issue vary from traditionalpresentations and panel discussions to roleplays small group discussions etc Herestudents learn how to recognize mental illnesssymptoms where to find resources andsupport and how to talk to friends who mightbe struggling

The findings of this study highlighted theurgent need to develop interventions andpreventive strategies to address the mentalhealth of college students Another InterviewSurvey study conducted by the Journal ofMedical Internet Research highlighted that of195 students 138 (71) indicated increasedstress and anxiety due to the COVID-19outbreak Multiple stressors were identified thatcontributed to the increased levels of stressanxiety and depressive thoughts amongstudents These included fear and worry abouttheir own health and of their loved ones(177195 91 reported negative impacts ofthe pandemic) difficulty in concentrating(173195 89) disruptions to sleepingpatterns (168195 86) decreased socialinteractions due to physical distancing(167195 86) and increased concerns onacademic performance (159195 82) Tocope with stress and anxiety participants havesought support from others and helpedthemselves by adopting either negative orpositive coping mechanisms It is important toknow that creating awareness about any issueis never enough action is what is neededTaking leave from workschool because of a fluor a fracture is acceptable and might even helpin the process of cure and healing howevertaking time off because of stress from a mentalillness such as anxiety or depressionunfortunately is not

lsquoOnline classrsquo is a term which most of us werenrsquotfamiliar with Before this pandemic we neverthought of getting education at home Covid hasaffected all of our lives In past pursuingeducation meant going to the schoolcollege Butnow the whole scenario has changed Childrenare studying and attending classes from homeJust like there are two sides of a coin onlineclasses also have some advantages anddisadvantages

Starting from the advantages it saves time forboth students and teachers as they donrsquot haveto travel All they have to do is to join throughtheir mobiles or laptops Secondly studentsdonrsquot have to necessarily buy books from theshops like they had to do in offline classesbecause they are given pdfs from which they canstudy Therefore it saves money Third it can beattended from anywhere in the world Unlike inthe offline classes where we had to gather at aparticular place Fourth computer basedpractical can be easily understood as studentscan share their screen with teachers Also it iseasy for teachers to explain a topic with the helpof pictures or animations which can be easilyfound on the internet

Last but not the least Parents can keep an eyeon their children whether they are studyingproperly or not

Apart from advantages it has somedisadvantages too First sitting beside thecomputer or mobile for hours affects the eyesightof both students and teachers Doctors arereporting many cases of eyestrain amongchildren since the online classes have startedSecondly students are becoming lazy as theydonrsquot have to go out of their home Like theproverb lsquoAll work and no play makes Jack a dullboyrsquo is really happening Third students canbunk in the online classes easily As they haveno fear of punishment they learned to disobeyand disrespect teachers Fourth students havebeen given lots of assignments as a result ofwhich most students are copying othersassignments and are not learning anything newFifth it is very difficult to communicate asteachers cannot give attention to each studentLastly it can be concluded that no matter howthe classes are being held a student must bededicated and sincere towards their studiesAfter all onersquos future depends on what they do intheir present

An actuary is a business executive professionally trained in the mathematical sciences Actuariesspecialize in the evaluation of financial riskmdashmost often in the context of life health and casualtyinsurance where they design analyse and refine varied programs to meet the insurance needs ofsociety A growing number of actuaries work in the areas of assetliability management and risk managementSome of these actuaries are employed by investment and consulting firms others are employed byinsurance companies

Actuaries have been called financial architects and social mathematicians because their combinedanalytical and business skills help solve a growing variety of financial and social problems Theactuarial profession is a demanding yet rewarding career choice

In a world bombarded with numerical information informed decisions rely on the ability to separatefact from fiction by applying valid statistical analyses and visualizations Statisticians can providecrucial guidance in determining what information is reliable and which predictions may be trustedThey often help search for clues to the solution of a scientific mystery and sometimes keepinvestigators from being misled by false impressions

Thousands of statisticians work in medicine law agriculture public policy marketing manufacturingengineering and other fields in the social and natural sciences The diversity of applications is anexciting aspect of the field and is one more reason why the demand for well-trained statisticianscontinues to be strong

Touching Your HeartWith Some

Poetry

Contributed by Dr Komal Goel

by Anubis the Philosomancer

(41)

Contributed by Dr Meenu Goel

The curtain lifts on Bryant Elementary Schools Spring Recorder Recital Ninety third-graders fumble with their instruments take a breath

and blow Their parents braced breathe too

as Hot Crossed Buns emerges a little scattershot -- the Normal Distribution brought to life

By Go Tell Aunt Rhodie the audience

is moved by their sheer pretty-goodness though one kid knocks her music to the floor

and another squeaks to demonstrate

the tail two standard deviations below the mean The curve implies

that somewhere on stage another kid

just played a note so sweet he might shatter Mrs Wedermeyers glasses And if

there are a mother and father who think

that child is theirs may they be forgiven even if the child shining in their eyes

is moving his fingers slightly out of rhythm

even if hes never led the bell curve in his life In consecutive measures of almost unison

its easy to believe these children are musicians

Their parents do so stirred by Ode to Joy they rise to their feet with the final phrase

clapping from the darkened auditorium

at once as one heroically like the parents theyve meant to be

EK NAYA SAFAR

Mubarak ho apko zindgi ka naya safar

Naya hai sheher nai hai dagar

Chut gaye kuch rishte purane

But donrsquot worry yaar mil jayenge naye diwane

Kuch tum jaise khuch tum se alag

So just smile and start a new life

Dosti yaari ko zara side mai rakh ke

Edhar gaur famiye janab

Course toh tumne acha chuna hai

Kuch socha hai ya ese hi liya hai

College mai admission jab hota hai

Toh andar khushi ke fuvare futne lagte hai

Lekin syllabus o dekh kar yeh bhi dagmagane lagte hai

Mana CP paas hai vahi maat ghumte rehna

Varna paper mai cafeacute ki menu sheet hi likhte rehna

Donrsquot take a chill pill coz yaha ki teachers hai thori strict

Just because they want you to be the best

Ab kya kare college ka har din mamuli nahi hota

Aur 9 se 4 sirf parai nahi hoti

Gumo firo esh karo but parna na bhulo

Mana es saal kuch zyada hi speed breakers hai

But the best part is hum sab bhi toh sath hai

PONDERINGAll of humanity is but a set of numbers You and I

are nothing more than a statisticJust think about any decision you had to take

recently No matter your choice you might findyourself ending up only as an infinitesimal

decimal in the final percentage of a statisticianrsquosdiscourse Let me give you an example pertinent

to the world we live in today Say yoursquore arepublican and have to decide whether to wear a

mask or not Naturally your political instinctmight warn you against it However you might

still be inclined to wear one because yoursquoregenuinely scared about what the ldquoliberalsrdquo have

to say about the SARS-COV-2 Now now letrsquos notgo off-topic here I know you might be wondering

what yoursquod do if you were in a Republicanrsquos shoesBut thatrsquos not the point

In the end it seldom matters whether you are arepublican or a liberal especially in situations

like these What matters in the end is if you didgo out without wearing that infuriating

smothering mask And if you contracted thewretched virus because of it If yes hard luck

Yoursquore nothing more than one of the 841 millionpeople who have it Thatrsquos all that people aroundthe world will see Not your gender not your ageand certainly not your political belief Of course

there will be studies about the correlation ofthese factors with the incidence rate of the

infections but thatrsquos another story altogether andnot one possibly as broad as the one we talk

aboutMoreover the correlation must not be

confused with causation Now perhaps thatrsquosa story for another day But think about it thisway whether you go to college or drop out of

high school whether you choose to live ordecide to die no matter the decision no

matter your inclination or choice whetheryou like it or not you will be nothing more

than a statisticIt might sound a bit gloomy to be honestWhen I first thought about it I felt almostinsignificant Like a tiny speck of dust in a

galaxy of stars Alas isnrsquot that all that we arethough

A pale blue dot in an ocean of stars Ourplanet one among millions or perhaps

billions of others All 78 billion of us fightingfor a place in the world knowing full well we

canrsquot all possibly have it It might makeanyone feel overwhelmed but therersquos

something about that that is so challenging itis almost inspiring We all know statistics andwe all know life But the true beauty of life lies

in the ability to defy statistics Only onequestion remains are you up for the

challenge

It wonrsquot be any exaggeration If itrsquos said that tools of statistician are used in almost all fields ofcalculation

Be it research finance sports marketing sales health care or population countingIt is a crucial process behind How we make discoveries in science

Making decisions or claiming predictions It plays a crucial play in all situationsStats is involved everywhere from collection to interpretation From explanation to

presentationStatistics helps avoiding a wide variety of analytical traps By making sure that study follow

apt methods in all aspectsChallenging your own assumptions Or drawing data-based conclusions

Statistics is always there Making things crisp and clear

It always seems impossible until it is done

If it makes you happyit doesnt have to make sense to others

When you cant find the sunshinebe the sunshine

Either you run the day or let the day run you

When you focus on the goodthe good gets better

It takes the same energy to worry as it doesto be positive so use your energy to thinkpositive and positive things will happen

The one thing that doesnt abide by majority rule is a persons conscience

Make happiness a priority and be gentle with yourself in the process

College the best start to unfold lifes beauty

Goodbye to the mistakes weve made remember the laughs weve shared

Will never forget these years

People are capable at anytime in their lives of doing what they dream of

Believe in Yourself

Be who you are and say what you feelbecause those who mind donrsquot matter and

those who matter donrsquot mind

Success is liking yourself liking what you do and liking how you do it

Happiness is a by-product of an effort to make someone else happy

If you are not willing to risk the unusual you will have to settle for the ordinary

Always keep it clean simple and precise

Hustle until you no longer have to introduce yourself

Dream it Wish it Do it

Your mistake dont define your character Itswhat you do after you make mistake that

makes all the difference

Life is what passes by while youare busy making other plans

Let us be grateful to people who make ushappy they are the charming gardeners who

make our souls blossom

Confidence is not substitute forclarity to be successful you need

clarity not confidence

Attitude is a little thing that makesa big difference

Be who you are and say what you feelbecause those who mind dont matterand those who matter dont mindrdquo

ALUMINI SPEAKSIts been a privilege to be the leading batch of the Department of StatisticsMata Sundri College None less than a roller coaster with every newchallenge we have rocked it on together With the amazing faculty it neverfelt like we needed the Seniors We have created our paths and wont letour juniors struggle for it always there to their rescue I have been a part of the statistics society for all the years and haveexperienced the best of it I see the society and the department growingwhich surely adds a feather to my capWishing for the best of it with all my heartI wish I could relive those best three years spent at the department witheveryone in my batch and the teachersGood luck

Sometimes the most beautiful things happen in the most unexpected waysI still canrsquot get over the fact that my 3 years-long and the beautiful journeycame to an end I never thought that I would make such beautiful bonds incollege be it with the teachers or my classmates Mata Sundri College will always have a special place in my heart and in mylife It is this place that made me realize my true potential I entered thecollege with almost no expectations But looking back at the time I nowfeel that those years were the most special and the most beautiful onesThe kind of love and support I received from all the teachers cannot bedescribed in words The personal connection which I still have with myteachers would be missing had I been in some other college I amextremely grateful to them It was because of them that I started loving mysubject Statistics All the hard work put in by my teachers and by myselfpaid off in the end Never did I imagine that I would become the Universitytopper I still feel that I am living in a dream

It is one of my greatest accomplishments Receiving the Medal from theHonrsquoble Education Minister Shri Ramesh Pokhriyal was a matter of pride Ifeel so happy seeing my parents and teachers being proud of me I surelyknow that whenever Irsquoll need some help in the future my teachers willalways be there to guide me The only regret is that we didnrsquot get a chance to greet the teachers and ourfellow classmates one last time due to the pandemic But keeping thataside I will always cherish my journey Thank you Mata Sundri College forthe amazing experience

Croxton and Cowden defines statistics as the science of collection presentation analysis andinterpretation of numerical data Progressively the Statistics subject come to be more and more popular and its application hasbecome more extensive Now almost there is no field of human activity where statistics are not usedNowadays it is used by economists businessmen scientists administrators etc To be more preciseabout the importance of statistics in our life lets discuss some astonishing reasons that we haveoverheard on several occasions

1 Everyone lookout for weather forecasting Have you ever thought how do you acquire thatinformation There are some computer models constructed on the basis of statistical conceptsThese computer models relate past weather with the present weather and predict future weather

2 Statistics frequently used by the researchers They use their statistical skills to collect therelevant data Otherwise it results in a loss of money time and data

3 What do you understand by insurance Everyone has some kind of insurance whether it ismedical home or any other insurance Several businesses use statistical models based on anindividual application to calculate the risk of giving insurance Life tables are indispensable for thesolution of all questions relating to the duration of human life 4 Statistic plays significant role in financial market Statistics are the key of how traders andbusinessmen invest and make money

5 Statistics play a big role in the medical field For testing the efficacy of a manufacturing druginjection or medicine for controlling curing specific ailments most of the applications of medicalfields lies in using the tests of significance (more precisely studentrsquos t-test) The testing of theeffectiveness of a medicine by the manufacturing concern is a must since only after theeffectiveness of the medicine is proven by the sound statistical techniques that it will venture tomanufacture it on a large scale and bring it out in the market By statistical techniques (t and Fsignificance tests) comparative study of different medicines can also be made

(18)

6 In industry Statistical techniques are used in quality testing Companies manufacture manyproducts on a daily basis and every company make sure that they sell the best quality items Butcompanies cannot test all the products so they use sampling techniques which are a very importantaspect of statistical theory 7 We make variety of predictions in daily life For examples we keep the alarm for the morningwhen we donrsquot know that we will be alive in the morning or not Here we use statistics basics to makepredictions

8 Using statistics concepts doctors predict disease Suppose a survey shows that 75-80people have cancer and not able to find the reason Where the statistics is involved there you canhave a better idea on how the cancer may affect your body

9 News reporter makes a prediction of winner for elections based on political campaigns Herestatistics play a very important role to find out who will form the government 10 Statistics data allow us to collect the information around the world The internet is a devisewhich help us to collect the information The fundamental behind the internet is based on statisticsand mathematics concepts 11 Not only in peace times but in war times also statistics can be used very effectively It ispractically not possible to face a war without the factual data concerning the military strength of theenemy in terms of manpower military tanks war aeroplanes missiles ammunition etc

BIOSTATISTICS is the application of statisticalmethods in studies in biology andencompasses the design of experiments thecollection of data from them and the analysisand interpretation of data The data comes froma wide range of sources including genomicstudies experiments with cells and organismsand clinical trials Biostatistics is the applicationof statistical principles to questions andproblems in medicine public health or biologyOne can imagine that it might be of interest tocharacterize a given population with respect tothe proportion who has asthma and it wouldalso be important to estimate the magnitude ofthese problems over time or perhaps in differentlocations Statistics is a science of compilingclassifying and tabulating numerical data andexpressing the results in a mathematical andgraphical form whereas biostatistics is thebranch of statistics concerned with themathematical facts and data related to biologicalevents

Francis Galton created the statistical conceptcorrelation Sir Galton for the first time usedstatistical tools to study differences amonghuman population He also invented the use ofquestionnaires surveys for collecting data onhuman communities Biostatistics are the eventand application of statistical method to a goodrange of topic in biology It encompasses theplanning of biological experiments the gatheringand analysis of knowledge from thoseexperiments and therefore the interpretation ofthe results Biostatistics is sometimesdistinguished from the field of biometry basedupon whether applications are in the healthsciences (bio statistics) or in broader biology(biometry example agriculture ecology wildlifebiology) More and more things are nowmeasured quantitatively in medicine and publichealth There is a great deal of inherent variationin most biological processes Public health andmedicine are becoming increasingly quantitative

(20)

It is used to test whether the differencebetween two populations is real or by chanceoccurrence to study the correlation betweenattributes in the same population and toevaluate the achievements of public healthprograms Biostatistics has applications in allthe branches of life sciences such as formapping chromosomes for studying thebehavior of genes in a population and forconduction of drug treatment trails etcBiostatistics deals with data arising frombiomedical research It remains a very activeresearch area with complicated time-to-eventdata and missing data emerging in applicationareas including medicine geneticsneuroscience and engineering Recentadvances in biomedical research have creatednew challenges and opportunities forstatisticians and data scientists For examplebig data analysis precision medicine artificialintelligence causal inference and other newresearch fields have inspired data scientists todevelop modern statistical methods andinnovative inference procedures

As technology progresses the physicianencounters more and more quantitative ratherthan descriptive information In one sensestatistics is the language of assembling andhandling quantitative material Even if onersquosconcern is only with the results of other peoplersquosmanipulation and assemblage of data it isimportant to achieve some understanding of thislanguage in order to interpret their resultsproperly Statistics pervades the medicalliterature As a consequence of the increasinglyquantitative nature of public health and medicineand its reliance on statistical methodology themedical literature is replete with reports in whichstatistical techniques are used extensivelyBiostatistics is used to determine how diseasesdevelop progress and spread

For example biostatisticians use statistics topredict the behavior of an illness like flu It is usedto help predict the mortality rate the symptomsand even the time of year people might get it

Over 50 years ago there was a subject whichwas unnoticed and mainly focused on the studyand analysis of data Statisticians urgedacademic statistics to transcend its boundariesbeyond the realm of theoretical statistics Morestress was laid on data presentation Datascience is a discipline which is guided bycomputing informatics operation researchmathematics and statistics

Statistics is treated as the most important tool insorting and analysing data It is beneficial ingiving a deeper vision of the data Statisticswidely depends upon experiments and surveysWith the help of descriptive statisticscalculations like mean median etc can bedone on the data On the other hand inferentialstatistics helps in drawing inferences andconclusions from the population Both domainsof statistics play a very important role in DataScience In order to get a structured data andmaking predictions statistical methods and toolsare very essential They are able to carry outmany analytical tasks

Statistical Analysis is the study of surveying agiven set of data and observing patterns andtrends It is used in research fields to createstatistical models for performing certainexperiments on a population

The focus is to gather information from thesmallest quantity of data The experimentsinvolve accurate calculations and therefore giverespective results Statistics forms the base ofData Science It requires optimization of hugedatabases which is achieved with the help ofdifferent statistical tools In todayrsquos data drivenworld Data Science is turning out to be one ofthe most demanded professions Almost all firmsand companies are in search of data scientistsas the data keeps on piling up and the need ofinterpreting analysing and cleaning it is risingThe ultimate aim of Statistics and Data Scienceis to extricate cognizance from large amounts ofdata

Whenever the word lsquobusinessrsquo is heard lsquosalesrsquo isthe word which comes to our mind next and whatexactly assists sales is STATISTICS Donrsquotbelieve me but I am sure after reading the articleyou would all agree to my point too So what doesa businessman do He manufactures and sellsthe goods produced to the public but both ofthese basic functions of the businessman cannotbe transcended without the help of statistics toolssuch as survey statistics driven softwares tocollect and analyse the demand of the customerand to what extent ie the quantity in which it isrequired in order to maximize their total revenueThe graphs and the tables formed ie the statshelp them to know the exact condition of themarket and its inclination so that they could comeout with offers and discounts in order to attractpublic towards their product maximizing theirsales The businessmen who is believed to bevery quick and accurate in decision making is allassisted by statistics at every point fromanalysing their sales profit margins wages of theemployees the improvements required in theproduct the billing counters are all carriedforward with the help of statistical tools Thefinancial resources required for investing in thebusiness are also arranged according to theassistance given by the data analysts Themarketing and advertisement of the products alsoneeds statistics Now you would be thinking how

amp its regular maintenance is all handled bystatistical applications In order to calculate theaverage mean median loss profit and all theother commerce related terms in businessesdealing with large amount of data is all handledby statisticians Statistics also helps inmaintaining employee performancemanagement A manager collects data aboutemployee productivity such as the number oftasks completed or the number of unitsproduced He or she must analyse data to findways in which an employee should improve toachieve maximum productivity Manycompanies also collect data about employeeengagement and happiness on the job whichcan be tracked to not only keep workersmotivated but ensure they dont leave for otherpositions elsewhere This helps in increasingthe efficiency of the employees and also createsa healthy working environment I have listed lotof points to prove the importance of statistics inbusinesses and hope that you will now agree towhat I mentioned in the beginning of the article

Whenever a method of marketing is thought thepercentage of people to get influenced the agegroup to target the kind of offers to be laid downare all done through statistics You might haveheard that now data is the new oil that means lifeis all surrounded with data and for the data andthe demand for its upkeep and analysis the dataanalysts are required and in big organizationswho actually target all age groups and sell allkinds of products on a large scale have a largedatabase not only of the customers but also oftheir n number of employees So an organizationis incomplete without data and where there isdata there is statistics In fact I would say thatan organization isnrsquot an organization if they donot have data and its proper upkeep in such acase the company will surely drain out so thisactually proves how important statistics hasbecome in the business point of view Thebanking sector canrsquot function without statisticsand this banking business forms the backbone ofthe country since all the customers of the bankhave loads of data for a particular bank account

Statistics is the science of learning from dataStatistical knowledge helps an individual to usethe proper methods for collecting data employthe correct analysis and present the resultseffectively Statistical analysis is thus used inalmost all fields to make sense out of the vastamount of data that is available Thus statisticalmethodologies are not only useful in drawingimportant results but also play a significant role inproducing new findings and understanding thework of others One such field which has wideuse of the statistical techniques andmethodologies is the Insurance Sector Insuranceis basically the business of risk as it involves thetransfer of risk from one party to another

The main incoming and outgoing source ofincome in the business of insurance is throughpremiums and claims respectively Manystatistical models are used to model claimsand losses Parameters for these distributionsare estimated using Method of momentMaximum likelihood estimates etc and thenGoodness of fit testis applied to check howwell our distribution fits to the data Timeseries model plays an important role inforecasting future values Statistics is used toanswer the most important questions for theinsurance industry What percentage ofpolicies are expected to payout How muchmoney the company must expect to payout inclaims Different methods of data collectioneither in primary or secondary form are usedto determine the required reserves premiumand future predictions Apart from this manystatistical methods for eg Linear modelmethod which uses regression as the maintool in determining the factors affectingpremiums Loss distribution method in whichhistogram and bar graphs are made tocompare different categories and complexstatistical tools such as Ruin Theory and Run-off triangles are used to develop newproducts absorb and evaluate risk and ruinwhen balancing claims reserves andpremiums Thus statistics plays anirreplaceable role in the life cycle ofinsurance business for both life and non-life insurance

Statistics help in

Measuring the stability of drugs-II) Production of drugs according to demandsIII) Effectiveness of drugsIV) Quality control of drugs V) Marketing of drugs VI) Testing the side effects of the drug with thehelp of data VII) Going through the procedure of approvaland public distribution of drugs

Statistics in developing a drug

A lot of statistics tools are used duringproduction clinical trials and marketing andpublic distribution of drugs-1 Average (mean median and mode) Usedduring experiments like stability testingcombination of chemicals and checking acidity orbasicity of solutions to calculate mean averageresults2 Standard deviation and variance It is ameasure of testing precision Can be used toevaluate precision at various points in a processor to evaluate the precision between two differentmethods of the experiment3 Q test for rejecting data It is used to checkoutliers in data ie to check unusual deviation ina data set to see if it can be statistically rejected

4 Confidence limits It helps in finding theprobability of the true value being within acalculable range It makes use of multiplyingstandard deviation with studentrsquos t-factor thatdetermines the confidence interval of theobservation at the stated confidence level5 t F Chi-square and other tests Helps incomparing the results of two data sets For egside effects of different medication in the samepopulation6 Correlation Helps to detect the relationbetween two attributes of a data for eg howthe effect of a medicine increases or decreasesdue to the change in dosage how increase ordecrease in temperature affects the stability ofcertain medication

Clinical Trials

Clinical trials are research studies that evaluatenew ways to improve treatments and quality oflife for people with disease and in presentscenario global pandemic COVID-19 Resultsfrom Clinical trials help develop

1 New drugsvaccines 2 New diagnostic tools 3 New clinical procedures

Participants volunteer for clinical trials

(28)

In this method of stratified random sampling isused to divide the volunteers into different stratabased on shared attributes or characteristicssuch as gender medical conditions and otherspecifics These stratarsquos are used in differentphases of clinical trials

Clinical trials have 4 phases

Before trial begins volunteers need tounderstand the potential benefits and potentialrisks before participating in clinical trials thatrsquoswhy pre-clinical phase is conducted to test thenew treatment on animals and healthyvolunteers This part comes under descriptivestatistics where we are using the observed(benefits and risks) for further research Phase 1- In this new treatment is tested for thefirst time to know how treatment affects thebody to determine a safe dose range forvaccine and their side effects It involvesrelatively 20-80 volunteers Stats approach-Association analysis is performed to capture thecorrelations between drug therapeuticindications and side-effects In order to achievethis goal we adopted Fishers exact test whichis a widely used approach for measuring thesignificance of the association between twonominal variables For example to test thesignificance of the association between drugtherapeutic indications A and drug side effect B

Phase 2- The study involves how well a newtreatment or combination of treatment goes wellwith certain types of patients It involves up to300 patient volunteers For example out oftotal cancer patients half of the patients areselected randomly and are given cancertreatment along with new vaccine and other halfare given cancer treatment along with standardtreatment of corona virus Now side effects inboth the cases are noted Aim is to determinewhich combination of treatment will have lessside effects Chi- square test is used tocompare the side effects in both the cases Phase 3- In this phase effectiveness of addinga new treatment to the standard treatment isstudied 100-1000 volunteers participate in thisphase Stats approach- Participants arerandomly split into two groups 1st group(treatment group) receives the standardtreatment + new vaccine and 2nd group (controlgroup) receives standard treatment + placebo(a treatment that looks identical to the newtreatment but contains no active ingredient) Inthis phase mean time taken to develop antibodies in both the groups are compared usingZ-test (Test of significance for difference inmeans)

Phase 4- In this phase no volunteers areinvolved researchersrsquo monitor drug safety andeffectiveness It involves optimal usage

We all live in the digital era of hightechnologies smart devices and mobilesolutions Data is an essential aspect of anybusiness Itrsquos crucial to gather process andanalyse the data flow and to do that as quicklyand accurately as possible Nowadays the datavolume can be large which makes informationhandling time-consuming and expensive Dueto this precise reason the data science industryis growing at a rapid pace creating newpossibilities as well as opportunities and pythonis one of the solutions to understand andanalyse such big data sets It is a cross-functional language that has lots of advantagesto offer This object-oriented programminglanguage is commonly used to streamline largecomplex data sets Not only this it has a highreadability that helps data analysts to save timeby typing fewer lines of code for accomplishingthe tasks Therefore itrsquos not surprising at allthat it is claimed to be the preferredprogramming language for data science

Let me tell you why Python is a number oneoption for data analysis-

By Tanisha Gupta ( 3rd Year )

gtgt Easy to LearnBeing involved in development for web servicesmobile apps as well as coding Yes it is one ofthe most famous language characteristics Morethan that a low and thus fast learning curve isthe next pre-eminence of Python whencomparing it with older languages on offer

gtgt Well-SupportedHaving the experience of using some tools forfree you probably know that it is a challenge toget decent support but thatrsquos not the case withPython Despite the high simplicity there can besituations when you still need help with PythonBeing in widespread use like in industries oracademic areas Python has a broad array ofhelpful libraries with tons of helpful and supportmaterials The great benefit is that all thelibraries are available at no cost

gtgt ScalabilityThis Pythonrsquos feature is closely connected withthe previous option Comparing with otherlanguages like R Java python is much fasterand more scalable Therefore it is good invarious fields that can solve a wide range ofproblems Thatrsquos why many companies havemigrated to Python

(34)

gtgt Huge Libraries CollectionAs I have already mentioned Python is one ofthe most supported languages nowadays Ithas a long list of totally free libraries availablefor all the users Thatrsquos a key factor that givesa strong push for Python If yoursquore involved inthe field more likely you are acquainted withsuch names as Pandas SciPy Stats ModelsMatplotlib etc libraries that are intensivelyutilized in the data science community Hereyou can easily find a solution needed forhassle-free work without additional expenses

gtgt Graphics and Visualization ToolsItrsquos a well-known fact that visual information ismuch easier to understand operate andremember So here is some good news foryou There is a pack of diverse visualizationoptions available that makes python a must-have tool not only for data analysis but for alldata science You can make the data moreaccessible and easier to use by means ofcreating various charts and graphics as wellas interactive plots Always remember that thesuccess of your business directly depends onthe ability to extract knowledge and insightsfrom data to make effective strategicdecisions stay competitive and makeprogress and Python is the internationallyclaimed programming language to help us inhandling our data in a better manner for avariety of causes

ldquoCollege life is known as one of the most memorable years of astudentrsquos life exposing them to new experiences like meeting new

people learning new things exploring places etcrdquo

A registered clinical psychologist in Honk Kongnamed Zanonia Chiu said - ldquoGoing to school hadbeen a struggle for some children (withdepression) prior to the pandemic but at leastthey had school routines to stick with Now thatschools are closed some lock themselves upinside their rooms for weeks refusing to takeshowers eat or leave their beds For somechildren with depression there will beconsiderable difficulties adjusting back to normallife when college resumesrdquo and according to anonline survey conducted with the study periodfrom April 2020 to May 2020 - Total 531372 and 243 had symptoms of depressionanxiety and stress respectively with varyingseverities (N=727)The conclusion of the surveyindicated that COVID-19 is building psychologicaldistress among vulnerable college students asthey are forced to stay home along withworsening financial situations lifestyle changesfamily situations and time spent on variousactivities

Sounds so interesting and happening right Itis true indeed but along with stressful timeaside Along with the perks of enjoyingfreedom more than ever there comesacademic pressure tasks of separation fromfamilies career building futureresponsibilities etc Boarding on with thecollege life is a stressful time for manystudents thereby affecting their mental healthMental health problems are very commonamong college students and have been anincreasing concern However the COVID-19pandemic situation has brought this vulnerablepopulation into renewed focus Following thepandemic schools colleges offices andalmost every place that involved humaninteraction was shut It is important to note thatcollegeschool or even a normal routine areimportant coping mechanisms for youngpeople with mental health issues and wheneverything is shut down they lose an anchor inlife and their symptoms could relapse

Mental health among students is a big concernhowever ldquoUNTREATEDrdquo mental illnesses are amuch bigger and exponentially growingconcern Reaching out is an important step formental health issues to be addressed andtreated but reach out to who This is the pointwhere our institution should take over Collegesplay a big role in this stage Colleges doaddress this issue through means of orientationsessions and workshops but there is still a needto address mental health more directly Themethods to address mental health issuesshould be accessible feasible and affordablefor the students For example at NorthwesternUniversity student feedback led orientationenabled organizers to shift their focus fromexpert speakers to student testimonials Meansto address the issue vary from traditionalpresentations and panel discussions to roleplays small group discussions etc Herestudents learn how to recognize mental illnesssymptoms where to find resources andsupport and how to talk to friends who mightbe struggling

The findings of this study highlighted theurgent need to develop interventions andpreventive strategies to address the mentalhealth of college students Another InterviewSurvey study conducted by the Journal ofMedical Internet Research highlighted that of195 students 138 (71) indicated increasedstress and anxiety due to the COVID-19outbreak Multiple stressors were identified thatcontributed to the increased levels of stressanxiety and depressive thoughts amongstudents These included fear and worry abouttheir own health and of their loved ones(177195 91 reported negative impacts ofthe pandemic) difficulty in concentrating(173195 89) disruptions to sleepingpatterns (168195 86) decreased socialinteractions due to physical distancing(167195 86) and increased concerns onacademic performance (159195 82) Tocope with stress and anxiety participants havesought support from others and helpedthemselves by adopting either negative orpositive coping mechanisms It is important toknow that creating awareness about any issueis never enough action is what is neededTaking leave from workschool because of a fluor a fracture is acceptable and might even helpin the process of cure and healing howevertaking time off because of stress from a mentalillness such as anxiety or depressionunfortunately is not

lsquoOnline classrsquo is a term which most of us werenrsquotfamiliar with Before this pandemic we neverthought of getting education at home Covid hasaffected all of our lives In past pursuingeducation meant going to the schoolcollege Butnow the whole scenario has changed Childrenare studying and attending classes from homeJust like there are two sides of a coin onlineclasses also have some advantages anddisadvantages

Starting from the advantages it saves time forboth students and teachers as they donrsquot haveto travel All they have to do is to join throughtheir mobiles or laptops Secondly studentsdonrsquot have to necessarily buy books from theshops like they had to do in offline classesbecause they are given pdfs from which they canstudy Therefore it saves money Third it can beattended from anywhere in the world Unlike inthe offline classes where we had to gather at aparticular place Fourth computer basedpractical can be easily understood as studentscan share their screen with teachers Also it iseasy for teachers to explain a topic with the helpof pictures or animations which can be easilyfound on the internet

Last but not the least Parents can keep an eyeon their children whether they are studyingproperly or not

Apart from advantages it has somedisadvantages too First sitting beside thecomputer or mobile for hours affects the eyesightof both students and teachers Doctors arereporting many cases of eyestrain amongchildren since the online classes have startedSecondly students are becoming lazy as theydonrsquot have to go out of their home Like theproverb lsquoAll work and no play makes Jack a dullboyrsquo is really happening Third students canbunk in the online classes easily As they haveno fear of punishment they learned to disobeyand disrespect teachers Fourth students havebeen given lots of assignments as a result ofwhich most students are copying othersassignments and are not learning anything newFifth it is very difficult to communicate asteachers cannot give attention to each studentLastly it can be concluded that no matter howthe classes are being held a student must bededicated and sincere towards their studiesAfter all onersquos future depends on what they do intheir present

An actuary is a business executive professionally trained in the mathematical sciences Actuariesspecialize in the evaluation of financial riskmdashmost often in the context of life health and casualtyinsurance where they design analyse and refine varied programs to meet the insurance needs ofsociety A growing number of actuaries work in the areas of assetliability management and risk managementSome of these actuaries are employed by investment and consulting firms others are employed byinsurance companies

Actuaries have been called financial architects and social mathematicians because their combinedanalytical and business skills help solve a growing variety of financial and social problems Theactuarial profession is a demanding yet rewarding career choice

In a world bombarded with numerical information informed decisions rely on the ability to separatefact from fiction by applying valid statistical analyses and visualizations Statisticians can providecrucial guidance in determining what information is reliable and which predictions may be trustedThey often help search for clues to the solution of a scientific mystery and sometimes keepinvestigators from being misled by false impressions

Thousands of statisticians work in medicine law agriculture public policy marketing manufacturingengineering and other fields in the social and natural sciences The diversity of applications is anexciting aspect of the field and is one more reason why the demand for well-trained statisticianscontinues to be strong

Touching Your HeartWith Some

Poetry

Contributed by Dr Komal Goel

by Anubis the Philosomancer

(41)

Contributed by Dr Meenu Goel

The curtain lifts on Bryant Elementary Schools Spring Recorder Recital Ninety third-graders fumble with their instruments take a breath

and blow Their parents braced breathe too

as Hot Crossed Buns emerges a little scattershot -- the Normal Distribution brought to life

By Go Tell Aunt Rhodie the audience

is moved by their sheer pretty-goodness though one kid knocks her music to the floor

and another squeaks to demonstrate

the tail two standard deviations below the mean The curve implies

that somewhere on stage another kid

just played a note so sweet he might shatter Mrs Wedermeyers glasses And if

there are a mother and father who think

that child is theirs may they be forgiven even if the child shining in their eyes

is moving his fingers slightly out of rhythm

even if hes never led the bell curve in his life In consecutive measures of almost unison

its easy to believe these children are musicians

Their parents do so stirred by Ode to Joy they rise to their feet with the final phrase

clapping from the darkened auditorium

at once as one heroically like the parents theyve meant to be

EK NAYA SAFAR

Mubarak ho apko zindgi ka naya safar

Naya hai sheher nai hai dagar

Chut gaye kuch rishte purane

But donrsquot worry yaar mil jayenge naye diwane

Kuch tum jaise khuch tum se alag

So just smile and start a new life

Dosti yaari ko zara side mai rakh ke

Edhar gaur famiye janab

Course toh tumne acha chuna hai

Kuch socha hai ya ese hi liya hai

College mai admission jab hota hai

Toh andar khushi ke fuvare futne lagte hai

Lekin syllabus o dekh kar yeh bhi dagmagane lagte hai

Mana CP paas hai vahi maat ghumte rehna

Varna paper mai cafeacute ki menu sheet hi likhte rehna

Donrsquot take a chill pill coz yaha ki teachers hai thori strict

Just because they want you to be the best

Ab kya kare college ka har din mamuli nahi hota

Aur 9 se 4 sirf parai nahi hoti

Gumo firo esh karo but parna na bhulo

Mana es saal kuch zyada hi speed breakers hai

But the best part is hum sab bhi toh sath hai

PONDERINGAll of humanity is but a set of numbers You and I

are nothing more than a statisticJust think about any decision you had to take

recently No matter your choice you might findyourself ending up only as an infinitesimal

decimal in the final percentage of a statisticianrsquosdiscourse Let me give you an example pertinent

to the world we live in today Say yoursquore arepublican and have to decide whether to wear a

mask or not Naturally your political instinctmight warn you against it However you might

still be inclined to wear one because yoursquoregenuinely scared about what the ldquoliberalsrdquo have

to say about the SARS-COV-2 Now now letrsquos notgo off-topic here I know you might be wondering

what yoursquod do if you were in a Republicanrsquos shoesBut thatrsquos not the point

In the end it seldom matters whether you are arepublican or a liberal especially in situations

like these What matters in the end is if you didgo out without wearing that infuriating

smothering mask And if you contracted thewretched virus because of it If yes hard luck

Yoursquore nothing more than one of the 841 millionpeople who have it Thatrsquos all that people aroundthe world will see Not your gender not your ageand certainly not your political belief Of course

there will be studies about the correlation ofthese factors with the incidence rate of the

infections but thatrsquos another story altogether andnot one possibly as broad as the one we talk

aboutMoreover the correlation must not be

confused with causation Now perhaps thatrsquosa story for another day But think about it thisway whether you go to college or drop out of

high school whether you choose to live ordecide to die no matter the decision no

matter your inclination or choice whetheryou like it or not you will be nothing more

than a statisticIt might sound a bit gloomy to be honestWhen I first thought about it I felt almostinsignificant Like a tiny speck of dust in a

galaxy of stars Alas isnrsquot that all that we arethough

A pale blue dot in an ocean of stars Ourplanet one among millions or perhaps

billions of others All 78 billion of us fightingfor a place in the world knowing full well we

canrsquot all possibly have it It might makeanyone feel overwhelmed but therersquos

something about that that is so challenging itis almost inspiring We all know statistics andwe all know life But the true beauty of life lies

in the ability to defy statistics Only onequestion remains are you up for the

challenge

It wonrsquot be any exaggeration If itrsquos said that tools of statistician are used in almost all fields ofcalculation

Be it research finance sports marketing sales health care or population countingIt is a crucial process behind How we make discoveries in science

Making decisions or claiming predictions It plays a crucial play in all situationsStats is involved everywhere from collection to interpretation From explanation to

presentationStatistics helps avoiding a wide variety of analytical traps By making sure that study follow

apt methods in all aspectsChallenging your own assumptions Or drawing data-based conclusions

Statistics is always there Making things crisp and clear

It always seems impossible until it is done

If it makes you happyit doesnt have to make sense to others

When you cant find the sunshinebe the sunshine

Either you run the day or let the day run you

When you focus on the goodthe good gets better

It takes the same energy to worry as it doesto be positive so use your energy to thinkpositive and positive things will happen

The one thing that doesnt abide by majority rule is a persons conscience

Make happiness a priority and be gentle with yourself in the process

College the best start to unfold lifes beauty

Goodbye to the mistakes weve made remember the laughs weve shared

Will never forget these years

People are capable at anytime in their lives of doing what they dream of

Believe in Yourself

Be who you are and say what you feelbecause those who mind donrsquot matter and

those who matter donrsquot mind

Success is liking yourself liking what you do and liking how you do it

Happiness is a by-product of an effort to make someone else happy

If you are not willing to risk the unusual you will have to settle for the ordinary

Always keep it clean simple and precise

Hustle until you no longer have to introduce yourself

Dream it Wish it Do it

Your energy introduces you evenbefore you speak

Your mistake dont define your character Itswhat you do after you make mistake that

makes all the difference

Thats What ~She

Life is what passes by while youare busy making other plans

Let us be grateful to people who make ushappy they are the charming gardeners who

make our souls blossom

Confidence is not substitute forclarity to be successful you need

clarity not confidence

Attitude is a little thing that makesa big difference

Be who you are and say what you feelbecause those who mind dont matterand those who matter dont mindrdquo

nights make way

All I want is to have the world dominatedby women

Because men will not leave their position sowhy will we demand equality

ALUMINI SPEAKSIts been a privilege to be the leading batch of the Department of StatisticsMata Sundri College None less than a roller coaster with every newchallenge we have rocked it on together With the amazing faculty it neverfelt like we needed the Seniors We have created our paths and wont letour juniors struggle for it always there to their rescue I have been a part of the statistics society for all the years and haveexperienced the best of it I see the society and the department growingwhich surely adds a feather to my capWishing for the best of it with all my heartI wish I could relive those best three years spent at the department witheveryone in my batch and the teachersGood luck

Sometimes the most beautiful things happen in the most unexpected waysI still canrsquot get over the fact that my 3 years-long and the beautiful journeycame to an end I never thought that I would make such beautiful bonds incollege be it with the teachers or my classmates Mata Sundri College will always have a special place in my heart and in mylife It is this place that made me realize my true potential I entered thecollege with almost no expectations But looking back at the time I nowfeel that those years were the most special and the most beautiful onesThe kind of love and support I received from all the teachers cannot bedescribed in words The personal connection which I still have with myteachers would be missing had I been in some other college I amextremely grateful to them It was because of them that I started loving mysubject Statistics All the hard work put in by my teachers and by myselfpaid off in the end Never did I imagine that I would become the Universitytopper I still feel that I am living in a dream

It is one of my greatest accomplishments Receiving the Medal from theHonrsquoble Education Minister Shri Ramesh Pokhriyal was a matter of pride Ifeel so happy seeing my parents and teachers being proud of me I surelyknow that whenever Irsquoll need some help in the future my teachers willalways be there to guide me The only regret is that we didnrsquot get a chance to greet the teachers and ourfellow classmates one last time due to the pandemic But keeping thataside I will always cherish my journey Thank you Mata Sundri College forthe amazing experience

6 In industry Statistical techniques are used in quality testing Companies manufacture manyproducts on a daily basis and every company make sure that they sell the best quality items Butcompanies cannot test all the products so they use sampling techniques which are a very importantaspect of statistical theory 7 We make variety of predictions in daily life For examples we keep the alarm for the morningwhen we donrsquot know that we will be alive in the morning or not Here we use statistics basics to makepredictions

8 Using statistics concepts doctors predict disease Suppose a survey shows that 75-80people have cancer and not able to find the reason Where the statistics is involved there you canhave a better idea on how the cancer may affect your body

9 News reporter makes a prediction of winner for elections based on political campaigns Herestatistics play a very important role to find out who will form the government 10 Statistics data allow us to collect the information around the world The internet is a devisewhich help us to collect the information The fundamental behind the internet is based on statisticsand mathematics concepts 11 Not only in peace times but in war times also statistics can be used very effectively It ispractically not possible to face a war without the factual data concerning the military strength of theenemy in terms of manpower military tanks war aeroplanes missiles ammunition etc

BIOSTATISTICS is the application of statisticalmethods in studies in biology andencompasses the design of experiments thecollection of data from them and the analysisand interpretation of data The data comes froma wide range of sources including genomicstudies experiments with cells and organismsand clinical trials Biostatistics is the applicationof statistical principles to questions andproblems in medicine public health or biologyOne can imagine that it might be of interest tocharacterize a given population with respect tothe proportion who has asthma and it wouldalso be important to estimate the magnitude ofthese problems over time or perhaps in differentlocations Statistics is a science of compilingclassifying and tabulating numerical data andexpressing the results in a mathematical andgraphical form whereas biostatistics is thebranch of statistics concerned with themathematical facts and data related to biologicalevents

Francis Galton created the statistical conceptcorrelation Sir Galton for the first time usedstatistical tools to study differences amonghuman population He also invented the use ofquestionnaires surveys for collecting data onhuman communities Biostatistics are the eventand application of statistical method to a goodrange of topic in biology It encompasses theplanning of biological experiments the gatheringand analysis of knowledge from thoseexperiments and therefore the interpretation ofthe results Biostatistics is sometimesdistinguished from the field of biometry basedupon whether applications are in the healthsciences (bio statistics) or in broader biology(biometry example agriculture ecology wildlifebiology) More and more things are nowmeasured quantitatively in medicine and publichealth There is a great deal of inherent variationin most biological processes Public health andmedicine are becoming increasingly quantitative

(20)

It is used to test whether the differencebetween two populations is real or by chanceoccurrence to study the correlation betweenattributes in the same population and toevaluate the achievements of public healthprograms Biostatistics has applications in allthe branches of life sciences such as formapping chromosomes for studying thebehavior of genes in a population and forconduction of drug treatment trails etcBiostatistics deals with data arising frombiomedical research It remains a very activeresearch area with complicated time-to-eventdata and missing data emerging in applicationareas including medicine geneticsneuroscience and engineering Recentadvances in biomedical research have creatednew challenges and opportunities forstatisticians and data scientists For examplebig data analysis precision medicine artificialintelligence causal inference and other newresearch fields have inspired data scientists todevelop modern statistical methods andinnovative inference procedures

As technology progresses the physicianencounters more and more quantitative ratherthan descriptive information In one sensestatistics is the language of assembling andhandling quantitative material Even if onersquosconcern is only with the results of other peoplersquosmanipulation and assemblage of data it isimportant to achieve some understanding of thislanguage in order to interpret their resultsproperly Statistics pervades the medicalliterature As a consequence of the increasinglyquantitative nature of public health and medicineand its reliance on statistical methodology themedical literature is replete with reports in whichstatistical techniques are used extensivelyBiostatistics is used to determine how diseasesdevelop progress and spread

For example biostatisticians use statistics topredict the behavior of an illness like flu It is usedto help predict the mortality rate the symptomsand even the time of year people might get it

Over 50 years ago there was a subject whichwas unnoticed and mainly focused on the studyand analysis of data Statisticians urgedacademic statistics to transcend its boundariesbeyond the realm of theoretical statistics Morestress was laid on data presentation Datascience is a discipline which is guided bycomputing informatics operation researchmathematics and statistics

Statistics is treated as the most important tool insorting and analysing data It is beneficial ingiving a deeper vision of the data Statisticswidely depends upon experiments and surveysWith the help of descriptive statisticscalculations like mean median etc can bedone on the data On the other hand inferentialstatistics helps in drawing inferences andconclusions from the population Both domainsof statistics play a very important role in DataScience In order to get a structured data andmaking predictions statistical methods and toolsare very essential They are able to carry outmany analytical tasks

Statistical Analysis is the study of surveying agiven set of data and observing patterns andtrends It is used in research fields to createstatistical models for performing certainexperiments on a population

The focus is to gather information from thesmallest quantity of data The experimentsinvolve accurate calculations and therefore giverespective results Statistics forms the base ofData Science It requires optimization of hugedatabases which is achieved with the help ofdifferent statistical tools In todayrsquos data drivenworld Data Science is turning out to be one ofthe most demanded professions Almost all firmsand companies are in search of data scientistsas the data keeps on piling up and the need ofinterpreting analysing and cleaning it is risingThe ultimate aim of Statistics and Data Scienceis to extricate cognizance from large amounts ofdata

Whenever the word lsquobusinessrsquo is heard lsquosalesrsquo isthe word which comes to our mind next and whatexactly assists sales is STATISTICS Donrsquotbelieve me but I am sure after reading the articleyou would all agree to my point too So what doesa businessman do He manufactures and sellsthe goods produced to the public but both ofthese basic functions of the businessman cannotbe transcended without the help of statistics toolssuch as survey statistics driven softwares tocollect and analyse the demand of the customerand to what extent ie the quantity in which it isrequired in order to maximize their total revenueThe graphs and the tables formed ie the statshelp them to know the exact condition of themarket and its inclination so that they could comeout with offers and discounts in order to attractpublic towards their product maximizing theirsales The businessmen who is believed to bevery quick and accurate in decision making is allassisted by statistics at every point fromanalysing their sales profit margins wages of theemployees the improvements required in theproduct the billing counters are all carriedforward with the help of statistical tools Thefinancial resources required for investing in thebusiness are also arranged according to theassistance given by the data analysts Themarketing and advertisement of the products alsoneeds statistics Now you would be thinking how

amp its regular maintenance is all handled bystatistical applications In order to calculate theaverage mean median loss profit and all theother commerce related terms in businessesdealing with large amount of data is all handledby statisticians Statistics also helps inmaintaining employee performancemanagement A manager collects data aboutemployee productivity such as the number oftasks completed or the number of unitsproduced He or she must analyse data to findways in which an employee should improve toachieve maximum productivity Manycompanies also collect data about employeeengagement and happiness on the job whichcan be tracked to not only keep workersmotivated but ensure they dont leave for otherpositions elsewhere This helps in increasingthe efficiency of the employees and also createsa healthy working environment I have listed lotof points to prove the importance of statistics inbusinesses and hope that you will now agree towhat I mentioned in the beginning of the article

Whenever a method of marketing is thought thepercentage of people to get influenced the agegroup to target the kind of offers to be laid downare all done through statistics You might haveheard that now data is the new oil that means lifeis all surrounded with data and for the data andthe demand for its upkeep and analysis the dataanalysts are required and in big organizationswho actually target all age groups and sell allkinds of products on a large scale have a largedatabase not only of the customers but also oftheir n number of employees So an organizationis incomplete without data and where there isdata there is statistics In fact I would say thatan organization isnrsquot an organization if they donot have data and its proper upkeep in such acase the company will surely drain out so thisactually proves how important statistics hasbecome in the business point of view Thebanking sector canrsquot function without statisticsand this banking business forms the backbone ofthe country since all the customers of the bankhave loads of data for a particular bank account

Statistics is the science of learning from dataStatistical knowledge helps an individual to usethe proper methods for collecting data employthe correct analysis and present the resultseffectively Statistical analysis is thus used inalmost all fields to make sense out of the vastamount of data that is available Thus statisticalmethodologies are not only useful in drawingimportant results but also play a significant role inproducing new findings and understanding thework of others One such field which has wideuse of the statistical techniques andmethodologies is the Insurance Sector Insuranceis basically the business of risk as it involves thetransfer of risk from one party to another

The main incoming and outgoing source ofincome in the business of insurance is throughpremiums and claims respectively Manystatistical models are used to model claimsand losses Parameters for these distributionsare estimated using Method of momentMaximum likelihood estimates etc and thenGoodness of fit testis applied to check howwell our distribution fits to the data Timeseries model plays an important role inforecasting future values Statistics is used toanswer the most important questions for theinsurance industry What percentage ofpolicies are expected to payout How muchmoney the company must expect to payout inclaims Different methods of data collectioneither in primary or secondary form are usedto determine the required reserves premiumand future predictions Apart from this manystatistical methods for eg Linear modelmethod which uses regression as the maintool in determining the factors affectingpremiums Loss distribution method in whichhistogram and bar graphs are made tocompare different categories and complexstatistical tools such as Ruin Theory and Run-off triangles are used to develop newproducts absorb and evaluate risk and ruinwhen balancing claims reserves andpremiums Thus statistics plays anirreplaceable role in the life cycle ofinsurance business for both life and non-life insurance

Statistics help in

Measuring the stability of drugs-II) Production of drugs according to demandsIII) Effectiveness of drugsIV) Quality control of drugs V) Marketing of drugs VI) Testing the side effects of the drug with thehelp of data VII) Going through the procedure of approvaland public distribution of drugs

Statistics in developing a drug

A lot of statistics tools are used duringproduction clinical trials and marketing andpublic distribution of drugs-1 Average (mean median and mode) Usedduring experiments like stability testingcombination of chemicals and checking acidity orbasicity of solutions to calculate mean averageresults2 Standard deviation and variance It is ameasure of testing precision Can be used toevaluate precision at various points in a processor to evaluate the precision between two differentmethods of the experiment3 Q test for rejecting data It is used to checkoutliers in data ie to check unusual deviation ina data set to see if it can be statistically rejected

4 Confidence limits It helps in finding theprobability of the true value being within acalculable range It makes use of multiplyingstandard deviation with studentrsquos t-factor thatdetermines the confidence interval of theobservation at the stated confidence level5 t F Chi-square and other tests Helps incomparing the results of two data sets For egside effects of different medication in the samepopulation6 Correlation Helps to detect the relationbetween two attributes of a data for eg howthe effect of a medicine increases or decreasesdue to the change in dosage how increase ordecrease in temperature affects the stability ofcertain medication

Clinical Trials

Clinical trials are research studies that evaluatenew ways to improve treatments and quality oflife for people with disease and in presentscenario global pandemic COVID-19 Resultsfrom Clinical trials help develop

1 New drugsvaccines 2 New diagnostic tools 3 New clinical procedures

Participants volunteer for clinical trials

(28)

In this method of stratified random sampling isused to divide the volunteers into different stratabased on shared attributes or characteristicssuch as gender medical conditions and otherspecifics These stratarsquos are used in differentphases of clinical trials

Clinical trials have 4 phases

Before trial begins volunteers need tounderstand the potential benefits and potentialrisks before participating in clinical trials thatrsquoswhy pre-clinical phase is conducted to test thenew treatment on animals and healthyvolunteers This part comes under descriptivestatistics where we are using the observed(benefits and risks) for further research Phase 1- In this new treatment is tested for thefirst time to know how treatment affects thebody to determine a safe dose range forvaccine and their side effects It involvesrelatively 20-80 volunteers Stats approach-Association analysis is performed to capture thecorrelations between drug therapeuticindications and side-effects In order to achievethis goal we adopted Fishers exact test whichis a widely used approach for measuring thesignificance of the association between twonominal variables For example to test thesignificance of the association between drugtherapeutic indications A and drug side effect B

Phase 2- The study involves how well a newtreatment or combination of treatment goes wellwith certain types of patients It involves up to300 patient volunteers For example out oftotal cancer patients half of the patients areselected randomly and are given cancertreatment along with new vaccine and other halfare given cancer treatment along with standardtreatment of corona virus Now side effects inboth the cases are noted Aim is to determinewhich combination of treatment will have lessside effects Chi- square test is used tocompare the side effects in both the cases Phase 3- In this phase effectiveness of addinga new treatment to the standard treatment isstudied 100-1000 volunteers participate in thisphase Stats approach- Participants arerandomly split into two groups 1st group(treatment group) receives the standardtreatment + new vaccine and 2nd group (controlgroup) receives standard treatment + placebo(a treatment that looks identical to the newtreatment but contains no active ingredient) Inthis phase mean time taken to develop antibodies in both the groups are compared usingZ-test (Test of significance for difference inmeans)

Phase 4- In this phase no volunteers areinvolved researchersrsquo monitor drug safety andeffectiveness It involves optimal usage

ldquoCollege life is known as one of the most memorable years of astudentrsquos life exposing them to new experiences like meeting new

people learning new things exploring places etcrdquo

A registered clinical psychologist in Honk Kongnamed Zanonia Chiu said - ldquoGoing to school hadbeen a struggle for some children (withdepression) prior to the pandemic but at leastthey had school routines to stick with Now thatschools are closed some lock themselves upinside their rooms for weeks refusing to takeshowers eat or leave their beds For somechildren with depression there will beconsiderable difficulties adjusting back to normallife when college resumesrdquo and according to anonline survey conducted with the study periodfrom April 2020 to May 2020 - Total 531372 and 243 had symptoms of depressionanxiety and stress respectively with varyingseverities (N=727)The conclusion of the surveyindicated that COVID-19 is building psychologicaldistress among vulnerable college students asthey are forced to stay home along withworsening financial situations lifestyle changesfamily situations and time spent on variousactivities

Sounds so interesting and happening right Itis true indeed but along with stressful timeaside Along with the perks of enjoyingfreedom more than ever there comesacademic pressure tasks of separation fromfamilies career building futureresponsibilities etc Boarding on with thecollege life is a stressful time for manystudents thereby affecting their mental healthMental health problems are very commonamong college students and have been anincreasing concern However the COVID-19pandemic situation has brought this vulnerablepopulation into renewed focus Following thepandemic schools colleges offices andalmost every place that involved humaninteraction was shut It is important to note thatcollegeschool or even a normal routine areimportant coping mechanisms for youngpeople with mental health issues and wheneverything is shut down they lose an anchor inlife and their symptoms could relapse

Mental health among students is a big concernhowever ldquoUNTREATEDrdquo mental illnesses are amuch bigger and exponentially growingconcern Reaching out is an important step formental health issues to be addressed andtreated but reach out to who This is the pointwhere our institution should take over Collegesplay a big role in this stage Colleges doaddress this issue through means of orientationsessions and workshops but there is still a needto address mental health more directly Themethods to address mental health issuesshould be accessible feasible and affordablefor the students For example at NorthwesternUniversity student feedback led orientationenabled organizers to shift their focus fromexpert speakers to student testimonials Meansto address the issue vary from traditionalpresentations and panel discussions to roleplays small group discussions etc Herestudents learn how to recognize mental illnesssymptoms where to find resources andsupport and how to talk to friends who mightbe struggling

The findings of this study highlighted theurgent need to develop interventions andpreventive strategies to address the mentalhealth of college students Another InterviewSurvey study conducted by the Journal ofMedical Internet Research highlighted that of195 students 138 (71) indicated increasedstress and anxiety due to the COVID-19outbreak Multiple stressors were identified thatcontributed to the increased levels of stressanxiety and depressive thoughts amongstudents These included fear and worry abouttheir own health and of their loved ones(177195 91 reported negative impacts ofthe pandemic) difficulty in concentrating(173195 89) disruptions to sleepingpatterns (168195 86) decreased socialinteractions due to physical distancing(167195 86) and increased concerns onacademic performance (159195 82) Tocope with stress and anxiety participants havesought support from others and helpedthemselves by adopting either negative orpositive coping mechanisms It is important toknow that creating awareness about any issueis never enough action is what is neededTaking leave from workschool because of a fluor a fracture is acceptable and might even helpin the process of cure and healing howevertaking time off because of stress from a mentalillness such as anxiety or depressionunfortunately is not

lsquoOnline classrsquo is a term which most of us werenrsquotfamiliar with Before this pandemic we neverthought of getting education at home Covid hasaffected all of our lives In past pursuingeducation meant going to the schoolcollege Butnow the whole scenario has changed Childrenare studying and attending classes from homeJust like there are two sides of a coin onlineclasses also have some advantages anddisadvantages

Starting from the advantages it saves time forboth students and teachers as they donrsquot haveto travel All they have to do is to join throughtheir mobiles or laptops Secondly studentsdonrsquot have to necessarily buy books from theshops like they had to do in offline classesbecause they are given pdfs from which they canstudy Therefore it saves money Third it can beattended from anywhere in the world Unlike inthe offline classes where we had to gather at aparticular place Fourth computer basedpractical can be easily understood as studentscan share their screen with teachers Also it iseasy for teachers to explain a topic with the helpof pictures or animations which can be easilyfound on the internet

Last but not the least Parents can keep an eyeon their children whether they are studyingproperly or not

Apart from advantages it has somedisadvantages too First sitting beside thecomputer or mobile for hours affects the eyesightof both students and teachers Doctors arereporting many cases of eyestrain amongchildren since the online classes have startedSecondly students are becoming lazy as theydonrsquot have to go out of their home Like theproverb lsquoAll work and no play makes Jack a dullboyrsquo is really happening Third students canbunk in the online classes easily As they haveno fear of punishment they learned to disobeyand disrespect teachers Fourth students havebeen given lots of assignments as a result ofwhich most students are copying othersassignments and are not learning anything newFifth it is very difficult to communicate asteachers cannot give attention to each studentLastly it can be concluded that no matter howthe classes are being held a student must bededicated and sincere towards their studiesAfter all onersquos future depends on what they do intheir present

An actuary is a business executive professionally trained in the mathematical sciences Actuariesspecialize in the evaluation of financial riskmdashmost often in the context of life health and casualtyinsurance where they design analyse and refine varied programs to meet the insurance needs ofsociety A growing number of actuaries work in the areas of assetliability management and risk managementSome of these actuaries are employed by investment and consulting firms others are employed byinsurance companies

Actuaries have been called financial architects and social mathematicians because their combinedanalytical and business skills help solve a growing variety of financial and social problems Theactuarial profession is a demanding yet rewarding career choice

In a world bombarded with numerical information informed decisions rely on the ability to separatefact from fiction by applying valid statistical analyses and visualizations Statisticians can providecrucial guidance in determining what information is reliable and which predictions may be trustedThey often help search for clues to the solution of a scientific mystery and sometimes keepinvestigators from being misled by false impressions

Thousands of statisticians work in medicine law agriculture public policy marketing manufacturingengineering and other fields in the social and natural sciences The diversity of applications is anexciting aspect of the field and is one more reason why the demand for well-trained statisticianscontinues to be strong

Poetry

Contributed by Dr Komal Goel

by Anubis the Philosomancer

(41)

Contributed by Dr Meenu Goel

The curtain lifts on Bryant Elementary Schools Spring Recorder Recital Ninety third-graders fumble with their instruments take a breath

and blow Their parents braced breathe too

as Hot Crossed Buns emerges a little scattershot -- the Normal Distribution brought to life

By Go Tell Aunt Rhodie the audience

is moved by their sheer pretty-goodness though one kid knocks her music to the floor

and another squeaks to demonstrate

the tail two standard deviations below the mean The curve implies

that somewhere on stage another kid

just played a note so sweet he might shatter Mrs Wedermeyers glasses And if

there are a mother and father who think

that child is theirs may they be forgiven even if the child shining in their eyes

is moving his fingers slightly out of rhythm

even if hes never led the bell curve in his life In consecutive measures of almost unison

its easy to believe these children are musicians

Their parents do so stirred by Ode to Joy they rise to their feet with the final phrase

clapping from the darkened auditorium

at once as one heroically like the parents theyve meant to be

EK NAYA SAFAR

Mubarak ho apko zindgi ka naya safar

Naya hai sheher nai hai dagar

Chut gaye kuch rishte purane

But donrsquot worry yaar mil jayenge naye diwane

Kuch tum jaise khuch tum se alag

So just smile and start a new life

Dosti yaari ko zara side mai rakh ke

Edhar gaur famiye janab

Course toh tumne acha chuna hai

Kuch socha hai ya ese hi liya hai

College mai admission jab hota hai

Toh andar khushi ke fuvare futne lagte hai

Lekin syllabus o dekh kar yeh bhi dagmagane lagte hai

Mana CP paas hai vahi maat ghumte rehna

Varna paper mai cafeacute ki menu sheet hi likhte rehna

Donrsquot take a chill pill coz yaha ki teachers hai thori strict

Just because they want you to be the best

Ab kya kare college ka har din mamuli nahi hota

Aur 9 se 4 sirf parai nahi hoti

Gumo firo esh karo but parna na bhulo

Mana es saal kuch zyada hi speed breakers hai

But the best part is hum sab bhi toh sath hai

PONDERINGAll of humanity is but a set of numbers You and I

are nothing more than a statisticJust think about any decision you had to take

recently No matter your choice you might findyourself ending up only as an infinitesimal

decimal in the final percentage of a statisticianrsquosdiscourse Let me give you an example pertinent

to the world we live in today Say yoursquore arepublican and have to decide whether to wear a

mask or not Naturally your political instinctmight warn you against it However you might

still be inclined to wear one because yoursquoregenuinely scared about what the ldquoliberalsrdquo have

to say about the SARS-COV-2 Now now letrsquos notgo off-topic here I know you might be wondering

what yoursquod do if you were in a Republicanrsquos shoesBut thatrsquos not the point

In the end it seldom matters whether you are arepublican or a liberal especially in situations

like these What matters in the end is if you didgo out without wearing that infuriating

smothering mask And if you contracted thewretched virus because of it If yes hard luck

Yoursquore nothing more than one of the 841 millionpeople who have it Thatrsquos all that people aroundthe world will see Not your gender not your ageand certainly not your political belief Of course

there will be studies about the correlation ofthese factors with the incidence rate of the

infections but thatrsquos another story altogether andnot one possibly as broad as the one we talk

aboutMoreover the correlation must not be

confused with causation Now perhaps thatrsquosa story for another day But think about it thisway whether you go to college or drop out of

high school whether you choose to live ordecide to die no matter the decision no

matter your inclination or choice whetheryou like it or not you will be nothing more

than a statisticIt might sound a bit gloomy to be honestWhen I first thought about it I felt almostinsignificant Like a tiny speck of dust in a

galaxy of stars Alas isnrsquot that all that we arethough

A pale blue dot in an ocean of stars Ourplanet one among millions or perhaps

billions of others All 78 billion of us fightingfor a place in the world knowing full well we

canrsquot all possibly have it It might makeanyone feel overwhelmed but therersquos

something about that that is so challenging itis almost inspiring We all know statistics andwe all know life But the true beauty of life lies

in the ability to defy statistics Only onequestion remains are you up for the

challenge

It wonrsquot be any exaggeration If itrsquos said that tools of statistician are used in almost all fields ofcalculation

Be it research finance sports marketing sales health care or population countingIt is a crucial process behind How we make discoveries in science

It always seems impossible until it is done

If it makes you happyit doesnt have to make sense to others

When you cant find the sunshinebe the sunshine

Either you run the day or let the day run you

When you focus on the goodthe good gets better

It takes the same energy to worry as it doesto be positive so use your energy to thinkpositive and positive things will happen

The one thing that doesnt abide by majority rule is a persons conscience

Make happiness a priority and be gentle with yourself in the process

College the best start to unfold lifes beauty

Goodbye to the mistakes weve made remember the laughs weve shared

Will never forget these years

Believe in Yourself

Be who you are and say what you feelbecause those who mind donrsquot matter and

those who matter donrsquot mind

Success is liking yourself liking what you do and liking how you do it

Happiness is a by-product of an effort to make someone else happy

If you are not willing to risk the unusual you will have to settle for the ordinary

Always keep it clean simple and precise

Hustle until you no longer have to introduce yourself

ALUMINI SPEAKSIts been a privilege to be the leading batch of the Department of StatisticsMata Sundri College None less than a roller coaster with every newchallenge we have rocked it on together With the amazing faculty it neverfelt like we needed the Seniors We have created our paths and wont letour juniors struggle for it always there to their rescue I have been a part of the statistics society for all the years and haveexperienced the best of it I see the society and the department growingwhich surely adds a feather to my capWishing for the best of it with all my heartI wish I could relive those best three years spent at the department witheveryone in my batch and the teachersGood luck

Sometimes the most beautiful things happen in the most unexpected waysI still canrsquot get over the fact that my 3 years-long and the beautiful journeycame to an end I never thought that I would make such beautiful bonds incollege be it with the teachers or my classmates Mata Sundri College will always have a special place in my heart and in mylife It is this place that made me realize my true potential I entered thecollege with almost no expectations But looking back at the time I nowfeel that those years were the most special and the most beautiful onesThe kind of love and support I received from all the teachers cannot bedescribed in words The personal connection which I still have with myteachers would be missing had I been in some other college I amextremely grateful to them It was because of them that I started loving mysubject Statistics All the hard work put in by my teachers and by myselfpaid off in the end Never did I imagine that I would become the Universitytopper I still feel that I am living in a dream

It is one of my greatest accomplishments Receiving the Medal from theHonrsquoble Education Minister Shri Ramesh Pokhriyal was a matter of pride Ifeel so happy seeing my parents and teachers being proud of me I surelyknow that whenever Irsquoll need some help in the future my teachers willalways be there to guide me The only regret is that we didnrsquot get a chance to greet the teachers and ourfellow classmates one last time due to the pandemic But keeping thataside I will always cherish my journey Thank you Mata Sundri College forthe amazing experience

BIOSTATISTICS is the application of statisticalmethods in studies in biology andencompasses the design of experiments thecollection of data from them and the analysisand interpretation of data The data comes froma wide range of sources including genomicstudies experiments with cells and organismsand clinical trials Biostatistics is the applicationof statistical principles to questions andproblems in medicine public health or biologyOne can imagine that it might be of interest tocharacterize a given population with respect tothe proportion who has asthma and it wouldalso be important to estimate the magnitude ofthese problems over time or perhaps in differentlocations Statistics is a science of compilingclassifying and tabulating numerical data andexpressing the results in a mathematical andgraphical form whereas biostatistics is thebranch of statistics concerned with themathematical facts and data related to biologicalevents

Francis Galton created the statistical conceptcorrelation Sir Galton for the first time usedstatistical tools to study differences amonghuman population He also invented the use ofquestionnaires surveys for collecting data onhuman communities Biostatistics are the eventand application of statistical method to a goodrange of topic in biology It encompasses theplanning of biological experiments the gatheringand analysis of knowledge from thoseexperiments and therefore the interpretation ofthe results Biostatistics is sometimesdistinguished from the field of biometry basedupon whether applications are in the healthsciences (bio statistics) or in broader biology(biometry example agriculture ecology wildlifebiology) More and more things are nowmeasured quantitatively in medicine and publichealth There is a great deal of inherent variationin most biological processes Public health andmedicine are becoming increasingly quantitative

(20)

It is used to test whether the differencebetween two populations is real or by chanceoccurrence to study the correlation betweenattributes in the same population and toevaluate the achievements of public healthprograms Biostatistics has applications in allthe branches of life sciences such as formapping chromosomes for studying thebehavior of genes in a population and forconduction of drug treatment trails etcBiostatistics deals with data arising frombiomedical research It remains a very activeresearch area with complicated time-to-eventdata and missing data emerging in applicationareas including medicine geneticsneuroscience and engineering Recentadvances in biomedical research have creatednew challenges and opportunities forstatisticians and data scientists For examplebig data analysis precision medicine artificialintelligence causal inference and other newresearch fields have inspired data scientists todevelop modern statistical methods andinnovative inference procedures

As technology progresses the physicianencounters more and more quantitative ratherthan descriptive information In one sensestatistics is the language of assembling andhandling quantitative material Even if onersquosconcern is only with the results of other peoplersquosmanipulation and assemblage of data it isimportant to achieve some understanding of thislanguage in order to interpret their resultsproperly Statistics pervades the medicalliterature As a consequence of the increasinglyquantitative nature of public health and medicineand its reliance on statistical methodology themedical literature is replete with reports in whichstatistical techniques are used extensivelyBiostatistics is used to determine how diseasesdevelop progress and spread

For example biostatisticians use statistics topredict the behavior of an illness like flu It is usedto help predict the mortality rate the symptomsand even the time of year people might get it

Over 50 years ago there was a subject whichwas unnoticed and mainly focused on the studyand analysis of data Statisticians urgedacademic statistics to transcend its boundariesbeyond the realm of theoretical statistics Morestress was laid on data presentation Datascience is a discipline which is guided bycomputing informatics operation researchmathematics and statistics

Statistics is treated as the most important tool insorting and analysing data It is beneficial ingiving a deeper vision of the data Statisticswidely depends upon experiments and surveysWith the help of descriptive statisticscalculations like mean median etc can bedone on the data On the other hand inferentialstatistics helps in drawing inferences andconclusions from the population Both domainsof statistics play a very important role in DataScience In order to get a structured data andmaking predictions statistical methods and toolsare very essential They are able to carry outmany analytical tasks

Statistical Analysis is the study of surveying agiven set of data and observing patterns andtrends It is used in research fields to createstatistical models for performing certainexperiments on a population

The focus is to gather information from thesmallest quantity of data The experimentsinvolve accurate calculations and therefore giverespective results Statistics forms the base ofData Science It requires optimization of hugedatabases which is achieved with the help ofdifferent statistical tools In todayrsquos data drivenworld Data Science is turning out to be one ofthe most demanded professions Almost all firmsand companies are in search of data scientistsas the data keeps on piling up and the need ofinterpreting analysing and cleaning it is risingThe ultimate aim of Statistics and Data Scienceis to extricate cognizance from large amounts ofdata

Whenever the word lsquobusinessrsquo is heard lsquosalesrsquo isthe word which comes to our mind next and whatexactly assists sales is STATISTICS Donrsquotbelieve me but I am sure after reading the articleyou would all agree to my point too So what doesa businessman do He manufactures and sellsthe goods produced to the public but both ofthese basic functions of the businessman cannotbe transcended without the help of statistics toolssuch as survey statistics driven softwares tocollect and analyse the demand of the customerand to what extent ie the quantity in which it isrequired in order to maximize their total revenueThe graphs and the tables formed ie the statshelp them to know the exact condition of themarket and its inclination so that they could comeout with offers and discounts in order to attractpublic towards their product maximizing theirsales The businessmen who is believed to bevery quick and accurate in decision making is allassisted by statistics at every point fromanalysing their sales profit margins wages of theemployees the improvements required in theproduct the billing counters are all carriedforward with the help of statistical tools Thefinancial resources required for investing in thebusiness are also arranged according to theassistance given by the data analysts Themarketing and advertisement of the products alsoneeds statistics Now you would be thinking how

amp its regular maintenance is all handled bystatistical applications In order to calculate theaverage mean median loss profit and all theother commerce related terms in businessesdealing with large amount of data is all handledby statisticians Statistics also helps inmaintaining employee performancemanagement A manager collects data aboutemployee productivity such as the number oftasks completed or the number of unitsproduced He or she must analyse data to findways in which an employee should improve toachieve maximum productivity Manycompanies also collect data about employeeengagement and happiness on the job whichcan be tracked to not only keep workersmotivated but ensure they dont leave for otherpositions elsewhere This helps in increasingthe efficiency of the employees and also createsa healthy working environment I have listed lotof points to prove the importance of statistics inbusinesses and hope that you will now agree towhat I mentioned in the beginning of the article

Whenever a method of marketing is thought thepercentage of people to get influenced the agegroup to target the kind of offers to be laid downare all done through statistics You might haveheard that now data is the new oil that means lifeis all surrounded with data and for the data andthe demand for its upkeep and analysis the dataanalysts are required and in big organizationswho actually target all age groups and sell allkinds of products on a large scale have a largedatabase not only of the customers but also oftheir n number of employees So an organizationis incomplete without data and where there isdata there is statistics In fact I would say thatan organization isnrsquot an organization if they donot have data and its proper upkeep in such acase the company will surely drain out so thisactually proves how important statistics hasbecome in the business point of view Thebanking sector canrsquot function without statisticsand this banking business forms the backbone ofthe country since all the customers of the bankhave loads of data for a particular bank account

Statistics is the science of learning from dataStatistical knowledge helps an individual to usethe proper methods for collecting data employthe correct analysis and present the resultseffectively Statistical analysis is thus used inalmost all fields to make sense out of the vastamount of data that is available Thus statisticalmethodologies are not only useful in drawingimportant results but also play a significant role inproducing new findings and understanding thework of others One such field which has wideuse of the statistical techniques andmethodologies is the Insurance Sector Insuranceis basically the business of risk as it involves thetransfer of risk from one party to another

The main incoming and outgoing source ofincome in the business of insurance is throughpremiums and claims respectively Manystatistical models are used to model claimsand losses Parameters for these distributionsare estimated using Method of momentMaximum likelihood estimates etc and thenGoodness of fit testis applied to check howwell our distribution fits to the data Timeseries model plays an important role inforecasting future values Statistics is used toanswer the most important questions for theinsurance industry What percentage ofpolicies are expected to payout How muchmoney the company must expect to payout inclaims Different methods of data collectioneither in primary or secondary form are usedto determine the required reserves premiumand future predictions Apart from this manystatistical methods for eg Linear modelmethod which uses regression as the maintool in determining the factors affectingpremiums Loss distribution method in whichhistogram and bar graphs are made tocompare different categories and complexstatistical tools such as Ruin Theory and Run-off triangles are used to develop newproducts absorb and evaluate risk and ruinwhen balancing claims reserves andpremiums Thus statistics plays anirreplaceable role in the life cycle ofinsurance business for both life and non-life insurance

Statistics help in

Measuring the stability of drugs-II) Production of drugs according to demandsIII) Effectiveness of drugsIV) Quality control of drugs V) Marketing of drugs VI) Testing the side effects of the drug with thehelp of data VII) Going through the procedure of approvaland public distribution of drugs

Statistics in developing a drug

A lot of statistics tools are used duringproduction clinical trials and marketing andpublic distribution of drugs-1 Average (mean median and mode) Usedduring experiments like stability testingcombination of chemicals and checking acidity orbasicity of solutions to calculate mean averageresults2 Standard deviation and variance It is ameasure of testing precision Can be used toevaluate precision at various points in a processor to evaluate the precision between two differentmethods of the experiment3 Q test for rejecting data It is used to checkoutliers in data ie to check unusual deviation ina data set to see if it can be statistically rejected

4 Confidence limits It helps in finding theprobability of the true value being within acalculable range It makes use of multiplyingstandard deviation with studentrsquos t-factor thatdetermines the confidence interval of theobservation at the stated confidence level5 t F Chi-square and other tests Helps incomparing the results of two data sets For egside effects of different medication in the samepopulation6 Correlation Helps to detect the relationbetween two attributes of a data for eg howthe effect of a medicine increases or decreasesdue to the change in dosage how increase ordecrease in temperature affects the stability ofcertain medication

Clinical Trials

Clinical trials are research studies that evaluatenew ways to improve treatments and quality oflife for people with disease and in presentscenario global pandemic COVID-19 Resultsfrom Clinical trials help develop

1 New drugsvaccines 2 New diagnostic tools 3 New clinical procedures

Participants volunteer for clinical trials

(28)

In this method of stratified random sampling isused to divide the volunteers into different stratabased on shared attributes or characteristicssuch as gender medical conditions and otherspecifics These stratarsquos are used in differentphases of clinical trials

Clinical trials have 4 phases

Before trial begins volunteers need tounderstand the potential benefits and potentialrisks before participating in clinical trials thatrsquoswhy pre-clinical phase is conducted to test thenew treatment on animals and healthyvolunteers This part comes under descriptivestatistics where we are using the observed(benefits and risks) for further research Phase 1- In this new treatment is tested for thefirst time to know how treatment affects thebody to determine a safe dose range forvaccine and their side effects It involvesrelatively 20-80 volunteers Stats approach-Association analysis is performed to capture thecorrelations between drug therapeuticindications and side-effects In order to achievethis goal we adopted Fishers exact test whichis a widely used approach for measuring thesignificance of the association between twonominal variables For example to test thesignificance of the association between drugtherapeutic indications A and drug side effect B

Phase 2- The study involves how well a newtreatment or combination of treatment goes wellwith certain types of patients It involves up to300 patient volunteers For example out oftotal cancer patients half of the patients areselected randomly and are given cancertreatment along with new vaccine and other halfare given cancer treatment along with standardtreatment of corona virus Now side effects inboth the cases are noted Aim is to determinewhich combination of treatment will have lessside effects Chi- square test is used tocompare the side effects in both the cases Phase 3- In this phase effectiveness of addinga new treatment to the standard treatment isstudied 100-1000 volunteers participate in thisphase Stats approach- Participants arerandomly split into two groups 1st group(treatment group) receives the standardtreatment + new vaccine and 2nd group (controlgroup) receives standard treatment + placebo(a treatment that looks identical to the newtreatment but contains no active ingredient) Inthis phase mean time taken to develop antibodies in both the groups are compared usingZ-test (Test of significance for difference inmeans)

Phase 4- In this phase no volunteers areinvolved researchersrsquo monitor drug safety andeffectiveness It involves optimal usage

We all live in the digital era of hightechnologies smart devices and mobilesolutions Data is an essential aspect of anybusiness Itrsquos crucial to gather process andanalyse the data flow and to do that as quicklyand accurately as possible Nowadays the datavolume can be large which makes informationhandling time-consuming and expensive Dueto this precise reason the data science industryis growing at a rapid pace creating newpossibilities as well as opportunities and pythonis one of the solutions to understand andanalyse such big data sets It is a cross-functional language that has lots of advantagesto offer This object-oriented programminglanguage is commonly used to streamline largecomplex data sets Not only this it has a highreadability that helps data analysts to save timeby typing fewer lines of code for accomplishingthe tasks Therefore itrsquos not surprising at allthat it is claimed to be the preferredprogramming language for data science

Let me tell you why Python is a number oneoption for data analysis-

By Tanisha Gupta ( 3rd Year )

gtgt Easy to LearnBeing involved in development for web servicesmobile apps as well as coding Yes it is one ofthe most famous language characteristics Morethan that a low and thus fast learning curve isthe next pre-eminence of Python whencomparing it with older languages on offer

gtgt Well-SupportedHaving the experience of using some tools forfree you probably know that it is a challenge toget decent support but thatrsquos not the case withPython Despite the high simplicity there can besituations when you still need help with PythonBeing in widespread use like in industries oracademic areas Python has a broad array ofhelpful libraries with tons of helpful and supportmaterials The great benefit is that all thelibraries are available at no cost

gtgt ScalabilityThis Pythonrsquos feature is closely connected withthe previous option Comparing with otherlanguages like R Java python is much fasterand more scalable Therefore it is good invarious fields that can solve a wide range ofproblems Thatrsquos why many companies havemigrated to Python

(34)

gtgt Huge Libraries CollectionAs I have already mentioned Python is one ofthe most supported languages nowadays Ithas a long list of totally free libraries availablefor all the users Thatrsquos a key factor that givesa strong push for Python If yoursquore involved inthe field more likely you are acquainted withsuch names as Pandas SciPy Stats ModelsMatplotlib etc libraries that are intensivelyutilized in the data science community Hereyou can easily find a solution needed forhassle-free work without additional expenses

gtgt Graphics and Visualization ToolsItrsquos a well-known fact that visual information ismuch easier to understand operate andremember So here is some good news foryou There is a pack of diverse visualizationoptions available that makes python a must-have tool not only for data analysis but for alldata science You can make the data moreaccessible and easier to use by means ofcreating various charts and graphics as wellas interactive plots Always remember that thesuccess of your business directly depends onthe ability to extract knowledge and insightsfrom data to make effective strategicdecisions stay competitive and makeprogress and Python is the internationallyclaimed programming language to help us inhandling our data in a better manner for avariety of causes

A registered clinical psychologist in Honk Kongnamed Zanonia Chiu said - ldquoGoing to school hadbeen a struggle for some children (withdepression) prior to the pandemic but at leastthey had school routines to stick with Now thatschools are closed some lock themselves upinside their rooms for weeks refusing to takeshowers eat or leave their beds For somechildren with depression there will beconsiderable difficulties adjusting back to normallife when college resumesrdquo and according to anonline survey conducted with the study periodfrom April 2020 to May 2020 - Total 531372 and 243 had symptoms of depressionanxiety and stress respectively with varyingseverities (N=727)The conclusion of the surveyindicated that COVID-19 is building psychologicaldistress among vulnerable college students asthey are forced to stay home along withworsening financial situations lifestyle changesfamily situations and time spent on variousactivities

Sounds so interesting and happening right Itis true indeed but along with stressful timeaside Along with the perks of enjoyingfreedom more than ever there comesacademic pressure tasks of separation fromfamilies career building futureresponsibilities etc Boarding on with thecollege life is a stressful time for manystudents thereby affecting their mental healthMental health problems are very commonamong college students and have been anincreasing concern However the COVID-19pandemic situation has brought this vulnerablepopulation into renewed focus Following thepandemic schools colleges offices andalmost every place that involved humaninteraction was shut It is important to note thatcollegeschool or even a normal routine areimportant coping mechanisms for youngpeople with mental health issues and wheneverything is shut down they lose an anchor inlife and their symptoms could relapse

Mental health among students is a big concernhowever ldquoUNTREATEDrdquo mental illnesses are amuch bigger and exponentially growingconcern Reaching out is an important step formental health issues to be addressed andtreated but reach out to who This is the pointwhere our institution should take over Collegesplay a big role in this stage Colleges doaddress this issue through means of orientationsessions and workshops but there is still a needto address mental health more directly Themethods to address mental health issuesshould be accessible feasible and affordablefor the students For example at NorthwesternUniversity student feedback led orientationenabled organizers to shift their focus fromexpert speakers to student testimonials Meansto address the issue vary from traditionalpresentations and panel discussions to roleplays small group discussions etc Herestudents learn how to recognize mental illnesssymptoms where to find resources andsupport and how to talk to friends who mightbe struggling

The findings of this study highlighted theurgent need to develop interventions andpreventive strategies to address the mentalhealth of college students Another InterviewSurvey study conducted by the Journal ofMedical Internet Research highlighted that of195 students 138 (71) indicated increasedstress and anxiety due to the COVID-19outbreak Multiple stressors were identified thatcontributed to the increased levels of stressanxiety and depressive thoughts amongstudents These included fear and worry abouttheir own health and of their loved ones(177195 91 reported negative impacts ofthe pandemic) difficulty in concentrating(173195 89) disruptions to sleepingpatterns (168195 86) decreased socialinteractions due to physical distancing(167195 86) and increased concerns onacademic performance (159195 82) Tocope with stress and anxiety participants havesought support from others and helpedthemselves by adopting either negative orpositive coping mechanisms It is important toknow that creating awareness about any issueis never enough action is what is neededTaking leave from workschool because of a fluor a fracture is acceptable and might even helpin the process of cure and healing howevertaking time off because of stress from a mentalillness such as anxiety or depressionunfortunately is not

lsquoOnline classrsquo is a term which most of us werenrsquotfamiliar with Before this pandemic we neverthought of getting education at home Covid hasaffected all of our lives In past pursuingeducation meant going to the schoolcollege Butnow the whole scenario has changed Childrenare studying and attending classes from homeJust like there are two sides of a coin onlineclasses also have some advantages anddisadvantages

Starting from the advantages it saves time forboth students and teachers as they donrsquot haveto travel All they have to do is to join throughtheir mobiles or laptops Secondly studentsdonrsquot have to necessarily buy books from theshops like they had to do in offline classesbecause they are given pdfs from which they canstudy Therefore it saves money Third it can beattended from anywhere in the world Unlike inthe offline classes where we had to gather at aparticular place Fourth computer basedpractical can be easily understood as studentscan share their screen with teachers Also it iseasy for teachers to explain a topic with the helpof pictures or animations which can be easilyfound on the internet

Last but not the least Parents can keep an eyeon their children whether they are studyingproperly or not

Apart from advantages it has somedisadvantages too First sitting beside thecomputer or mobile for hours affects the eyesightof both students and teachers Doctors arereporting many cases of eyestrain amongchildren since the online classes have startedSecondly students are becoming lazy as theydonrsquot have to go out of their home Like theproverb lsquoAll work and no play makes Jack a dullboyrsquo is really happening Third students canbunk in the online classes easily As they haveno fear of punishment they learned to disobeyand disrespect teachers Fourth students havebeen given lots of assignments as a result ofwhich most students are copying othersassignments and are not learning anything newFifth it is very difficult to communicate asteachers cannot give attention to each studentLastly it can be concluded that no matter howthe classes are being held a student must bededicated and sincere towards their studiesAfter all onersquos future depends on what they do intheir present

An actuary is a business executive professionally trained in the mathematical sciences Actuariesspecialize in the evaluation of financial riskmdashmost often in the context of life health and casualtyinsurance where they design analyse and refine varied programs to meet the insurance needs ofsociety A growing number of actuaries work in the areas of assetliability management and risk managementSome of these actuaries are employed by investment and consulting firms others are employed byinsurance companies

Actuaries have been called financial architects and social mathematicians because their combinedanalytical and business skills help solve a growing variety of financial and social problems Theactuarial profession is a demanding yet rewarding career choice

In a world bombarded with numerical information informed decisions rely on the ability to separatefact from fiction by applying valid statistical analyses and visualizations Statisticians can providecrucial guidance in determining what information is reliable and which predictions may be trustedThey often help search for clues to the solution of a scientific mystery and sometimes keepinvestigators from being misled by false impressions

Thousands of statisticians work in medicine law agriculture public policy marketing manufacturingengineering and other fields in the social and natural sciences The diversity of applications is anexciting aspect of the field and is one more reason why the demand for well-trained statisticianscontinues to be strong

Poetry

Contributed by Dr Komal Goel

(41)

Contributed by Dr Meenu Goel

The curtain lifts on Bryant Elementary Schools Spring Recorder Recital Ninety third-graders fumble with their instruments take a breath

and blow Their parents braced breathe too

as Hot Crossed Buns emerges a little scattershot -- the Normal Distribution brought to life

By Go Tell Aunt Rhodie the audience

is moved by their sheer pretty-goodness though one kid knocks her music to the floor

and another squeaks to demonstrate

the tail two standard deviations below the mean The curve implies

that somewhere on stage another kid

just played a note so sweet he might shatter Mrs Wedermeyers glasses And if

there are a mother and father who think

that child is theirs may they be forgiven even if the child shining in their eyes

is moving his fingers slightly out of rhythm

even if hes never led the bell curve in his life In consecutive measures of almost unison

its easy to believe these children are musicians

Their parents do so stirred by Ode to Joy they rise to their feet with the final phrase

clapping from the darkened auditorium

at once as one heroically like the parents theyve meant to be

EK NAYA SAFAR

Mubarak ho apko zindgi ka naya safar

Naya hai sheher nai hai dagar

Chut gaye kuch rishte purane

But donrsquot worry yaar mil jayenge naye diwane

Kuch tum jaise khuch tum se alag

So just smile and start a new life

Dosti yaari ko zara side mai rakh ke

Edhar gaur famiye janab

Course toh tumne acha chuna hai

Kuch socha hai ya ese hi liya hai

College mai admission jab hota hai

Toh andar khushi ke fuvare futne lagte hai

Lekin syllabus o dekh kar yeh bhi dagmagane lagte hai

Mana CP paas hai vahi maat ghumte rehna

Varna paper mai cafeacute ki menu sheet hi likhte rehna

Donrsquot take a chill pill coz yaha ki teachers hai thori strict

Just because they want you to be the best

Ab kya kare college ka har din mamuli nahi hota

Aur 9 se 4 sirf parai nahi hoti

Gumo firo esh karo but parna na bhulo

Mana es saal kuch zyada hi speed breakers hai

But the best part is hum sab bhi toh sath hai

PONDERINGAll of humanity is but a set of numbers You and I

are nothing more than a statisticJust think about any decision you had to take

recently No matter your choice you might findyourself ending up only as an infinitesimal

decimal in the final percentage of a statisticianrsquosdiscourse Let me give you an example pertinent

to the world we live in today Say yoursquore arepublican and have to decide whether to wear a

mask or not Naturally your political instinctmight warn you against it However you might

still be inclined to wear one because yoursquoregenuinely scared about what the ldquoliberalsrdquo have

to say about the SARS-COV-2 Now now letrsquos notgo off-topic here I know you might be wondering

what yoursquod do if you were in a Republicanrsquos shoesBut thatrsquos not the point

In the end it seldom matters whether you are arepublican or a liberal especially in situations

like these What matters in the end is if you didgo out without wearing that infuriating

smothering mask And if you contracted thewretched virus because of it If yes hard luck

Yoursquore nothing more than one of the 841 millionpeople who have it Thatrsquos all that people aroundthe world will see Not your gender not your ageand certainly not your political belief Of course

there will be studies about the correlation ofthese factors with the incidence rate of the

infections but thatrsquos another story altogether andnot one possibly as broad as the one we talk

aboutMoreover the correlation must not be

confused with causation Now perhaps thatrsquosa story for another day But think about it thisway whether you go to college or drop out of

high school whether you choose to live ordecide to die no matter the decision no

matter your inclination or choice whetheryou like it or not you will be nothing more

than a statisticIt might sound a bit gloomy to be honestWhen I first thought about it I felt almostinsignificant Like a tiny speck of dust in a

galaxy of stars Alas isnrsquot that all that we arethough

A pale blue dot in an ocean of stars Ourplanet one among millions or perhaps

billions of others All 78 billion of us fightingfor a place in the world knowing full well we

canrsquot all possibly have it It might makeanyone feel overwhelmed but therersquos

something about that that is so challenging itis almost inspiring We all know statistics andwe all know life But the true beauty of life lies

in the ability to defy statistics Only onequestion remains are you up for the

challenge

It wonrsquot be any exaggeration If itrsquos said that tools of statistician are used in almost all fields ofcalculation

Be it research finance sports marketing sales health care or population countingIt is a crucial process behind How we make discoveries in science

Making decisions or claiming predictions It plays a crucial play in all situationsStats is involved everywhere from collection to interpretation From explanation to

presentationStatistics helps avoiding a wide variety of analytical traps By making sure that study follow

apt methods in all aspectsChallenging your own assumptions Or drawing data-based conclusions

Statistics is always there Making things crisp and clear

It always seems impossible until it is done

If it makes you happyit doesnt have to make sense to others

When you cant find the sunshinebe the sunshine

Either you run the day or let the day run you

When you focus on the goodthe good gets better

It takes the same energy to worry as it doesto be positive so use your energy to thinkpositive and positive things will happen

The one thing that doesnt abide by majority rule is a persons conscience

Make happiness a priority and be gentle with yourself in the process

College the best start to unfold lifes beauty

Goodbye to the mistakes weve made remember the laughs weve shared

Will never forget these years

People are capable at anytime in their lives of doing what they dream of

Believe in Yourself

Be who you are and say what you feelbecause those who mind donrsquot matter and

those who matter donrsquot mind

Success is liking yourself liking what you do and liking how you do it

Happiness is a by-product of an effort to make someone else happy

If you are not willing to risk the unusual you will have to settle for the ordinary

Always keep it clean simple and precise

Hustle until you no longer have to introduce yourself

Dream it Wish it Do it

It is used to test whether the differencebetween two populations is real or by chanceoccurrence to study the correlation betweenattributes in the same population and toevaluate the achievements of public healthprograms Biostatistics has applications in allthe branches of life sciences such as formapping chromosomes for studying thebehavior of genes in a population and forconduction of drug treatment trails etcBiostatistics deals with data arising frombiomedical research It remains a very activeresearch area with complicated time-to-eventdata and missing data emerging in applicationareas including medicine geneticsneuroscience and engineering Recentadvances in biomedical research have creatednew challenges and opportunities forstatisticians and data scientists For examplebig data analysis precision medicine artificialintelligence causal inference and other newresearch fields have inspired data scientists todevelop modern statistical methods andinnovative inference procedures

As technology progresses the physicianencounters more and more quantitative ratherthan descriptive information In one sensestatistics is the language of assembling andhandling quantitative material Even if onersquosconcern is only with the results of other peoplersquosmanipulation and assemblage of data it isimportant to achieve some understanding of thislanguage in order to interpret their resultsproperly Statistics pervades the medicalliterature As a consequence of the increasinglyquantitative nature of public health and medicineand its reliance on statistical methodology themedical literature is replete with reports in whichstatistical techniques are used extensivelyBiostatistics is used to determine how diseasesdevelop progress and spread

For example biostatisticians use statistics topredict the behavior of an illness like flu It is usedto help predict the mortality rate the symptomsand even the time of year people might get it

Over 50 years ago there was a subject whichwas unnoticed and mainly focused on the studyand analysis of data Statisticians urgedacademic statistics to transcend its boundariesbeyond the realm of theoretical statistics Morestress was laid on data presentation Datascience is a discipline which is guided bycomputing informatics operation researchmathematics and statistics

Statistics is treated as the most important tool insorting and analysing data It is beneficial ingiving a deeper vision of the data Statisticswidely depends upon experiments and surveysWith the help of descriptive statisticscalculations like mean median etc can bedone on the data On the other hand inferentialstatistics helps in drawing inferences andconclusions from the population Both domainsof statistics play a very important role in DataScience In order to get a structured data andmaking predictions statistical methods and toolsare very essential They are able to carry outmany analytical tasks

Statistical Analysis is the study of surveying agiven set of data and observing patterns andtrends It is used in research fields to createstatistical models for performing certainexperiments on a population

The focus is to gather information from thesmallest quantity of data The experimentsinvolve accurate calculations and therefore giverespective results Statistics forms the base ofData Science It requires optimization of hugedatabases which is achieved with the help ofdifferent statistical tools In todayrsquos data drivenworld Data Science is turning out to be one ofthe most demanded professions Almost all firmsand companies are in search of data scientistsas the data keeps on piling up and the need ofinterpreting analysing and cleaning it is risingThe ultimate aim of Statistics and Data Scienceis to extricate cognizance from large amounts ofdata

Whenever the word lsquobusinessrsquo is heard lsquosalesrsquo isthe word which comes to our mind next and whatexactly assists sales is STATISTICS Donrsquotbelieve me but I am sure after reading the articleyou would all agree to my point too So what doesa businessman do He manufactures and sellsthe goods produced to the public but both ofthese basic functions of the businessman cannotbe transcended without the help of statistics toolssuch as survey statistics driven softwares tocollect and analyse the demand of the customerand to what extent ie the quantity in which it isrequired in order to maximize their total revenueThe graphs and the tables formed ie the statshelp them to know the exact condition of themarket and its inclination so that they could comeout with offers and discounts in order to attractpublic towards their product maximizing theirsales The businessmen who is believed to bevery quick and accurate in decision making is allassisted by statistics at every point fromanalysing their sales profit margins wages of theemployees the improvements required in theproduct the billing counters are all carriedforward with the help of statistical tools Thefinancial resources required for investing in thebusiness are also arranged according to theassistance given by the data analysts Themarketing and advertisement of the products alsoneeds statistics Now you would be thinking how

amp its regular maintenance is all handled bystatistical applications In order to calculate theaverage mean median loss profit and all theother commerce related terms in businessesdealing with large amount of data is all handledby statisticians Statistics also helps inmaintaining employee performancemanagement A manager collects data aboutemployee productivity such as the number oftasks completed or the number of unitsproduced He or she must analyse data to findways in which an employee should improve toachieve maximum productivity Manycompanies also collect data about employeeengagement and happiness on the job whichcan be tracked to not only keep workersmotivated but ensure they dont leave for otherpositions elsewhere This helps in increasingthe efficiency of the employees and also createsa healthy working environment I have listed lotof points to prove the importance of statistics inbusinesses and hope that you will now agree towhat I mentioned in the beginning of the article

Whenever a method of marketing is thought thepercentage of people to get influenced the agegroup to target the kind of offers to be laid downare all done through statistics You might haveheard that now data is the new oil that means lifeis all surrounded with data and for the data andthe demand for its upkeep and analysis the dataanalysts are required and in big organizationswho actually target all age groups and sell allkinds of products on a large scale have a largedatabase not only of the customers but also oftheir n number of employees So an organizationis incomplete without data and where there isdata there is statistics In fact I would say thatan organization isnrsquot an organization if they donot have data and its proper upkeep in such acase the company will surely drain out so thisactually proves how important statistics hasbecome in the business point of view Thebanking sector canrsquot function without statisticsand this banking business forms the backbone ofthe country since all the customers of the bankhave loads of data for a particular bank account

Statistics is the science of learning from dataStatistical knowledge helps an individual to usethe proper methods for collecting data employthe correct analysis and present the resultseffectively Statistical analysis is thus used inalmost all fields to make sense out of the vastamount of data that is available Thus statisticalmethodologies are not only useful in drawingimportant results but also play a significant role inproducing new findings and understanding thework of others One such field which has wideuse of the statistical techniques andmethodologies is the Insurance Sector Insuranceis basically the business of risk as it involves thetransfer of risk from one party to another

The main incoming and outgoing source ofincome in the business of insurance is throughpremiums and claims respectively Manystatistical models are used to model claimsand losses Parameters for these distributionsare estimated using Method of momentMaximum likelihood estimates etc and thenGoodness of fit testis applied to check howwell our distribution fits to the data Timeseries model plays an important role inforecasting future values Statistics is used toanswer the most important questions for theinsurance industry What percentage ofpolicies are expected to payout How muchmoney the company must expect to payout inclaims Different methods of data collectioneither in primary or secondary form are usedto determine the required reserves premiumand future predictions Apart from this manystatistical methods for eg Linear modelmethod which uses regression as the maintool in determining the factors affectingpremiums Loss distribution method in whichhistogram and bar graphs are made tocompare different categories and complexstatistical tools such as Ruin Theory and Run-off triangles are used to develop newproducts absorb and evaluate risk and ruinwhen balancing claims reserves andpremiums Thus statistics plays anirreplaceable role in the life cycle ofinsurance business for both life and non-life insurance

Statistics help in

Measuring the stability of drugs-II) Production of drugs according to demandsIII) Effectiveness of drugsIV) Quality control of drugs V) Marketing of drugs VI) Testing the side effects of the drug with thehelp of data VII) Going through the procedure of approvaland public distribution of drugs

Statistics in developing a drug

A lot of statistics tools are used duringproduction clinical trials and marketing andpublic distribution of drugs-1 Average (mean median and mode) Usedduring experiments like stability testingcombination of chemicals and checking acidity orbasicity of solutions to calculate mean averageresults2 Standard deviation and variance It is ameasure of testing precision Can be used toevaluate precision at various points in a processor to evaluate the precision between two differentmethods of the experiment3 Q test for rejecting data It is used to checkoutliers in data ie to check unusual deviation ina data set to see if it can be statistically rejected

4 Confidence limits It helps in finding theprobability of the true value being within acalculable range It makes use of multiplyingstandard deviation with studentrsquos t-factor thatdetermines the confidence interval of theobservation at the stated confidence level5 t F Chi-square and other tests Helps incomparing the results of two data sets For egside effects of different medication in the samepopulation6 Correlation Helps to detect the relationbetween two attributes of a data for eg howthe effect of a medicine increases or decreasesdue to the change in dosage how increase ordecrease in temperature affects the stability ofcertain medication

Clinical Trials

Clinical trials are research studies that evaluatenew ways to improve treatments and quality oflife for people with disease and in presentscenario global pandemic COVID-19 Resultsfrom Clinical trials help develop

1 New drugsvaccines 2 New diagnostic tools 3 New clinical procedures

Participants volunteer for clinical trials

(28)

In this method of stratified random sampling isused to divide the volunteers into different stratabased on shared attributes or characteristicssuch as gender medical conditions and otherspecifics These stratarsquos are used in differentphases of clinical trials

Clinical trials have 4 phases

Before trial begins volunteers need tounderstand the potential benefits and potentialrisks before participating in clinical trials thatrsquoswhy pre-clinical phase is conducted to test thenew treatment on animals and healthyvolunteers This part comes under descriptivestatistics where we are using the observed(benefits and risks) for further research Phase 1- In this new treatment is tested for thefirst time to know how treatment affects thebody to determine a safe dose range forvaccine and their side effects It involvesrelatively 20-80 volunteers Stats approach-Association analysis is performed to capture thecorrelations between drug therapeuticindications and side-effects In order to achievethis goal we adopted Fishers exact test whichis a widely used approach for measuring thesignificance of the association between twonominal variables For example to test thesignificance of the association between drugtherapeutic indications A and drug side effect B

Phase 2- The study involves how well a newtreatment or combination of treatment goes wellwith certain types of patients It involves up to300 patient volunteers For example out oftotal cancer patients half of the patients areselected randomly and are given cancertreatment along with new vaccine and other halfare given cancer treatment along with standardtreatment of corona virus Now side effects inboth the cases are noted Aim is to determinewhich combination of treatment will have lessside effects Chi- square test is used tocompare the side effects in both the cases Phase 3- In this phase effectiveness of addinga new treatment to the standard treatment isstudied 100-1000 volunteers participate in thisphase Stats approach- Participants arerandomly split into two groups 1st group(treatment group) receives the standardtreatment + new vaccine and 2nd group (controlgroup) receives standard treatment + placebo(a treatment that looks identical to the newtreatment but contains no active ingredient) Inthis phase mean time taken to develop antibodies in both the groups are compared usingZ-test (Test of significance for difference inmeans)

Phase 4- In this phase no volunteers areinvolved researchersrsquo monitor drug safety andeffectiveness It involves optimal usage

Starting from the advantages it saves time forboth students and teachers as they donrsquot haveto travel All they have to do is to join throughtheir mobiles or laptops Secondly studentsdonrsquot have to necessarily buy books from theshops like they had to do in offline classesbecause they are given pdfs from which they canstudy Therefore it saves money Third it can beattended from anywhere in the world Unlike inthe offline classes where we had to gather at aparticular place Fourth computer basedpractical can be easily understood as studentscan share their screen with teachers Also it iseasy for teachers to explain a topic with the helpof pictures or animations which can be easilyfound on the internet

Last but not the least Parents can keep an eyeon their children whether they are studyingproperly or not

Apart from advantages it has somedisadvantages too First sitting beside thecomputer or mobile for hours affects the eyesightof both students and teachers Doctors arereporting many cases of eyestrain amongchildren since the online classes have startedSecondly students are becoming lazy as theydonrsquot have to go out of their home Like theproverb lsquoAll work and no play makes Jack a dullboyrsquo is really happening Third students canbunk in the online classes easily As they haveno fear of punishment they learned to disobeyand disrespect teachers Fourth students havebeen given lots of assignments as a result ofwhich most students are copying othersassignments and are not learning anything newFifth it is very difficult to communicate asteachers cannot give attention to each studentLastly it can be concluded that no matter howthe classes are being held a student must bededicated and sincere towards their studiesAfter all onersquos future depends on what they do intheir present

An actuary is a business executive professionally trained in the mathematical sciences Actuariesspecialize in the evaluation of financial riskmdashmost often in the context of life health and casualtyinsurance where they design analyse and refine varied programs to meet the insurance needs ofsociety A growing number of actuaries work in the areas of assetliability management and risk managementSome of these actuaries are employed by investment and consulting firms others are employed byinsurance companies

Actuaries have been called financial architects and social mathematicians because their combinedanalytical and business skills help solve a growing variety of financial and social problems Theactuarial profession is a demanding yet rewarding career choice

In a world bombarded with numerical information informed decisions rely on the ability to separatefact from fiction by applying valid statistical analyses and visualizations Statisticians can providecrucial guidance in determining what information is reliable and which predictions may be trustedThey often help search for clues to the solution of a scientific mystery and sometimes keepinvestigators from being misled by false impressions

Thousands of statisticians work in medicine law agriculture public policy marketing manufacturingengineering and other fields in the social and natural sciences The diversity of applications is anexciting aspect of the field and is one more reason why the demand for well-trained statisticianscontinues to be strong

Touching Your HeartWith Some

Poetry

Contributed by Dr Komal Goel

by Anubis the Philosomancer

(41)

Contributed by Dr Meenu Goel

The curtain lifts on Bryant Elementary Schools Spring Recorder Recital Ninety third-graders fumble with their instruments take a breath

and blow Their parents braced breathe too

as Hot Crossed Buns emerges a little scattershot -- the Normal Distribution brought to life

By Go Tell Aunt Rhodie the audience

is moved by their sheer pretty-goodness though one kid knocks her music to the floor

and another squeaks to demonstrate

the tail two standard deviations below the mean The curve implies

that somewhere on stage another kid

just played a note so sweet he might shatter Mrs Wedermeyers glasses And if

there are a mother and father who think

that child is theirs may they be forgiven even if the child shining in their eyes

is moving his fingers slightly out of rhythm

even if hes never led the bell curve in his life In consecutive measures of almost unison

its easy to believe these children are musicians

Their parents do so stirred by Ode to Joy they rise to their feet with the final phrase

clapping from the darkened auditorium

at once as one heroically like the parents theyve meant to be

EK NAYA SAFAR

Mubarak ho apko zindgi ka naya safar

Naya hai sheher nai hai dagar

Chut gaye kuch rishte purane

But donrsquot worry yaar mil jayenge naye diwane

Kuch tum jaise khuch tum se alag

So just smile and start a new life

Dosti yaari ko zara side mai rakh ke

Edhar gaur famiye janab

Course toh tumne acha chuna hai

Kuch socha hai ya ese hi liya hai

College mai admission jab hota hai

Toh andar khushi ke fuvare futne lagte hai

Lekin syllabus o dekh kar yeh bhi dagmagane lagte hai

Mana CP paas hai vahi maat ghumte rehna

Varna paper mai cafeacute ki menu sheet hi likhte rehna

Donrsquot take a chill pill coz yaha ki teachers hai thori strict

Just because they want you to be the best

Ab kya kare college ka har din mamuli nahi hota

Aur 9 se 4 sirf parai nahi hoti

Gumo firo esh karo but parna na bhulo

Mana es saal kuch zyada hi speed breakers hai

But the best part is hum sab bhi toh sath hai

PONDERINGAll of humanity is but a set of numbers You and I

are nothing more than a statisticJust think about any decision you had to take

recently No matter your choice you might findyourself ending up only as an infinitesimal

decimal in the final percentage of a statisticianrsquosdiscourse Let me give you an example pertinent

to the world we live in today Say yoursquore arepublican and have to decide whether to wear a

mask or not Naturally your political instinctmight warn you against it However you might

still be inclined to wear one because yoursquoregenuinely scared about what the ldquoliberalsrdquo have

to say about the SARS-COV-2 Now now letrsquos notgo off-topic here I know you might be wondering

what yoursquod do if you were in a Republicanrsquos shoesBut thatrsquos not the point

In the end it seldom matters whether you are arepublican or a liberal especially in situations

like these What matters in the end is if you didgo out without wearing that infuriating

smothering mask And if you contracted thewretched virus because of it If yes hard luck

Yoursquore nothing more than one of the 841 millionpeople who have it Thatrsquos all that people aroundthe world will see Not your gender not your ageand certainly not your political belief Of course

there will be studies about the correlation ofthese factors with the incidence rate of the

infections but thatrsquos another story altogether andnot one possibly as broad as the one we talk

aboutMoreover the correlation must not be

confused with causation Now perhaps thatrsquosa story for another day But think about it thisway whether you go to college or drop out of

high school whether you choose to live ordecide to die no matter the decision no

matter your inclination or choice whetheryou like it or not you will be nothing more

than a statisticIt might sound a bit gloomy to be honestWhen I first thought about it I felt almostinsignificant Like a tiny speck of dust in a

galaxy of stars Alas isnrsquot that all that we arethough

A pale blue dot in an ocean of stars Ourplanet one among millions or perhaps

billions of others All 78 billion of us fightingfor a place in the world knowing full well we

canrsquot all possibly have it It might makeanyone feel overwhelmed but therersquos

something about that that is so challenging itis almost inspiring We all know statistics andwe all know life But the true beauty of life lies

in the ability to defy statistics Only onequestion remains are you up for the

challenge

It wonrsquot be any exaggeration If itrsquos said that tools of statistician are used in almost all fields ofcalculation

Be it research finance sports marketing sales health care or population countingIt is a crucial process behind How we make discoveries in science

Making decisions or claiming predictions It plays a crucial play in all situationsStats is involved everywhere from collection to interpretation From explanation to

presentationStatistics helps avoiding a wide variety of analytical traps By making sure that study follow

apt methods in all aspectsChallenging your own assumptions Or drawing data-based conclusions

Statistics is always there Making things crisp and clear

Donrsquot buy that lottery ticket Donrsquot wish for a fallen wicket

Donrsquot wish to ldquomake itrdquo in a dying world Donrsquot wish for either a boy or a girl

Donrsquot predict vivid sunshine or rain Donrsquot bother to cry or complain

Statistically speaking it may all be in vain If you didnrsquot make it the first time why try

again

And if you donrsquot buy wish try andpredict

Why also bother living the life you claim tohave lived

It always seems impossible until it is done

If it makes you happyit doesnt have to make sense to others

When you cant find the sunshinebe the sunshine

Either you run the day or let the day run you

When you focus on the goodthe good gets better

It takes the same energy to worry as it doesto be positive so use your energy to thinkpositive and positive things will happen

The one thing that doesnt abide by majority rule is a persons conscience

Make happiness a priority and be gentle with yourself in the process

College the best start to unfold lifes beauty

Goodbye to the mistakes weve made remember the laughs weve shared

Will never forget these years

If you dont believe in yourself thenno one is going to believe in you So

Believe in Yourself

Be who you are and say what you feelbecause those who mind donrsquot matter and

those who matter donrsquot mind

Success is liking yourself liking what you do and liking how you do it

Happiness is a by-product of an effort to make someone else happy

If you are not willing to risk the unusual you will have to settle for the ordinary

Always keep it clean simple and precise

Hustle until you no longer have to introduce yourself

Dream it Wish it Do it

There are no limits to what you can accomplish except the limits you place

on your own thinking

Excellence is not achieved - it is aspired to and trekked towards The tougher the trek

Sometimes the most beautiful things happen in the most unexpected waysI still canrsquot get over the fact that my 3 years-long and the beautiful journeycame to an end I never thought that I would make such beautiful bonds incollege be it with the teachers or my classmates Mata Sundri College will always have a special place in my heart and in mylife It is this place that made me realize my true potential I entered thecollege with almost no expectations But looking back at the time I nowfeel that those years were the most special and the most beautiful onesThe kind of love and support I received from all the teachers cannot bedescribed in words The personal connection which I still have with myteachers would be missing had I been in some other college I amextremely grateful to them It was because of them that I started loving mysubject Statistics All the hard work put in by my teachers and by myselfpaid off in the end Never did I imagine that I would become the Universitytopper I still feel that I am living in a dream

It is one of my greatest accomplishments Receiving the Medal from theHonrsquoble Education Minister Shri Ramesh Pokhriyal was a matter of pride Ifeel so happy seeing my parents and teachers being proud of me I surelyknow that whenever Irsquoll need some help in the future my teachers willalways be there to guide me The only regret is that we didnrsquot get a chance to greet the teachers and ourfellow classmates one last time due to the pandemic But keeping thataside I will always cherish my journey Thank you Mata Sundri College forthe amazing experience

Statistics is treated as the most important tool insorting and analysing data It is beneficial ingiving a deeper vision of the data Statisticswidely depends upon experiments and surveysWith the help of descriptive statisticscalculations like mean median etc can bedone on the data On the other hand inferentialstatistics helps in drawing inferences andconclusions from the population Both domainsof statistics play a very important role in DataScience In order to get a structured data andmaking predictions statistical methods and toolsare very essential They are able to carry outmany analytical tasks

Statistical Analysis is the study of surveying agiven set of data and observing patterns andtrends It is used in research fields to createstatistical models for performing certainexperiments on a population

The focus is to gather information from thesmallest quantity of data The experimentsinvolve accurate calculations and therefore giverespective results Statistics forms the base ofData Science It requires optimization of hugedatabases which is achieved with the help ofdifferent statistical tools In todayrsquos data drivenworld Data Science is turning out to be one ofthe most demanded professions Almost all firmsand companies are in search of data scientistsas the data keeps on piling up and the need ofinterpreting analysing and cleaning it is risingThe ultimate aim of Statistics and Data Scienceis to extricate cognizance from large amounts ofdata

Whenever the word lsquobusinessrsquo is heard lsquosalesrsquo isthe word which comes to our mind next and whatexactly assists sales is STATISTICS Donrsquotbelieve me but I am sure after reading the articleyou would all agree to my point too So what doesa businessman do He manufactures and sellsthe goods produced to the public but both ofthese basic functions of the businessman cannotbe transcended without the help of statistics toolssuch as survey statistics driven softwares tocollect and analyse the demand of the customerand to what extent ie the quantity in which it isrequired in order to maximize their total revenueThe graphs and the tables formed ie the statshelp them to know the exact condition of themarket and its inclination so that they could comeout with offers and discounts in order to attractpublic towards their product maximizing theirsales The businessmen who is believed to bevery quick and accurate in decision making is allassisted by statistics at every point fromanalysing their sales profit margins wages of theemployees the improvements required in theproduct the billing counters are all carriedforward with the help of statistical tools Thefinancial resources required for investing in thebusiness are also arranged according to theassistance given by the data analysts Themarketing and advertisement of the products alsoneeds statistics Now you would be thinking how

amp its regular maintenance is all handled bystatistical applications In order to calculate theaverage mean median loss profit and all theother commerce related terms in businessesdealing with large amount of data is all handledby statisticians Statistics also helps inmaintaining employee performancemanagement A manager collects data aboutemployee productivity such as the number oftasks completed or the number of unitsproduced He or she must analyse data to findways in which an employee should improve toachieve maximum productivity Manycompanies also collect data about employeeengagement and happiness on the job whichcan be tracked to not only keep workersmotivated but ensure they dont leave for otherpositions elsewhere This helps in increasingthe efficiency of the employees and also createsa healthy working environment I have listed lotof points to prove the importance of statistics inbusinesses and hope that you will now agree towhat I mentioned in the beginning of the article

Whenever a method of marketing is thought thepercentage of people to get influenced the agegroup to target the kind of offers to be laid downare all done through statistics You might haveheard that now data is the new oil that means lifeis all surrounded with data and for the data andthe demand for its upkeep and analysis the dataanalysts are required and in big organizationswho actually target all age groups and sell allkinds of products on a large scale have a largedatabase not only of the customers but also oftheir n number of employees So an organizationis incomplete without data and where there isdata there is statistics In fact I would say thatan organization isnrsquot an organization if they donot have data and its proper upkeep in such acase the company will surely drain out so thisactually proves how important statistics hasbecome in the business point of view Thebanking sector canrsquot function without statisticsand this banking business forms the backbone ofthe country since all the customers of the bankhave loads of data for a particular bank account

Statistics is the science of learning from dataStatistical knowledge helps an individual to usethe proper methods for collecting data employthe correct analysis and present the resultseffectively Statistical analysis is thus used inalmost all fields to make sense out of the vastamount of data that is available Thus statisticalmethodologies are not only useful in drawingimportant results but also play a significant role inproducing new findings and understanding thework of others One such field which has wideuse of the statistical techniques andmethodologies is the Insurance Sector Insuranceis basically the business of risk as it involves thetransfer of risk from one party to another

The main incoming and outgoing source ofincome in the business of insurance is throughpremiums and claims respectively Manystatistical models are used to model claimsand losses Parameters for these distributionsare estimated using Method of momentMaximum likelihood estimates etc and thenGoodness of fit testis applied to check howwell our distribution fits to the data Timeseries model plays an important role inforecasting future values Statistics is used toanswer the most important questions for theinsurance industry What percentage ofpolicies are expected to payout How muchmoney the company must expect to payout inclaims Different methods of data collectioneither in primary or secondary form are usedto determine the required reserves premiumand future predictions Apart from this manystatistical methods for eg Linear modelmethod which uses regression as the maintool in determining the factors affectingpremiums Loss distribution method in whichhistogram and bar graphs are made tocompare different categories and complexstatistical tools such as Ruin Theory and Run-off triangles are used to develop newproducts absorb and evaluate risk and ruinwhen balancing claims reserves andpremiums Thus statistics plays anirreplaceable role in the life cycle ofinsurance business for both life and non-life insurance

Statistics help in

Measuring the stability of drugs-II) Production of drugs according to demandsIII) Effectiveness of drugsIV) Quality control of drugs V) Marketing of drugs VI) Testing the side effects of the drug with thehelp of data VII) Going through the procedure of approvaland public distribution of drugs

Statistics in developing a drug

A lot of statistics tools are used duringproduction clinical trials and marketing andpublic distribution of drugs-1 Average (mean median and mode) Usedduring experiments like stability testingcombination of chemicals and checking acidity orbasicity of solutions to calculate mean averageresults2 Standard deviation and variance It is ameasure of testing precision Can be used toevaluate precision at various points in a processor to evaluate the precision between two differentmethods of the experiment3 Q test for rejecting data It is used to checkoutliers in data ie to check unusual deviation ina data set to see if it can be statistically rejected

4 Confidence limits It helps in finding theprobability of the true value being within acalculable range It makes use of multiplyingstandard deviation with studentrsquos t-factor thatdetermines the confidence interval of theobservation at the stated confidence level5 t F Chi-square and other tests Helps incomparing the results of two data sets For egside effects of different medication in the samepopulation6 Correlation Helps to detect the relationbetween two attributes of a data for eg howthe effect of a medicine increases or decreasesdue to the change in dosage how increase ordecrease in temperature affects the stability ofcertain medication

Clinical Trials

Clinical trials are research studies that evaluatenew ways to improve treatments and quality oflife for people with disease and in presentscenario global pandemic COVID-19 Resultsfrom Clinical trials help develop

1 New drugsvaccines 2 New diagnostic tools 3 New clinical procedures

Participants volunteer for clinical trials

(28)

In this method of stratified random sampling isused to divide the volunteers into different stratabased on shared attributes or characteristicssuch as gender medical conditions and otherspecifics These stratarsquos are used in differentphases of clinical trials

Clinical trials have 4 phases

Before trial begins volunteers need tounderstand the potential benefits and potentialrisks before participating in clinical trials thatrsquoswhy pre-clinical phase is conducted to test thenew treatment on animals and healthyvolunteers This part comes under descriptivestatistics where we are using the observed(benefits and risks) for further research Phase 1- In this new treatment is tested for thefirst time to know how treatment affects thebody to determine a safe dose range forvaccine and their side effects It involvesrelatively 20-80 volunteers Stats approach-Association analysis is performed to capture thecorrelations between drug therapeuticindications and side-effects In order to achievethis goal we adopted Fishers exact test whichis a widely used approach for measuring thesignificance of the association between twonominal variables For example to test thesignificance of the association between drugtherapeutic indications A and drug side effect B

Phase 2- The study involves how well a newtreatment or combination of treatment goes wellwith certain types of patients It involves up to300 patient volunteers For example out oftotal cancer patients half of the patients areselected randomly and are given cancertreatment along with new vaccine and other halfare given cancer treatment along with standardtreatment of corona virus Now side effects inboth the cases are noted Aim is to determinewhich combination of treatment will have lessside effects Chi- square test is used tocompare the side effects in both the cases Phase 3- In this phase effectiveness of addinga new treatment to the standard treatment isstudied 100-1000 volunteers participate in thisphase Stats approach- Participants arerandomly split into two groups 1st group(treatment group) receives the standardtreatment + new vaccine and 2nd group (controlgroup) receives standard treatment + placebo(a treatment that looks identical to the newtreatment but contains no active ingredient) Inthis phase mean time taken to develop antibodies in both the groups are compared usingZ-test (Test of significance for difference inmeans)

Phase 4- In this phase no volunteers areinvolved researchersrsquo monitor drug safety andeffectiveness It involves optimal usage

lsquoOnline classrsquo is a term which most of us werenrsquotfamiliar with Before this pandemic we neverthought of getting education at home Covid hasaffected all of our lives In past pursuingeducation meant going to the schoolcollege Butnow the whole scenario has changed Childrenare studying and attending classes from homeJust like there are two sides of a coin onlineclasses also have some advantages anddisadvantages

Starting from the advantages it saves time forboth students and teachers as they donrsquot haveto travel All they have to do is to join throughtheir mobiles or laptops Secondly studentsdonrsquot have to necessarily buy books from theshops like they had to do in offline classesbecause they are given pdfs from which they canstudy Therefore it saves money Third it can beattended from anywhere in the world Unlike inthe offline classes where we had to gather at aparticular place Fourth computer basedpractical can be easily understood as studentscan share their screen with teachers Also it iseasy for teachers to explain a topic with the helpof pictures or animations which can be easilyfound on the internet

Last but not the least Parents can keep an eyeon their children whether they are studyingproperly or not

Apart from advantages it has somedisadvantages too First sitting beside thecomputer or mobile for hours affects the eyesightof both students and teachers Doctors arereporting many cases of eyestrain amongchildren since the online classes have startedSecondly students are becoming lazy as theydonrsquot have to go out of their home Like theproverb lsquoAll work and no play makes Jack a dullboyrsquo is really happening Third students canbunk in the online classes easily As they haveno fear of punishment they learned to disobeyand disrespect teachers Fourth students havebeen given lots of assignments as a result ofwhich most students are copying othersassignments and are not learning anything newFifth it is very difficult to communicate asteachers cannot give attention to each studentLastly it can be concluded that no matter howthe classes are being held a student must bededicated and sincere towards their studiesAfter all onersquos future depends on what they do intheir present

An actuary is a business executive professionally trained in the mathematical sciences Actuariesspecialize in the evaluation of financial riskmdashmost often in the context of life health and casualtyinsurance where they design analyse and refine varied programs to meet the insurance needs ofsociety A growing number of actuaries work in the areas of assetliability management and risk managementSome of these actuaries are employed by investment and consulting firms others are employed byinsurance companies

Actuaries have been called financial architects and social mathematicians because their combinedanalytical and business skills help solve a growing variety of financial and social problems Theactuarial profession is a demanding yet rewarding career choice

In a world bombarded with numerical information informed decisions rely on the ability to separatefact from fiction by applying valid statistical analyses and visualizations Statisticians can providecrucial guidance in determining what information is reliable and which predictions may be trustedThey often help search for clues to the solution of a scientific mystery and sometimes keepinvestigators from being misled by false impressions

Thousands of statisticians work in medicine law agriculture public policy marketing manufacturingengineering and other fields in the social and natural sciences The diversity of applications is anexciting aspect of the field and is one more reason why the demand for well-trained statisticianscontinues to be strong

Contributed by Dr Meenu Goel

The curtain lifts on Bryant Elementary Schools Spring Recorder Recital Ninety third-graders fumble with their instruments take a breath

and blow Their parents braced breathe too

as Hot Crossed Buns emerges a little scattershot -- the Normal Distribution brought to life

By Go Tell Aunt Rhodie the audience

is moved by their sheer pretty-goodness though one kid knocks her music to the floor

and another squeaks to demonstrate

the tail two standard deviations below the mean The curve implies

that somewhere on stage another kid

just played a note so sweet he might shatter Mrs Wedermeyers glasses And if

there are a mother and father who think

that child is theirs may they be forgiven even if the child shining in their eyes

is moving his fingers slightly out of rhythm

even if hes never led the bell curve in his life In consecutive measures of almost unison

its easy to believe these children are musicians

Their parents do so stirred by Ode to Joy they rise to their feet with the final phrase

clapping from the darkened auditorium

at once as one heroically like the parents theyve meant to be

EK NAYA SAFAR

Mubarak ho apko zindgi ka naya safar

Naya hai sheher nai hai dagar

Chut gaye kuch rishte purane

But donrsquot worry yaar mil jayenge naye diwane

Kuch tum jaise khuch tum se alag

So just smile and start a new life

Dosti yaari ko zara side mai rakh ke

Edhar gaur famiye janab

Course toh tumne acha chuna hai

Kuch socha hai ya ese hi liya hai

College mai admission jab hota hai

Toh andar khushi ke fuvare futne lagte hai

Lekin syllabus o dekh kar yeh bhi dagmagane lagte hai

Mana CP paas hai vahi maat ghumte rehna

Varna paper mai cafeacute ki menu sheet hi likhte rehna

Donrsquot take a chill pill coz yaha ki teachers hai thori strict

Just because they want you to be the best

Ab kya kare college ka har din mamuli nahi hota

Aur 9 se 4 sirf parai nahi hoti

Gumo firo esh karo but parna na bhulo

Mana es saal kuch zyada hi speed breakers hai

But the best part is hum sab bhi toh sath hai

PONDERINGAll of humanity is but a set of numbers You and I

are nothing more than a statisticJust think about any decision you had to take

recently No matter your choice you might findyourself ending up only as an infinitesimal

decimal in the final percentage of a statisticianrsquosdiscourse Let me give you an example pertinent

to the world we live in today Say yoursquore arepublican and have to decide whether to wear a

mask or not Naturally your political instinctmight warn you against it However you might

still be inclined to wear one because yoursquoregenuinely scared about what the ldquoliberalsrdquo have

to say about the SARS-COV-2 Now now letrsquos notgo off-topic here I know you might be wondering

what yoursquod do if you were in a Republicanrsquos shoesBut thatrsquos not the point

In the end it seldom matters whether you are arepublican or a liberal especially in situations

like these What matters in the end is if you didgo out without wearing that infuriating

smothering mask And if you contracted thewretched virus because of it If yes hard luck

Yoursquore nothing more than one of the 841 millionpeople who have it Thatrsquos all that people aroundthe world will see Not your gender not your ageand certainly not your political belief Of course

there will be studies about the correlation ofthese factors with the incidence rate of the

infections but thatrsquos another story altogether andnot one possibly as broad as the one we talk

aboutMoreover the correlation must not be

confused with causation Now perhaps thatrsquosa story for another day But think about it thisway whether you go to college or drop out of

high school whether you choose to live ordecide to die no matter the decision no

matter your inclination or choice whetheryou like it or not you will be nothing more

than a statisticIt might sound a bit gloomy to be honestWhen I first thought about it I felt almostinsignificant Like a tiny speck of dust in a

galaxy of stars Alas isnrsquot that all that we arethough

A pale blue dot in an ocean of stars Ourplanet one among millions or perhaps

billions of others All 78 billion of us fightingfor a place in the world knowing full well we

canrsquot all possibly have it It might makeanyone feel overwhelmed but therersquos

something about that that is so challenging itis almost inspiring We all know statistics andwe all know life But the true beauty of life lies

in the ability to defy statistics Only onequestion remains are you up for the

challenge

It wonrsquot be any exaggeration If itrsquos said that tools of statistician are used in almost all fields ofcalculation

Be it research finance sports marketing sales health care or population countingIt is a crucial process behind How we make discoveries in science

Making decisions or claiming predictions It plays a crucial play in all situationsStats is involved everywhere from collection to interpretation From explanation to

presentationStatistics helps avoiding a wide variety of analytical traps By making sure that study follow

apt methods in all aspectsChallenging your own assumptions Or drawing data-based conclusions

Statistics is always there Making things crisp and clear

Donrsquot buy that lottery ticket Donrsquot wish for a fallen wicket

Statistically speaking it may all be in vain If you didnrsquot make it the first time why try

again

And if you donrsquot buy wish try andpredict

Why also bother living the life you claim tohave lived

It always seems impossible until it is done

If it makes you happyit doesnt have to make sense to others

When you cant find the sunshinebe the sunshine

Either you run the day or let the day run you

When you focus on the goodthe good gets better

It takes the same energy to worry as it doesto be positive so use your energy to thinkpositive and positive things will happen

The one thing that doesnt abide by majority rule is a persons conscience

Make happiness a priority and be gentle with yourself in the process

College the best start to unfold lifes beauty

Goodbye to the mistakes weve made remember the laughs weve shared

Will never forget these years

If you dont believe in yourself thenno one is going to believe in you So

Believe in Yourself

Be who you are and say what you feelbecause those who mind donrsquot matter and

those who matter donrsquot mind

Success is liking yourself liking what you do and liking how you do it

Happiness is a by-product of an effort to make someone else happy

If you are not willing to risk the unusual you will have to settle for the ordinary

Always keep it clean simple and precise

Hustle until you no longer have to introduce yourself

Dream it Wish it Do it

There are no limits to what you can accomplish except the limits you place

on your own thinking

The greatness of humanity is not in being human but in being humane

You will be exactly as happy as you decide

One thing to learn from the sun is thatwhenever a cloud tries to hinder itslight it finds its own path to shine

Excellence is not achieved - it is aspired to and trekked towards The tougher the trek

the better the views

I think the day we figure out everythingabout our lives is the day we die

Finding your magic can be scary but owning it will be EUPHORIA

An approximate answer to the right problem is worth a good deal more than

an exact answer to an approximate problem

Whenever the word lsquobusinessrsquo is heard lsquosalesrsquo isthe word which comes to our mind next and whatexactly assists sales is STATISTICS Donrsquotbelieve me but I am sure after reading the articleyou would all agree to my point too So what doesa businessman do He manufactures and sellsthe goods produced to the public but both ofthese basic functions of the businessman cannotbe transcended without the help of statistics toolssuch as survey statistics driven softwares tocollect and analyse the demand of the customerand to what extent ie the quantity in which it isrequired in order to maximize their total revenueThe graphs and the tables formed ie the statshelp them to know the exact condition of themarket and its inclination so that they could comeout with offers and discounts in order to attractpublic towards their product maximizing theirsales The businessmen who is believed to bevery quick and accurate in decision making is allassisted by statistics at every point fromanalysing their sales profit margins wages of theemployees the improvements required in theproduct the billing counters are all carriedforward with the help of statistical tools Thefinancial resources required for investing in thebusiness are also arranged according to theassistance given by the data analysts Themarketing and advertisement of the products alsoneeds statistics Now you would be thinking how

amp its regular maintenance is all handled bystatistical applications In order to calculate theaverage mean median loss profit and all theother commerce related terms in businessesdealing with large amount of data is all handledby statisticians Statistics also helps inmaintaining employee performancemanagement A manager collects data aboutemployee productivity such as the number oftasks completed or the number of unitsproduced He or she must analyse data to findways in which an employee should improve toachieve maximum productivity Manycompanies also collect data about employeeengagement and happiness on the job whichcan be tracked to not only keep workersmotivated but ensure they dont leave for otherpositions elsewhere This helps in increasingthe efficiency of the employees and also createsa healthy working environment I have listed lotof points to prove the importance of statistics inbusinesses and hope that you will now agree towhat I mentioned in the beginning of the article

Whenever a method of marketing is thought thepercentage of people to get influenced the agegroup to target the kind of offers to be laid downare all done through statistics You might haveheard that now data is the new oil that means lifeis all surrounded with data and for the data andthe demand for its upkeep and analysis the dataanalysts are required and in big organizationswho actually target all age groups and sell allkinds of products on a large scale have a largedatabase not only of the customers but also oftheir n number of employees So an organizationis incomplete without data and where there isdata there is statistics In fact I would say thatan organization isnrsquot an organization if they donot have data and its proper upkeep in such acase the company will surely drain out so thisactually proves how important statistics hasbecome in the business point of view Thebanking sector canrsquot function without statisticsand this banking business forms the backbone ofthe country since all the customers of the bankhave loads of data for a particular bank account

By Prekshi Singhal and Payal Gupta ( 3rd Year )

Statistics is the science of learning from dataStatistical knowledge helps an individual to usethe proper methods for collecting data employthe correct analysis and present the resultseffectively Statistical analysis is thus used inalmost all fields to make sense out of the vastamount of data that is available Thus statisticalmethodologies are not only useful in drawingimportant results but also play a significant role inproducing new findings and understanding thework of others One such field which has wideuse of the statistical techniques andmethodologies is the Insurance Sector Insuranceis basically the business of risk as it involves thetransfer of risk from one party to another

The main incoming and outgoing source ofincome in the business of insurance is throughpremiums and claims respectively Manystatistical models are used to model claimsand losses Parameters for these distributionsare estimated using Method of momentMaximum likelihood estimates etc and thenGoodness of fit testis applied to check howwell our distribution fits to the data Timeseries model plays an important role inforecasting future values Statistics is used toanswer the most important questions for theinsurance industry What percentage ofpolicies are expected to payout How muchmoney the company must expect to payout inclaims Different methods of data collectioneither in primary or secondary form are usedto determine the required reserves premiumand future predictions Apart from this manystatistical methods for eg Linear modelmethod which uses regression as the maintool in determining the factors affectingpremiums Loss distribution method in whichhistogram and bar graphs are made tocompare different categories and complexstatistical tools such as Ruin Theory and Run-off triangles are used to develop newproducts absorb and evaluate risk and ruinwhen balancing claims reserves andpremiums Thus statistics plays anirreplaceable role in the life cycle ofinsurance business for both life and non-life insurance

Statistics help in

Measuring the stability of drugs-II) Production of drugs according to demandsIII) Effectiveness of drugsIV) Quality control of drugs V) Marketing of drugs VI) Testing the side effects of the drug with thehelp of data VII) Going through the procedure of approvaland public distribution of drugs

Statistics in developing a drug

A lot of statistics tools are used duringproduction clinical trials and marketing andpublic distribution of drugs-1 Average (mean median and mode) Usedduring experiments like stability testingcombination of chemicals and checking acidity orbasicity of solutions to calculate mean averageresults2 Standard deviation and variance It is ameasure of testing precision Can be used toevaluate precision at various points in a processor to evaluate the precision between two differentmethods of the experiment3 Q test for rejecting data It is used to checkoutliers in data ie to check unusual deviation ina data set to see if it can be statistically rejected

4 Confidence limits It helps in finding theprobability of the true value being within acalculable range It makes use of multiplyingstandard deviation with studentrsquos t-factor thatdetermines the confidence interval of theobservation at the stated confidence level5 t F Chi-square and other tests Helps incomparing the results of two data sets For egside effects of different medication in the samepopulation6 Correlation Helps to detect the relationbetween two attributes of a data for eg howthe effect of a medicine increases or decreasesdue to the change in dosage how increase ordecrease in temperature affects the stability ofcertain medication

Clinical Trials

Clinical trials are research studies that evaluatenew ways to improve treatments and quality oflife for people with disease and in presentscenario global pandemic COVID-19 Resultsfrom Clinical trials help develop

1 New drugsvaccines 2 New diagnostic tools 3 New clinical procedures

Participants volunteer for clinical trials

(28)

In this method of stratified random sampling isused to divide the volunteers into different stratabased on shared attributes or characteristicssuch as gender medical conditions and otherspecifics These stratarsquos are used in differentphases of clinical trials

Clinical trials have 4 phases

Before trial begins volunteers need tounderstand the potential benefits and potentialrisks before participating in clinical trials thatrsquoswhy pre-clinical phase is conducted to test thenew treatment on animals and healthyvolunteers This part comes under descriptivestatistics where we are using the observed(benefits and risks) for further research Phase 1- In this new treatment is tested for thefirst time to know how treatment affects thebody to determine a safe dose range forvaccine and their side effects It involvesrelatively 20-80 volunteers Stats approach-Association analysis is performed to capture thecorrelations between drug therapeuticindications and side-effects In order to achievethis goal we adopted Fishers exact test whichis a widely used approach for measuring thesignificance of the association between twonominal variables For example to test thesignificance of the association between drugtherapeutic indications A and drug side effect B

Phase 2- The study involves how well a newtreatment or combination of treatment goes wellwith certain types of patients It involves up to300 patient volunteers For example out oftotal cancer patients half of the patients areselected randomly and are given cancertreatment along with new vaccine and other halfare given cancer treatment along with standardtreatment of corona virus Now side effects inboth the cases are noted Aim is to determinewhich combination of treatment will have lessside effects Chi- square test is used tocompare the side effects in both the cases Phase 3- In this phase effectiveness of addinga new treatment to the standard treatment isstudied 100-1000 volunteers participate in thisphase Stats approach- Participants arerandomly split into two groups 1st group(treatment group) receives the standardtreatment + new vaccine and 2nd group (controlgroup) receives standard treatment + placebo(a treatment that looks identical to the newtreatment but contains no active ingredient) Inthis phase mean time taken to develop antibodies in both the groups are compared usingZ-test (Test of significance for difference inmeans)

Phase 4- In this phase no volunteers areinvolved researchersrsquo monitor drug safety andeffectiveness It involves optimal usage

gtgt Easy to LearnBeing involved in development for web servicesmobile apps as well as coding Yes it is one ofthe most famous language characteristics Morethan that a low and thus fast learning curve isthe next pre-eminence of Python whencomparing it with older languages on offer

gtgt Well-SupportedHaving the experience of using some tools forfree you probably know that it is a challenge toget decent support but thatrsquos not the case withPython Despite the high simplicity there can besituations when you still need help with PythonBeing in widespread use like in industries oracademic areas Python has a broad array ofhelpful libraries with tons of helpful and supportmaterials The great benefit is that all thelibraries are available at no cost

gtgt ScalabilityThis Pythonrsquos feature is closely connected withthe previous option Comparing with otherlanguages like R Java python is much fasterand more scalable Therefore it is good invarious fields that can solve a wide range ofproblems Thatrsquos why many companies havemigrated to Python

ldquoCollege life is known as one of the most memorable years of astudentrsquos life exposing them to new experiences like meeting new

people learning new things exploring places etcrdquo

A registered clinical psychologist in Honk Kongnamed Zanonia Chiu said - ldquoGoing to school hadbeen a struggle for some children (withdepression) prior to the pandemic but at leastthey had school routines to stick with Now thatschools are closed some lock themselves upinside their rooms for weeks refusing to takeshowers eat or leave their beds For somechildren with depression there will beconsiderable difficulties adjusting back to normallife when college resumesrdquo and according to anonline survey conducted with the study periodfrom April 2020 to May 2020 - Total 531372 and 243 had symptoms of depressionanxiety and stress respectively with varyingseverities (N=727)The conclusion of the surveyindicated that COVID-19 is building psychologicaldistress among vulnerable college students asthey are forced to stay home along withworsening financial situations lifestyle changesfamily situations and time spent on variousactivities

Sounds so interesting and happening right Itis true indeed but along with stressful timeaside Along with the perks of enjoyingfreedom more than ever there comesacademic pressure tasks of separation fromfamilies career building futureresponsibilities etc Boarding on with thecollege life is a stressful time for manystudents thereby affecting their mental healthMental health problems are very commonamong college students and have been anincreasing concern However the COVID-19pandemic situation has brought this vulnerablepopulation into renewed focus Following thepandemic schools colleges offices andalmost every place that involved humaninteraction was shut It is important to note thatcollegeschool or even a normal routine areimportant coping mechanisms for youngpeople with mental health issues and wheneverything is shut down they lose an anchor inlife and their symptoms could relapse

Mental health among students is a big concernhowever ldquoUNTREATEDrdquo mental illnesses are amuch bigger and exponentially growingconcern Reaching out is an important step formental health issues to be addressed andtreated but reach out to who This is the pointwhere our institution should take over Collegesplay a big role in this stage Colleges doaddress this issue through means of orientationsessions and workshops but there is still a needto address mental health more directly Themethods to address mental health issuesshould be accessible feasible and affordablefor the students For example at NorthwesternUniversity student feedback led orientationenabled organizers to shift their focus fromexpert speakers to student testimonials Meansto address the issue vary from traditionalpresentations and panel discussions to roleplays small group discussions etc Herestudents learn how to recognize mental illnesssymptoms where to find resources andsupport and how to talk to friends who mightbe struggling

The findings of this study highlighted theurgent need to develop interventions andpreventive strategies to address the mentalhealth of college students Another InterviewSurvey study conducted by the Journal ofMedical Internet Research highlighted that of195 students 138 (71) indicated increasedstress and anxiety due to the COVID-19outbreak Multiple stressors were identified thatcontributed to the increased levels of stressanxiety and depressive thoughts amongstudents These included fear and worry abouttheir own health and of their loved ones(177195 91 reported negative impacts ofthe pandemic) difficulty in concentrating(173195 89) disruptions to sleepingpatterns (168195 86) decreased socialinteractions due to physical distancing(167195 86) and increased concerns onacademic performance (159195 82) Tocope with stress and anxiety participants havesought support from others and helpedthemselves by adopting either negative orpositive coping mechanisms It is important toknow that creating awareness about any issueis never enough action is what is neededTaking leave from workschool because of a fluor a fracture is acceptable and might even helpin the process of cure and healing howevertaking time off because of stress from a mentalillness such as anxiety or depressionunfortunately is not

lsquoOnline classrsquo is a term which most of us werenrsquotfamiliar with Before this pandemic we neverthought of getting education at home Covid hasaffected all of our lives In past pursuingeducation meant going to the schoolcollege Butnow the whole scenario has changed Childrenare studying and attending classes from homeJust like there are two sides of a coin onlineclasses also have some advantages anddisadvantages

Starting from the advantages it saves time forboth students and teachers as they donrsquot haveto travel All they have to do is to join throughtheir mobiles or laptops Secondly studentsdonrsquot have to necessarily buy books from theshops like they had to do in offline classesbecause they are given pdfs from which they canstudy Therefore it saves money Third it can beattended from anywhere in the world Unlike inthe offline classes where we had to gather at aparticular place Fourth computer basedpractical can be easily understood as studentscan share their screen with teachers Also it iseasy for teachers to explain a topic with the helpof pictures or animations which can be easilyfound on the internet

Last but not the least Parents can keep an eyeon their children whether they are studyingproperly or not

Apart from advantages it has somedisadvantages too First sitting beside thecomputer or mobile for hours affects the eyesightof both students and teachers Doctors arereporting many cases of eyestrain amongchildren since the online classes have startedSecondly students are becoming lazy as theydonrsquot have to go out of their home Like theproverb lsquoAll work and no play makes Jack a dullboyrsquo is really happening Third students canbunk in the online classes easily As they haveno fear of punishment they learned to disobeyand disrespect teachers Fourth students havebeen given lots of assignments as a result ofwhich most students are copying othersassignments and are not learning anything newFifth it is very difficult to communicate asteachers cannot give attention to each studentLastly it can be concluded that no matter howthe classes are being held a student must bededicated and sincere towards their studiesAfter all onersquos future depends on what they do intheir present

An actuary is a business executive professionally trained in the mathematical sciences Actuariesspecialize in the evaluation of financial riskmdashmost often in the context of life health and casualtyinsurance where they design analyse and refine varied programs to meet the insurance needs ofsociety A growing number of actuaries work in the areas of assetliability management and risk managementSome of these actuaries are employed by investment and consulting firms others are employed byinsurance companies

Actuaries have been called financial architects and social mathematicians because their combinedanalytical and business skills help solve a growing variety of financial and social problems Theactuarial profession is a demanding yet rewarding career choice

In a world bombarded with numerical information informed decisions rely on the ability to separatefact from fiction by applying valid statistical analyses and visualizations Statisticians can providecrucial guidance in determining what information is reliable and which predictions may be trustedThey often help search for clues to the solution of a scientific mystery and sometimes keepinvestigators from being misled by false impressions

Thousands of statisticians work in medicine law agriculture public policy marketing manufacturingengineering and other fields in the social and natural sciences The diversity of applications is anexciting aspect of the field and is one more reason why the demand for well-trained statisticianscontinues to be strong

Contributed by Dr Meenu Goel

The curtain lifts on Bryant Elementary Schools Spring Recorder Recital Ninety third-graders fumble with their instruments take a breath

and blow Their parents braced breathe too

as Hot Crossed Buns emerges a little scattershot -- the Normal Distribution brought to life

By Go Tell Aunt Rhodie the audience

is moved by their sheer pretty-goodness though one kid knocks her music to the floor

and another squeaks to demonstrate

the tail two standard deviations below the mean The curve implies

that somewhere on stage another kid

just played a note so sweet he might shatter Mrs Wedermeyers glasses And if

there are a mother and father who think

that child is theirs may they be forgiven even if the child shining in their eyes

is moving his fingers slightly out of rhythm

even if hes never led the bell curve in his life In consecutive measures of almost unison

its easy to believe these children are musicians

Their parents do so stirred by Ode to Joy they rise to their feet with the final phrase

clapping from the darkened auditorium

at once as one heroically like the parents theyve meant to be

EK NAYA SAFAR

Mubarak ho apko zindgi ka naya safar

Naya hai sheher nai hai dagar

Chut gaye kuch rishte purane

But donrsquot worry yaar mil jayenge naye diwane

Kuch tum jaise khuch tum se alag

So just smile and start a new life

Dosti yaari ko zara side mai rakh ke

Edhar gaur famiye janab

Course toh tumne acha chuna hai

Kuch socha hai ya ese hi liya hai

College mai admission jab hota hai

Toh andar khushi ke fuvare futne lagte hai

Lekin syllabus o dekh kar yeh bhi dagmagane lagte hai

Mana CP paas hai vahi maat ghumte rehna

Varna paper mai cafeacute ki menu sheet hi likhte rehna

Donrsquot take a chill pill coz yaha ki teachers hai thori strict

Just because they want you to be the best

Ab kya kare college ka har din mamuli nahi hota

Aur 9 se 4 sirf parai nahi hoti

Gumo firo esh karo but parna na bhulo

Mana es saal kuch zyada hi speed breakers hai

But the best part is hum sab bhi toh sath hai

PONDERINGAll of humanity is but a set of numbers You and I

are nothing more than a statisticJust think about any decision you had to take

recently No matter your choice you might findyourself ending up only as an infinitesimal

decimal in the final percentage of a statisticianrsquosdiscourse Let me give you an example pertinent

to the world we live in today Say yoursquore arepublican and have to decide whether to wear a

mask or not Naturally your political instinctmight warn you against it However you might

still be inclined to wear one because yoursquoregenuinely scared about what the ldquoliberalsrdquo have

to say about the SARS-COV-2 Now now letrsquos notgo off-topic here I know you might be wondering

what yoursquod do if you were in a Republicanrsquos shoesBut thatrsquos not the point

In the end it seldom matters whether you are arepublican or a liberal especially in situations

like these What matters in the end is if you didgo out without wearing that infuriating

smothering mask And if you contracted thewretched virus because of it If yes hard luck

Yoursquore nothing more than one of the 841 millionpeople who have it Thatrsquos all that people aroundthe world will see Not your gender not your ageand certainly not your political belief Of course

there will be studies about the correlation ofthese factors with the incidence rate of the

infections but thatrsquos another story altogether andnot one possibly as broad as the one we talk

aboutMoreover the correlation must not be

confused with causation Now perhaps thatrsquosa story for another day But think about it thisway whether you go to college or drop out of

high school whether you choose to live ordecide to die no matter the decision no

matter your inclination or choice whetheryou like it or not you will be nothing more

than a statisticIt might sound a bit gloomy to be honestWhen I first thought about it I felt almostinsignificant Like a tiny speck of dust in a

galaxy of stars Alas isnrsquot that all that we arethough

A pale blue dot in an ocean of stars Ourplanet one among millions or perhaps

billions of others All 78 billion of us fightingfor a place in the world knowing full well we

canrsquot all possibly have it It might makeanyone feel overwhelmed but therersquos

something about that that is so challenging itis almost inspiring We all know statistics andwe all know life But the true beauty of life lies

in the ability to defy statistics Only onequestion remains are you up for the

challenge

It always seems impossible until it is done

If it makes you happyit doesnt have to make sense to others

When you cant find the sunshinebe the sunshine

Either you run the day or let the day run you

When you focus on the goodthe good gets better

It takes the same energy to worry as it doesto be positive so use your energy to thinkpositive and positive things will happen

The one thing that doesnt abide by majority rule is a persons conscience

Make happiness a priority and be gentle with yourself in the process

College the best start to unfold lifes beauty

Goodbye to the mistakes weve made remember the laughs weve shared

Will never forget these years

People are capable at anytime in their lives of doing what they dream of

productivity and replace it by degree ofpresence

May every sunrise bring you hopeMay every sunset bring you peace

If you dont believe in yourself thenno one is going to believe in you So

Believe in Yourself

Be who you are and say what you feelbecause those who mind donrsquot matter and

those who matter donrsquot mind

Success is liking yourself liking what you do and liking how you do it

Happiness is a by-product of an effort to make someone else happy

If you are not willing to risk the unusual you will have to settle for the ordinary

Always keep it clean simple and precise

Hustle until you no longer have to introduce yourself

Dream it Wish it Do it

There are no limits to what you can accomplish except the limits you place

on your own thinking

The greatness of humanity is not in being human but in being humane

You will be exactly as happy as you decide

One thing to learn from the sun is thatwhenever a cloud tries to hinder itslight it finds its own path to shine

Excellence is not achieved - it is aspired to and trekked towards The tougher the trek

the better the views

I think the day we figure out everythingabout our lives is the day we die

Finding your magic can be scary but owning it will be EUPHORIA

An approximate answer to the right problem is worth a good deal more than

an exact answer to an approximate problem

Our greatest weakness lies in giving up The most certain way to succeed is always to try just one more time

The aim is to live happily heal throughevery situation and learn everything new

with every step taken

Believe in progress not perfection

Whenever a method of marketing is thought thepercentage of people to get influenced the agegroup to target the kind of offers to be laid downare all done through statistics You might haveheard that now data is the new oil that means lifeis all surrounded with data and for the data andthe demand for its upkeep and analysis the dataanalysts are required and in big organizationswho actually target all age groups and sell allkinds of products on a large scale have a largedatabase not only of the customers but also oftheir n number of employees So an organizationis incomplete without data and where there isdata there is statistics In fact I would say thatan organization isnrsquot an organization if they donot have data and its proper upkeep in such acase the company will surely drain out so thisactually proves how important statistics hasbecome in the business point of view Thebanking sector canrsquot function without statisticsand this banking business forms the backbone ofthe country since all the customers of the bankhave loads of data for a particular bank account

The main incoming and outgoing source ofincome in the business of insurance is throughpremiums and claims respectively Manystatistical models are used to model claimsand losses Parameters for these distributionsare estimated using Method of momentMaximum likelihood estimates etc and thenGoodness of fit testis applied to check howwell our distribution fits to the data Timeseries model plays an important role inforecasting future values Statistics is used toanswer the most important questions for theinsurance industry What percentage ofpolicies are expected to payout How muchmoney the company must expect to payout inclaims Different methods of data collectioneither in primary or secondary form are usedto determine the required reserves premiumand future predictions Apart from this manystatistical methods for eg Linear modelmethod which uses regression as the maintool in determining the factors affectingpremiums Loss distribution method in whichhistogram and bar graphs are made tocompare different categories and complexstatistical tools such as Ruin Theory and Run-off triangles are used to develop newproducts absorb and evaluate risk and ruinwhen balancing claims reserves andpremiums Thus statistics plays anirreplaceable role in the life cycle ofinsurance business for both life and non-life insurance

Statistics help in

Measuring the stability of drugs-II) Production of drugs according to demandsIII) Effectiveness of drugsIV) Quality control of drugs V) Marketing of drugs VI) Testing the side effects of the drug with thehelp of data VII) Going through the procedure of approvaland public distribution of drugs

Statistics in developing a drug

A lot of statistics tools are used duringproduction clinical trials and marketing andpublic distribution of drugs-1 Average (mean median and mode) Usedduring experiments like stability testingcombination of chemicals and checking acidity orbasicity of solutions to calculate mean averageresults2 Standard deviation and variance It is ameasure of testing precision Can be used toevaluate precision at various points in a processor to evaluate the precision between two differentmethods of the experiment3 Q test for rejecting data It is used to checkoutliers in data ie to check unusual deviation ina data set to see if it can be statistically rejected

4 Confidence limits It helps in finding theprobability of the true value being within acalculable range It makes use of multiplyingstandard deviation with studentrsquos t-factor thatdetermines the confidence interval of theobservation at the stated confidence level5 t F Chi-square and other tests Helps incomparing the results of two data sets For egside effects of different medication in the samepopulation6 Correlation Helps to detect the relationbetween two attributes of a data for eg howthe effect of a medicine increases or decreasesdue to the change in dosage how increase ordecrease in temperature affects the stability ofcertain medication

Clinical Trials

Clinical trials are research studies that evaluatenew ways to improve treatments and quality oflife for people with disease and in presentscenario global pandemic COVID-19 Resultsfrom Clinical trials help develop

1 New drugsvaccines 2 New diagnostic tools 3 New clinical procedures

Participants volunteer for clinical trials

(28)

In this method of stratified random sampling isused to divide the volunteers into different stratabased on shared attributes or characteristicssuch as gender medical conditions and otherspecifics These stratarsquos are used in differentphases of clinical trials

Clinical trials have 4 phases

Before trial begins volunteers need tounderstand the potential benefits and potentialrisks before participating in clinical trials thatrsquoswhy pre-clinical phase is conducted to test thenew treatment on animals and healthyvolunteers This part comes under descriptivestatistics where we are using the observed(benefits and risks) for further research Phase 1- In this new treatment is tested for thefirst time to know how treatment affects thebody to determine a safe dose range forvaccine and their side effects It involvesrelatively 20-80 volunteers Stats approach-Association analysis is performed to capture thecorrelations between drug therapeuticindications and side-effects In order to achievethis goal we adopted Fishers exact test whichis a widely used approach for measuring thesignificance of the association between twonominal variables For example to test thesignificance of the association between drugtherapeutic indications A and drug side effect B

Phase 2- The study involves how well a newtreatment or combination of treatment goes wellwith certain types of patients It involves up to300 patient volunteers For example out oftotal cancer patients half of the patients areselected randomly and are given cancertreatment along with new vaccine and other halfare given cancer treatment along with standardtreatment of corona virus Now side effects inboth the cases are noted Aim is to determinewhich combination of treatment will have lessside effects Chi- square test is used tocompare the side effects in both the cases Phase 3- In this phase effectiveness of addinga new treatment to the standard treatment isstudied 100-1000 volunteers participate in thisphase Stats approach- Participants arerandomly split into two groups 1st group(treatment group) receives the standardtreatment + new vaccine and 2nd group (controlgroup) receives standard treatment + placebo(a treatment that looks identical to the newtreatment but contains no active ingredient) Inthis phase mean time taken to develop antibodies in both the groups are compared usingZ-test (Test of significance for difference inmeans)

Phase 4- In this phase no volunteers areinvolved researchersrsquo monitor drug safety andeffectiveness It involves optimal usage

What comes to your mind when you first hear theword Statisticsrsquo Graphs numbers or lines butwhat if I say that statistics comes with enumerablecareer opportunities The options are endless andthe jobs are just a little But what is the barrier thatholds us from thinking of Statistics as a separatesubject and just an extension of MathematicsMost of us still donrsquot know what statistics is allabout If we tell someone that we are a student ofStatistics they might just think itrsquos not a careeroption Even Google offers with a line explanationof Statistics ldquonumbers that have been collectedin order to provide information aboutsomethingrdquo Statistics is defined as theaggregate of facts affected to a market extent bymultiplicity of causes numerically expressed orestimated according to a reasonable standard ofaccuracy collected in a systematic manner forpredetermined purpose and placed in relation toeach other It is the art of learning from data It isconcerned with learning from data and theiranalysis As a plural it means numerical dataarising in any sphere of human experience thatis mostly unknown sources working togetherwhereas singularly it refers to the collection andinterpretation of numerical data The branchlsquoStatisticsrsquo is broadly divided into two formsDescriptive and Inferential Statistics DescriptiveStatistics involves collection analysation andcharacterization of data It includes graphicalmethods and numeric measures InferentialStatistic involves estimation and conclusion ofdata that has been classified under descriptivestatistics

Statistics is used in a variety of fields likecommerce trade economics chemistryastronomy industry etc Every field comes withone or the other usage of statistics Whether it bethe biggest of MNCrsquos or even a tea stall holdereveryone requires the usage of statistical tools todraw conclusion on what step they need to takenext The levels of profit or losses to obtainmaximum results from minimum resources allthis needs carefully collected data and thendrawing valid inference from it by using variousstatistical tools and techniques Even in day today life the change in prices of goodsvegetables and the trivial yet most importantdecision of whether to buy a new pair of shoes orclothes so that the house budget is not affectedcomes under Statistics The Government usesStatistics at a wide level whether it be forconducting a population census prediction ofoutcome of elections or drawing conclusions onwhether a new law should be passed or not Allthis requires Statistics It eliminates the chancesof uncertainty and predictions by laying the factsand figures required to reach to a correctdecision Even in the outbreak of this globalpandemic Statistics was extensively used be itto know numbers of cases rising daily number ofhospital facilities and medicine required therequirement of vaccines or the recovery ratesand so on The graphs drawn helped the generalpublic to easily understand the prevailingscenario and progress rate Thus Statistics is awide concept that is a helping hand in thisgrowing economy

Codes canrsquot lie but comments can mightseems to be simple yet very meaningful

We all live in the digital era of hightechnologies smart devices and mobilesolutions Data is an essential aspect of anybusiness Itrsquos crucial to gather process andanalyse the data flow and to do that as quicklyand accurately as possible Nowadays the datavolume can be large which makes informationhandling time-consuming and expensive Dueto this precise reason the data science industryis growing at a rapid pace creating newpossibilities as well as opportunities and pythonis one of the solutions to understand andanalyse such big data sets It is a cross-functional language that has lots of advantagesto offer This object-oriented programminglanguage is commonly used to streamline largecomplex data sets Not only this it has a highreadability that helps data analysts to save timeby typing fewer lines of code for accomplishingthe tasks Therefore itrsquos not surprising at allthat it is claimed to be the preferredprogramming language for data science

Let me tell you why Python is a number oneoption for data analysis-

By Tanisha Gupta ( 3rd Year )

gtgt Easy to LearnBeing involved in development for web servicesmobile apps as well as coding Yes it is one ofthe most famous language characteristics Morethan that a low and thus fast learning curve isthe next pre-eminence of Python whencomparing it with older languages on offer

gtgt Well-SupportedHaving the experience of using some tools forfree you probably know that it is a challenge toget decent support but thatrsquos not the case withPython Despite the high simplicity there can besituations when you still need help with PythonBeing in widespread use like in industries oracademic areas Python has a broad array ofhelpful libraries with tons of helpful and supportmaterials The great benefit is that all thelibraries are available at no cost

gtgt ScalabilityThis Pythonrsquos feature is closely connected withthe previous option Comparing with otherlanguages like R Java python is much fasterand more scalable Therefore it is good invarious fields that can solve a wide range ofproblems Thatrsquos why many companies havemigrated to Python

(34)

gtgt Huge Libraries CollectionAs I have already mentioned Python is one ofthe most supported languages nowadays Ithas a long list of totally free libraries availablefor all the users Thatrsquos a key factor that givesa strong push for Python If yoursquore involved inthe field more likely you are acquainted withsuch names as Pandas SciPy Stats ModelsMatplotlib etc libraries that are intensivelyutilized in the data science community Hereyou can easily find a solution needed forhassle-free work without additional expenses

gtgt Graphics and Visualization ToolsItrsquos a well-known fact that visual information ismuch easier to understand operate andremember So here is some good news foryou There is a pack of diverse visualizationoptions available that makes python a must-have tool not only for data analysis but for alldata science You can make the data moreaccessible and easier to use by means ofcreating various charts and graphics as wellas interactive plots Always remember that thesuccess of your business directly depends onthe ability to extract knowledge and insightsfrom data to make effective strategicdecisions stay competitive and makeprogress and Python is the internationallyclaimed programming language to help us inhandling our data in a better manner for avariety of causes

ldquoCollege life is known as one of the most memorable years of astudentrsquos life exposing them to new experiences like meeting new

people learning new things exploring places etcrdquo

A registered clinical psychologist in Honk Kongnamed Zanonia Chiu said - ldquoGoing to school hadbeen a struggle for some children (withdepression) prior to the pandemic but at leastthey had school routines to stick with Now thatschools are closed some lock themselves upinside their rooms for weeks refusing to takeshowers eat or leave their beds For somechildren with depression there will beconsiderable difficulties adjusting back to normallife when college resumesrdquo and according to anonline survey conducted with the study periodfrom April 2020 to May 2020 - Total 531372 and 243 had symptoms of depressionanxiety and stress respectively with varyingseverities (N=727)The conclusion of the surveyindicated that COVID-19 is building psychologicaldistress among vulnerable college students asthey are forced to stay home along withworsening financial situations lifestyle changesfamily situations and time spent on variousactivities

Sounds so interesting and happening right Itis true indeed but along with stressful timeaside Along with the perks of enjoyingfreedom more than ever there comesacademic pressure tasks of separation fromfamilies career building futureresponsibilities etc Boarding on with thecollege life is a stressful time for manystudents thereby affecting their mental healthMental health problems are very commonamong college students and have been anincreasing concern However the COVID-19pandemic situation has brought this vulnerablepopulation into renewed focus Following thepandemic schools colleges offices andalmost every place that involved humaninteraction was shut It is important to note thatcollegeschool or even a normal routine areimportant coping mechanisms for youngpeople with mental health issues and wheneverything is shut down they lose an anchor inlife and their symptoms could relapse

Mental health among students is a big concernhowever ldquoUNTREATEDrdquo mental illnesses are amuch bigger and exponentially growingconcern Reaching out is an important step formental health issues to be addressed andtreated but reach out to who This is the pointwhere our institution should take over Collegesplay a big role in this stage Colleges doaddress this issue through means of orientationsessions and workshops but there is still a needto address mental health more directly Themethods to address mental health issuesshould be accessible feasible and affordablefor the students For example at NorthwesternUniversity student feedback led orientationenabled organizers to shift their focus fromexpert speakers to student testimonials Meansto address the issue vary from traditionalpresentations and panel discussions to roleplays small group discussions etc Herestudents learn how to recognize mental illnesssymptoms where to find resources andsupport and how to talk to friends who mightbe struggling

The findings of this study highlighted theurgent need to develop interventions andpreventive strategies to address the mentalhealth of college students Another InterviewSurvey study conducted by the Journal ofMedical Internet Research highlighted that of195 students 138 (71) indicated increasedstress and anxiety due to the COVID-19outbreak Multiple stressors were identified thatcontributed to the increased levels of stressanxiety and depressive thoughts amongstudents These included fear and worry abouttheir own health and of their loved ones(177195 91 reported negative impacts ofthe pandemic) difficulty in concentrating(173195 89) disruptions to sleepingpatterns (168195 86) decreased socialinteractions due to physical distancing(167195 86) and increased concerns onacademic performance (159195 82) Tocope with stress and anxiety participants havesought support from others and helpedthemselves by adopting either negative orpositive coping mechanisms It is important toknow that creating awareness about any issueis never enough action is what is neededTaking leave from workschool because of a fluor a fracture is acceptable and might even helpin the process of cure and healing howevertaking time off because of stress from a mentalillness such as anxiety or depressionunfortunately is not

lsquoOnline classrsquo is a term which most of us werenrsquotfamiliar with Before this pandemic we neverthought of getting education at home Covid hasaffected all of our lives In past pursuingeducation meant going to the schoolcollege Butnow the whole scenario has changed Childrenare studying and attending classes from homeJust like there are two sides of a coin onlineclasses also have some advantages anddisadvantages

Starting from the advantages it saves time forboth students and teachers as they donrsquot haveto travel All they have to do is to join throughtheir mobiles or laptops Secondly studentsdonrsquot have to necessarily buy books from theshops like they had to do in offline classesbecause they are given pdfs from which they canstudy Therefore it saves money Third it can beattended from anywhere in the world Unlike inthe offline classes where we had to gather at aparticular place Fourth computer basedpractical can be easily understood as studentscan share their screen with teachers Also it iseasy for teachers to explain a topic with the helpof pictures or animations which can be easilyfound on the internet

Last but not the least Parents can keep an eyeon their children whether they are studyingproperly or not

Apart from advantages it has somedisadvantages too First sitting beside thecomputer or mobile for hours affects the eyesightof both students and teachers Doctors arereporting many cases of eyestrain amongchildren since the online classes have startedSecondly students are becoming lazy as theydonrsquot have to go out of their home Like theproverb lsquoAll work and no play makes Jack a dullboyrsquo is really happening Third students canbunk in the online classes easily As they haveno fear of punishment they learned to disobeyand disrespect teachers Fourth students havebeen given lots of assignments as a result ofwhich most students are copying othersassignments and are not learning anything newFifth it is very difficult to communicate asteachers cannot give attention to each studentLastly it can be concluded that no matter howthe classes are being held a student must bededicated and sincere towards their studiesAfter all onersquos future depends on what they do intheir present

An actuary is a business executive professionally trained in the mathematical sciences Actuariesspecialize in the evaluation of financial riskmdashmost often in the context of life health and casualtyinsurance where they design analyse and refine varied programs to meet the insurance needs ofsociety A growing number of actuaries work in the areas of assetliability management and risk managementSome of these actuaries are employed by investment and consulting firms others are employed byinsurance companies

Actuaries have been called financial architects and social mathematicians because their combinedanalytical and business skills help solve a growing variety of financial and social problems Theactuarial profession is a demanding yet rewarding career choice

In a world bombarded with numerical information informed decisions rely on the ability to separatefact from fiction by applying valid statistical analyses and visualizations Statisticians can providecrucial guidance in determining what information is reliable and which predictions may be trustedThey often help search for clues to the solution of a scientific mystery and sometimes keepinvestigators from being misled by false impressions

Thousands of statisticians work in medicine law agriculture public policy marketing manufacturingengineering and other fields in the social and natural sciences The diversity of applications is anexciting aspect of the field and is one more reason why the demand for well-trained statisticianscontinues to be strong

Contributed by Dr Meenu Goel

The curtain lifts on Bryant Elementary Schools Spring Recorder Recital Ninety third-graders fumble with their instruments take a breath

and blow Their parents braced breathe too

as Hot Crossed Buns emerges a little scattershot -- the Normal Distribution brought to life

By Go Tell Aunt Rhodie the audience

is moved by their sheer pretty-goodness though one kid knocks her music to the floor

and another squeaks to demonstrate

the tail two standard deviations below the mean The curve implies

that somewhere on stage another kid

just played a note so sweet he might shatter Mrs Wedermeyers glasses And if

there are a mother and father who think

that child is theirs may they be forgiven even if the child shining in their eyes

is moving his fingers slightly out of rhythm

even if hes never led the bell curve in his life In consecutive measures of almost unison

its easy to believe these children are musicians

Their parents do so stirred by Ode to Joy they rise to their feet with the final phrase

clapping from the darkened auditorium

at once as one heroically like the parents theyve meant to be

EK NAYA SAFAR

Mubarak ho apko zindgi ka naya safar

Naya hai sheher nai hai dagar

Chut gaye kuch rishte purane

But donrsquot worry yaar mil jayenge naye diwane

Kuch tum jaise khuch tum se alag

So just smile and start a new life

Dosti yaari ko zara side mai rakh ke

Edhar gaur famiye janab

Course toh tumne acha chuna hai

Kuch socha hai ya ese hi liya hai

College mai admission jab hota hai

Toh andar khushi ke fuvare futne lagte hai

Lekin syllabus o dekh kar yeh bhi dagmagane lagte hai

Mana CP paas hai vahi maat ghumte rehna

Varna paper mai cafeacute ki menu sheet hi likhte rehna

Donrsquot take a chill pill coz yaha ki teachers hai thori strict

Just because they want you to be the best

Ab kya kare college ka har din mamuli nahi hota

Aur 9 se 4 sirf parai nahi hoti

Gumo firo esh karo but parna na bhulo

Mana es saal kuch zyada hi speed breakers hai

But the best part is hum sab bhi toh sath hai

PONDERINGAll of humanity is but a set of numbers You and I

are nothing more than a statisticJust think about any decision you had to take

recently No matter your choice you might findyourself ending up only as an infinitesimal

decimal in the final percentage of a statisticianrsquosdiscourse Let me give you an example pertinent

to the world we live in today Say yoursquore arepublican and have to decide whether to wear a

mask or not Naturally your political instinctmight warn you against it However you might

still be inclined to wear one because yoursquoregenuinely scared about what the ldquoliberalsrdquo have

to say about the SARS-COV-2 Now now letrsquos notgo off-topic here I know you might be wondering

what yoursquod do if you were in a Republicanrsquos shoesBut thatrsquos not the point

In the end it seldom matters whether you are arepublican or a liberal especially in situations

like these What matters in the end is if you didgo out without wearing that infuriating

smothering mask And if you contracted thewretched virus because of it If yes hard luck

Yoursquore nothing more than one of the 841 millionpeople who have it Thatrsquos all that people aroundthe world will see Not your gender not your ageand certainly not your political belief Of course

there will be studies about the correlation ofthese factors with the incidence rate of the

infections but thatrsquos another story altogether andnot one possibly as broad as the one we talk

aboutMoreover the correlation must not be

confused with causation Now perhaps thatrsquosa story for another day But think about it thisway whether you go to college or drop out of

high school whether you choose to live ordecide to die no matter the decision no

matter your inclination or choice whetheryou like it or not you will be nothing more

than a statisticIt might sound a bit gloomy to be honestWhen I first thought about it I felt almostinsignificant Like a tiny speck of dust in a

galaxy of stars Alas isnrsquot that all that we arethough

A pale blue dot in an ocean of stars Ourplanet one among millions or perhaps

billions of others All 78 billion of us fightingfor a place in the world knowing full well we

canrsquot all possibly have it It might makeanyone feel overwhelmed but therersquos

something about that that is so challenging itis almost inspiring We all know statistics andwe all know life But the true beauty of life lies

in the ability to defy statistics Only onequestion remains are you up for the

challenge

It wonrsquot be any exaggeration If itrsquos said that tools of statistician are used in almost all fields ofcalculation

Be it research finance sports marketing sales health care or population countingIt is a crucial process behind How we make discoveries in science

Making decisions or claiming predictions It plays a crucial play in all situationsStats is involved everywhere from collection to interpretation From explanation to

presentationStatistics helps avoiding a wide variety of analytical traps By making sure that study follow

apt methods in all aspectsChallenging your own assumptions Or drawing data-based conclusions

Statistics is always there Making things crisp and clear

It always seems impossible until it is done

If it makes you happyit doesnt have to make sense to others

When you cant find the sunshinebe the sunshine

Either you run the day or let the day run you

When you focus on the goodthe good gets better

It takes the same energy to worry as it doesto be positive so use your energy to thinkpositive and positive things will happen

The one thing that doesnt abide by majority rule is a persons conscience

Make happiness a priority and be gentle with yourself in the process

College the best start to unfold lifes beauty

Goodbye to the mistakes weve made remember the laughs weve shared

Will never forget these years

People are capable at anytime in their lives of doing what they dream of

productivity and replace it by degree ofpresence

and those who mind dont matter

Having charismatic and vibrant self is key tohappiness optimism and being systematic is

a way to success

When it rains look for rainbows when its dark look for stars

Believe you can and youre halfway there Fall in love with the process of becoming thevery best version of yourself

Rise above the storm and you will find sunshine

Do not change the path in front of your dreamswhatever happens do not break those dreams in yourmind You will find difficulties on every step but do

not leave the ground just to choose the stars

If people are trying to pull you down then you arealready better than them Just focus on your energies and

keep doing your best You will find happiness ) One more thing IF YOU DONT BETYOU CANT

WIN

Your time is limited so donrsquot waste it livingsomeone elsersquos life Donrsquot be trapped by

I know that I will look back on these days as being the happiest of my life

May every sunrise bring you hopeMay every sunset bring you peace

If you dont believe in yourself thenno one is going to believe in you So

Believe in Yourself

Be who you are and say what you feelbecause those who mind donrsquot matter and

those who matter donrsquot mind

Success is liking yourself liking what you do and liking how you do it

Happiness is a by-product of an effort to make someone else happy

If you are not willing to risk the unusual you will have to settle for the ordinary

Always keep it clean simple and precise

Hustle until you no longer have to introduce yourself

Dream it Wish it Do it

There are no limits to what you can accomplish except the limits you place

on your own thinking

The greatness of humanity is not in being human but in being humane

You will be exactly as happy as you decide

One thing to learn from the sun is thatwhenever a cloud tries to hinder itslight it finds its own path to shine

Excellence is not achieved - it is aspired to and trekked towards The tougher the trek

the better the views

I think the day we figure out everythingabout our lives is the day we die

Finding your magic can be scary but owning it will be EUPHORIA

An approximate answer to the right problem is worth a good deal more than

an exact answer to an approximate problem

Our greatest weakness lies in giving up The most certain way to succeed is always to try just one more time

The aim is to live happily heal throughevery situation and learn everything new

with every step taken

Believe in progress not perfection

Whenever a method of marketing is thought thepercentage of people to get influenced the agegroup to target the kind of offers to be laid downare all done through statistics You might haveheard that now data is the new oil that means lifeis all surrounded with data and for the data andthe demand for its upkeep and analysis the dataanalysts are required and in big organizationswho actually target all age groups and sell allkinds of products on a large scale have a largedatabase not only of the customers but also oftheir n number of employees So an organizationis incomplete without data and where there isdata there is statistics In fact I would say thatan organization isnrsquot an organization if they donot have data and its proper upkeep in such acase the company will surely drain out so thisactually proves how important statistics hasbecome in the business point of view Thebanking sector canrsquot function without statisticsand this banking business forms the backbone ofthe country since all the customers of the bankhave loads of data for a particular bank account

Statistics is the science of learning from dataStatistical knowledge helps an individual to usethe proper methods for collecting data employthe correct analysis and present the resultseffectively Statistical analysis is thus used inalmost all fields to make sense out of the vastamount of data that is available Thus statisticalmethodologies are not only useful in drawingimportant results but also play a significant role inproducing new findings and understanding thework of others One such field which has wideuse of the statistical techniques andmethodologies is the Insurance Sector Insuranceis basically the business of risk as it involves thetransfer of risk from one party to another

The main incoming and outgoing source ofincome in the business of insurance is throughpremiums and claims respectively Manystatistical models are used to model claimsand losses Parameters for these distributionsare estimated using Method of momentMaximum likelihood estimates etc and thenGoodness of fit testis applied to check howwell our distribution fits to the data Timeseries model plays an important role inforecasting future values Statistics is used toanswer the most important questions for theinsurance industry What percentage ofpolicies are expected to payout How muchmoney the company must expect to payout inclaims Different methods of data collectioneither in primary or secondary form are usedto determine the required reserves premiumand future predictions Apart from this manystatistical methods for eg Linear modelmethod which uses regression as the maintool in determining the factors affectingpremiums Loss distribution method in whichhistogram and bar graphs are made tocompare different categories and complexstatistical tools such as Ruin Theory and Run-off triangles are used to develop newproducts absorb and evaluate risk and ruinwhen balancing claims reserves andpremiums Thus statistics plays anirreplaceable role in the life cycle ofinsurance business for both life and non-life insurance

Statistics help in

Measuring the stability of drugs-II) Production of drugs according to demandsIII) Effectiveness of drugsIV) Quality control of drugs V) Marketing of drugs VI) Testing the side effects of the drug with thehelp of data VII) Going through the procedure of approvaland public distribution of drugs

Statistics in developing a drug

A lot of statistics tools are used duringproduction clinical trials and marketing andpublic distribution of drugs-1 Average (mean median and mode) Usedduring experiments like stability testingcombination of chemicals and checking acidity orbasicity of solutions to calculate mean averageresults2 Standard deviation and variance It is ameasure of testing precision Can be used toevaluate precision at various points in a processor to evaluate the precision between two differentmethods of the experiment3 Q test for rejecting data It is used to checkoutliers in data ie to check unusual deviation ina data set to see if it can be statistically rejected

4 Confidence limits It helps in finding theprobability of the true value being within acalculable range It makes use of multiplyingstandard deviation with studentrsquos t-factor thatdetermines the confidence interval of theobservation at the stated confidence level5 t F Chi-square and other tests Helps incomparing the results of two data sets For egside effects of different medication in the samepopulation6 Correlation Helps to detect the relationbetween two attributes of a data for eg howthe effect of a medicine increases or decreasesdue to the change in dosage how increase ordecrease in temperature affects the stability ofcertain medication

Clinical Trials

Clinical trials are research studies that evaluatenew ways to improve treatments and quality oflife for people with disease and in presentscenario global pandemic COVID-19 Resultsfrom Clinical trials help develop

1 New drugsvaccines 2 New diagnostic tools 3 New clinical procedures

Participants volunteer for clinical trials

(28)

In this method of stratified random sampling isused to divide the volunteers into different stratabased on shared attributes or characteristicssuch as gender medical conditions and otherspecifics These stratarsquos are used in differentphases of clinical trials

Clinical trials have 4 phases

Before trial begins volunteers need tounderstand the potential benefits and potentialrisks before participating in clinical trials thatrsquoswhy pre-clinical phase is conducted to test thenew treatment on animals and healthyvolunteers This part comes under descriptivestatistics where we are using the observed(benefits and risks) for further research Phase 1- In this new treatment is tested for thefirst time to know how treatment affects thebody to determine a safe dose range forvaccine and their side effects It involvesrelatively 20-80 volunteers Stats approach-Association analysis is performed to capture thecorrelations between drug therapeuticindications and side-effects In order to achievethis goal we adopted Fishers exact test whichis a widely used approach for measuring thesignificance of the association between twonominal variables For example to test thesignificance of the association between drugtherapeutic indications A and drug side effect B

Phase 2- The study involves how well a newtreatment or combination of treatment goes wellwith certain types of patients It involves up to300 patient volunteers For example out oftotal cancer patients half of the patients areselected randomly and are given cancertreatment along with new vaccine and other halfare given cancer treatment along with standardtreatment of corona virus Now side effects inboth the cases are noted Aim is to determinewhich combination of treatment will have lessside effects Chi- square test is used tocompare the side effects in both the cases Phase 3- In this phase effectiveness of addinga new treatment to the standard treatment isstudied 100-1000 volunteers participate in thisphase Stats approach- Participants arerandomly split into two groups 1st group(treatment group) receives the standardtreatment + new vaccine and 2nd group (controlgroup) receives standard treatment + placebo(a treatment that looks identical to the newtreatment but contains no active ingredient) Inthis phase mean time taken to develop antibodies in both the groups are compared usingZ-test (Test of significance for difference inmeans)

Phase 4- In this phase no volunteers areinvolved researchersrsquo monitor drug safety andeffectiveness It involves optimal usage

We all live in the digital era of hightechnologies smart devices and mobilesolutions Data is an essential aspect of anybusiness Itrsquos crucial to gather process andanalyse the data flow and to do that as quicklyand accurately as possible Nowadays the datavolume can be large which makes informationhandling time-consuming and expensive Dueto this precise reason the data science industryis growing at a rapid pace creating newpossibilities as well as opportunities and pythonis one of the solutions to understand andanalyse such big data sets It is a cross-functional language that has lots of advantagesto offer This object-oriented programminglanguage is commonly used to streamline largecomplex data sets Not only this it has a highreadability that helps data analysts to save timeby typing fewer lines of code for accomplishingthe tasks Therefore itrsquos not surprising at allthat it is claimed to be the preferredprogramming language for data science

Let me tell you why Python is a number oneoption for data analysis-

By Tanisha Gupta ( 3rd Year )

gtgt Easy to LearnBeing involved in development for web servicesmobile apps as well as coding Yes it is one ofthe most famous language characteristics Morethan that a low and thus fast learning curve isthe next pre-eminence of Python whencomparing it with older languages on offer

gtgt Well-SupportedHaving the experience of using some tools forfree you probably know that it is a challenge toget decent support but thatrsquos not the case withPython Despite the high simplicity there can besituations when you still need help with PythonBeing in widespread use like in industries oracademic areas Python has a broad array ofhelpful libraries with tons of helpful and supportmaterials The great benefit is that all thelibraries are available at no cost

gtgt ScalabilityThis Pythonrsquos feature is closely connected withthe previous option Comparing with otherlanguages like R Java python is much fasterand more scalable Therefore it is good invarious fields that can solve a wide range ofproblems Thatrsquos why many companies havemigrated to Python

(34)

gtgt Huge Libraries CollectionAs I have already mentioned Python is one ofthe most supported languages nowadays Ithas a long list of totally free libraries availablefor all the users Thatrsquos a key factor that givesa strong push for Python If yoursquore involved inthe field more likely you are acquainted withsuch names as Pandas SciPy Stats ModelsMatplotlib etc libraries that are intensivelyutilized in the data science community Hereyou can easily find a solution needed forhassle-free work without additional expenses

gtgt Graphics and Visualization ToolsItrsquos a well-known fact that visual information ismuch easier to understand operate andremember So here is some good news foryou There is a pack of diverse visualizationoptions available that makes python a must-have tool not only for data analysis but for alldata science You can make the data moreaccessible and easier to use by means ofcreating various charts and graphics as wellas interactive plots Always remember that thesuccess of your business directly depends onthe ability to extract knowledge and insightsfrom data to make effective strategicdecisions stay competitive and makeprogress and Python is the internationallyclaimed programming language to help us inhandling our data in a better manner for avariety of causes

ldquoCollege life is known as one of the most memorable years of astudentrsquos life exposing them to new experiences like meeting new

people learning new things exploring places etcrdquo

A registered clinical psychologist in Honk Kongnamed Zanonia Chiu said - ldquoGoing to school hadbeen a struggle for some children (withdepression) prior to the pandemic but at leastthey had school routines to stick with Now thatschools are closed some lock themselves upinside their rooms for weeks refusing to takeshowers eat or leave their beds For somechildren with depression there will beconsiderable difficulties adjusting back to normallife when college resumesrdquo and according to anonline survey conducted with the study periodfrom April 2020 to May 2020 - Total 531372 and 243 had symptoms of depressionanxiety and stress respectively with varyingseverities (N=727)The conclusion of the surveyindicated that COVID-19 is building psychologicaldistress among vulnerable college students asthey are forced to stay home along withworsening financial situations lifestyle changesfamily situations and time spent on variousactivities

Sounds so interesting and happening right Itis true indeed but along with stressful timeaside Along with the perks of enjoyingfreedom more than ever there comesacademic pressure tasks of separation fromfamilies career building futureresponsibilities etc Boarding on with thecollege life is a stressful time for manystudents thereby affecting their mental healthMental health problems are very commonamong college students and have been anincreasing concern However the COVID-19pandemic situation has brought this vulnerablepopulation into renewed focus Following thepandemic schools colleges offices andalmost every place that involved humaninteraction was shut It is important to note thatcollegeschool or even a normal routine areimportant coping mechanisms for youngpeople with mental health issues and wheneverything is shut down they lose an anchor inlife and their symptoms could relapse

Mental health among students is a big concernhowever ldquoUNTREATEDrdquo mental illnesses are amuch bigger and exponentially growingconcern Reaching out is an important step formental health issues to be addressed andtreated but reach out to who This is the pointwhere our institution should take over Collegesplay a big role in this stage Colleges doaddress this issue through means of orientationsessions and workshops but there is still a needto address mental health more directly Themethods to address mental health issuesshould be accessible feasible and affordablefor the students For example at NorthwesternUniversity student feedback led orientationenabled organizers to shift their focus fromexpert speakers to student testimonials Meansto address the issue vary from traditionalpresentations and panel discussions to roleplays small group discussions etc Herestudents learn how to recognize mental illnesssymptoms where to find resources andsupport and how to talk to friends who mightbe struggling

The findings of this study highlighted theurgent need to develop interventions andpreventive strategies to address the mentalhealth of college students Another InterviewSurvey study conducted by the Journal ofMedical Internet Research highlighted that of195 students 138 (71) indicated increasedstress and anxiety due to the COVID-19outbreak Multiple stressors were identified thatcontributed to the increased levels of stressanxiety and depressive thoughts amongstudents These included fear and worry abouttheir own health and of their loved ones(177195 91 reported negative impacts ofthe pandemic) difficulty in concentrating(173195 89) disruptions to sleepingpatterns (168195 86) decreased socialinteractions due to physical distancing(167195 86) and increased concerns onacademic performance (159195 82) Tocope with stress and anxiety participants havesought support from others and helpedthemselves by adopting either negative orpositive coping mechanisms It is important toknow that creating awareness about any issueis never enough action is what is neededTaking leave from workschool because of a fluor a fracture is acceptable and might even helpin the process of cure and healing howevertaking time off because of stress from a mentalillness such as anxiety or depressionunfortunately is not

lsquoOnline classrsquo is a term which most of us werenrsquotfamiliar with Before this pandemic we neverthought of getting education at home Covid hasaffected all of our lives In past pursuingeducation meant going to the schoolcollege Butnow the whole scenario has changed Childrenare studying and attending classes from homeJust like there are two sides of a coin onlineclasses also have some advantages anddisadvantages

Starting from the advantages it saves time forboth students and teachers as they donrsquot haveto travel All they have to do is to join throughtheir mobiles or laptops Secondly studentsdonrsquot have to necessarily buy books from theshops like they had to do in offline classesbecause they are given pdfs from which they canstudy Therefore it saves money Third it can beattended from anywhere in the world Unlike inthe offline classes where we had to gather at aparticular place Fourth computer basedpractical can be easily understood as studentscan share their screen with teachers Also it iseasy for teachers to explain a topic with the helpof pictures or animations which can be easilyfound on the internet

Last but not the least Parents can keep an eyeon their children whether they are studyingproperly or not

Apart from advantages it has somedisadvantages too First sitting beside thecomputer or mobile for hours affects the eyesightof both students and teachers Doctors arereporting many cases of eyestrain amongchildren since the online classes have startedSecondly students are becoming lazy as theydonrsquot have to go out of their home Like theproverb lsquoAll work and no play makes Jack a dullboyrsquo is really happening Third students canbunk in the online classes easily As they haveno fear of punishment they learned to disobeyand disrespect teachers Fourth students havebeen given lots of assignments as a result ofwhich most students are copying othersassignments and are not learning anything newFifth it is very difficult to communicate asteachers cannot give attention to each studentLastly it can be concluded that no matter howthe classes are being held a student must bededicated and sincere towards their studiesAfter all onersquos future depends on what they do intheir present

An actuary is a business executive professionally trained in the mathematical sciences Actuariesspecialize in the evaluation of financial riskmdashmost often in the context of life health and casualtyinsurance where they design analyse and refine varied programs to meet the insurance needs ofsociety A growing number of actuaries work in the areas of assetliability management and risk managementSome of these actuaries are employed by investment and consulting firms others are employed byinsurance companies

Actuaries have been called financial architects and social mathematicians because their combinedanalytical and business skills help solve a growing variety of financial and social problems Theactuarial profession is a demanding yet rewarding career choice

In a world bombarded with numerical information informed decisions rely on the ability to separatefact from fiction by applying valid statistical analyses and visualizations Statisticians can providecrucial guidance in determining what information is reliable and which predictions may be trustedThey often help search for clues to the solution of a scientific mystery and sometimes keepinvestigators from being misled by false impressions

Thousands of statisticians work in medicine law agriculture public policy marketing manufacturingengineering and other fields in the social and natural sciences The diversity of applications is anexciting aspect of the field and is one more reason why the demand for well-trained statisticianscontinues to be strong

Touching Your HeartWith Some

Poetry

Contributed by Dr Komal Goel

by Anubis the Philosomancer

(41)

Contributed by Dr Meenu Goel

The curtain lifts on Bryant Elementary Schools Spring Recorder Recital Ninety third-graders fumble with their instruments take a breath

and blow Their parents braced breathe too

as Hot Crossed Buns emerges a little scattershot -- the Normal Distribution brought to life

By Go Tell Aunt Rhodie the audience

is moved by their sheer pretty-goodness though one kid knocks her music to the floor

and another squeaks to demonstrate

the tail two standard deviations below the mean The curve implies

that somewhere on stage another kid

just played a note so sweet he might shatter Mrs Wedermeyers glasses And if

there are a mother and father who think

that child is theirs may they be forgiven even if the child shining in their eyes

is moving his fingers slightly out of rhythm

even if hes never led the bell curve in his life In consecutive measures of almost unison

its easy to believe these children are musicians

Their parents do so stirred by Ode to Joy they rise to their feet with the final phrase

clapping from the darkened auditorium

at once as one heroically like the parents theyve meant to be

EK NAYA SAFAR

Mubarak ho apko zindgi ka naya safar

Naya hai sheher nai hai dagar

Chut gaye kuch rishte purane

But donrsquot worry yaar mil jayenge naye diwane

Kuch tum jaise khuch tum se alag

So just smile and start a new life

Dosti yaari ko zara side mai rakh ke

Edhar gaur famiye janab

Course toh tumne acha chuna hai

Kuch socha hai ya ese hi liya hai

College mai admission jab hota hai

Toh andar khushi ke fuvare futne lagte hai

Lekin syllabus o dekh kar yeh bhi dagmagane lagte hai

Mana CP paas hai vahi maat ghumte rehna

Varna paper mai cafeacute ki menu sheet hi likhte rehna

Donrsquot take a chill pill coz yaha ki teachers hai thori strict

Just because they want you to be the best

Ab kya kare college ka har din mamuli nahi hota

Aur 9 se 4 sirf parai nahi hoti

Gumo firo esh karo but parna na bhulo

Mana es saal kuch zyada hi speed breakers hai

But the best part is hum sab bhi toh sath hai

PONDERINGAll of humanity is but a set of numbers You and I

are nothing more than a statisticJust think about any decision you had to take

recently No matter your choice you might findyourself ending up only as an infinitesimal

decimal in the final percentage of a statisticianrsquosdiscourse Let me give you an example pertinent

to the world we live in today Say yoursquore arepublican and have to decide whether to wear a

mask or not Naturally your political instinctmight warn you against it However you might

still be inclined to wear one because yoursquoregenuinely scared about what the ldquoliberalsrdquo have

to say about the SARS-COV-2 Now now letrsquos notgo off-topic here I know you might be wondering

what yoursquod do if you were in a Republicanrsquos shoesBut thatrsquos not the point

In the end it seldom matters whether you are arepublican or a liberal especially in situations

like these What matters in the end is if you didgo out without wearing that infuriating

smothering mask And if you contracted thewretched virus because of it If yes hard luck

Yoursquore nothing more than one of the 841 millionpeople who have it Thatrsquos all that people aroundthe world will see Not your gender not your ageand certainly not your political belief Of course

there will be studies about the correlation ofthese factors with the incidence rate of the

infections but thatrsquos another story altogether andnot one possibly as broad as the one we talk

aboutMoreover the correlation must not be

confused with causation Now perhaps thatrsquosa story for another day But think about it thisway whether you go to college or drop out of

high school whether you choose to live ordecide to die no matter the decision no

matter your inclination or choice whetheryou like it or not you will be nothing more

than a statisticIt might sound a bit gloomy to be honestWhen I first thought about it I felt almostinsignificant Like a tiny speck of dust in a

galaxy of stars Alas isnrsquot that all that we arethough

A pale blue dot in an ocean of stars Ourplanet one among millions or perhaps

billions of others All 78 billion of us fightingfor a place in the world knowing full well we

canrsquot all possibly have it It might makeanyone feel overwhelmed but therersquos

something about that that is so challenging itis almost inspiring We all know statistics andwe all know life But the true beauty of life lies

in the ability to defy statistics Only onequestion remains are you up for the

challenge

It wonrsquot be any exaggeration If itrsquos said that tools of statistician are used in almost all fields ofcalculation

Be it research finance sports marketing sales health care or population countingIt is a crucial process behind How we make discoveries in science

Making decisions or claiming predictions It plays a crucial play in all situationsStats is involved everywhere from collection to interpretation From explanation to

presentationStatistics helps avoiding a wide variety of analytical traps By making sure that study follow

apt methods in all aspectsChallenging your own assumptions Or drawing data-based conclusions

Statistics is always there Making things crisp and clear

It always seems impossible until it is done

If it makes you happyit doesnt have to make sense to others

When you cant find the sunshinebe the sunshine

Either you run the day or let the day run you

When you focus on the goodthe good gets better

It takes the same energy to worry as it doesto be positive so use your energy to thinkpositive and positive things will happen

The one thing that doesnt abide by majority rule is a persons conscience

Make happiness a priority and be gentle with yourself in the process

College the best start to unfold lifes beauty

Goodbye to the mistakes weve made remember the laughs weve shared

Will never forget these years

People are capable at anytime in their lives of doing what they dream of

Believe in Yourself

Be who you are and say what you feelbecause those who mind donrsquot matter and

those who matter donrsquot mind

Success is liking yourself liking what you do and liking how you do it

Happiness is a by-product of an effort to make someone else happy

If you are not willing to risk the unusual you will have to settle for the ordinary

Always keep it clean simple and precise

Hustle until you no longer have to introduce yourself

Dream it Wish it Do it

Your energy introduces you evenbefore you speak

Your mistake dont define your character Itswhat you do after you make mistake that

makes all the difference

Thats What ~She

Life is what passes by while youare busy making other plans

Let us be grateful to people who make ushappy they are the charming gardeners who

make our souls blossom

Confidence is not substitute forclarity to be successful you need

clarity not confidence

Attitude is a little thing that makesa big difference

Be who you are and say what you feelbecause those who mind dont matterand those who matter dont mindrdquo

Ritika SundraniSuniti GuptaNo matter how tough may seem the climb

Keep moving Keep fighting Perseverance and patience go a long way Because for the sunrise even the longest

nights make way

All I want is to have the world dominatedby women

Because men will not leave their position sowhy will we demand equality

Sometimes the most beautiful things happen in the most unexpected waysI still canrsquot get over the fact that my 3 years-long and the beautiful journeycame to an end I never thought that I would make such beautiful bonds incollege be it with the teachers or my classmates Mata Sundri College will always have a special place in my heart and in mylife It is this place that made me realize my true potential I entered thecollege with almost no expectations But looking back at the time I nowfeel that those years were the most special and the most beautiful onesThe kind of love and support I received from all the teachers cannot bedescribed in words The personal connection which I still have with myteachers would be missing had I been in some other college I amextremely grateful to them It was because of them that I started loving mysubject Statistics All the hard work put in by my teachers and by myselfpaid off in the end Never did I imagine that I would become the Universitytopper I still feel that I am living in a dream

It is one of my greatest accomplishments Receiving the Medal from theHonrsquoble Education Minister Shri Ramesh Pokhriyal was a matter of pride Ifeel so happy seeing my parents and teachers being proud of me I surelyknow that whenever Irsquoll need some help in the future my teachers willalways be there to guide me The only regret is that we didnrsquot get a chance to greet the teachers and ourfellow classmates one last time due to the pandemic But keeping thataside I will always cherish my journey Thank you Mata Sundri College forthe amazing experience

Statistics is the science of learning from dataStatistical knowledge helps an individual to usethe proper methods for collecting data employthe correct analysis and present the resultseffectively Statistical analysis is thus used inalmost all fields to make sense out of the vastamount of data that is available Thus statisticalmethodologies are not only useful in drawingimportant results but also play a significant role inproducing new findings and understanding thework of others One such field which has wideuse of the statistical techniques andmethodologies is the Insurance Sector Insuranceis basically the business of risk as it involves thetransfer of risk from one party to another

The main incoming and outgoing source ofincome in the business of insurance is throughpremiums and claims respectively Manystatistical models are used to model claimsand losses Parameters for these distributionsare estimated using Method of momentMaximum likelihood estimates etc and thenGoodness of fit testis applied to check howwell our distribution fits to the data Timeseries model plays an important role inforecasting future values Statistics is used toanswer the most important questions for theinsurance industry What percentage ofpolicies are expected to payout How muchmoney the company must expect to payout inclaims Different methods of data collectioneither in primary or secondary form are usedto determine the required reserves premiumand future predictions Apart from this manystatistical methods for eg Linear modelmethod which uses regression as the maintool in determining the factors affectingpremiums Loss distribution method in whichhistogram and bar graphs are made tocompare different categories and complexstatistical tools such as Ruin Theory and Run-off triangles are used to develop newproducts absorb and evaluate risk and ruinwhen balancing claims reserves andpremiums Thus statistics plays anirreplaceable role in the life cycle ofinsurance business for both life and non-life insurance

Statistics help in

Measuring the stability of drugs-II) Production of drugs according to demandsIII) Effectiveness of drugsIV) Quality control of drugs V) Marketing of drugs VI) Testing the side effects of the drug with thehelp of data VII) Going through the procedure of approvaland public distribution of drugs

Statistics in developing a drug

A lot of statistics tools are used duringproduction clinical trials and marketing andpublic distribution of drugs-1 Average (mean median and mode) Usedduring experiments like stability testingcombination of chemicals and checking acidity orbasicity of solutions to calculate mean averageresults2 Standard deviation and variance It is ameasure of testing precision Can be used toevaluate precision at various points in a processor to evaluate the precision between two differentmethods of the experiment3 Q test for rejecting data It is used to checkoutliers in data ie to check unusual deviation ina data set to see if it can be statistically rejected

4 Confidence limits It helps in finding theprobability of the true value being within acalculable range It makes use of multiplyingstandard deviation with studentrsquos t-factor thatdetermines the confidence interval of theobservation at the stated confidence level5 t F Chi-square and other tests Helps incomparing the results of two data sets For egside effects of different medication in the samepopulation6 Correlation Helps to detect the relationbetween two attributes of a data for eg howthe effect of a medicine increases or decreasesdue to the change in dosage how increase ordecrease in temperature affects the stability ofcertain medication

Clinical Trials

Clinical trials are research studies that evaluatenew ways to improve treatments and quality oflife for people with disease and in presentscenario global pandemic COVID-19 Resultsfrom Clinical trials help develop

1 New drugsvaccines 2 New diagnostic tools 3 New clinical procedures

Participants volunteer for clinical trials

(28)

In this method of stratified random sampling isused to divide the volunteers into different stratabased on shared attributes or characteristicssuch as gender medical conditions and otherspecifics These stratarsquos are used in differentphases of clinical trials

Clinical trials have 4 phases

Before trial begins volunteers need tounderstand the potential benefits and potentialrisks before participating in clinical trials thatrsquoswhy pre-clinical phase is conducted to test thenew treatment on animals and healthyvolunteers This part comes under descriptivestatistics where we are using the observed(benefits and risks) for further research Phase 1- In this new treatment is tested for thefirst time to know how treatment affects thebody to determine a safe dose range forvaccine and their side effects It involvesrelatively 20-80 volunteers Stats approach-Association analysis is performed to capture thecorrelations between drug therapeuticindications and side-effects In order to achievethis goal we adopted Fishers exact test whichis a widely used approach for measuring thesignificance of the association between twonominal variables For example to test thesignificance of the association between drugtherapeutic indications A and drug side effect B

Phase 2- The study involves how well a newtreatment or combination of treatment goes wellwith certain types of patients It involves up to300 patient volunteers For example out oftotal cancer patients half of the patients areselected randomly and are given cancertreatment along with new vaccine and other halfare given cancer treatment along with standardtreatment of corona virus Now side effects inboth the cases are noted Aim is to determinewhich combination of treatment will have lessside effects Chi- square test is used tocompare the side effects in both the cases Phase 3- In this phase effectiveness of addinga new treatment to the standard treatment isstudied 100-1000 volunteers participate in thisphase Stats approach- Participants arerandomly split into two groups 1st group(treatment group) receives the standardtreatment + new vaccine and 2nd group (controlgroup) receives standard treatment + placebo(a treatment that looks identical to the newtreatment but contains no active ingredient) Inthis phase mean time taken to develop antibodies in both the groups are compared usingZ-test (Test of significance for difference inmeans)

Phase 4- In this phase no volunteers areinvolved researchersrsquo monitor drug safety andeffectiveness It involves optimal usage

A registered clinical psychologist in Honk Kongnamed Zanonia Chiu said - ldquoGoing to school hadbeen a struggle for some children (withdepression) prior to the pandemic but at leastthey had school routines to stick with Now thatschools are closed some lock themselves upinside their rooms for weeks refusing to takeshowers eat or leave their beds For somechildren with depression there will beconsiderable difficulties adjusting back to normallife when college resumesrdquo and according to anonline survey conducted with the study periodfrom April 2020 to May 2020 - Total 531372 and 243 had symptoms of depressionanxiety and stress respectively with varyingseverities (N=727)The conclusion of the surveyindicated that COVID-19 is building psychologicaldistress among vulnerable college students asthey are forced to stay home along withworsening financial situations lifestyle changesfamily situations and time spent on variousactivities

lsquoOnline classrsquo is a term which most of us werenrsquotfamiliar with Before this pandemic we neverthought of getting education at home Covid hasaffected all of our lives In past pursuingeducation meant going to the schoolcollege Butnow the whole scenario has changed Childrenare studying and attending classes from homeJust like there are two sides of a coin onlineclasses also have some advantages anddisadvantages

Starting from the advantages it saves time forboth students and teachers as they donrsquot haveto travel All they have to do is to join throughtheir mobiles or laptops Secondly studentsdonrsquot have to necessarily buy books from theshops like they had to do in offline classesbecause they are given pdfs from which they canstudy Therefore it saves money Third it can beattended from anywhere in the world Unlike inthe offline classes where we had to gather at aparticular place Fourth computer basedpractical can be easily understood as studentscan share their screen with teachers Also it iseasy for teachers to explain a topic with the helpof pictures or animations which can be easilyfound on the internet

Last but not the least Parents can keep an eyeon their children whether they are studyingproperly or not

Apart from advantages it has somedisadvantages too First sitting beside thecomputer or mobile for hours affects the eyesightof both students and teachers Doctors arereporting many cases of eyestrain amongchildren since the online classes have startedSecondly students are becoming lazy as theydonrsquot have to go out of their home Like theproverb lsquoAll work and no play makes Jack a dullboyrsquo is really happening Third students canbunk in the online classes easily As they haveno fear of punishment they learned to disobeyand disrespect teachers Fourth students havebeen given lots of assignments as a result ofwhich most students are copying othersassignments and are not learning anything newFifth it is very difficult to communicate asteachers cannot give attention to each studentLastly it can be concluded that no matter howthe classes are being held a student must bededicated and sincere towards their studiesAfter all onersquos future depends on what they do intheir present

An actuary is a business executive professionally trained in the mathematical sciences Actuariesspecialize in the evaluation of financial riskmdashmost often in the context of life health and casualtyinsurance where they design analyse and refine varied programs to meet the insurance needs ofsociety A growing number of actuaries work in the areas of assetliability management and risk managementSome of these actuaries are employed by investment and consulting firms others are employed byinsurance companies

Actuaries have been called financial architects and social mathematicians because their combinedanalytical and business skills help solve a growing variety of financial and social problems Theactuarial profession is a demanding yet rewarding career choice

In a world bombarded with numerical information informed decisions rely on the ability to separatefact from fiction by applying valid statistical analyses and visualizations Statisticians can providecrucial guidance in determining what information is reliable and which predictions may be trustedThey often help search for clues to the solution of a scientific mystery and sometimes keepinvestigators from being misled by false impressions

Thousands of statisticians work in medicine law agriculture public policy marketing manufacturingengineering and other fields in the social and natural sciences The diversity of applications is anexciting aspect of the field and is one more reason why the demand for well-trained statisticianscontinues to be strong

Contributed by Dr Meenu Goel

The curtain lifts on Bryant Elementary Schools Spring Recorder Recital Ninety third-graders fumble with their instruments take a breath

and blow Their parents braced breathe too

as Hot Crossed Buns emerges a little scattershot -- the Normal Distribution brought to life

By Go Tell Aunt Rhodie the audience

is moved by their sheer pretty-goodness though one kid knocks her music to the floor

and another squeaks to demonstrate

the tail two standard deviations below the mean The curve implies

that somewhere on stage another kid

just played a note so sweet he might shatter Mrs Wedermeyers glasses And if

there are a mother and father who think

that child is theirs may they be forgiven even if the child shining in their eyes

is moving his fingers slightly out of rhythm

even if hes never led the bell curve in his life In consecutive measures of almost unison

its easy to believe these children are musicians

Their parents do so stirred by Ode to Joy they rise to their feet with the final phrase

clapping from the darkened auditorium

at once as one heroically like the parents theyve meant to be

But donrsquot worry yaar mil jayenge naye diwane

Kuch tum jaise khuch tum se alag

So just smile and start a new life

Dosti yaari ko zara side mai rakh ke

Edhar gaur famiye janab

Course toh tumne acha chuna hai

Kuch socha hai ya ese hi liya hai

College mai admission jab hota hai

Toh andar khushi ke fuvare futne lagte hai

Lekin syllabus o dekh kar yeh bhi dagmagane lagte hai

Mana CP paas hai vahi maat ghumte rehna

Varna paper mai cafeacute ki menu sheet hi likhte rehna

Donrsquot take a chill pill coz yaha ki teachers hai thori strict

Just because they want you to be the best

Ab kya kare college ka har din mamuli nahi hota

Aur 9 se 4 sirf parai nahi hoti

Gumo firo esh karo but parna na bhulo

Mana es saal kuch zyada hi speed breakers hai

But the best part is hum sab bhi toh sath hai

PONDERINGAll of humanity is but a set of numbers You and I

are nothing more than a statisticJust think about any decision you had to take

recently No matter your choice you might findyourself ending up only as an infinitesimal

decimal in the final percentage of a statisticianrsquosdiscourse Let me give you an example pertinent

to the world we live in today Say yoursquore arepublican and have to decide whether to wear a

mask or not Naturally your political instinctmight warn you against it However you might

still be inclined to wear one because yoursquoregenuinely scared about what the ldquoliberalsrdquo have

to say about the SARS-COV-2 Now now letrsquos notgo off-topic here I know you might be wondering

what yoursquod do if you were in a Republicanrsquos shoesBut thatrsquos not the point

In the end it seldom matters whether you are arepublican or a liberal especially in situations

like these What matters in the end is if you didgo out without wearing that infuriating

smothering mask And if you contracted thewretched virus because of it If yes hard luck

Yoursquore nothing more than one of the 841 millionpeople who have it Thatrsquos all that people aroundthe world will see Not your gender not your ageand certainly not your political belief Of course

there will be studies about the correlation ofthese factors with the incidence rate of the

infections but thatrsquos another story altogether andnot one possibly as broad as the one we talk

aboutMoreover the correlation must not be

confused with causation Now perhaps thatrsquosa story for another day But think about it thisway whether you go to college or drop out of

high school whether you choose to live ordecide to die no matter the decision no

matter your inclination or choice whetheryou like it or not you will be nothing more

than a statisticIt might sound a bit gloomy to be honestWhen I first thought about it I felt almostinsignificant Like a tiny speck of dust in a

galaxy of stars Alas isnrsquot that all that we arethough

A pale blue dot in an ocean of stars Ourplanet one among millions or perhaps

billions of others All 78 billion of us fightingfor a place in the world knowing full well we

canrsquot all possibly have it It might makeanyone feel overwhelmed but therersquos

something about that that is so challenging itis almost inspiring We all know statistics andwe all know life But the true beauty of life lies

in the ability to defy statistics Only onequestion remains are you up for the

challenge

It wonrsquot be any exaggeration If itrsquos said that tools of statistician are used in almost all fields ofcalculation

Be it research finance sports marketing sales health care or population countingIt is a crucial process behind How we make discoveries in science

Making decisions or claiming predictions It plays a crucial play in all situationsStats is involved everywhere from collection to interpretation From explanation to

presentationStatistics helps avoiding a wide variety of analytical traps By making sure that study follow

apt methods in all aspectsChallenging your own assumptions Or drawing data-based conclusions

Statistics is always there Making things crisp and clear

Donrsquot buy that lottery ticket Donrsquot wish for a fallen wicket

Statistically speaking it may all be in vain If you didnrsquot make it the first time why try

again

And if you donrsquot buy wish try andpredict

Why also bother living the life you claim tohave lived

It always seems impossible until it is done

If it makes you happyit doesnt have to make sense to others

When you cant find the sunshinebe the sunshine

Either you run the day or let the day run you

When you focus on the goodthe good gets better

It takes the same energy to worry as it doesto be positive so use your energy to thinkpositive and positive things will happen

The one thing that doesnt abide by majority rule is a persons conscience

Make happiness a priority and be gentle with yourself in the process

College the best start to unfold lifes beauty

Goodbye to the mistakes weve made remember the laughs weve shared

Will never forget these years

Believe in Yourself

Be who you are and say what you feelbecause those who mind donrsquot matter and

those who matter donrsquot mind

Success is liking yourself liking what you do and liking how you do it

Happiness is a by-product of an effort to make someone else happy

If you are not willing to risk the unusual you will have to settle for the ordinary

Always keep it clean simple and precise

Hustle until you no longer have to introduce yourself

Statistics is the science of learning from dataStatistical knowledge helps an individual to usethe proper methods for collecting data employthe correct analysis and present the resultseffectively Statistical analysis is thus used inalmost all fields to make sense out of the vastamount of data that is available Thus statisticalmethodologies are not only useful in drawingimportant results but also play a significant role inproducing new findings and understanding thework of others One such field which has wideuse of the statistical techniques andmethodologies is the Insurance Sector Insuranceis basically the business of risk as it involves thetransfer of risk from one party to another

The main incoming and outgoing source ofincome in the business of insurance is throughpremiums and claims respectively Manystatistical models are used to model claimsand losses Parameters for these distributionsare estimated using Method of momentMaximum likelihood estimates etc and thenGoodness of fit testis applied to check howwell our distribution fits to the data Timeseries model plays an important role inforecasting future values Statistics is used toanswer the most important questions for theinsurance industry What percentage ofpolicies are expected to payout How muchmoney the company must expect to payout inclaims Different methods of data collectioneither in primary or secondary form are usedto determine the required reserves premiumand future predictions Apart from this manystatistical methods for eg Linear modelmethod which uses regression as the maintool in determining the factors affectingpremiums Loss distribution method in whichhistogram and bar graphs are made tocompare different categories and complexstatistical tools such as Ruin Theory and Run-off triangles are used to develop newproducts absorb and evaluate risk and ruinwhen balancing claims reserves andpremiums Thus statistics plays anirreplaceable role in the life cycle ofinsurance business for both life and non-life insurance

Statistics help in

Measuring the stability of drugs-II) Production of drugs according to demandsIII) Effectiveness of drugsIV) Quality control of drugs V) Marketing of drugs VI) Testing the side effects of the drug with thehelp of data VII) Going through the procedure of approvaland public distribution of drugs

Statistics in developing a drug

A lot of statistics tools are used duringproduction clinical trials and marketing andpublic distribution of drugs-1 Average (mean median and mode) Usedduring experiments like stability testingcombination of chemicals and checking acidity orbasicity of solutions to calculate mean averageresults2 Standard deviation and variance It is ameasure of testing precision Can be used toevaluate precision at various points in a processor to evaluate the precision between two differentmethods of the experiment3 Q test for rejecting data It is used to checkoutliers in data ie to check unusual deviation ina data set to see if it can be statistically rejected

4 Confidence limits It helps in finding theprobability of the true value being within acalculable range It makes use of multiplyingstandard deviation with studentrsquos t-factor thatdetermines the confidence interval of theobservation at the stated confidence level5 t F Chi-square and other tests Helps incomparing the results of two data sets For egside effects of different medication in the samepopulation6 Correlation Helps to detect the relationbetween two attributes of a data for eg howthe effect of a medicine increases or decreasesdue to the change in dosage how increase ordecrease in temperature affects the stability ofcertain medication

Clinical Trials

Clinical trials are research studies that evaluatenew ways to improve treatments and quality oflife for people with disease and in presentscenario global pandemic COVID-19 Resultsfrom Clinical trials help develop

1 New drugsvaccines 2 New diagnostic tools 3 New clinical procedures

Participants volunteer for clinical trials

(28)

In this method of stratified random sampling isused to divide the volunteers into different stratabased on shared attributes or characteristicssuch as gender medical conditions and otherspecifics These stratarsquos are used in differentphases of clinical trials

Clinical trials have 4 phases

Before trial begins volunteers need tounderstand the potential benefits and potentialrisks before participating in clinical trials thatrsquoswhy pre-clinical phase is conducted to test thenew treatment on animals and healthyvolunteers This part comes under descriptivestatistics where we are using the observed(benefits and risks) for further research Phase 1- In this new treatment is tested for thefirst time to know how treatment affects thebody to determine a safe dose range forvaccine and their side effects It involvesrelatively 20-80 volunteers Stats approach-Association analysis is performed to capture thecorrelations between drug therapeuticindications and side-effects In order to achievethis goal we adopted Fishers exact test whichis a widely used approach for measuring thesignificance of the association between twonominal variables For example to test thesignificance of the association between drugtherapeutic indications A and drug side effect B

Phase 2- The study involves how well a newtreatment or combination of treatment goes wellwith certain types of patients It involves up to300 patient volunteers For example out oftotal cancer patients half of the patients areselected randomly and are given cancertreatment along with new vaccine and other halfare given cancer treatment along with standardtreatment of corona virus Now side effects inboth the cases are noted Aim is to determinewhich combination of treatment will have lessside effects Chi- square test is used tocompare the side effects in both the cases Phase 3- In this phase effectiveness of addinga new treatment to the standard treatment isstudied 100-1000 volunteers participate in thisphase Stats approach- Participants arerandomly split into two groups 1st group(treatment group) receives the standardtreatment + new vaccine and 2nd group (controlgroup) receives standard treatment + placebo(a treatment that looks identical to the newtreatment but contains no active ingredient) Inthis phase mean time taken to develop antibodies in both the groups are compared usingZ-test (Test of significance for difference inmeans)

Phase 4- In this phase no volunteers areinvolved researchersrsquo monitor drug safety andeffectiveness It involves optimal usage

Codes canrsquot lie but comments can mightseems to be simple yet very meaningful

We all live in the digital era of hightechnologies smart devices and mobilesolutions Data is an essential aspect of anybusiness Itrsquos crucial to gather process andanalyse the data flow and to do that as quicklyand accurately as possible Nowadays the datavolume can be large which makes informationhandling time-consuming and expensive Dueto this precise reason the data science industryis growing at a rapid pace creating newpossibilities as well as opportunities and pythonis one of the solutions to understand andanalyse such big data sets It is a cross-functional language that has lots of advantagesto offer This object-oriented programminglanguage is commonly used to streamline largecomplex data sets Not only this it has a highreadability that helps data analysts to save timeby typing fewer lines of code for accomplishingthe tasks Therefore itrsquos not surprising at allthat it is claimed to be the preferredprogramming language for data science

Let me tell you why Python is a number oneoption for data analysis-

gtgt Easy to LearnBeing involved in development for web servicesmobile apps as well as coding Yes it is one ofthe most famous language characteristics Morethan that a low and thus fast learning curve isthe next pre-eminence of Python whencomparing it with older languages on offer

gtgt Well-SupportedHaving the experience of using some tools forfree you probably know that it is a challenge toget decent support but thatrsquos not the case withPython Despite the high simplicity there can besituations when you still need help with PythonBeing in widespread use like in industries oracademic areas Python has a broad array ofhelpful libraries with tons of helpful and supportmaterials The great benefit is that all thelibraries are available at no cost

gtgt ScalabilityThis Pythonrsquos feature is closely connected withthe previous option Comparing with otherlanguages like R Java python is much fasterand more scalable Therefore it is good invarious fields that can solve a wide range ofproblems Thatrsquos why many companies havemigrated to Python

(34)

gtgt Huge Libraries CollectionAs I have already mentioned Python is one ofthe most supported languages nowadays Ithas a long list of totally free libraries availablefor all the users Thatrsquos a key factor that givesa strong push for Python If yoursquore involved inthe field more likely you are acquainted withsuch names as Pandas SciPy Stats ModelsMatplotlib etc libraries that are intensivelyutilized in the data science community Hereyou can easily find a solution needed forhassle-free work without additional expenses

gtgt Graphics and Visualization ToolsItrsquos a well-known fact that visual information ismuch easier to understand operate andremember So here is some good news foryou There is a pack of diverse visualizationoptions available that makes python a must-have tool not only for data analysis but for alldata science You can make the data moreaccessible and easier to use by means ofcreating various charts and graphics as wellas interactive plots Always remember that thesuccess of your business directly depends onthe ability to extract knowledge and insightsfrom data to make effective strategicdecisions stay competitive and makeprogress and Python is the internationallyclaimed programming language to help us inhandling our data in a better manner for avariety of causes

ldquoCollege life is known as one of the most memorable years of astudentrsquos life exposing them to new experiences like meeting new

people learning new things exploring places etcrdquo

A registered clinical psychologist in Honk Kongnamed Zanonia Chiu said - ldquoGoing to school hadbeen a struggle for some children (withdepression) prior to the pandemic but at leastthey had school routines to stick with Now thatschools are closed some lock themselves upinside their rooms for weeks refusing to takeshowers eat or leave their beds For somechildren with depression there will beconsiderable difficulties adjusting back to normallife when college resumesrdquo and according to anonline survey conducted with the study periodfrom April 2020 to May 2020 - Total 531372 and 243 had symptoms of depressionanxiety and stress respectively with varyingseverities (N=727)The conclusion of the surveyindicated that COVID-19 is building psychologicaldistress among vulnerable college students asthey are forced to stay home along withworsening financial situations lifestyle changesfamily situations and time spent on variousactivities

Sounds so interesting and happening right Itis true indeed but along with stressful timeaside Along with the perks of enjoyingfreedom more than ever there comesacademic pressure tasks of separation fromfamilies career building futureresponsibilities etc Boarding on with thecollege life is a stressful time for manystudents thereby affecting their mental healthMental health problems are very commonamong college students and have been anincreasing concern However the COVID-19pandemic situation has brought this vulnerablepopulation into renewed focus Following thepandemic schools colleges offices andalmost every place that involved humaninteraction was shut It is important to note thatcollegeschool or even a normal routine areimportant coping mechanisms for youngpeople with mental health issues and wheneverything is shut down they lose an anchor inlife and their symptoms could relapse

Mental health among students is a big concernhowever ldquoUNTREATEDrdquo mental illnesses are amuch bigger and exponentially growingconcern Reaching out is an important step formental health issues to be addressed andtreated but reach out to who This is the pointwhere our institution should take over Collegesplay a big role in this stage Colleges doaddress this issue through means of orientationsessions and workshops but there is still a needto address mental health more directly Themethods to address mental health issuesshould be accessible feasible and affordablefor the students For example at NorthwesternUniversity student feedback led orientationenabled organizers to shift their focus fromexpert speakers to student testimonials Meansto address the issue vary from traditionalpresentations and panel discussions to roleplays small group discussions etc Herestudents learn how to recognize mental illnesssymptoms where to find resources andsupport and how to talk to friends who mightbe struggling

The findings of this study highlighted theurgent need to develop interventions andpreventive strategies to address the mentalhealth of college students Another InterviewSurvey study conducted by the Journal ofMedical Internet Research highlighted that of195 students 138 (71) indicated increasedstress and anxiety due to the COVID-19outbreak Multiple stressors were identified thatcontributed to the increased levels of stressanxiety and depressive thoughts amongstudents These included fear and worry abouttheir own health and of their loved ones(177195 91 reported negative impacts ofthe pandemic) difficulty in concentrating(173195 89) disruptions to sleepingpatterns (168195 86) decreased socialinteractions due to physical distancing(167195 86) and increased concerns onacademic performance (159195 82) Tocope with stress and anxiety participants havesought support from others and helpedthemselves by adopting either negative orpositive coping mechanisms It is important toknow that creating awareness about any issueis never enough action is what is neededTaking leave from workschool because of a fluor a fracture is acceptable and might even helpin the process of cure and healing howevertaking time off because of stress from a mentalillness such as anxiety or depressionunfortunately is not

lsquoOnline classrsquo is a term which most of us werenrsquotfamiliar with Before this pandemic we neverthought of getting education at home Covid hasaffected all of our lives In past pursuingeducation meant going to the schoolcollege Butnow the whole scenario has changed Childrenare studying and attending classes from homeJust like there are two sides of a coin onlineclasses also have some advantages anddisadvantages

Starting from the advantages it saves time forboth students and teachers as they donrsquot haveto travel All they have to do is to join throughtheir mobiles or laptops Secondly studentsdonrsquot have to necessarily buy books from theshops like they had to do in offline classesbecause they are given pdfs from which they canstudy Therefore it saves money Third it can beattended from anywhere in the world Unlike inthe offline classes where we had to gather at aparticular place Fourth computer basedpractical can be easily understood as studentscan share their screen with teachers Also it iseasy for teachers to explain a topic with the helpof pictures or animations which can be easilyfound on the internet

Last but not the least Parents can keep an eyeon their children whether they are studyingproperly or not

Apart from advantages it has somedisadvantages too First sitting beside thecomputer or mobile for hours affects the eyesightof both students and teachers Doctors arereporting many cases of eyestrain amongchildren since the online classes have startedSecondly students are becoming lazy as theydonrsquot have to go out of their home Like theproverb lsquoAll work and no play makes Jack a dullboyrsquo is really happening Third students canbunk in the online classes easily As they haveno fear of punishment they learned to disobeyand disrespect teachers Fourth students havebeen given lots of assignments as a result ofwhich most students are copying othersassignments and are not learning anything newFifth it is very difficult to communicate asteachers cannot give attention to each studentLastly it can be concluded that no matter howthe classes are being held a student must bededicated and sincere towards their studiesAfter all onersquos future depends on what they do intheir present

An actuary is a business executive professionally trained in the mathematical sciences Actuariesspecialize in the evaluation of financial riskmdashmost often in the context of life health and casualtyinsurance where they design analyse and refine varied programs to meet the insurance needs ofsociety A growing number of actuaries work in the areas of assetliability management and risk managementSome of these actuaries are employed by investment and consulting firms others are employed byinsurance companies

Actuaries have been called financial architects and social mathematicians because their combinedanalytical and business skills help solve a growing variety of financial and social problems Theactuarial profession is a demanding yet rewarding career choice

In a world bombarded with numerical information informed decisions rely on the ability to separatefact from fiction by applying valid statistical analyses and visualizations Statisticians can providecrucial guidance in determining what information is reliable and which predictions may be trustedThey often help search for clues to the solution of a scientific mystery and sometimes keepinvestigators from being misled by false impressions

Thousands of statisticians work in medicine law agriculture public policy marketing manufacturingengineering and other fields in the social and natural sciences The diversity of applications is anexciting aspect of the field and is one more reason why the demand for well-trained statisticianscontinues to be strong

Contributed by Dr Meenu Goel

The curtain lifts on Bryant Elementary Schools Spring Recorder Recital Ninety third-graders fumble with their instruments take a breath

and blow Their parents braced breathe too

as Hot Crossed Buns emerges a little scattershot -- the Normal Distribution brought to life

By Go Tell Aunt Rhodie the audience

is moved by their sheer pretty-goodness though one kid knocks her music to the floor

and another squeaks to demonstrate

the tail two standard deviations below the mean The curve implies

that somewhere on stage another kid

just played a note so sweet he might shatter Mrs Wedermeyers glasses And if

there are a mother and father who think

that child is theirs may they be forgiven even if the child shining in their eyes

is moving his fingers slightly out of rhythm

even if hes never led the bell curve in his life In consecutive measures of almost unison

its easy to believe these children are musicians

Their parents do so stirred by Ode to Joy they rise to their feet with the final phrase

clapping from the darkened auditorium

at once as one heroically like the parents theyve meant to be

EK NAYA SAFAR

Mubarak ho apko zindgi ka naya safar

Naya hai sheher nai hai dagar

Chut gaye kuch rishte purane

But donrsquot worry yaar mil jayenge naye diwane

Kuch tum jaise khuch tum se alag

So just smile and start a new life

Dosti yaari ko zara side mai rakh ke

Edhar gaur famiye janab

Course toh tumne acha chuna hai

Kuch socha hai ya ese hi liya hai

College mai admission jab hota hai

Toh andar khushi ke fuvare futne lagte hai

Lekin syllabus o dekh kar yeh bhi dagmagane lagte hai

Mana CP paas hai vahi maat ghumte rehna

Varna paper mai cafeacute ki menu sheet hi likhte rehna

Donrsquot take a chill pill coz yaha ki teachers hai thori strict

Just because they want you to be the best

Ab kya kare college ka har din mamuli nahi hota

Aur 9 se 4 sirf parai nahi hoti

Gumo firo esh karo but parna na bhulo

Mana es saal kuch zyada hi speed breakers hai

But the best part is hum sab bhi toh sath hai

PONDERINGAll of humanity is but a set of numbers You and I

are nothing more than a statisticJust think about any decision you had to take

recently No matter your choice you might findyourself ending up only as an infinitesimal

decimal in the final percentage of a statisticianrsquosdiscourse Let me give you an example pertinent

to the world we live in today Say yoursquore arepublican and have to decide whether to wear a

mask or not Naturally your political instinctmight warn you against it However you might

still be inclined to wear one because yoursquoregenuinely scared about what the ldquoliberalsrdquo have

to say about the SARS-COV-2 Now now letrsquos notgo off-topic here I know you might be wondering

what yoursquod do if you were in a Republicanrsquos shoesBut thatrsquos not the point

In the end it seldom matters whether you are arepublican or a liberal especially in situations

like these What matters in the end is if you didgo out without wearing that infuriating

smothering mask And if you contracted thewretched virus because of it If yes hard luck

Yoursquore nothing more than one of the 841 millionpeople who have it Thatrsquos all that people aroundthe world will see Not your gender not your ageand certainly not your political belief Of course

there will be studies about the correlation ofthese factors with the incidence rate of the

infections but thatrsquos another story altogether andnot one possibly as broad as the one we talk

aboutMoreover the correlation must not be

confused with causation Now perhaps thatrsquosa story for another day But think about it thisway whether you go to college or drop out of

high school whether you choose to live ordecide to die no matter the decision no

matter your inclination or choice whetheryou like it or not you will be nothing more

than a statisticIt might sound a bit gloomy to be honestWhen I first thought about it I felt almostinsignificant Like a tiny speck of dust in a

galaxy of stars Alas isnrsquot that all that we arethough

A pale blue dot in an ocean of stars Ourplanet one among millions or perhaps

billions of others All 78 billion of us fightingfor a place in the world knowing full well we

canrsquot all possibly have it It might makeanyone feel overwhelmed but therersquos

something about that that is so challenging itis almost inspiring We all know statistics andwe all know life But the true beauty of life lies

in the ability to defy statistics Only onequestion remains are you up for the

challenge

It wonrsquot be any exaggeration If itrsquos said that tools of statistician are used in almost all fields ofcalculation

Be it research finance sports marketing sales health care or population countingIt is a crucial process behind How we make discoveries in science

Making decisions or claiming predictions It plays a crucial play in all situationsStats is involved everywhere from collection to interpretation From explanation to

presentationStatistics helps avoiding a wide variety of analytical traps By making sure that study follow

apt methods in all aspectsChallenging your own assumptions Or drawing data-based conclusions

Statistics is always there Making things crisp and clear

It always seems impossible until it is done

If it makes you happyit doesnt have to make sense to others

When you cant find the sunshinebe the sunshine

Either you run the day or let the day run you

When you focus on the goodthe good gets better

It takes the same energy to worry as it doesto be positive so use your energy to thinkpositive and positive things will happen

The one thing that doesnt abide by majority rule is a persons conscience

Make happiness a priority and be gentle with yourself in the process

College the best start to unfold lifes beauty

Goodbye to the mistakes weve made remember the laughs weve shared

Will never forget these years

People are capable at anytime in their lives of doing what they dream of

Nehal DixitStop measuring your degree of

productivity and replace it by degree ofpresence

May every sunrise bring you hopeMay every sunset bring you peace

If you dont believe in yourself thenno one is going to believe in you So

Believe in Yourself

Be who you are and say what you feelbecause those who mind donrsquot matter and

those who matter donrsquot mind

Success is liking yourself liking what you do and liking how you do it

Happiness is a by-product of an effort to make someone else happy

If you are not willing to risk the unusual you will have to settle for the ordinary

Always keep it clean simple and precise

Hustle until you no longer have to introduce yourself

Dream it Wish it Do it

There are no limits to what you can accomplish except the limits you place

on your own thinking

The greatness of humanity is not in being human but in being humane

You will be exactly as happy as you decide

One thing to learn from the sun is thatwhenever a cloud tries to hinder itslight it finds its own path to shine

Excellence is not achieved - it is aspired to and trekked towards The tougher the trek

the better the views

I think the day we figure out everythingabout our lives is the day we die

Finding your magic can be scary but owning it will be EUPHORIA

An approximate answer to the right problem is worth a good deal more than

an exact answer to an approximate problem

Our greatest weakness lies in giving up The most certain way to succeed is always to try just one more time

The aim is to live happily heal throughevery situation and learn everything new

with every step taken

Believe in progress not perfection

ALUMINI SPEAKSIts been a privilege to be the leading batch of the Department of StatisticsMata Sundri College None less than a roller coaster with every newchallenge we have rocked it on together With the amazing faculty it neverfelt like we needed the Seniors We have created our paths and wont letour juniors struggle for it always there to their rescue I have been a part of the statistics society for all the years and haveexperienced the best of it I see the society and the department growingwhich surely adds a feather to my capWishing for the best of it with all my heartI wish I could relive those best three years spent at the department witheveryone in my batch and the teachersGood luck

Sometimes the most beautiful things happen in the most unexpected waysI still canrsquot get over the fact that my 3 years-long and the beautiful journeycame to an end I never thought that I would make such beautiful bonds incollege be it with the teachers or my classmates Mata Sundri College will always have a special place in my heart and in mylife It is this place that made me realize my true potential I entered thecollege with almost no expectations But looking back at the time I nowfeel that those years were the most special and the most beautiful onesThe kind of love and support I received from all the teachers cannot bedescribed in words The personal connection which I still have with myteachers would be missing had I been in some other college I amextremely grateful to them It was because of them that I started loving mysubject Statistics All the hard work put in by my teachers and by myselfpaid off in the end Never did I imagine that I would become the Universitytopper I still feel that I am living in a dream

It is one of my greatest accomplishments Receiving the Medal from theHonrsquoble Education Minister Shri Ramesh Pokhriyal was a matter of pride Ifeel so happy seeing my parents and teachers being proud of me I surelyknow that whenever Irsquoll need some help in the future my teachers willalways be there to guide me The only regret is that we didnrsquot get a chance to greet the teachers and ourfellow classmates one last time due to the pandemic But keeping thataside I will always cherish my journey Thank you Mata Sundri College forthe amazing experience

Statistics help in

Measuring the stability of drugs-II) Production of drugs according to demandsIII) Effectiveness of drugsIV) Quality control of drugs V) Marketing of drugs VI) Testing the side effects of the drug with thehelp of data VII) Going through the procedure of approvaland public distribution of drugs

Statistics in developing a drug

A lot of statistics tools are used duringproduction clinical trials and marketing andpublic distribution of drugs-1 Average (mean median and mode) Usedduring experiments like stability testingcombination of chemicals and checking acidity orbasicity of solutions to calculate mean averageresults2 Standard deviation and variance It is ameasure of testing precision Can be used toevaluate precision at various points in a processor to evaluate the precision between two differentmethods of the experiment3 Q test for rejecting data It is used to checkoutliers in data ie to check unusual deviation ina data set to see if it can be statistically rejected

4 Confidence limits It helps in finding theprobability of the true value being within acalculable range It makes use of multiplyingstandard deviation with studentrsquos t-factor thatdetermines the confidence interval of theobservation at the stated confidence level5 t F Chi-square and other tests Helps incomparing the results of two data sets For egside effects of different medication in the samepopulation6 Correlation Helps to detect the relationbetween two attributes of a data for eg howthe effect of a medicine increases or decreasesdue to the change in dosage how increase ordecrease in temperature affects the stability ofcertain medication

Clinical Trials

Clinical trials are research studies that evaluatenew ways to improve treatments and quality oflife for people with disease and in presentscenario global pandemic COVID-19 Resultsfrom Clinical trials help develop

1 New drugsvaccines 2 New diagnostic tools 3 New clinical procedures

Participants volunteer for clinical trials

(28)

In this method of stratified random sampling isused to divide the volunteers into different stratabased on shared attributes or characteristicssuch as gender medical conditions and otherspecifics These stratarsquos are used in differentphases of clinical trials

Clinical trials have 4 phases

Before trial begins volunteers need tounderstand the potential benefits and potentialrisks before participating in clinical trials thatrsquoswhy pre-clinical phase is conducted to test thenew treatment on animals and healthyvolunteers This part comes under descriptivestatistics where we are using the observed(benefits and risks) for further research Phase 1- In this new treatment is tested for thefirst time to know how treatment affects thebody to determine a safe dose range forvaccine and their side effects It involvesrelatively 20-80 volunteers Stats approach-Association analysis is performed to capture thecorrelations between drug therapeuticindications and side-effects In order to achievethis goal we adopted Fishers exact test whichis a widely used approach for measuring thesignificance of the association between twonominal variables For example to test thesignificance of the association between drugtherapeutic indications A and drug side effect B

Phase 2- The study involves how well a newtreatment or combination of treatment goes wellwith certain types of patients It involves up to300 patient volunteers For example out oftotal cancer patients half of the patients areselected randomly and are given cancertreatment along with new vaccine and other halfare given cancer treatment along with standardtreatment of corona virus Now side effects inboth the cases are noted Aim is to determinewhich combination of treatment will have lessside effects Chi- square test is used tocompare the side effects in both the cases Phase 3- In this phase effectiveness of addinga new treatment to the standard treatment isstudied 100-1000 volunteers participate in thisphase Stats approach- Participants arerandomly split into two groups 1st group(treatment group) receives the standardtreatment + new vaccine and 2nd group (controlgroup) receives standard treatment + placebo(a treatment that looks identical to the newtreatment but contains no active ingredient) Inthis phase mean time taken to develop antibodies in both the groups are compared usingZ-test (Test of significance for difference inmeans)

Phase 4- In this phase no volunteers areinvolved researchersrsquo monitor drug safety andeffectiveness It involves optimal usage

Let me tell you why Python is a number oneoption for data analysis-

By Tanisha Gupta ( 3rd Year )

gtgt Easy to LearnBeing involved in development for web servicesmobile apps as well as coding Yes it is one ofthe most famous language characteristics Morethan that a low and thus fast learning curve isthe next pre-eminence of Python whencomparing it with older languages on offer

gtgt Well-SupportedHaving the experience of using some tools forfree you probably know that it is a challenge toget decent support but thatrsquos not the case withPython Despite the high simplicity there can besituations when you still need help with PythonBeing in widespread use like in industries oracademic areas Python has a broad array ofhelpful libraries with tons of helpful and supportmaterials The great benefit is that all thelibraries are available at no cost

gtgt ScalabilityThis Pythonrsquos feature is closely connected withthe previous option Comparing with otherlanguages like R Java python is much fasterand more scalable Therefore it is good invarious fields that can solve a wide range ofproblems Thatrsquos why many companies havemigrated to Python

(34)

gtgt Huge Libraries CollectionAs I have already mentioned Python is one ofthe most supported languages nowadays Ithas a long list of totally free libraries availablefor all the users Thatrsquos a key factor that givesa strong push for Python If yoursquore involved inthe field more likely you are acquainted withsuch names as Pandas SciPy Stats ModelsMatplotlib etc libraries that are intensivelyutilized in the data science community Hereyou can easily find a solution needed forhassle-free work without additional expenses

gtgt Graphics and Visualization ToolsItrsquos a well-known fact that visual information ismuch easier to understand operate andremember So here is some good news foryou There is a pack of diverse visualizationoptions available that makes python a must-have tool not only for data analysis but for alldata science You can make the data moreaccessible and easier to use by means ofcreating various charts and graphics as wellas interactive plots Always remember that thesuccess of your business directly depends onthe ability to extract knowledge and insightsfrom data to make effective strategicdecisions stay competitive and makeprogress and Python is the internationallyclaimed programming language to help us inhandling our data in a better manner for avariety of causes

A registered clinical psychologist in Honk Kongnamed Zanonia Chiu said - ldquoGoing to school hadbeen a struggle for some children (withdepression) prior to the pandemic but at leastthey had school routines to stick with Now thatschools are closed some lock themselves upinside their rooms for weeks refusing to takeshowers eat or leave their beds For somechildren with depression there will beconsiderable difficulties adjusting back to normallife when college resumesrdquo and according to anonline survey conducted with the study periodfrom April 2020 to May 2020 - Total 531372 and 243 had symptoms of depressionanxiety and stress respectively with varyingseverities (N=727)The conclusion of the surveyindicated that COVID-19 is building psychologicaldistress among vulnerable college students asthey are forced to stay home along withworsening financial situations lifestyle changesfamily situations and time spent on variousactivities

Sounds so interesting and happening right Itis true indeed but along with stressful timeaside Along with the perks of enjoyingfreedom more than ever there comesacademic pressure tasks of separation fromfamilies career building futureresponsibilities etc Boarding on with thecollege life is a stressful time for manystudents thereby affecting their mental healthMental health problems are very commonamong college students and have been anincreasing concern However the COVID-19pandemic situation has brought this vulnerablepopulation into renewed focus Following thepandemic schools colleges offices andalmost every place that involved humaninteraction was shut It is important to note thatcollegeschool or even a normal routine areimportant coping mechanisms for youngpeople with mental health issues and wheneverything is shut down they lose an anchor inlife and their symptoms could relapse

Mental health among students is a big concernhowever ldquoUNTREATEDrdquo mental illnesses are amuch bigger and exponentially growingconcern Reaching out is an important step formental health issues to be addressed andtreated but reach out to who This is the pointwhere our institution should take over Collegesplay a big role in this stage Colleges doaddress this issue through means of orientationsessions and workshops but there is still a needto address mental health more directly Themethods to address mental health issuesshould be accessible feasible and affordablefor the students For example at NorthwesternUniversity student feedback led orientationenabled organizers to shift their focus fromexpert speakers to student testimonials Meansto address the issue vary from traditionalpresentations and panel discussions to roleplays small group discussions etc Herestudents learn how to recognize mental illnesssymptoms where to find resources andsupport and how to talk to friends who mightbe struggling

The findings of this study highlighted theurgent need to develop interventions andpreventive strategies to address the mentalhealth of college students Another InterviewSurvey study conducted by the Journal ofMedical Internet Research highlighted that of195 students 138 (71) indicated increasedstress and anxiety due to the COVID-19outbreak Multiple stressors were identified thatcontributed to the increased levels of stressanxiety and depressive thoughts amongstudents These included fear and worry abouttheir own health and of their loved ones(177195 91 reported negative impacts ofthe pandemic) difficulty in concentrating(173195 89) disruptions to sleepingpatterns (168195 86) decreased socialinteractions due to physical distancing(167195 86) and increased concerns onacademic performance (159195 82) Tocope with stress and anxiety participants havesought support from others and helpedthemselves by adopting either negative orpositive coping mechanisms It is important toknow that creating awareness about any issueis never enough action is what is neededTaking leave from workschool because of a fluor a fracture is acceptable and might even helpin the process of cure and healing howevertaking time off because of stress from a mentalillness such as anxiety or depressionunfortunately is not

lsquoOnline classrsquo is a term which most of us werenrsquotfamiliar with Before this pandemic we neverthought of getting education at home Covid hasaffected all of our lives In past pursuingeducation meant going to the schoolcollege Butnow the whole scenario has changed Childrenare studying and attending classes from homeJust like there are two sides of a coin onlineclasses also have some advantages anddisadvantages

Starting from the advantages it saves time forboth students and teachers as they donrsquot haveto travel All they have to do is to join throughtheir mobiles or laptops Secondly studentsdonrsquot have to necessarily buy books from theshops like they had to do in offline classesbecause they are given pdfs from which they canstudy Therefore it saves money Third it can beattended from anywhere in the world Unlike inthe offline classes where we had to gather at aparticular place Fourth computer basedpractical can be easily understood as studentscan share their screen with teachers Also it iseasy for teachers to explain a topic with the helpof pictures or animations which can be easilyfound on the internet

Last but not the least Parents can keep an eyeon their children whether they are studyingproperly or not

Apart from advantages it has somedisadvantages too First sitting beside thecomputer or mobile for hours affects the eyesightof both students and teachers Doctors arereporting many cases of eyestrain amongchildren since the online classes have startedSecondly students are becoming lazy as theydonrsquot have to go out of their home Like theproverb lsquoAll work and no play makes Jack a dullboyrsquo is really happening Third students canbunk in the online classes easily As they haveno fear of punishment they learned to disobeyand disrespect teachers Fourth students havebeen given lots of assignments as a result ofwhich most students are copying othersassignments and are not learning anything newFifth it is very difficult to communicate asteachers cannot give attention to each studentLastly it can be concluded that no matter howthe classes are being held a student must bededicated and sincere towards their studiesAfter all onersquos future depends on what they do intheir present

An actuary is a business executive professionally trained in the mathematical sciences Actuariesspecialize in the evaluation of financial riskmdashmost often in the context of life health and casualtyinsurance where they design analyse and refine varied programs to meet the insurance needs ofsociety A growing number of actuaries work in the areas of assetliability management and risk managementSome of these actuaries are employed by investment and consulting firms others are employed byinsurance companies

Actuaries have been called financial architects and social mathematicians because their combinedanalytical and business skills help solve a growing variety of financial and social problems Theactuarial profession is a demanding yet rewarding career choice

In a world bombarded with numerical information informed decisions rely on the ability to separatefact from fiction by applying valid statistical analyses and visualizations Statisticians can providecrucial guidance in determining what information is reliable and which predictions may be trustedThey often help search for clues to the solution of a scientific mystery and sometimes keepinvestigators from being misled by false impressions

Thousands of statisticians work in medicine law agriculture public policy marketing manufacturingengineering and other fields in the social and natural sciences The diversity of applications is anexciting aspect of the field and is one more reason why the demand for well-trained statisticianscontinues to be strong

Poetry

Contributed by Dr Komal Goel

(41)

Contributed by Dr Meenu Goel

The curtain lifts on Bryant Elementary Schools Spring Recorder Recital Ninety third-graders fumble with their instruments take a breath

and blow Their parents braced breathe too

as Hot Crossed Buns emerges a little scattershot -- the Normal Distribution brought to life

By Go Tell Aunt Rhodie the audience

is moved by their sheer pretty-goodness though one kid knocks her music to the floor

and another squeaks to demonstrate

the tail two standard deviations below the mean The curve implies

that somewhere on stage another kid

just played a note so sweet he might shatter Mrs Wedermeyers glasses And if

there are a mother and father who think

that child is theirs may they be forgiven even if the child shining in their eyes

is moving his fingers slightly out of rhythm

even if hes never led the bell curve in his life In consecutive measures of almost unison

its easy to believe these children are musicians

Their parents do so stirred by Ode to Joy they rise to their feet with the final phrase

clapping from the darkened auditorium

at once as one heroically like the parents theyve meant to be

EK NAYA SAFAR

Mubarak ho apko zindgi ka naya safar

Naya hai sheher nai hai dagar

Chut gaye kuch rishte purane

But donrsquot worry yaar mil jayenge naye diwane

Kuch tum jaise khuch tum se alag

So just smile and start a new life

Dosti yaari ko zara side mai rakh ke

Edhar gaur famiye janab

Course toh tumne acha chuna hai

Kuch socha hai ya ese hi liya hai

College mai admission jab hota hai

Toh andar khushi ke fuvare futne lagte hai

Lekin syllabus o dekh kar yeh bhi dagmagane lagte hai

Mana CP paas hai vahi maat ghumte rehna

Varna paper mai cafeacute ki menu sheet hi likhte rehna

Donrsquot take a chill pill coz yaha ki teachers hai thori strict

Just because they want you to be the best

Ab kya kare college ka har din mamuli nahi hota

Aur 9 se 4 sirf parai nahi hoti

Gumo firo esh karo but parna na bhulo

Mana es saal kuch zyada hi speed breakers hai

But the best part is hum sab bhi toh sath hai

PONDERINGAll of humanity is but a set of numbers You and I

are nothing more than a statisticJust think about any decision you had to take

recently No matter your choice you might findyourself ending up only as an infinitesimal

decimal in the final percentage of a statisticianrsquosdiscourse Let me give you an example pertinent

to the world we live in today Say yoursquore arepublican and have to decide whether to wear a

mask or not Naturally your political instinctmight warn you against it However you might

still be inclined to wear one because yoursquoregenuinely scared about what the ldquoliberalsrdquo have

to say about the SARS-COV-2 Now now letrsquos notgo off-topic here I know you might be wondering

what yoursquod do if you were in a Republicanrsquos shoesBut thatrsquos not the point

In the end it seldom matters whether you are arepublican or a liberal especially in situations

like these What matters in the end is if you didgo out without wearing that infuriating

smothering mask And if you contracted thewretched virus because of it If yes hard luck

Yoursquore nothing more than one of the 841 millionpeople who have it Thatrsquos all that people aroundthe world will see Not your gender not your ageand certainly not your political belief Of course

there will be studies about the correlation ofthese factors with the incidence rate of the

infections but thatrsquos another story altogether andnot one possibly as broad as the one we talk

aboutMoreover the correlation must not be

confused with causation Now perhaps thatrsquosa story for another day But think about it thisway whether you go to college or drop out of

high school whether you choose to live ordecide to die no matter the decision no

matter your inclination or choice whetheryou like it or not you will be nothing more

than a statisticIt might sound a bit gloomy to be honestWhen I first thought about it I felt almostinsignificant Like a tiny speck of dust in a

galaxy of stars Alas isnrsquot that all that we arethough

A pale blue dot in an ocean of stars Ourplanet one among millions or perhaps

billions of others All 78 billion of us fightingfor a place in the world knowing full well we

canrsquot all possibly have it It might makeanyone feel overwhelmed but therersquos

something about that that is so challenging itis almost inspiring We all know statistics andwe all know life But the true beauty of life lies

in the ability to defy statistics Only onequestion remains are you up for the

challenge

It wonrsquot be any exaggeration If itrsquos said that tools of statistician are used in almost all fields ofcalculation

Be it research finance sports marketing sales health care or population countingIt is a crucial process behind How we make discoveries in science

Making decisions or claiming predictions It plays a crucial play in all situationsStats is involved everywhere from collection to interpretation From explanation to

presentationStatistics helps avoiding a wide variety of analytical traps By making sure that study follow

apt methods in all aspectsChallenging your own assumptions Or drawing data-based conclusions

Statistics is always there Making things crisp and clear

It always seems impossible until it is done

If it makes you happyit doesnt have to make sense to others

When you cant find the sunshinebe the sunshine

Either you run the day or let the day run you

When you focus on the goodthe good gets better

It takes the same energy to worry as it doesto be positive so use your energy to thinkpositive and positive things will happen

The one thing that doesnt abide by majority rule is a persons conscience

Make happiness a priority and be gentle with yourself in the process

College the best start to unfold lifes beauty

Goodbye to the mistakes weve made remember the laughs weve shared

Will never forget these years

People are capable at anytime in their lives of doing what they dream of

Believe in Yourself

Be who you are and say what you feelbecause those who mind donrsquot matter and

those who matter donrsquot mind

Success is liking yourself liking what you do and liking how you do it

Happiness is a by-product of an effort to make someone else happy

If you are not willing to risk the unusual you will have to settle for the ordinary

Always keep it clean simple and precise

Hustle until you no longer have to introduce yourself

Dream it Wish it Do it

ALUMINI SPEAKSIts been a privilege to be the leading batch of the Department of StatisticsMata Sundri College None less than a roller coaster with every newchallenge we have rocked it on together With the amazing faculty it neverfelt like we needed the Seniors We have created our paths and wont letour juniors struggle for it always there to their rescue I have been a part of the statistics society for all the years and haveexperienced the best of it I see the society and the department growingwhich surely adds a feather to my capWishing for the best of it with all my heartI wish I could relive those best three years spent at the department witheveryone in my batch and the teachersGood luck

Sometimes the most beautiful things happen in the most unexpected waysI still canrsquot get over the fact that my 3 years-long and the beautiful journeycame to an end I never thought that I would make such beautiful bonds incollege be it with the teachers or my classmates Mata Sundri College will always have a special place in my heart and in mylife It is this place that made me realize my true potential I entered thecollege with almost no expectations But looking back at the time I nowfeel that those years were the most special and the most beautiful onesThe kind of love and support I received from all the teachers cannot bedescribed in words The personal connection which I still have with myteachers would be missing had I been in some other college I amextremely grateful to them It was because of them that I started loving mysubject Statistics All the hard work put in by my teachers and by myselfpaid off in the end Never did I imagine that I would become the Universitytopper I still feel that I am living in a dream

It is one of my greatest accomplishments Receiving the Medal from theHonrsquoble Education Minister Shri Ramesh Pokhriyal was a matter of pride Ifeel so happy seeing my parents and teachers being proud of me I surelyknow that whenever Irsquoll need some help in the future my teachers willalways be there to guide me The only regret is that we didnrsquot get a chance to greet the teachers and ourfellow classmates one last time due to the pandemic But keeping thataside I will always cherish my journey Thank you Mata Sundri College forthe amazing experience

In this method of stratified random sampling isused to divide the volunteers into different stratabased on shared attributes or characteristicssuch as gender medical conditions and otherspecifics These stratarsquos are used in differentphases of clinical trials

Clinical trials have 4 phases

Before trial begins volunteers need tounderstand the potential benefits and potentialrisks before participating in clinical trials thatrsquoswhy pre-clinical phase is conducted to test thenew treatment on animals and healthyvolunteers This part comes under descriptivestatistics where we are using the observed(benefits and risks) for further research Phase 1- In this new treatment is tested for thefirst time to know how treatment affects thebody to determine a safe dose range forvaccine and their side effects It involvesrelatively 20-80 volunteers Stats approach-Association analysis is performed to capture thecorrelations between drug therapeuticindications and side-effects In order to achievethis goal we adopted Fishers exact test whichis a widely used approach for measuring thesignificance of the association between twonominal variables For example to test thesignificance of the association between drugtherapeutic indications A and drug side effect B

Phase 2- The study involves how well a newtreatment or combination of treatment goes wellwith certain types of patients It involves up to300 patient volunteers For example out oftotal cancer patients half of the patients areselected randomly and are given cancertreatment along with new vaccine and other halfare given cancer treatment along with standardtreatment of corona virus Now side effects inboth the cases are noted Aim is to determinewhich combination of treatment will have lessside effects Chi- square test is used tocompare the side effects in both the cases Phase 3- In this phase effectiveness of addinga new treatment to the standard treatment isstudied 100-1000 volunteers participate in thisphase Stats approach- Participants arerandomly split into two groups 1st group(treatment group) receives the standardtreatment + new vaccine and 2nd group (controlgroup) receives standard treatment + placebo(a treatment that looks identical to the newtreatment but contains no active ingredient) Inthis phase mean time taken to develop antibodies in both the groups are compared usingZ-test (Test of significance for difference inmeans)

Phase 4- In this phase no volunteers areinvolved researchersrsquo monitor drug safety andeffectiveness It involves optimal usage

Codes canrsquot lie but comments can mightseems to be simple yet very meaningful

We all live in the digital era of hightechnologies smart devices and mobilesolutions Data is an essential aspect of anybusiness Itrsquos crucial to gather process andanalyse the data flow and to do that as quicklyand accurately as possible Nowadays the datavolume can be large which makes informationhandling time-consuming and expensive Dueto this precise reason the data science industryis growing at a rapid pace creating newpossibilities as well as opportunities and pythonis one of the solutions to understand andanalyse such big data sets It is a cross-functional language that has lots of advantagesto offer This object-oriented programminglanguage is commonly used to streamline largecomplex data sets Not only this it has a highreadability that helps data analysts to save timeby typing fewer lines of code for accomplishingthe tasks Therefore itrsquos not surprising at allthat it is claimed to be the preferredprogramming language for data science

gtgt Easy to LearnBeing involved in development for web servicesmobile apps as well as coding Yes it is one ofthe most famous language characteristics Morethan that a low and thus fast learning curve isthe next pre-eminence of Python whencomparing it with older languages on offer

gtgt Well-SupportedHaving the experience of using some tools forfree you probably know that it is a challenge toget decent support but thatrsquos not the case withPython Despite the high simplicity there can besituations when you still need help with PythonBeing in widespread use like in industries oracademic areas Python has a broad array ofhelpful libraries with tons of helpful and supportmaterials The great benefit is that all thelibraries are available at no cost

gtgt ScalabilityThis Pythonrsquos feature is closely connected withthe previous option Comparing with otherlanguages like R Java python is much fasterand more scalable Therefore it is good invarious fields that can solve a wide range ofproblems Thatrsquos why many companies havemigrated to Python

gtgt Huge Libraries CollectionAs I have already mentioned Python is one ofthe most supported languages nowadays Ithas a long list of totally free libraries availablefor all the users Thatrsquos a key factor that givesa strong push for Python If yoursquore involved inthe field more likely you are acquainted withsuch names as Pandas SciPy Stats ModelsMatplotlib etc libraries that are intensivelyutilized in the data science community Hereyou can easily find a solution needed forhassle-free work without additional expenses

ldquoCollege life is known as one of the most memorable years of astudentrsquos life exposing them to new experiences like meeting new

people learning new things exploring places etcrdquo

A registered clinical psychologist in Honk Kongnamed Zanonia Chiu said - ldquoGoing to school hadbeen a struggle for some children (withdepression) prior to the pandemic but at leastthey had school routines to stick with Now thatschools are closed some lock themselves upinside their rooms for weeks refusing to takeshowers eat or leave their beds For somechildren with depression there will beconsiderable difficulties adjusting back to normallife when college resumesrdquo and according to anonline survey conducted with the study periodfrom April 2020 to May 2020 - Total 531372 and 243 had symptoms of depressionanxiety and stress respectively with varyingseverities (N=727)The conclusion of the surveyindicated that COVID-19 is building psychologicaldistress among vulnerable college students asthey are forced to stay home along withworsening financial situations lifestyle changesfamily situations and time spent on variousactivities

Sounds so interesting and happening right Itis true indeed but along with stressful timeaside Along with the perks of enjoyingfreedom more than ever there comesacademic pressure tasks of separation fromfamilies career building futureresponsibilities etc Boarding on with thecollege life is a stressful time for manystudents thereby affecting their mental healthMental health problems are very commonamong college students and have been anincreasing concern However the COVID-19pandemic situation has brought this vulnerablepopulation into renewed focus Following thepandemic schools colleges offices andalmost every place that involved humaninteraction was shut It is important to note thatcollegeschool or even a normal routine areimportant coping mechanisms for youngpeople with mental health issues and wheneverything is shut down they lose an anchor inlife and their symptoms could relapse

Mental health among students is a big concernhowever ldquoUNTREATEDrdquo mental illnesses are amuch bigger and exponentially growingconcern Reaching out is an important step formental health issues to be addressed andtreated but reach out to who This is the pointwhere our institution should take over Collegesplay a big role in this stage Colleges doaddress this issue through means of orientationsessions and workshops but there is still a needto address mental health more directly Themethods to address mental health issuesshould be accessible feasible and affordablefor the students For example at NorthwesternUniversity student feedback led orientationenabled organizers to shift their focus fromexpert speakers to student testimonials Meansto address the issue vary from traditionalpresentations and panel discussions to roleplays small group discussions etc Herestudents learn how to recognize mental illnesssymptoms where to find resources andsupport and how to talk to friends who mightbe struggling

The findings of this study highlighted theurgent need to develop interventions andpreventive strategies to address the mentalhealth of college students Another InterviewSurvey study conducted by the Journal ofMedical Internet Research highlighted that of195 students 138 (71) indicated increasedstress and anxiety due to the COVID-19outbreak Multiple stressors were identified thatcontributed to the increased levels of stressanxiety and depressive thoughts amongstudents These included fear and worry abouttheir own health and of their loved ones(177195 91 reported negative impacts ofthe pandemic) difficulty in concentrating(173195 89) disruptions to sleepingpatterns (168195 86) decreased socialinteractions due to physical distancing(167195 86) and increased concerns onacademic performance (159195 82) Tocope with stress and anxiety participants havesought support from others and helpedthemselves by adopting either negative orpositive coping mechanisms It is important toknow that creating awareness about any issueis never enough action is what is neededTaking leave from workschool because of a fluor a fracture is acceptable and might even helpin the process of cure and healing howevertaking time off because of stress from a mentalillness such as anxiety or depressionunfortunately is not

lsquoOnline classrsquo is a term which most of us werenrsquotfamiliar with Before this pandemic we neverthought of getting education at home Covid hasaffected all of our lives In past pursuingeducation meant going to the schoolcollege Butnow the whole scenario has changed Childrenare studying and attending classes from homeJust like there are two sides of a coin onlineclasses also have some advantages anddisadvantages

Starting from the advantages it saves time forboth students and teachers as they donrsquot haveto travel All they have to do is to join throughtheir mobiles or laptops Secondly studentsdonrsquot have to necessarily buy books from theshops like they had to do in offline classesbecause they are given pdfs from which they canstudy Therefore it saves money Third it can beattended from anywhere in the world Unlike inthe offline classes where we had to gather at aparticular place Fourth computer basedpractical can be easily understood as studentscan share their screen with teachers Also it iseasy for teachers to explain a topic with the helpof pictures or animations which can be easilyfound on the internet

Last but not the least Parents can keep an eyeon their children whether they are studyingproperly or not

Apart from advantages it has somedisadvantages too First sitting beside thecomputer or mobile for hours affects the eyesightof both students and teachers Doctors arereporting many cases of eyestrain amongchildren since the online classes have startedSecondly students are becoming lazy as theydonrsquot have to go out of their home Like theproverb lsquoAll work and no play makes Jack a dullboyrsquo is really happening Third students canbunk in the online classes easily As they haveno fear of punishment they learned to disobeyand disrespect teachers Fourth students havebeen given lots of assignments as a result ofwhich most students are copying othersassignments and are not learning anything newFifth it is very difficult to communicate asteachers cannot give attention to each studentLastly it can be concluded that no matter howthe classes are being held a student must bededicated and sincere towards their studiesAfter all onersquos future depends on what they do intheir present

An actuary is a business executive professionally trained in the mathematical sciences Actuariesspecialize in the evaluation of financial riskmdashmost often in the context of life health and casualtyinsurance where they design analyse and refine varied programs to meet the insurance needs ofsociety A growing number of actuaries work in the areas of assetliability management and risk managementSome of these actuaries are employed by investment and consulting firms others are employed byinsurance companies

Actuaries have been called financial architects and social mathematicians because their combinedanalytical and business skills help solve a growing variety of financial and social problems Theactuarial profession is a demanding yet rewarding career choice

In a world bombarded with numerical information informed decisions rely on the ability to separatefact from fiction by applying valid statistical analyses and visualizations Statisticians can providecrucial guidance in determining what information is reliable and which predictions may be trustedThey often help search for clues to the solution of a scientific mystery and sometimes keepinvestigators from being misled by false impressions

Thousands of statisticians work in medicine law agriculture public policy marketing manufacturingengineering and other fields in the social and natural sciences The diversity of applications is anexciting aspect of the field and is one more reason why the demand for well-trained statisticianscontinues to be strong

Contributed by Dr Meenu Goel

The curtain lifts on Bryant Elementary Schools Spring Recorder Recital Ninety third-graders fumble with their instruments take a breath

and blow Their parents braced breathe too

as Hot Crossed Buns emerges a little scattershot -- the Normal Distribution brought to life

By Go Tell Aunt Rhodie the audience

is moved by their sheer pretty-goodness though one kid knocks her music to the floor

and another squeaks to demonstrate

the tail two standard deviations below the mean The curve implies

that somewhere on stage another kid

just played a note so sweet he might shatter Mrs Wedermeyers glasses And if

there are a mother and father who think

that child is theirs may they be forgiven even if the child shining in their eyes

is moving his fingers slightly out of rhythm

even if hes never led the bell curve in his life In consecutive measures of almost unison

its easy to believe these children are musicians

Their parents do so stirred by Ode to Joy they rise to their feet with the final phrase

clapping from the darkened auditorium

at once as one heroically like the parents theyve meant to be

EK NAYA SAFAR

Mubarak ho apko zindgi ka naya safar

Naya hai sheher nai hai dagar

Chut gaye kuch rishte purane

But donrsquot worry yaar mil jayenge naye diwane

Kuch tum jaise khuch tum se alag

So just smile and start a new life

Dosti yaari ko zara side mai rakh ke

Edhar gaur famiye janab

Course toh tumne acha chuna hai

Kuch socha hai ya ese hi liya hai

College mai admission jab hota hai

Toh andar khushi ke fuvare futne lagte hai

Lekin syllabus o dekh kar yeh bhi dagmagane lagte hai

Mana CP paas hai vahi maat ghumte rehna

Varna paper mai cafeacute ki menu sheet hi likhte rehna

Donrsquot take a chill pill coz yaha ki teachers hai thori strict

Just because they want you to be the best

Ab kya kare college ka har din mamuli nahi hota

Aur 9 se 4 sirf parai nahi hoti

Gumo firo esh karo but parna na bhulo

Mana es saal kuch zyada hi speed breakers hai

But the best part is hum sab bhi toh sath hai

PONDERINGAll of humanity is but a set of numbers You and I

are nothing more than a statisticJust think about any decision you had to take

recently No matter your choice you might findyourself ending up only as an infinitesimal

decimal in the final percentage of a statisticianrsquosdiscourse Let me give you an example pertinent

to the world we live in today Say yoursquore arepublican and have to decide whether to wear a

mask or not Naturally your political instinctmight warn you against it However you might

still be inclined to wear one because yoursquoregenuinely scared about what the ldquoliberalsrdquo have

to say about the SARS-COV-2 Now now letrsquos notgo off-topic here I know you might be wondering

what yoursquod do if you were in a Republicanrsquos shoesBut thatrsquos not the point

In the end it seldom matters whether you are arepublican or a liberal especially in situations

like these What matters in the end is if you didgo out without wearing that infuriating

smothering mask And if you contracted thewretched virus because of it If yes hard luck

Yoursquore nothing more than one of the 841 millionpeople who have it Thatrsquos all that people aroundthe world will see Not your gender not your ageand certainly not your political belief Of course

there will be studies about the correlation ofthese factors with the incidence rate of the

infections but thatrsquos another story altogether andnot one possibly as broad as the one we talk

aboutMoreover the correlation must not be

confused with causation Now perhaps thatrsquosa story for another day But think about it thisway whether you go to college or drop out of

high school whether you choose to live ordecide to die no matter the decision no

matter your inclination or choice whetheryou like it or not you will be nothing more

than a statisticIt might sound a bit gloomy to be honestWhen I first thought about it I felt almostinsignificant Like a tiny speck of dust in a

galaxy of stars Alas isnrsquot that all that we arethough

A pale blue dot in an ocean of stars Ourplanet one among millions or perhaps

billions of others All 78 billion of us fightingfor a place in the world knowing full well we

canrsquot all possibly have it It might makeanyone feel overwhelmed but therersquos

something about that that is so challenging itis almost inspiring We all know statistics andwe all know life But the true beauty of life lies

in the ability to defy statistics Only onequestion remains are you up for the

challenge

It wonrsquot be any exaggeration If itrsquos said that tools of statistician are used in almost all fields ofcalculation

Be it research finance sports marketing sales health care or population countingIt is a crucial process behind How we make discoveries in science

Making decisions or claiming predictions It plays a crucial play in all situationsStats is involved everywhere from collection to interpretation From explanation to

presentationStatistics helps avoiding a wide variety of analytical traps By making sure that study follow

apt methods in all aspectsChallenging your own assumptions Or drawing data-based conclusions

Statistics is always there Making things crisp and clear

It always seems impossible until it is done

If it makes you happyit doesnt have to make sense to others

When you cant find the sunshinebe the sunshine

Either you run the day or let the day run you

When you focus on the goodthe good gets better

It takes the same energy to worry as it doesto be positive so use your energy to thinkpositive and positive things will happen

The one thing that doesnt abide by majority rule is a persons conscience

Make happiness a priority and be gentle with yourself in the process

College the best start to unfold lifes beauty

Goodbye to the mistakes weve made remember the laughs weve shared

Will never forget these years

People are capable at anytime in their lives of doing what they dream of

productivity and replace it by degree ofpresence

May every sunrise bring you hopeMay every sunset bring you peace

If you dont believe in yourself thenno one is going to believe in you So

Believe in Yourself

Be who you are and say what you feelbecause those who mind donrsquot matter and

those who matter donrsquot mind

Success is liking yourself liking what you do and liking how you do it

Happiness is a by-product of an effort to make someone else happy

If you are not willing to risk the unusual you will have to settle for the ordinary

Always keep it clean simple and precise

Hustle until you no longer have to introduce yourself

Dream it Wish it Do it

There are no limits to what you can accomplish except the limits you place

on your own thinking

The greatness of humanity is not in being human but in being humane

You will be exactly as happy as you decide

One thing to learn from the sun is thatwhenever a cloud tries to hinder itslight it finds its own path to shine

Excellence is not achieved - it is aspired to and trekked towards The tougher the trek

the better the views

I think the day we figure out everythingabout our lives is the day we die

Finding your magic can be scary but owning it will be EUPHORIA

An approximate answer to the right problem is worth a good deal more than

an exact answer to an approximate problem

Our greatest weakness lies in giving up The most certain way to succeed is always to try just one more time

The aim is to live happily heal throughevery situation and learn everything new

with every step taken

Believe in progress not perfection

Let me tell you why Python is a number oneoption for data analysis-

By Tanisha Gupta ( 3rd Year )

gtgt Easy to LearnBeing involved in development for web servicesmobile apps as well as coding Yes it is one ofthe most famous language characteristics Morethan that a low and thus fast learning curve isthe next pre-eminence of Python whencomparing it with older languages on offer

gtgt Well-SupportedHaving the experience of using some tools forfree you probably know that it is a challenge toget decent support but thatrsquos not the case withPython Despite the high simplicity there can besituations when you still need help with PythonBeing in widespread use like in industries oracademic areas Python has a broad array ofhelpful libraries with tons of helpful and supportmaterials The great benefit is that all thelibraries are available at no cost

gtgt ScalabilityThis Pythonrsquos feature is closely connected withthe previous option Comparing with otherlanguages like R Java python is much fasterand more scalable Therefore it is good invarious fields that can solve a wide range ofproblems Thatrsquos why many companies havemigrated to Python

(34)

gtgt Huge Libraries CollectionAs I have already mentioned Python is one ofthe most supported languages nowadays Ithas a long list of totally free libraries availablefor all the users Thatrsquos a key factor that givesa strong push for Python If yoursquore involved inthe field more likely you are acquainted withsuch names as Pandas SciPy Stats ModelsMatplotlib etc libraries that are intensivelyutilized in the data science community Hereyou can easily find a solution needed forhassle-free work without additional expenses

gtgt Graphics and Visualization ToolsItrsquos a well-known fact that visual information ismuch easier to understand operate andremember So here is some good news foryou There is a pack of diverse visualizationoptions available that makes python a must-have tool not only for data analysis but for alldata science You can make the data moreaccessible and easier to use by means ofcreating various charts and graphics as wellas interactive plots Always remember that thesuccess of your business directly depends onthe ability to extract knowledge and insightsfrom data to make effective strategicdecisions stay competitive and makeprogress and Python is the internationallyclaimed programming language to help us inhandling our data in a better manner for avariety of causes

A registered clinical psychologist in Honk Kongnamed Zanonia Chiu said - ldquoGoing to school hadbeen a struggle for some children (withdepression) prior to the pandemic but at leastthey had school routines to stick with Now thatschools are closed some lock themselves upinside their rooms for weeks refusing to takeshowers eat or leave their beds For somechildren with depression there will beconsiderable difficulties adjusting back to normallife when college resumesrdquo and according to anonline survey conducted with the study periodfrom April 2020 to May 2020 - Total 531372 and 243 had symptoms of depressionanxiety and stress respectively with varyingseverities (N=727)The conclusion of the surveyindicated that COVID-19 is building psychologicaldistress among vulnerable college students asthey are forced to stay home along withworsening financial situations lifestyle changesfamily situations and time spent on variousactivities

Sounds so interesting and happening right Itis true indeed but along with stressful timeaside Along with the perks of enjoyingfreedom more than ever there comesacademic pressure tasks of separation fromfamilies career building futureresponsibilities etc Boarding on with thecollege life is a stressful time for manystudents thereby affecting their mental healthMental health problems are very commonamong college students and have been anincreasing concern However the COVID-19pandemic situation has brought this vulnerablepopulation into renewed focus Following thepandemic schools colleges offices andalmost every place that involved humaninteraction was shut It is important to note thatcollegeschool or even a normal routine areimportant coping mechanisms for youngpeople with mental health issues and wheneverything is shut down they lose an anchor inlife and their symptoms could relapse

Mental health among students is a big concernhowever ldquoUNTREATEDrdquo mental illnesses are amuch bigger and exponentially growingconcern Reaching out is an important step formental health issues to be addressed andtreated but reach out to who This is the pointwhere our institution should take over Collegesplay a big role in this stage Colleges doaddress this issue through means of orientationsessions and workshops but there is still a needto address mental health more directly Themethods to address mental health issuesshould be accessible feasible and affordablefor the students For example at NorthwesternUniversity student feedback led orientationenabled organizers to shift their focus fromexpert speakers to student testimonials Meansto address the issue vary from traditionalpresentations and panel discussions to roleplays small group discussions etc Herestudents learn how to recognize mental illnesssymptoms where to find resources andsupport and how to talk to friends who mightbe struggling

The findings of this study highlighted theurgent need to develop interventions andpreventive strategies to address the mentalhealth of college students Another InterviewSurvey study conducted by the Journal ofMedical Internet Research highlighted that of195 students 138 (71) indicated increasedstress and anxiety due to the COVID-19outbreak Multiple stressors were identified thatcontributed to the increased levels of stressanxiety and depressive thoughts amongstudents These included fear and worry abouttheir own health and of their loved ones(177195 91 reported negative impacts ofthe pandemic) difficulty in concentrating(173195 89) disruptions to sleepingpatterns (168195 86) decreased socialinteractions due to physical distancing(167195 86) and increased concerns onacademic performance (159195 82) Tocope with stress and anxiety participants havesought support from others and helpedthemselves by adopting either negative orpositive coping mechanisms It is important toknow that creating awareness about any issueis never enough action is what is neededTaking leave from workschool because of a fluor a fracture is acceptable and might even helpin the process of cure and healing howevertaking time off because of stress from a mentalillness such as anxiety or depressionunfortunately is not

lsquoOnline classrsquo is a term which most of us werenrsquotfamiliar with Before this pandemic we neverthought of getting education at home Covid hasaffected all of our lives In past pursuingeducation meant going to the schoolcollege Butnow the whole scenario has changed Childrenare studying and attending classes from homeJust like there are two sides of a coin onlineclasses also have some advantages anddisadvantages

Starting from the advantages it saves time forboth students and teachers as they donrsquot haveto travel All they have to do is to join throughtheir mobiles or laptops Secondly studentsdonrsquot have to necessarily buy books from theshops like they had to do in offline classesbecause they are given pdfs from which they canstudy Therefore it saves money Third it can beattended from anywhere in the world Unlike inthe offline classes where we had to gather at aparticular place Fourth computer basedpractical can be easily understood as studentscan share their screen with teachers Also it iseasy for teachers to explain a topic with the helpof pictures or animations which can be easilyfound on the internet

Last but not the least Parents can keep an eyeon their children whether they are studyingproperly or not

Apart from advantages it has somedisadvantages too First sitting beside thecomputer or mobile for hours affects the eyesightof both students and teachers Doctors arereporting many cases of eyestrain amongchildren since the online classes have startedSecondly students are becoming lazy as theydonrsquot have to go out of their home Like theproverb lsquoAll work and no play makes Jack a dullboyrsquo is really happening Third students canbunk in the online classes easily As they haveno fear of punishment they learned to disobeyand disrespect teachers Fourth students havebeen given lots of assignments as a result ofwhich most students are copying othersassignments and are not learning anything newFifth it is very difficult to communicate asteachers cannot give attention to each studentLastly it can be concluded that no matter howthe classes are being held a student must bededicated and sincere towards their studiesAfter all onersquos future depends on what they do intheir present

An actuary is a business executive professionally trained in the mathematical sciences Actuariesspecialize in the evaluation of financial riskmdashmost often in the context of life health and casualtyinsurance where they design analyse and refine varied programs to meet the insurance needs ofsociety A growing number of actuaries work in the areas of assetliability management and risk managementSome of these actuaries are employed by investment and consulting firms others are employed byinsurance companies

Actuaries have been called financial architects and social mathematicians because their combinedanalytical and business skills help solve a growing variety of financial and social problems Theactuarial profession is a demanding yet rewarding career choice

In a world bombarded with numerical information informed decisions rely on the ability to separatefact from fiction by applying valid statistical analyses and visualizations Statisticians can providecrucial guidance in determining what information is reliable and which predictions may be trustedThey often help search for clues to the solution of a scientific mystery and sometimes keepinvestigators from being misled by false impressions

Thousands of statisticians work in medicine law agriculture public policy marketing manufacturingengineering and other fields in the social and natural sciences The diversity of applications is anexciting aspect of the field and is one more reason why the demand for well-trained statisticianscontinues to be strong

Poetry

Contributed by Dr Komal Goel

(41)

Contributed by Dr Meenu Goel

The curtain lifts on Bryant Elementary Schools Spring Recorder Recital Ninety third-graders fumble with their instruments take a breath

and blow Their parents braced breathe too

as Hot Crossed Buns emerges a little scattershot -- the Normal Distribution brought to life

By Go Tell Aunt Rhodie the audience

is moved by their sheer pretty-goodness though one kid knocks her music to the floor

and another squeaks to demonstrate

the tail two standard deviations below the mean The curve implies

that somewhere on stage another kid

just played a note so sweet he might shatter Mrs Wedermeyers glasses And if

there are a mother and father who think

that child is theirs may they be forgiven even if the child shining in their eyes

is moving his fingers slightly out of rhythm

even if hes never led the bell curve in his life In consecutive measures of almost unison

its easy to believe these children are musicians

Their parents do so stirred by Ode to Joy they rise to their feet with the final phrase

clapping from the darkened auditorium

at once as one heroically like the parents theyve meant to be

EK NAYA SAFAR

Mubarak ho apko zindgi ka naya safar

Naya hai sheher nai hai dagar

Chut gaye kuch rishte purane

But donrsquot worry yaar mil jayenge naye diwane

Kuch tum jaise khuch tum se alag

So just smile and start a new life

Dosti yaari ko zara side mai rakh ke

Edhar gaur famiye janab

Course toh tumne acha chuna hai

Kuch socha hai ya ese hi liya hai

College mai admission jab hota hai

Toh andar khushi ke fuvare futne lagte hai

Lekin syllabus o dekh kar yeh bhi dagmagane lagte hai

Mana CP paas hai vahi maat ghumte rehna

Varna paper mai cafeacute ki menu sheet hi likhte rehna

Donrsquot take a chill pill coz yaha ki teachers hai thori strict

Just because they want you to be the best

Ab kya kare college ka har din mamuli nahi hota

Aur 9 se 4 sirf parai nahi hoti

Gumo firo esh karo but parna na bhulo

Mana es saal kuch zyada hi speed breakers hai

But the best part is hum sab bhi toh sath hai

PONDERINGAll of humanity is but a set of numbers You and I

are nothing more than a statisticJust think about any decision you had to take

recently No matter your choice you might findyourself ending up only as an infinitesimal

decimal in the final percentage of a statisticianrsquosdiscourse Let me give you an example pertinent

to the world we live in today Say yoursquore arepublican and have to decide whether to wear a

mask or not Naturally your political instinctmight warn you against it However you might

still be inclined to wear one because yoursquoregenuinely scared about what the ldquoliberalsrdquo have

to say about the SARS-COV-2 Now now letrsquos notgo off-topic here I know you might be wondering

what yoursquod do if you were in a Republicanrsquos shoesBut thatrsquos not the point

In the end it seldom matters whether you are arepublican or a liberal especially in situations

like these What matters in the end is if you didgo out without wearing that infuriating

smothering mask And if you contracted thewretched virus because of it If yes hard luck

Yoursquore nothing more than one of the 841 millionpeople who have it Thatrsquos all that people aroundthe world will see Not your gender not your ageand certainly not your political belief Of course

there will be studies about the correlation ofthese factors with the incidence rate of the

infections but thatrsquos another story altogether andnot one possibly as broad as the one we talk

aboutMoreover the correlation must not be

confused with causation Now perhaps thatrsquosa story for another day But think about it thisway whether you go to college or drop out of

high school whether you choose to live ordecide to die no matter the decision no

matter your inclination or choice whetheryou like it or not you will be nothing more

than a statisticIt might sound a bit gloomy to be honestWhen I first thought about it I felt almostinsignificant Like a tiny speck of dust in a

galaxy of stars Alas isnrsquot that all that we arethough

A pale blue dot in an ocean of stars Ourplanet one among millions or perhaps

billions of others All 78 billion of us fightingfor a place in the world knowing full well we

canrsquot all possibly have it It might makeanyone feel overwhelmed but therersquos

something about that that is so challenging itis almost inspiring We all know statistics andwe all know life But the true beauty of life lies

in the ability to defy statistics Only onequestion remains are you up for the

challenge

It wonrsquot be any exaggeration If itrsquos said that tools of statistician are used in almost all fields ofcalculation

Be it research finance sports marketing sales health care or population countingIt is a crucial process behind How we make discoveries in science

Making decisions or claiming predictions It plays a crucial play in all situationsStats is involved everywhere from collection to interpretation From explanation to

presentationStatistics helps avoiding a wide variety of analytical traps By making sure that study follow

apt methods in all aspectsChallenging your own assumptions Or drawing data-based conclusions

Statistics is always there Making things crisp and clear

It always seems impossible until it is done

If it makes you happyit doesnt have to make sense to others

When you cant find the sunshinebe the sunshine

Either you run the day or let the day run you

When you focus on the goodthe good gets better

It takes the same energy to worry as it doesto be positive so use your energy to thinkpositive and positive things will happen

The one thing that doesnt abide by majority rule is a persons conscience

Make happiness a priority and be gentle with yourself in the process

College the best start to unfold lifes beauty

Goodbye to the mistakes weve made remember the laughs weve shared

Will never forget these years

People are capable at anytime in their lives of doing what they dream of

Believe in Yourself

Be who you are and say what you feelbecause those who mind donrsquot matter and

those who matter donrsquot mind

Success is liking yourself liking what you do and liking how you do it

Happiness is a by-product of an effort to make someone else happy

If you are not willing to risk the unusual you will have to settle for the ordinary

Always keep it clean simple and precise

Hustle until you no longer have to introduce yourself

Dream it Wish it Do it

ALUMINI SPEAKSIts been a privilege to be the leading batch of the Department of StatisticsMata Sundri College None less than a roller coaster with every newchallenge we have rocked it on together With the amazing faculty it neverfelt like we needed the Seniors We have created our paths and wont letour juniors struggle for it always there to their rescue I have been a part of the statistics society for all the years and haveexperienced the best of it I see the society and the department growingwhich surely adds a feather to my capWishing for the best of it with all my heartI wish I could relive those best three years spent at the department witheveryone in my batch and the teachersGood luck

Sometimes the most beautiful things happen in the most unexpected waysI still canrsquot get over the fact that my 3 years-long and the beautiful journeycame to an end I never thought that I would make such beautiful bonds incollege be it with the teachers or my classmates Mata Sundri College will always have a special place in my heart and in mylife It is this place that made me realize my true potential I entered thecollege with almost no expectations But looking back at the time I nowfeel that those years were the most special and the most beautiful onesThe kind of love and support I received from all the teachers cannot bedescribed in words The personal connection which I still have with myteachers would be missing had I been in some other college I amextremely grateful to them It was because of them that I started loving mysubject Statistics All the hard work put in by my teachers and by myselfpaid off in the end Never did I imagine that I would become the Universitytopper I still feel that I am living in a dream

It is one of my greatest accomplishments Receiving the Medal from theHonrsquoble Education Minister Shri Ramesh Pokhriyal was a matter of pride Ifeel so happy seeing my parents and teachers being proud of me I surelyknow that whenever Irsquoll need some help in the future my teachers willalways be there to guide me The only regret is that we didnrsquot get a chance to greet the teachers and ourfellow classmates one last time due to the pandemic But keeping thataside I will always cherish my journey Thank you Mata Sundri College forthe amazing experience

What comes to your mind when you first hear theword Statisticsrsquo Graphs numbers or lines butwhat if I say that statistics comes with enumerablecareer opportunities The options are endless andthe jobs are just a little But what is the barrier thatholds us from thinking of Statistics as a separatesubject and just an extension of MathematicsMost of us still donrsquot know what statistics is allabout If we tell someone that we are a student ofStatistics they might just think itrsquos not a careeroption Even Google offers with a line explanationof Statistics ldquonumbers that have been collectedin order to provide information aboutsomethingrdquo Statistics is defined as theaggregate of facts affected to a market extent bymultiplicity of causes numerically expressed orestimated according to a reasonable standard ofaccuracy collected in a systematic manner forpredetermined purpose and placed in relation toeach other It is the art of learning from data It isconcerned with learning from data and theiranalysis As a plural it means numerical dataarising in any sphere of human experience thatis mostly unknown sources working togetherwhereas singularly it refers to the collection andinterpretation of numerical data The branchlsquoStatisticsrsquo is broadly divided into two formsDescriptive and Inferential Statistics DescriptiveStatistics involves collection analysation andcharacterization of data It includes graphicalmethods and numeric measures InferentialStatistic involves estimation and conclusion ofdata that has been classified under descriptivestatistics

Statistics is used in a variety of fields likecommerce trade economics chemistryastronomy industry etc Every field comes withone or the other usage of statistics Whether it bethe biggest of MNCrsquos or even a tea stall holdereveryone requires the usage of statistical tools todraw conclusion on what step they need to takenext The levels of profit or losses to obtainmaximum results from minimum resources allthis needs carefully collected data and thendrawing valid inference from it by using variousstatistical tools and techniques Even in day today life the change in prices of goodsvegetables and the trivial yet most importantdecision of whether to buy a new pair of shoes orclothes so that the house budget is not affectedcomes under Statistics The Government usesStatistics at a wide level whether it be forconducting a population census prediction ofoutcome of elections or drawing conclusions onwhether a new law should be passed or not Allthis requires Statistics It eliminates the chancesof uncertainty and predictions by laying the factsand figures required to reach to a correctdecision Even in the outbreak of this globalpandemic Statistics was extensively used be itto know numbers of cases rising daily number ofhospital facilities and medicine required therequirement of vaccines or the recovery ratesand so on The graphs drawn helped the generalpublic to easily understand the prevailingscenario and progress rate Thus Statistics is awide concept that is a helping hand in thisgrowing economy

Codes canrsquot lie but comments can mightseems to be simple yet very meaningful

We all live in the digital era of hightechnologies smart devices and mobilesolutions Data is an essential aspect of anybusiness Itrsquos crucial to gather process andanalyse the data flow and to do that as quicklyand accurately as possible Nowadays the datavolume can be large which makes informationhandling time-consuming and expensive Dueto this precise reason the data science industryis growing at a rapid pace creating newpossibilities as well as opportunities and pythonis one of the solutions to understand andanalyse such big data sets It is a cross-functional language that has lots of advantagesto offer This object-oriented programminglanguage is commonly used to streamline largecomplex data sets Not only this it has a highreadability that helps data analysts to save timeby typing fewer lines of code for accomplishingthe tasks Therefore itrsquos not surprising at allthat it is claimed to be the preferredprogramming language for data science

Let me tell you why Python is a number oneoption for data analysis-

By Tanisha Gupta ( 3rd Year )

gtgt Easy to LearnBeing involved in development for web servicesmobile apps as well as coding Yes it is one ofthe most famous language characteristics Morethan that a low and thus fast learning curve isthe next pre-eminence of Python whencomparing it with older languages on offer

gtgt Well-SupportedHaving the experience of using some tools forfree you probably know that it is a challenge toget decent support but thatrsquos not the case withPython Despite the high simplicity there can besituations when you still need help with PythonBeing in widespread use like in industries oracademic areas Python has a broad array ofhelpful libraries with tons of helpful and supportmaterials The great benefit is that all thelibraries are available at no cost

gtgt ScalabilityThis Pythonrsquos feature is closely connected withthe previous option Comparing with otherlanguages like R Java python is much fasterand more scalable Therefore it is good invarious fields that can solve a wide range ofproblems Thatrsquos why many companies havemigrated to Python

(34)

gtgt Huge Libraries CollectionAs I have already mentioned Python is one ofthe most supported languages nowadays Ithas a long list of totally free libraries availablefor all the users Thatrsquos a key factor that givesa strong push for Python If yoursquore involved inthe field more likely you are acquainted withsuch names as Pandas SciPy Stats ModelsMatplotlib etc libraries that are intensivelyutilized in the data science community Hereyou can easily find a solution needed forhassle-free work without additional expenses

gtgt Graphics and Visualization ToolsItrsquos a well-known fact that visual information ismuch easier to understand operate andremember So here is some good news foryou There is a pack of diverse visualizationoptions available that makes python a must-have tool not only for data analysis but for alldata science You can make the data moreaccessible and easier to use by means ofcreating various charts and graphics as wellas interactive plots Always remember that thesuccess of your business directly depends onthe ability to extract knowledge and insightsfrom data to make effective strategicdecisions stay competitive and makeprogress and Python is the internationallyclaimed programming language to help us inhandling our data in a better manner for avariety of causes

ldquoCollege life is known as one of the most memorable years of astudentrsquos life exposing them to new experiences like meeting new

people learning new things exploring places etcrdquo

A registered clinical psychologist in Honk Kongnamed Zanonia Chiu said - ldquoGoing to school hadbeen a struggle for some children (withdepression) prior to the pandemic but at leastthey had school routines to stick with Now thatschools are closed some lock themselves upinside their rooms for weeks refusing to takeshowers eat or leave their beds For somechildren with depression there will beconsiderable difficulties adjusting back to normallife when college resumesrdquo and according to anonline survey conducted with the study periodfrom April 2020 to May 2020 - Total 531372 and 243 had symptoms of depressionanxiety and stress respectively with varyingseverities (N=727)The conclusion of the surveyindicated that COVID-19 is building psychologicaldistress among vulnerable college students asthey are forced to stay home along withworsening financial situations lifestyle changesfamily situations and time spent on variousactivities

Sounds so interesting and happening right Itis true indeed but along with stressful timeaside Along with the perks of enjoyingfreedom more than ever there comesacademic pressure tasks of separation fromfamilies career building futureresponsibilities etc Boarding on with thecollege life is a stressful time for manystudents thereby affecting their mental healthMental health problems are very commonamong college students and have been anincreasing concern However the COVID-19pandemic situation has brought this vulnerablepopulation into renewed focus Following thepandemic schools colleges offices andalmost every place that involved humaninteraction was shut It is important to note thatcollegeschool or even a normal routine areimportant coping mechanisms for youngpeople with mental health issues and wheneverything is shut down they lose an anchor inlife and their symptoms could relapse

Mental health among students is a big concernhowever ldquoUNTREATEDrdquo mental illnesses are amuch bigger and exponentially growingconcern Reaching out is an important step formental health issues to be addressed andtreated but reach out to who This is the pointwhere our institution should take over Collegesplay a big role in this stage Colleges doaddress this issue through means of orientationsessions and workshops but there is still a needto address mental health more directly Themethods to address mental health issuesshould be accessible feasible and affordablefor the students For example at NorthwesternUniversity student feedback led orientationenabled organizers to shift their focus fromexpert speakers to student testimonials Meansto address the issue vary from traditionalpresentations and panel discussions to roleplays small group discussions etc Herestudents learn how to recognize mental illnesssymptoms where to find resources andsupport and how to talk to friends who mightbe struggling

The findings of this study highlighted theurgent need to develop interventions andpreventive strategies to address the mentalhealth of college students Another InterviewSurvey study conducted by the Journal ofMedical Internet Research highlighted that of195 students 138 (71) indicated increasedstress and anxiety due to the COVID-19outbreak Multiple stressors were identified thatcontributed to the increased levels of stressanxiety and depressive thoughts amongstudents These included fear and worry abouttheir own health and of their loved ones(177195 91 reported negative impacts ofthe pandemic) difficulty in concentrating(173195 89) disruptions to sleepingpatterns (168195 86) decreased socialinteractions due to physical distancing(167195 86) and increased concerns onacademic performance (159195 82) Tocope with stress and anxiety participants havesought support from others and helpedthemselves by adopting either negative orpositive coping mechanisms It is important toknow that creating awareness about any issueis never enough action is what is neededTaking leave from workschool because of a fluor a fracture is acceptable and might even helpin the process of cure and healing howevertaking time off because of stress from a mentalillness such as anxiety or depressionunfortunately is not

lsquoOnline classrsquo is a term which most of us werenrsquotfamiliar with Before this pandemic we neverthought of getting education at home Covid hasaffected all of our lives In past pursuingeducation meant going to the schoolcollege Butnow the whole scenario has changed Childrenare studying and attending classes from homeJust like there are two sides of a coin onlineclasses also have some advantages anddisadvantages

Starting from the advantages it saves time forboth students and teachers as they donrsquot haveto travel All they have to do is to join throughtheir mobiles or laptops Secondly studentsdonrsquot have to necessarily buy books from theshops like they had to do in offline classesbecause they are given pdfs from which they canstudy Therefore it saves money Third it can beattended from anywhere in the world Unlike inthe offline classes where we had to gather at aparticular place Fourth computer basedpractical can be easily understood as studentscan share their screen with teachers Also it iseasy for teachers to explain a topic with the helpof pictures or animations which can be easilyfound on the internet

Last but not the least Parents can keep an eyeon their children whether they are studyingproperly or not

Apart from advantages it has somedisadvantages too First sitting beside thecomputer or mobile for hours affects the eyesightof both students and teachers Doctors arereporting many cases of eyestrain amongchildren since the online classes have startedSecondly students are becoming lazy as theydonrsquot have to go out of their home Like theproverb lsquoAll work and no play makes Jack a dullboyrsquo is really happening Third students canbunk in the online classes easily As they haveno fear of punishment they learned to disobeyand disrespect teachers Fourth students havebeen given lots of assignments as a result ofwhich most students are copying othersassignments and are not learning anything newFifth it is very difficult to communicate asteachers cannot give attention to each studentLastly it can be concluded that no matter howthe classes are being held a student must bededicated and sincere towards their studiesAfter all onersquos future depends on what they do intheir present

An actuary is a business executive professionally trained in the mathematical sciences Actuariesspecialize in the evaluation of financial riskmdashmost often in the context of life health and casualtyinsurance where they design analyse and refine varied programs to meet the insurance needs ofsociety A growing number of actuaries work in the areas of assetliability management and risk managementSome of these actuaries are employed by investment and consulting firms others are employed byinsurance companies

Actuaries have been called financial architects and social mathematicians because their combinedanalytical and business skills help solve a growing variety of financial and social problems Theactuarial profession is a demanding yet rewarding career choice

In a world bombarded with numerical information informed decisions rely on the ability to separatefact from fiction by applying valid statistical analyses and visualizations Statisticians can providecrucial guidance in determining what information is reliable and which predictions may be trustedThey often help search for clues to the solution of a scientific mystery and sometimes keepinvestigators from being misled by false impressions

Thousands of statisticians work in medicine law agriculture public policy marketing manufacturingengineering and other fields in the social and natural sciences The diversity of applications is anexciting aspect of the field and is one more reason why the demand for well-trained statisticianscontinues to be strong

Poetry

Contributed by Dr Komal Goel

(41)

Contributed by Dr Meenu Goel

The curtain lifts on Bryant Elementary Schools Spring Recorder Recital Ninety third-graders fumble with their instruments take a breath

and blow Their parents braced breathe too

as Hot Crossed Buns emerges a little scattershot -- the Normal Distribution brought to life

By Go Tell Aunt Rhodie the audience

is moved by their sheer pretty-goodness though one kid knocks her music to the floor

and another squeaks to demonstrate

the tail two standard deviations below the mean The curve implies

that somewhere on stage another kid

just played a note so sweet he might shatter Mrs Wedermeyers glasses And if

there are a mother and father who think

that child is theirs may they be forgiven even if the child shining in their eyes

is moving his fingers slightly out of rhythm

even if hes never led the bell curve in his life In consecutive measures of almost unison

its easy to believe these children are musicians

Their parents do so stirred by Ode to Joy they rise to their feet with the final phrase

clapping from the darkened auditorium

at once as one heroically like the parents theyve meant to be

EK NAYA SAFAR

Mubarak ho apko zindgi ka naya safar

Naya hai sheher nai hai dagar

Chut gaye kuch rishte purane

But donrsquot worry yaar mil jayenge naye diwane

Kuch tum jaise khuch tum se alag

So just smile and start a new life

Dosti yaari ko zara side mai rakh ke

Edhar gaur famiye janab

Course toh tumne acha chuna hai

Kuch socha hai ya ese hi liya hai

College mai admission jab hota hai

Toh andar khushi ke fuvare futne lagte hai

Lekin syllabus o dekh kar yeh bhi dagmagane lagte hai

Mana CP paas hai vahi maat ghumte rehna

Varna paper mai cafeacute ki menu sheet hi likhte rehna

Donrsquot take a chill pill coz yaha ki teachers hai thori strict

Just because they want you to be the best

Ab kya kare college ka har din mamuli nahi hota

Aur 9 se 4 sirf parai nahi hoti

Gumo firo esh karo but parna na bhulo

Mana es saal kuch zyada hi speed breakers hai

But the best part is hum sab bhi toh sath hai

PONDERINGAll of humanity is but a set of numbers You and I

are nothing more than a statisticJust think about any decision you had to take

recently No matter your choice you might findyourself ending up only as an infinitesimal

decimal in the final percentage of a statisticianrsquosdiscourse Let me give you an example pertinent

to the world we live in today Say yoursquore arepublican and have to decide whether to wear a

mask or not Naturally your political instinctmight warn you against it However you might

still be inclined to wear one because yoursquoregenuinely scared about what the ldquoliberalsrdquo have

to say about the SARS-COV-2 Now now letrsquos notgo off-topic here I know you might be wondering

what yoursquod do if you were in a Republicanrsquos shoesBut thatrsquos not the point

In the end it seldom matters whether you are arepublican or a liberal especially in situations

like these What matters in the end is if you didgo out without wearing that infuriating

smothering mask And if you contracted thewretched virus because of it If yes hard luck

Yoursquore nothing more than one of the 841 millionpeople who have it Thatrsquos all that people aroundthe world will see Not your gender not your ageand certainly not your political belief Of course

there will be studies about the correlation ofthese factors with the incidence rate of the

infections but thatrsquos another story altogether andnot one possibly as broad as the one we talk

aboutMoreover the correlation must not be

confused with causation Now perhaps thatrsquosa story for another day But think about it thisway whether you go to college or drop out of

high school whether you choose to live ordecide to die no matter the decision no

matter your inclination or choice whetheryou like it or not you will be nothing more

than a statisticIt might sound a bit gloomy to be honestWhen I first thought about it I felt almostinsignificant Like a tiny speck of dust in a

galaxy of stars Alas isnrsquot that all that we arethough

A pale blue dot in an ocean of stars Ourplanet one among millions or perhaps

billions of others All 78 billion of us fightingfor a place in the world knowing full well we

canrsquot all possibly have it It might makeanyone feel overwhelmed but therersquos

something about that that is so challenging itis almost inspiring We all know statistics andwe all know life But the true beauty of life lies

in the ability to defy statistics Only onequestion remains are you up for the

challenge

It wonrsquot be any exaggeration If itrsquos said that tools of statistician are used in almost all fields ofcalculation

Be it research finance sports marketing sales health care or population countingIt is a crucial process behind How we make discoveries in science

Making decisions or claiming predictions It plays a crucial play in all situationsStats is involved everywhere from collection to interpretation From explanation to

presentationStatistics helps avoiding a wide variety of analytical traps By making sure that study follow

apt methods in all aspectsChallenging your own assumptions Or drawing data-based conclusions

Statistics is always there Making things crisp and clear

Donrsquot buy that lottery ticket Donrsquot wish for a fallen wicket

Donrsquot predict vivid sunshine or rain Donrsquot bother to cry or complain

Statistically speaking it may all be in vain If you didnrsquot make it the first time why try

again

And if you donrsquot buy wish try andpredict

Why also bother living the life you claim tohave lived

When you focus on the goodthe good gets better

It takes the same energy to worry as it doesto be positive so use your energy to thinkpositive and positive things will happen

The one thing that doesnt abide by majority rule is a persons conscience

Make happiness a priority and be gentle with yourself in the process

College the best start to unfold lifes beauty

Goodbye to the mistakes weve made remember the laughs weve shared

Will never forget these years

People are capable at anytime in their lives of doing what they dream of

Nehal DixitStop measuring your degree of

productivity and replace it by degree ofpresence

Your time is limited so donrsquot waste it livingsomeone elsersquos life Donrsquot be trapped by

dogma ndash which is living with the results ofother peoplersquos thinking

I know that I will look back on these days as being the happiest of my life

Sometimes you will never know the value of a moment until it becomes a memory

Enjoyed college a lot it lasted almost as longas the lunch breaks

And thats a wrap on a degree where I acted like I knew what I was doing

The way to success holds a path of fight andIm sure to get it because look on the right rarr

May every sunrise bring you hopeMay every sunset bring you peace

If you dont believe in yourself thenno one is going to believe in you So

Believe in Yourself

Be who you are and say what you feelbecause those who mind donrsquot matter and

those who matter donrsquot mind

Success is liking yourself liking what you do and liking how you do it

Happiness is a by-product of an effort to make someone else happy

If you are not willing to risk the unusual you will have to settle for the ordinary

Always keep it clean simple and precise

Hustle until you no longer have to introduce yourself

Dream it Wish it Do it

There are no limits to what you can accomplish except the limits you place

on your own thinking

The greatness of humanity is not in being human but in being humane

You will be exactly as happy as you decide

One thing to learn from the sun is thatwhenever a cloud tries to hinder itslight it finds its own path to shine

Excellence is not achieved - it is aspired to and trekked towards The tougher the trek

the better the views

I think the day we figure out everythingabout our lives is the day we die

Finding your magic can be scary but owning it will be EUPHORIA

An approximate answer to the right problem is worth a good deal more than

an exact answer to an approximate problem

Our greatest weakness lies in giving up The most certain way to succeed is always to try just one more time

The aim is to live happily heal throughevery situation and learn everything new

with every step taken

Believe in progress not perfection

ALUMINI SPEAKSIts been a privilege to be the leading batch of the Department of StatisticsMata Sundri College None less than a roller coaster with every newchallenge we have rocked it on together With the amazing faculty it neverfelt like we needed the Seniors We have created our paths and wont letour juniors struggle for it always there to their rescue I have been a part of the statistics society for all the years and haveexperienced the best of it I see the society and the department growingwhich surely adds a feather to my capWishing for the best of it with all my heartI wish I could relive those best three years spent at the department witheveryone in my batch and the teachersGood luck

Sometimes the most beautiful things happen in the most unexpected waysI still canrsquot get over the fact that my 3 years-long and the beautiful journeycame to an end I never thought that I would make such beautiful bonds incollege be it with the teachers or my classmates Mata Sundri College will always have a special place in my heart and in mylife It is this place that made me realize my true potential I entered thecollege with almost no expectations But looking back at the time I nowfeel that those years were the most special and the most beautiful onesThe kind of love and support I received from all the teachers cannot bedescribed in words The personal connection which I still have with myteachers would be missing had I been in some other college I amextremely grateful to them It was because of them that I started loving mysubject Statistics All the hard work put in by my teachers and by myselfpaid off in the end Never did I imagine that I would become the Universitytopper I still feel that I am living in a dream

It is one of my greatest accomplishments Receiving the Medal from theHonrsquoble Education Minister Shri Ramesh Pokhriyal was a matter of pride Ifeel so happy seeing my parents and teachers being proud of me I surelyknow that whenever Irsquoll need some help in the future my teachers willalways be there to guide me The only regret is that we didnrsquot get a chance to greet the teachers and ourfellow classmates one last time due to the pandemic But keeping thataside I will always cherish my journey Thank you Mata Sundri College forthe amazing experience

What comes to your mind when you first hear theword Statisticsrsquo Graphs numbers or lines butwhat if I say that statistics comes with enumerablecareer opportunities The options are endless andthe jobs are just a little But what is the barrier thatholds us from thinking of Statistics as a separatesubject and just an extension of MathematicsMost of us still donrsquot know what statistics is allabout If we tell someone that we are a student ofStatistics they might just think itrsquos not a careeroption Even Google offers with a line explanationof Statistics ldquonumbers that have been collectedin order to provide information aboutsomethingrdquo Statistics is defined as theaggregate of facts affected to a market extent bymultiplicity of causes numerically expressed orestimated according to a reasonable standard ofaccuracy collected in a systematic manner forpredetermined purpose and placed in relation toeach other It is the art of learning from data It isconcerned with learning from data and theiranalysis As a plural it means numerical dataarising in any sphere of human experience thatis mostly unknown sources working togetherwhereas singularly it refers to the collection andinterpretation of numerical data The branchlsquoStatisticsrsquo is broadly divided into two formsDescriptive and Inferential Statistics DescriptiveStatistics involves collection analysation andcharacterization of data It includes graphicalmethods and numeric measures InferentialStatistic involves estimation and conclusion ofdata that has been classified under descriptivestatistics

Codes canrsquot lie but comments can mightseems to be simple yet very meaningful

We all live in the digital era of hightechnologies smart devices and mobilesolutions Data is an essential aspect of anybusiness Itrsquos crucial to gather process andanalyse the data flow and to do that as quicklyand accurately as possible Nowadays the datavolume can be large which makes informationhandling time-consuming and expensive Dueto this precise reason the data science industryis growing at a rapid pace creating newpossibilities as well as opportunities and pythonis one of the solutions to understand andanalyse such big data sets It is a cross-functional language that has lots of advantagesto offer This object-oriented programminglanguage is commonly used to streamline largecomplex data sets Not only this it has a highreadability that helps data analysts to save timeby typing fewer lines of code for accomplishingthe tasks Therefore itrsquos not surprising at allthat it is claimed to be the preferredprogramming language for data science

Let me tell you why Python is a number oneoption for data analysis-

By Tanisha Gupta ( 3rd Year )

gtgt Easy to LearnBeing involved in development for web servicesmobile apps as well as coding Yes it is one ofthe most famous language characteristics Morethan that a low and thus fast learning curve isthe next pre-eminence of Python whencomparing it with older languages on offer

gtgt Well-SupportedHaving the experience of using some tools forfree you probably know that it is a challenge toget decent support but thatrsquos not the case withPython Despite the high simplicity there can besituations when you still need help with PythonBeing in widespread use like in industries oracademic areas Python has a broad array ofhelpful libraries with tons of helpful and supportmaterials The great benefit is that all thelibraries are available at no cost

gtgt ScalabilityThis Pythonrsquos feature is closely connected withthe previous option Comparing with otherlanguages like R Java python is much fasterand more scalable Therefore it is good invarious fields that can solve a wide range ofproblems Thatrsquos why many companies havemigrated to Python

(34)

gtgt Huge Libraries CollectionAs I have already mentioned Python is one ofthe most supported languages nowadays Ithas a long list of totally free libraries availablefor all the users Thatrsquos a key factor that givesa strong push for Python If yoursquore involved inthe field more likely you are acquainted withsuch names as Pandas SciPy Stats ModelsMatplotlib etc libraries that are intensivelyutilized in the data science community Hereyou can easily find a solution needed forhassle-free work without additional expenses

gtgt Graphics and Visualization ToolsItrsquos a well-known fact that visual information ismuch easier to understand operate andremember So here is some good news foryou There is a pack of diverse visualizationoptions available that makes python a must-have tool not only for data analysis but for alldata science You can make the data moreaccessible and easier to use by means ofcreating various charts and graphics as wellas interactive plots Always remember that thesuccess of your business directly depends onthe ability to extract knowledge and insightsfrom data to make effective strategicdecisions stay competitive and makeprogress and Python is the internationallyclaimed programming language to help us inhandling our data in a better manner for avariety of causes

ldquoCollege life is known as one of the most memorable years of astudentrsquos life exposing them to new experiences like meeting new

A registered clinical psychologist in Honk Kongnamed Zanonia Chiu said - ldquoGoing to school hadbeen a struggle for some children (withdepression) prior to the pandemic but at leastthey had school routines to stick with Now thatschools are closed some lock themselves upinside their rooms for weeks refusing to takeshowers eat or leave their beds For somechildren with depression there will beconsiderable difficulties adjusting back to normallife when college resumesrdquo and according to anonline survey conducted with the study periodfrom April 2020 to May 2020 - Total 531372 and 243 had symptoms of depressionanxiety and stress respectively with varyingseverities (N=727)The conclusion of the surveyindicated that COVID-19 is building psychologicaldistress among vulnerable college students asthey are forced to stay home along withworsening financial situations lifestyle changesfamily situations and time spent on variousactivities

lsquoOnline classrsquo is a term which most of us werenrsquotfamiliar with Before this pandemic we neverthought of getting education at home Covid hasaffected all of our lives In past pursuingeducation meant going to the schoolcollege Butnow the whole scenario has changed Childrenare studying and attending classes from homeJust like there are two sides of a coin onlineclasses also have some advantages anddisadvantages

Starting from the advantages it saves time forboth students and teachers as they donrsquot haveto travel All they have to do is to join throughtheir mobiles or laptops Secondly studentsdonrsquot have to necessarily buy books from theshops like they had to do in offline classesbecause they are given pdfs from which they canstudy Therefore it saves money Third it can beattended from anywhere in the world Unlike inthe offline classes where we had to gather at aparticular place Fourth computer basedpractical can be easily understood as studentscan share their screen with teachers Also it iseasy for teachers to explain a topic with the helpof pictures or animations which can be easilyfound on the internet

Last but not the least Parents can keep an eyeon their children whether they are studyingproperly or not

Apart from advantages it has somedisadvantages too First sitting beside thecomputer or mobile for hours affects the eyesightof both students and teachers Doctors arereporting many cases of eyestrain amongchildren since the online classes have startedSecondly students are becoming lazy as theydonrsquot have to go out of their home Like theproverb lsquoAll work and no play makes Jack a dullboyrsquo is really happening Third students canbunk in the online classes easily As they haveno fear of punishment they learned to disobeyand disrespect teachers Fourth students havebeen given lots of assignments as a result ofwhich most students are copying othersassignments and are not learning anything newFifth it is very difficult to communicate asteachers cannot give attention to each studentLastly it can be concluded that no matter howthe classes are being held a student must bededicated and sincere towards their studiesAfter all onersquos future depends on what they do intheir present

An actuary is a business executive professionally trained in the mathematical sciences Actuariesspecialize in the evaluation of financial riskmdashmost often in the context of life health and casualtyinsurance where they design analyse and refine varied programs to meet the insurance needs ofsociety A growing number of actuaries work in the areas of assetliability management and risk managementSome of these actuaries are employed by investment and consulting firms others are employed byinsurance companies

Actuaries have been called financial architects and social mathematicians because their combinedanalytical and business skills help solve a growing variety of financial and social problems Theactuarial profession is a demanding yet rewarding career choice

In a world bombarded with numerical information informed decisions rely on the ability to separatefact from fiction by applying valid statistical analyses and visualizations Statisticians can providecrucial guidance in determining what information is reliable and which predictions may be trustedThey often help search for clues to the solution of a scientific mystery and sometimes keepinvestigators from being misled by false impressions

Thousands of statisticians work in medicine law agriculture public policy marketing manufacturingengineering and other fields in the social and natural sciences The diversity of applications is anexciting aspect of the field and is one more reason why the demand for well-trained statisticianscontinues to be strong

Contributed by Dr Meenu Goel

The curtain lifts on Bryant Elementary Schools Spring Recorder Recital Ninety third-graders fumble with their instruments take a breath

and blow Their parents braced breathe too

as Hot Crossed Buns emerges a little scattershot -- the Normal Distribution brought to life

By Go Tell Aunt Rhodie the audience

is moved by their sheer pretty-goodness though one kid knocks her music to the floor

and another squeaks to demonstrate

the tail two standard deviations below the mean The curve implies

that somewhere on stage another kid

just played a note so sweet he might shatter Mrs Wedermeyers glasses And if

there are a mother and father who think

that child is theirs may they be forgiven even if the child shining in their eyes

is moving his fingers slightly out of rhythm

even if hes never led the bell curve in his life In consecutive measures of almost unison

its easy to believe these children are musicians

Their parents do so stirred by Ode to Joy they rise to their feet with the final phrase

clapping from the darkened auditorium

at once as one heroically like the parents theyve meant to be

EK NAYA SAFAR

Mubarak ho apko zindgi ka naya safar

Naya hai sheher nai hai dagar

Chut gaye kuch rishte purane

But donrsquot worry yaar mil jayenge naye diwane

Kuch tum jaise khuch tum se alag

So just smile and start a new life

Dosti yaari ko zara side mai rakh ke

Edhar gaur famiye janab

Course toh tumne acha chuna hai

Kuch socha hai ya ese hi liya hai

College mai admission jab hota hai

Toh andar khushi ke fuvare futne lagte hai

Lekin syllabus o dekh kar yeh bhi dagmagane lagte hai

Mana CP paas hai vahi maat ghumte rehna

Varna paper mai cafeacute ki menu sheet hi likhte rehna

Donrsquot take a chill pill coz yaha ki teachers hai thori strict

Just because they want you to be the best

Ab kya kare college ka har din mamuli nahi hota

Aur 9 se 4 sirf parai nahi hoti

Gumo firo esh karo but parna na bhulo

Mana es saal kuch zyada hi speed breakers hai

But the best part is hum sab bhi toh sath hai

PONDERINGAll of humanity is but a set of numbers You and I

are nothing more than a statisticJust think about any decision you had to take

recently No matter your choice you might findyourself ending up only as an infinitesimal

decimal in the final percentage of a statisticianrsquosdiscourse Let me give you an example pertinent

to the world we live in today Say yoursquore arepublican and have to decide whether to wear a

mask or not Naturally your political instinctmight warn you against it However you might

still be inclined to wear one because yoursquoregenuinely scared about what the ldquoliberalsrdquo have

to say about the SARS-COV-2 Now now letrsquos notgo off-topic here I know you might be wondering

what yoursquod do if you were in a Republicanrsquos shoesBut thatrsquos not the point

In the end it seldom matters whether you are arepublican or a liberal especially in situations

like these What matters in the end is if you didgo out without wearing that infuriating

smothering mask And if you contracted thewretched virus because of it If yes hard luck

Yoursquore nothing more than one of the 841 millionpeople who have it Thatrsquos all that people aroundthe world will see Not your gender not your ageand certainly not your political belief Of course

there will be studies about the correlation ofthese factors with the incidence rate of the

infections but thatrsquos another story altogether andnot one possibly as broad as the one we talk

aboutMoreover the correlation must not be

confused with causation Now perhaps thatrsquosa story for another day But think about it thisway whether you go to college or drop out of

high school whether you choose to live ordecide to die no matter the decision no

matter your inclination or choice whetheryou like it or not you will be nothing more

than a statisticIt might sound a bit gloomy to be honestWhen I first thought about it I felt almostinsignificant Like a tiny speck of dust in a

galaxy of stars Alas isnrsquot that all that we arethough

A pale blue dot in an ocean of stars Ourplanet one among millions or perhaps

billions of others All 78 billion of us fightingfor a place in the world knowing full well we

canrsquot all possibly have it It might makeanyone feel overwhelmed but therersquos

something about that that is so challenging itis almost inspiring We all know statistics andwe all know life But the true beauty of life lies

in the ability to defy statistics Only onequestion remains are you up for the

challenge

It wonrsquot be any exaggeration If itrsquos said that tools of statistician are used in almost all fields ofcalculation

Be it research finance sports marketing sales health care or population countingIt is a crucial process behind How we make discoveries in science

Making decisions or claiming predictions It plays a crucial play in all situationsStats is involved everywhere from collection to interpretation From explanation to

presentationStatistics helps avoiding a wide variety of analytical traps By making sure that study follow

apt methods in all aspectsChallenging your own assumptions Or drawing data-based conclusions

Statistics is always there Making things crisp and clear

Donrsquot buy that lottery ticket Donrsquot wish for a fallen wicket

Statistically speaking it may all be in vain If you didnrsquot make it the first time why try

again

And if you donrsquot buy wish try andpredict

Why also bother living the life you claim tohave lived

It always seems impossible until it is done

If it makes you happyit doesnt have to make sense to others

When you cant find the sunshinebe the sunshine

Either you run the day or let the day run you

When you focus on the goodthe good gets better

It takes the same energy to worry as it doesto be positive so use your energy to thinkpositive and positive things will happen

The one thing that doesnt abide by majority rule is a persons conscience

Make happiness a priority and be gentle with yourself in the process

College the best start to unfold lifes beauty

Goodbye to the mistakes weve made remember the laughs weve shared

Will never forget these years

If you dont believe in yourself thenno one is going to believe in you So

Believe in Yourself

Be who you are and say what you feelbecause those who mind donrsquot matter and

those who matter donrsquot mind

Success is liking yourself liking what you do and liking how you do it

Happiness is a by-product of an effort to make someone else happy

If you are not willing to risk the unusual you will have to settle for the ordinary

Always keep it clean simple and precise

Hustle until you no longer have to introduce yourself

Dream it Wish it Do it

There are no limits to what you can accomplish except the limits you place

on your own thinking

Sometimes the most beautiful things happen in the most unexpected waysI still canrsquot get over the fact that my 3 years-long and the beautiful journeycame to an end I never thought that I would make such beautiful bonds incollege be it with the teachers or my classmates Mata Sundri College will always have a special place in my heart and in mylife It is this place that made me realize my true potential I entered thecollege with almost no expectations But looking back at the time I nowfeel that those years were the most special and the most beautiful onesThe kind of love and support I received from all the teachers cannot bedescribed in words The personal connection which I still have with myteachers would be missing had I been in some other college I amextremely grateful to them It was because of them that I started loving mysubject Statistics All the hard work put in by my teachers and by myselfpaid off in the end Never did I imagine that I would become the Universitytopper I still feel that I am living in a dream

It is one of my greatest accomplishments Receiving the Medal from theHonrsquoble Education Minister Shri Ramesh Pokhriyal was a matter of pride Ifeel so happy seeing my parents and teachers being proud of me I surelyknow that whenever Irsquoll need some help in the future my teachers willalways be there to guide me The only regret is that we didnrsquot get a chance to greet the teachers and ourfellow classmates one last time due to the pandemic But keeping thataside I will always cherish my journey Thank you Mata Sundri College forthe amazing experience

What comes to your mind when you first hear theword Statisticsrsquo Graphs numbers or lines butwhat if I say that statistics comes with enumerablecareer opportunities The options are endless andthe jobs are just a little But what is the barrier thatholds us from thinking of Statistics as a separatesubject and just an extension of MathematicsMost of us still donrsquot know what statistics is allabout If we tell someone that we are a student ofStatistics they might just think itrsquos not a careeroption Even Google offers with a line explanationof Statistics ldquonumbers that have been collectedin order to provide information aboutsomethingrdquo Statistics is defined as theaggregate of facts affected to a market extent bymultiplicity of causes numerically expressed orestimated according to a reasonable standard ofaccuracy collected in a systematic manner forpredetermined purpose and placed in relation toeach other It is the art of learning from data It isconcerned with learning from data and theiranalysis As a plural it means numerical dataarising in any sphere of human experience thatis mostly unknown sources working togetherwhereas singularly it refers to the collection andinterpretation of numerical data The branchlsquoStatisticsrsquo is broadly divided into two formsDescriptive and Inferential Statistics DescriptiveStatistics involves collection analysation andcharacterization of data It includes graphicalmethods and numeric measures InferentialStatistic involves estimation and conclusion ofdata that has been classified under descriptivestatistics

Statistics is used in a variety of fields likecommerce trade economics chemistryastronomy industry etc Every field comes withone or the other usage of statistics Whether it bethe biggest of MNCrsquos or even a tea stall holdereveryone requires the usage of statistical tools todraw conclusion on what step they need to takenext The levels of profit or losses to obtainmaximum results from minimum resources allthis needs carefully collected data and thendrawing valid inference from it by using variousstatistical tools and techniques Even in day today life the change in prices of goodsvegetables and the trivial yet most importantdecision of whether to buy a new pair of shoes orclothes so that the house budget is not affectedcomes under Statistics The Government usesStatistics at a wide level whether it be forconducting a population census prediction ofoutcome of elections or drawing conclusions onwhether a new law should be passed or not Allthis requires Statistics It eliminates the chancesof uncertainty and predictions by laying the factsand figures required to reach to a correctdecision Even in the outbreak of this globalpandemic Statistics was extensively used be itto know numbers of cases rising daily number ofhospital facilities and medicine required therequirement of vaccines or the recovery ratesand so on The graphs drawn helped the generalpublic to easily understand the prevailingscenario and progress rate Thus Statistics is awide concept that is a helping hand in thisgrowing economy

Codes canrsquot lie but comments can mightseems to be simple yet very meaningful

We all live in the digital era of hightechnologies smart devices and mobilesolutions Data is an essential aspect of anybusiness Itrsquos crucial to gather process andanalyse the data flow and to do that as quicklyand accurately as possible Nowadays the datavolume can be large which makes informationhandling time-consuming and expensive Dueto this precise reason the data science industryis growing at a rapid pace creating newpossibilities as well as opportunities and pythonis one of the solutions to understand andanalyse such big data sets It is a cross-functional language that has lots of advantagesto offer This object-oriented programminglanguage is commonly used to streamline largecomplex data sets Not only this it has a highreadability that helps data analysts to save timeby typing fewer lines of code for accomplishingthe tasks Therefore itrsquos not surprising at allthat it is claimed to be the preferredprogramming language for data science

Let me tell you why Python is a number oneoption for data analysis-

By Tanisha Gupta ( 3rd Year )

gtgt Easy to LearnBeing involved in development for web servicesmobile apps as well as coding Yes it is one ofthe most famous language characteristics Morethan that a low and thus fast learning curve isthe next pre-eminence of Python whencomparing it with older languages on offer

gtgt Well-SupportedHaving the experience of using some tools forfree you probably know that it is a challenge toget decent support but thatrsquos not the case withPython Despite the high simplicity there can besituations when you still need help with PythonBeing in widespread use like in industries oracademic areas Python has a broad array ofhelpful libraries with tons of helpful and supportmaterials The great benefit is that all thelibraries are available at no cost

gtgt ScalabilityThis Pythonrsquos feature is closely connected withthe previous option Comparing with otherlanguages like R Java python is much fasterand more scalable Therefore it is good invarious fields that can solve a wide range ofproblems Thatrsquos why many companies havemigrated to Python

(34)

gtgt Huge Libraries CollectionAs I have already mentioned Python is one ofthe most supported languages nowadays Ithas a long list of totally free libraries availablefor all the users Thatrsquos a key factor that givesa strong push for Python If yoursquore involved inthe field more likely you are acquainted withsuch names as Pandas SciPy Stats ModelsMatplotlib etc libraries that are intensivelyutilized in the data science community Hereyou can easily find a solution needed forhassle-free work without additional expenses

gtgt Graphics and Visualization ToolsItrsquos a well-known fact that visual information ismuch easier to understand operate andremember So here is some good news foryou There is a pack of diverse visualizationoptions available that makes python a must-have tool not only for data analysis but for alldata science You can make the data moreaccessible and easier to use by means ofcreating various charts and graphics as wellas interactive plots Always remember that thesuccess of your business directly depends onthe ability to extract knowledge and insightsfrom data to make effective strategicdecisions stay competitive and makeprogress and Python is the internationallyclaimed programming language to help us inhandling our data in a better manner for avariety of causes

Sounds so interesting and happening right Itis true indeed but along with stressful timeaside Along with the perks of enjoyingfreedom more than ever there comesacademic pressure tasks of separation fromfamilies career building futureresponsibilities etc Boarding on with thecollege life is a stressful time for manystudents thereby affecting their mental healthMental health problems are very commonamong college students and have been anincreasing concern However the COVID-19pandemic situation has brought this vulnerablepopulation into renewed focus Following thepandemic schools colleges offices andalmost every place that involved humaninteraction was shut It is important to note thatcollegeschool or even a normal routine areimportant coping mechanisms for youngpeople with mental health issues and wheneverything is shut down they lose an anchor inlife and their symptoms could relapse

Mental health among students is a big concernhowever ldquoUNTREATEDrdquo mental illnesses are amuch bigger and exponentially growingconcern Reaching out is an important step formental health issues to be addressed andtreated but reach out to who This is the pointwhere our institution should take over Collegesplay a big role in this stage Colleges doaddress this issue through means of orientationsessions and workshops but there is still a needto address mental health more directly Themethods to address mental health issuesshould be accessible feasible and affordablefor the students For example at NorthwesternUniversity student feedback led orientationenabled organizers to shift their focus fromexpert speakers to student testimonials Meansto address the issue vary from traditionalpresentations and panel discussions to roleplays small group discussions etc Herestudents learn how to recognize mental illnesssymptoms where to find resources andsupport and how to talk to friends who mightbe struggling

lsquoOnline classrsquo is a term which most of us werenrsquotfamiliar with Before this pandemic we neverthought of getting education at home Covid hasaffected all of our lives In past pursuingeducation meant going to the schoolcollege Butnow the whole scenario has changed Childrenare studying and attending classes from homeJust like there are two sides of a coin onlineclasses also have some advantages anddisadvantages

Starting from the advantages it saves time forboth students and teachers as they donrsquot haveto travel All they have to do is to join throughtheir mobiles or laptops Secondly studentsdonrsquot have to necessarily buy books from theshops like they had to do in offline classesbecause they are given pdfs from which they canstudy Therefore it saves money Third it can beattended from anywhere in the world Unlike inthe offline classes where we had to gather at aparticular place Fourth computer basedpractical can be easily understood as studentscan share their screen with teachers Also it iseasy for teachers to explain a topic with the helpof pictures or animations which can be easilyfound on the internet

Last but not the least Parents can keep an eyeon their children whether they are studyingproperly or not

Apart from advantages it has somedisadvantages too First sitting beside thecomputer or mobile for hours affects the eyesightof both students and teachers Doctors arereporting many cases of eyestrain amongchildren since the online classes have startedSecondly students are becoming lazy as theydonrsquot have to go out of their home Like theproverb lsquoAll work and no play makes Jack a dullboyrsquo is really happening Third students canbunk in the online classes easily As they haveno fear of punishment they learned to disobeyand disrespect teachers Fourth students havebeen given lots of assignments as a result ofwhich most students are copying othersassignments and are not learning anything newFifth it is very difficult to communicate asteachers cannot give attention to each studentLastly it can be concluded that no matter howthe classes are being held a student must bededicated and sincere towards their studiesAfter all onersquos future depends on what they do intheir present

An actuary is a business executive professionally trained in the mathematical sciences Actuariesspecialize in the evaluation of financial riskmdashmost often in the context of life health and casualtyinsurance where they design analyse and refine varied programs to meet the insurance needs ofsociety A growing number of actuaries work in the areas of assetliability management and risk managementSome of these actuaries are employed by investment and consulting firms others are employed byinsurance companies

Actuaries have been called financial architects and social mathematicians because their combinedanalytical and business skills help solve a growing variety of financial and social problems Theactuarial profession is a demanding yet rewarding career choice

In a world bombarded with numerical information informed decisions rely on the ability to separatefact from fiction by applying valid statistical analyses and visualizations Statisticians can providecrucial guidance in determining what information is reliable and which predictions may be trustedThey often help search for clues to the solution of a scientific mystery and sometimes keepinvestigators from being misled by false impressions

Thousands of statisticians work in medicine law agriculture public policy marketing manufacturingengineering and other fields in the social and natural sciences The diversity of applications is anexciting aspect of the field and is one more reason why the demand for well-trained statisticianscontinues to be strong

Poetry

Contributed by Dr Komal Goel

(41)

Contributed by Dr Meenu Goel

The curtain lifts on Bryant Elementary Schools Spring Recorder Recital Ninety third-graders fumble with their instruments take a breath

and blow Their parents braced breathe too

as Hot Crossed Buns emerges a little scattershot -- the Normal Distribution brought to life

By Go Tell Aunt Rhodie the audience

is moved by their sheer pretty-goodness though one kid knocks her music to the floor

and another squeaks to demonstrate

the tail two standard deviations below the mean The curve implies

that somewhere on stage another kid

just played a note so sweet he might shatter Mrs Wedermeyers glasses And if

there are a mother and father who think

that child is theirs may they be forgiven even if the child shining in their eyes

is moving his fingers slightly out of rhythm

even if hes never led the bell curve in his life In consecutive measures of almost unison

its easy to believe these children are musicians

Their parents do so stirred by Ode to Joy they rise to their feet with the final phrase

clapping from the darkened auditorium

at once as one heroically like the parents theyve meant to be

EK NAYA SAFAR

Mubarak ho apko zindgi ka naya safar

Naya hai sheher nai hai dagar

Chut gaye kuch rishte purane

But donrsquot worry yaar mil jayenge naye diwane

Kuch tum jaise khuch tum se alag

So just smile and start a new life

Dosti yaari ko zara side mai rakh ke

Edhar gaur famiye janab

Course toh tumne acha chuna hai

Kuch socha hai ya ese hi liya hai

College mai admission jab hota hai

Toh andar khushi ke fuvare futne lagte hai

Lekin syllabus o dekh kar yeh bhi dagmagane lagte hai

Mana CP paas hai vahi maat ghumte rehna

Varna paper mai cafeacute ki menu sheet hi likhte rehna

Donrsquot take a chill pill coz yaha ki teachers hai thori strict

Just because they want you to be the best

Ab kya kare college ka har din mamuli nahi hota

Aur 9 se 4 sirf parai nahi hoti

Gumo firo esh karo but parna na bhulo

Mana es saal kuch zyada hi speed breakers hai

But the best part is hum sab bhi toh sath hai

PONDERINGAll of humanity is but a set of numbers You and I

are nothing more than a statisticJust think about any decision you had to take

recently No matter your choice you might findyourself ending up only as an infinitesimal

decimal in the final percentage of a statisticianrsquosdiscourse Let me give you an example pertinent

to the world we live in today Say yoursquore arepublican and have to decide whether to wear a

mask or not Naturally your political instinctmight warn you against it However you might

still be inclined to wear one because yoursquoregenuinely scared about what the ldquoliberalsrdquo have

to say about the SARS-COV-2 Now now letrsquos notgo off-topic here I know you might be wondering

what yoursquod do if you were in a Republicanrsquos shoesBut thatrsquos not the point

In the end it seldom matters whether you are arepublican or a liberal especially in situations

like these What matters in the end is if you didgo out without wearing that infuriating

smothering mask And if you contracted thewretched virus because of it If yes hard luck

Yoursquore nothing more than one of the 841 millionpeople who have it Thatrsquos all that people aroundthe world will see Not your gender not your ageand certainly not your political belief Of course

there will be studies about the correlation ofthese factors with the incidence rate of the

infections but thatrsquos another story altogether andnot one possibly as broad as the one we talk

aboutMoreover the correlation must not be

confused with causation Now perhaps thatrsquosa story for another day But think about it thisway whether you go to college or drop out of

high school whether you choose to live ordecide to die no matter the decision no

matter your inclination or choice whetheryou like it or not you will be nothing more

than a statisticIt might sound a bit gloomy to be honestWhen I first thought about it I felt almostinsignificant Like a tiny speck of dust in a

galaxy of stars Alas isnrsquot that all that we arethough

A pale blue dot in an ocean of stars Ourplanet one among millions or perhaps

billions of others All 78 billion of us fightingfor a place in the world knowing full well we

canrsquot all possibly have it It might makeanyone feel overwhelmed but therersquos

something about that that is so challenging itis almost inspiring We all know statistics andwe all know life But the true beauty of life lies

in the ability to defy statistics Only onequestion remains are you up for the

challenge

It wonrsquot be any exaggeration If itrsquos said that tools of statistician are used in almost all fields ofcalculation

Be it research finance sports marketing sales health care or population countingIt is a crucial process behind How we make discoveries in science

Making decisions or claiming predictions It plays a crucial play in all situationsStats is involved everywhere from collection to interpretation From explanation to

presentationStatistics helps avoiding a wide variety of analytical traps By making sure that study follow

apt methods in all aspectsChallenging your own assumptions Or drawing data-based conclusions

Statistics is always there Making things crisp and clear

It always seems impossible until it is done

If it makes you happyit doesnt have to make sense to others

When you cant find the sunshinebe the sunshine

Either you run the day or let the day run you

When you focus on the goodthe good gets better

It takes the same energy to worry as it doesto be positive so use your energy to thinkpositive and positive things will happen

The one thing that doesnt abide by majority rule is a persons conscience

Make happiness a priority and be gentle with yourself in the process

College the best start to unfold lifes beauty

Goodbye to the mistakes weve made remember the laughs weve shared

Will never forget these years

People are capable at anytime in their lives of doing what they dream of

Believe in Yourself

Be who you are and say what you feelbecause those who mind donrsquot matter and

those who matter donrsquot mind

Success is liking yourself liking what you do and liking how you do it

Happiness is a by-product of an effort to make someone else happy

If you are not willing to risk the unusual you will have to settle for the ordinary

Always keep it clean simple and precise

Hustle until you no longer have to introduce yourself

Dream it Wish it Do it

ALUMINI SPEAKSIts been a privilege to be the leading batch of the Department of StatisticsMata Sundri College None less than a roller coaster with every newchallenge we have rocked it on together With the amazing faculty it neverfelt like we needed the Seniors We have created our paths and wont letour juniors struggle for it always there to their rescue I have been a part of the statistics society for all the years and haveexperienced the best of it I see the society and the department growingwhich surely adds a feather to my capWishing for the best of it with all my heartI wish I could relive those best three years spent at the department witheveryone in my batch and the teachersGood luck

Sometimes the most beautiful things happen in the most unexpected waysI still canrsquot get over the fact that my 3 years-long and the beautiful journeycame to an end I never thought that I would make such beautiful bonds incollege be it with the teachers or my classmates Mata Sundri College will always have a special place in my heart and in mylife It is this place that made me realize my true potential I entered thecollege with almost no expectations But looking back at the time I nowfeel that those years were the most special and the most beautiful onesThe kind of love and support I received from all the teachers cannot bedescribed in words The personal connection which I still have with myteachers would be missing had I been in some other college I amextremely grateful to them It was because of them that I started loving mysubject Statistics All the hard work put in by my teachers and by myselfpaid off in the end Never did I imagine that I would become the Universitytopper I still feel that I am living in a dream

It is one of my greatest accomplishments Receiving the Medal from theHonrsquoble Education Minister Shri Ramesh Pokhriyal was a matter of pride Ifeel so happy seeing my parents and teachers being proud of me I surelyknow that whenever Irsquoll need some help in the future my teachers willalways be there to guide me The only regret is that we didnrsquot get a chance to greet the teachers and ourfellow classmates one last time due to the pandemic But keeping thataside I will always cherish my journey Thank you Mata Sundri College forthe amazing experience

Codes canrsquot lie but comments can mightseems to be simple yet very meaningful

We all live in the digital era of hightechnologies smart devices and mobilesolutions Data is an essential aspect of anybusiness Itrsquos crucial to gather process andanalyse the data flow and to do that as quicklyand accurately as possible Nowadays the datavolume can be large which makes informationhandling time-consuming and expensive Dueto this precise reason the data science industryis growing at a rapid pace creating newpossibilities as well as opportunities and pythonis one of the solutions to understand andanalyse such big data sets It is a cross-functional language that has lots of advantagesto offer This object-oriented programminglanguage is commonly used to streamline largecomplex data sets Not only this it has a highreadability that helps data analysts to save timeby typing fewer lines of code for accomplishingthe tasks Therefore itrsquos not surprising at allthat it is claimed to be the preferredprogramming language for data science

Let me tell you why Python is a number oneoption for data analysis-

By Tanisha Gupta ( 3rd Year )

gtgt Easy to LearnBeing involved in development for web servicesmobile apps as well as coding Yes it is one ofthe most famous language characteristics Morethan that a low and thus fast learning curve isthe next pre-eminence of Python whencomparing it with older languages on offer

gtgt Well-SupportedHaving the experience of using some tools forfree you probably know that it is a challenge toget decent support but thatrsquos not the case withPython Despite the high simplicity there can besituations when you still need help with PythonBeing in widespread use like in industries oracademic areas Python has a broad array ofhelpful libraries with tons of helpful and supportmaterials The great benefit is that all thelibraries are available at no cost

gtgt ScalabilityThis Pythonrsquos feature is closely connected withthe previous option Comparing with otherlanguages like R Java python is much fasterand more scalable Therefore it is good invarious fields that can solve a wide range ofproblems Thatrsquos why many companies havemigrated to Python

(34)

gtgt Huge Libraries CollectionAs I have already mentioned Python is one ofthe most supported languages nowadays Ithas a long list of totally free libraries availablefor all the users Thatrsquos a key factor that givesa strong push for Python If yoursquore involved inthe field more likely you are acquainted withsuch names as Pandas SciPy Stats ModelsMatplotlib etc libraries that are intensivelyutilized in the data science community Hereyou can easily find a solution needed forhassle-free work without additional expenses

gtgt Graphics and Visualization ToolsItrsquos a well-known fact that visual information ismuch easier to understand operate andremember So here is some good news foryou There is a pack of diverse visualizationoptions available that makes python a must-have tool not only for data analysis but for alldata science You can make the data moreaccessible and easier to use by means ofcreating various charts and graphics as wellas interactive plots Always remember that thesuccess of your business directly depends onthe ability to extract knowledge and insightsfrom data to make effective strategicdecisions stay competitive and makeprogress and Python is the internationallyclaimed programming language to help us inhandling our data in a better manner for avariety of causes

ldquoCollege life is known as one of the most memorable years of astudentrsquos life exposing them to new experiences like meeting new

people learning new things exploring places etcrdquo

A registered clinical psychologist in Honk Kongnamed Zanonia Chiu said - ldquoGoing to school hadbeen a struggle for some children (withdepression) prior to the pandemic but at leastthey had school routines to stick with Now thatschools are closed some lock themselves upinside their rooms for weeks refusing to takeshowers eat or leave their beds For somechildren with depression there will beconsiderable difficulties adjusting back to normallife when college resumesrdquo and according to anonline survey conducted with the study periodfrom April 2020 to May 2020 - Total 531372 and 243 had symptoms of depressionanxiety and stress respectively with varyingseverities (N=727)The conclusion of the surveyindicated that COVID-19 is building psychologicaldistress among vulnerable college students asthey are forced to stay home along withworsening financial situations lifestyle changesfamily situations and time spent on variousactivities

Sounds so interesting and happening right Itis true indeed but along with stressful timeaside Along with the perks of enjoyingfreedom more than ever there comesacademic pressure tasks of separation fromfamilies career building futureresponsibilities etc Boarding on with thecollege life is a stressful time for manystudents thereby affecting their mental healthMental health problems are very commonamong college students and have been anincreasing concern However the COVID-19pandemic situation has brought this vulnerablepopulation into renewed focus Following thepandemic schools colleges offices andalmost every place that involved humaninteraction was shut It is important to note thatcollegeschool or even a normal routine areimportant coping mechanisms for youngpeople with mental health issues and wheneverything is shut down they lose an anchor inlife and their symptoms could relapse

(36)

Mental health among students is a big concernhowever ldquoUNTREATEDrdquo mental illnesses are amuch bigger and exponentially growingconcern Reaching out is an important step formental health issues to be addressed andtreated but reach out to who This is the pointwhere our institution should take over Collegesplay a big role in this stage Colleges doaddress this issue through means of orientationsessions and workshops but there is still a needto address mental health more directly Themethods to address mental health issuesshould be accessible feasible and affordablefor the students For example at NorthwesternUniversity student feedback led orientationenabled organizers to shift their focus fromexpert speakers to student testimonials Meansto address the issue vary from traditionalpresentations and panel discussions to roleplays small group discussions etc Herestudents learn how to recognize mental illnesssymptoms where to find resources andsupport and how to talk to friends who mightbe struggling

The findings of this study highlighted theurgent need to develop interventions andpreventive strategies to address the mentalhealth of college students Another InterviewSurvey study conducted by the Journal ofMedical Internet Research highlighted that of195 students 138 (71) indicated increasedstress and anxiety due to the COVID-19outbreak Multiple stressors were identified thatcontributed to the increased levels of stressanxiety and depressive thoughts amongstudents These included fear and worry abouttheir own health and of their loved ones(177195 91 reported negative impacts ofthe pandemic) difficulty in concentrating(173195 89) disruptions to sleepingpatterns (168195 86) decreased socialinteractions due to physical distancing(167195 86) and increased concerns onacademic performance (159195 82) Tocope with stress and anxiety participants havesought support from others and helpedthemselves by adopting either negative orpositive coping mechanisms It is important toknow that creating awareness about any issueis never enough action is what is neededTaking leave from workschool because of a fluor a fracture is acceptable and might even helpin the process of cure and healing howevertaking time off because of stress from a mentalillness such as anxiety or depressionunfortunately is not

lsquoOnline classrsquo is a term which most of us werenrsquotfamiliar with Before this pandemic we neverthought of getting education at home Covid hasaffected all of our lives In past pursuingeducation meant going to the schoolcollege Butnow the whole scenario has changed Childrenare studying and attending classes from homeJust like there are two sides of a coin onlineclasses also have some advantages anddisadvantages

Starting from the advantages it saves time forboth students and teachers as they donrsquot haveto travel All they have to do is to join throughtheir mobiles or laptops Secondly studentsdonrsquot have to necessarily buy books from theshops like they had to do in offline classesbecause they are given pdfs from which they canstudy Therefore it saves money Third it can beattended from anywhere in the world Unlike inthe offline classes where we had to gather at aparticular place Fourth computer basedpractical can be easily understood as studentscan share their screen with teachers Also it iseasy for teachers to explain a topic with the helpof pictures or animations which can be easilyfound on the internet

Last but not the least Parents can keep an eyeon their children whether they are studyingproperly or not

Apart from advantages it has somedisadvantages too First sitting beside thecomputer or mobile for hours affects the eyesightof both students and teachers Doctors arereporting many cases of eyestrain amongchildren since the online classes have startedSecondly students are becoming lazy as theydonrsquot have to go out of their home Like theproverb lsquoAll work and no play makes Jack a dullboyrsquo is really happening Third students canbunk in the online classes easily As they haveno fear of punishment they learned to disobeyand disrespect teachers Fourth students havebeen given lots of assignments as a result ofwhich most students are copying othersassignments and are not learning anything newFifth it is very difficult to communicate asteachers cannot give attention to each studentLastly it can be concluded that no matter howthe classes are being held a student must bededicated and sincere towards their studiesAfter all onersquos future depends on what they do intheir present

An actuary is a business executive professionally trained in the mathematical sciences Actuariesspecialize in the evaluation of financial riskmdashmost often in the context of life health and casualtyinsurance where they design analyse and refine varied programs to meet the insurance needs ofsociety A growing number of actuaries work in the areas of assetliability management and risk managementSome of these actuaries are employed by investment and consulting firms others are employed byinsurance companies

Actuaries have been called financial architects and social mathematicians because their combinedanalytical and business skills help solve a growing variety of financial and social problems Theactuarial profession is a demanding yet rewarding career choice

In a world bombarded with numerical information informed decisions rely on the ability to separatefact from fiction by applying valid statistical analyses and visualizations Statisticians can providecrucial guidance in determining what information is reliable and which predictions may be trustedThey often help search for clues to the solution of a scientific mystery and sometimes keepinvestigators from being misled by false impressions

Thousands of statisticians work in medicine law agriculture public policy marketing manufacturingengineering and other fields in the social and natural sciences The diversity of applications is anexciting aspect of the field and is one more reason why the demand for well-trained statisticianscontinues to be strong

Poetry

Contributed by Dr Komal Goel

(41)

Contributed by Dr Meenu Goel

The curtain lifts on Bryant Elementary Schools Spring Recorder Recital Ninety third-graders fumble with their instruments take a breath

and blow Their parents braced breathe too

as Hot Crossed Buns emerges a little scattershot -- the Normal Distribution brought to life

By Go Tell Aunt Rhodie the audience

is moved by their sheer pretty-goodness though one kid knocks her music to the floor

and another squeaks to demonstrate

the tail two standard deviations below the mean The curve implies

that somewhere on stage another kid

just played a note so sweet he might shatter Mrs Wedermeyers glasses And if

there are a mother and father who think

that child is theirs may they be forgiven even if the child shining in their eyes

is moving his fingers slightly out of rhythm

even if hes never led the bell curve in his life In consecutive measures of almost unison

its easy to believe these children are musicians

Their parents do so stirred by Ode to Joy they rise to their feet with the final phrase

clapping from the darkened auditorium

at once as one heroically like the parents theyve meant to be

EK NAYA SAFAR

Mubarak ho apko zindgi ka naya safar

Naya hai sheher nai hai dagar

Chut gaye kuch rishte purane

But donrsquot worry yaar mil jayenge naye diwane

Kuch tum jaise khuch tum se alag

So just smile and start a new life

Dosti yaari ko zara side mai rakh ke

Edhar gaur famiye janab

Course toh tumne acha chuna hai

Kuch socha hai ya ese hi liya hai

College mai admission jab hota hai

Toh andar khushi ke fuvare futne lagte hai

Lekin syllabus o dekh kar yeh bhi dagmagane lagte hai

Mana CP paas hai vahi maat ghumte rehna

Varna paper mai cafeacute ki menu sheet hi likhte rehna

Donrsquot take a chill pill coz yaha ki teachers hai thori strict

Just because they want you to be the best

Ab kya kare college ka har din mamuli nahi hota

Aur 9 se 4 sirf parai nahi hoti

Gumo firo esh karo but parna na bhulo

Mana es saal kuch zyada hi speed breakers hai

But the best part is hum sab bhi toh sath hai

PONDERINGAll of humanity is but a set of numbers You and I

are nothing more than a statisticJust think about any decision you had to take

recently No matter your choice you might findyourself ending up only as an infinitesimal

decimal in the final percentage of a statisticianrsquosdiscourse Let me give you an example pertinent

to the world we live in today Say yoursquore arepublican and have to decide whether to wear a

mask or not Naturally your political instinctmight warn you against it However you might

still be inclined to wear one because yoursquoregenuinely scared about what the ldquoliberalsrdquo have

to say about the SARS-COV-2 Now now letrsquos notgo off-topic here I know you might be wondering

what yoursquod do if you were in a Republicanrsquos shoesBut thatrsquos not the point

In the end it seldom matters whether you are arepublican or a liberal especially in situations

like these What matters in the end is if you didgo out without wearing that infuriating

smothering mask And if you contracted thewretched virus because of it If yes hard luck

Yoursquore nothing more than one of the 841 millionpeople who have it Thatrsquos all that people aroundthe world will see Not your gender not your ageand certainly not your political belief Of course

there will be studies about the correlation ofthese factors with the incidence rate of the

infections but thatrsquos another story altogether andnot one possibly as broad as the one we talk

aboutMoreover the correlation must not be

confused with causation Now perhaps thatrsquosa story for another day But think about it thisway whether you go to college or drop out of

high school whether you choose to live ordecide to die no matter the decision no

matter your inclination or choice whetheryou like it or not you will be nothing more

than a statisticIt might sound a bit gloomy to be honestWhen I first thought about it I felt almostinsignificant Like a tiny speck of dust in a

galaxy of stars Alas isnrsquot that all that we arethough

A pale blue dot in an ocean of stars Ourplanet one among millions or perhaps

billions of others All 78 billion of us fightingfor a place in the world knowing full well we

canrsquot all possibly have it It might makeanyone feel overwhelmed but therersquos

something about that that is so challenging itis almost inspiring We all know statistics andwe all know life But the true beauty of life lies

in the ability to defy statistics Only onequestion remains are you up for the

challenge

It wonrsquot be any exaggeration If itrsquos said that tools of statistician are used in almost all fields ofcalculation

Be it research finance sports marketing sales health care or population countingIt is a crucial process behind How we make discoveries in science

Making decisions or claiming predictions It plays a crucial play in all situationsStats is involved everywhere from collection to interpretation From explanation to

presentationStatistics helps avoiding a wide variety of analytical traps By making sure that study follow

apt methods in all aspectsChallenging your own assumptions Or drawing data-based conclusions

Statistics is always there Making things crisp and clear

Donrsquot buy that lottery ticket Donrsquot wish for a fallen wicket

Statistically speaking it may all be in vain If you didnrsquot make it the first time why try

again

And if you donrsquot buy wish try andpredict

Why also bother living the life you claim tohave lived

It always seems impossible until it is done

If it makes you happyit doesnt have to make sense to others

When you cant find the sunshinebe the sunshine

Either you run the day or let the day run you

When you focus on the goodthe good gets better

It takes the same energy to worry as it doesto be positive so use your energy to thinkpositive and positive things will happen

The one thing that doesnt abide by majority rule is a persons conscience

Make happiness a priority and be gentle with yourself in the process

College the best start to unfold lifes beauty

Goodbye to the mistakes weve made remember the laughs weve shared

Will never forget these years

People are capable at anytime in their lives of doing what they dream of

productivity and replace it by degree ofpresence

Test Statistics Given the observations for threeyears and some crazy friends the p value of Hobeing true is found to be greater than alpha

For all alpha level of laughters and fun we failto reject null hypothesis

May every sunrise bring you hopeMay every sunset bring you peace

If you dont believe in yourself thenno one is going to believe in you So

Believe in Yourself

Be who you are and say what you feelbecause those who mind donrsquot matter and

those who matter donrsquot mind

Success is liking yourself liking what you do and liking how you do it

Happiness is a by-product of an effort to make someone else happy

If you are not willing to risk the unusual you will have to settle for the ordinary

Always keep it clean simple and precise

Hustle until you no longer have to introduce yourself

Dream it Wish it Do it

There are no limits to what you can accomplish except the limits you place

on your own thinking

The greatness of humanity is not in being human but in being humane

You will be exactly as happy as you decide

One thing to learn from the sun is thatwhenever a cloud tries to hinder itslight it finds its own path to shine

Excellence is not achieved - it is aspired to and trekked towards The tougher the trek

the better the views

I think the day we figure out everythingabout our lives is the day we die

Finding your magic can be scary but owning it will be EUPHORIA

An approximate answer to the right problem is worth a good deal more than

an exact answer to an approximate problem

The aim is to live happily heal throughevery situation and learn everything new

Set your heart free and let yourspirit fly break the barriers and you

shall soar high

You can regret a lot of things butcan never regret being kind

You are the artist of your lifedo not give the paintbrush to

someone else

You gotta find the good in them becausetheyll always find the good in you

Every revolution was first athought in one mans mind

There are no limits to what you canaccomplish except the limits you place

on your own thinking

Be someone no one can think youcould ever be

Always remember you are biggerthan your problems

Be patient with yourself Nothingin nature blooms all year

Keep calm and be crazy Laugh love and liveit up because this is the oldest youve been

and the youngest youll ever be again

Life love and happiness I wanna experience it all

Not how long but how well youlived is the main thing

Either write something worth readingor do something worth writing

Believe you can and you arehalfway there

You start seeing the magic and beautyin others when itrsquos really in yourself

Im not great at advice can I interestyou with a sarcastic comment

Hope is the only bee that can makehoney without flowers

Priorities change and so do we Your limitation-its only yourimagination

Tanvi AnandBeing strong when everything going wrongBelieving that happiness relates to prettiness

Believing that tomorrow is another day Ibelieve in miracles

ldquoCollege life is known as one of the most memorable years of astudentrsquos life exposing them to new experiences like meeting new

people learning new things exploring places etcrdquo

A registered clinical psychologist in Honk Kongnamed Zanonia Chiu said - ldquoGoing to school hadbeen a struggle for some children (withdepression) prior to the pandemic but at leastthey had school routines to stick with Now thatschools are closed some lock themselves upinside their rooms for weeks refusing to takeshowers eat or leave their beds For somechildren with depression there will beconsiderable difficulties adjusting back to normallife when college resumesrdquo and according to anonline survey conducted with the study periodfrom April 2020 to May 2020 - Total 531372 and 243 had symptoms of depressionanxiety and stress respectively with varyingseverities (N=727)The conclusion of the surveyindicated that COVID-19 is building psychologicaldistress among vulnerable college students asthey are forced to stay home along withworsening financial situations lifestyle changesfamily situations and time spent on variousactivities

Sounds so interesting and happening right Itis true indeed but along with stressful timeaside Along with the perks of enjoyingfreedom more than ever there comesacademic pressure tasks of separation fromfamilies career building futureresponsibilities etc Boarding on with thecollege life is a stressful time for manystudents thereby affecting their mental healthMental health problems are very commonamong college students and have been anincreasing concern However the COVID-19pandemic situation has brought this vulnerablepopulation into renewed focus Following thepandemic schools colleges offices andalmost every place that involved humaninteraction was shut It is important to note thatcollegeschool or even a normal routine areimportant coping mechanisms for youngpeople with mental health issues and wheneverything is shut down they lose an anchor inlife and their symptoms could relapse

Mental health among students is a big concernhowever ldquoUNTREATEDrdquo mental illnesses are amuch bigger and exponentially growingconcern Reaching out is an important step formental health issues to be addressed andtreated but reach out to who This is the pointwhere our institution should take over Collegesplay a big role in this stage Colleges doaddress this issue through means of orientationsessions and workshops but there is still a needto address mental health more directly Themethods to address mental health issuesshould be accessible feasible and affordablefor the students For example at NorthwesternUniversity student feedback led orientationenabled organizers to shift their focus fromexpert speakers to student testimonials Meansto address the issue vary from traditionalpresentations and panel discussions to roleplays small group discussions etc Herestudents learn how to recognize mental illnesssymptoms where to find resources andsupport and how to talk to friends who mightbe struggling

The findings of this study highlighted theurgent need to develop interventions andpreventive strategies to address the mentalhealth of college students Another InterviewSurvey study conducted by the Journal ofMedical Internet Research highlighted that of195 students 138 (71) indicated increasedstress and anxiety due to the COVID-19outbreak Multiple stressors were identified thatcontributed to the increased levels of stressanxiety and depressive thoughts amongstudents These included fear and worry abouttheir own health and of their loved ones(177195 91 reported negative impacts ofthe pandemic) difficulty in concentrating(173195 89) disruptions to sleepingpatterns (168195 86) decreased socialinteractions due to physical distancing(167195 86) and increased concerns onacademic performance (159195 82) Tocope with stress and anxiety participants havesought support from others and helpedthemselves by adopting either negative orpositive coping mechanisms It is important toknow that creating awareness about any issueis never enough action is what is neededTaking leave from workschool because of a fluor a fracture is acceptable and might even helpin the process of cure and healing howevertaking time off because of stress from a mentalillness such as anxiety or depressionunfortunately is not

lsquoOnline classrsquo is a term which most of us werenrsquotfamiliar with Before this pandemic we neverthought of getting education at home Covid hasaffected all of our lives In past pursuingeducation meant going to the schoolcollege Butnow the whole scenario has changed Childrenare studying and attending classes from homeJust like there are two sides of a coin onlineclasses also have some advantages anddisadvantages

Starting from the advantages it saves time forboth students and teachers as they donrsquot haveto travel All they have to do is to join throughtheir mobiles or laptops Secondly studentsdonrsquot have to necessarily buy books from theshops like they had to do in offline classesbecause they are given pdfs from which they canstudy Therefore it saves money Third it can beattended from anywhere in the world Unlike inthe offline classes where we had to gather at aparticular place Fourth computer basedpractical can be easily understood as studentscan share their screen with teachers Also it iseasy for teachers to explain a topic with the helpof pictures or animations which can be easilyfound on the internet

Last but not the least Parents can keep an eyeon their children whether they are studyingproperly or not

Apart from advantages it has somedisadvantages too First sitting beside thecomputer or mobile for hours affects the eyesightof both students and teachers Doctors arereporting many cases of eyestrain amongchildren since the online classes have startedSecondly students are becoming lazy as theydonrsquot have to go out of their home Like theproverb lsquoAll work and no play makes Jack a dullboyrsquo is really happening Third students canbunk in the online classes easily As they haveno fear of punishment they learned to disobeyand disrespect teachers Fourth students havebeen given lots of assignments as a result ofwhich most students are copying othersassignments and are not learning anything newFifth it is very difficult to communicate asteachers cannot give attention to each studentLastly it can be concluded that no matter howthe classes are being held a student must bededicated and sincere towards their studiesAfter all onersquos future depends on what they do intheir present

An actuary is a business executive professionally trained in the mathematical sciences Actuariesspecialize in the evaluation of financial riskmdashmost often in the context of life health and casualtyinsurance where they design analyse and refine varied programs to meet the insurance needs ofsociety A growing number of actuaries work in the areas of assetliability management and risk managementSome of these actuaries are employed by investment and consulting firms others are employed byinsurance companies

Actuaries have been called financial architects and social mathematicians because their combinedanalytical and business skills help solve a growing variety of financial and social problems Theactuarial profession is a demanding yet rewarding career choice

In a world bombarded with numerical information informed decisions rely on the ability to separatefact from fiction by applying valid statistical analyses and visualizations Statisticians can providecrucial guidance in determining what information is reliable and which predictions may be trustedThey often help search for clues to the solution of a scientific mystery and sometimes keepinvestigators from being misled by false impressions

Thousands of statisticians work in medicine law agriculture public policy marketing manufacturingengineering and other fields in the social and natural sciences The diversity of applications is anexciting aspect of the field and is one more reason why the demand for well-trained statisticianscontinues to be strong

Contributed by Dr Meenu Goel

The curtain lifts on Bryant Elementary Schools Spring Recorder Recital Ninety third-graders fumble with their instruments take a breath

and blow Their parents braced breathe too

as Hot Crossed Buns emerges a little scattershot -- the Normal Distribution brought to life

By Go Tell Aunt Rhodie the audience

is moved by their sheer pretty-goodness though one kid knocks her music to the floor

and another squeaks to demonstrate

the tail two standard deviations below the mean The curve implies

that somewhere on stage another kid

just played a note so sweet he might shatter Mrs Wedermeyers glasses And if

there are a mother and father who think

that child is theirs may they be forgiven even if the child shining in their eyes

is moving his fingers slightly out of rhythm

even if hes never led the bell curve in his life In consecutive measures of almost unison

its easy to believe these children are musicians

Their parents do so stirred by Ode to Joy they rise to their feet with the final phrase

clapping from the darkened auditorium

at once as one heroically like the parents theyve meant to be

EK NAYA SAFAR

Mubarak ho apko zindgi ka naya safar

Naya hai sheher nai hai dagar

Chut gaye kuch rishte purane

But donrsquot worry yaar mil jayenge naye diwane

Kuch tum jaise khuch tum se alag

So just smile and start a new life

Dosti yaari ko zara side mai rakh ke

Edhar gaur famiye janab

Course toh tumne acha chuna hai

Kuch socha hai ya ese hi liya hai

College mai admission jab hota hai

Toh andar khushi ke fuvare futne lagte hai

Lekin syllabus o dekh kar yeh bhi dagmagane lagte hai

Mana CP paas hai vahi maat ghumte rehna

Varna paper mai cafeacute ki menu sheet hi likhte rehna

Donrsquot take a chill pill coz yaha ki teachers hai thori strict

Just because they want you to be the best

Ab kya kare college ka har din mamuli nahi hota

Aur 9 se 4 sirf parai nahi hoti

Gumo firo esh karo but parna na bhulo

Mana es saal kuch zyada hi speed breakers hai

But the best part is hum sab bhi toh sath hai

PONDERINGAll of humanity is but a set of numbers You and I

are nothing more than a statisticJust think about any decision you had to take

recently No matter your choice you might findyourself ending up only as an infinitesimal

decimal in the final percentage of a statisticianrsquosdiscourse Let me give you an example pertinent

to the world we live in today Say yoursquore arepublican and have to decide whether to wear a

mask or not Naturally your political instinctmight warn you against it However you might

still be inclined to wear one because yoursquoregenuinely scared about what the ldquoliberalsrdquo have

to say about the SARS-COV-2 Now now letrsquos notgo off-topic here I know you might be wondering

what yoursquod do if you were in a Republicanrsquos shoesBut thatrsquos not the point

In the end it seldom matters whether you are arepublican or a liberal especially in situations

like these What matters in the end is if you didgo out without wearing that infuriating

smothering mask And if you contracted thewretched virus because of it If yes hard luck

Yoursquore nothing more than one of the 841 millionpeople who have it Thatrsquos all that people aroundthe world will see Not your gender not your ageand certainly not your political belief Of course

there will be studies about the correlation ofthese factors with the incidence rate of the

infections but thatrsquos another story altogether andnot one possibly as broad as the one we talk

aboutMoreover the correlation must not be

confused with causation Now perhaps thatrsquosa story for another day But think about it thisway whether you go to college or drop out of

high school whether you choose to live ordecide to die no matter the decision no

matter your inclination or choice whetheryou like it or not you will be nothing more

than a statisticIt might sound a bit gloomy to be honestWhen I first thought about it I felt almostinsignificant Like a tiny speck of dust in a

galaxy of stars Alas isnrsquot that all that we arethough

A pale blue dot in an ocean of stars Ourplanet one among millions or perhaps

billions of others All 78 billion of us fightingfor a place in the world knowing full well we

canrsquot all possibly have it It might makeanyone feel overwhelmed but therersquos

something about that that is so challenging itis almost inspiring We all know statistics andwe all know life But the true beauty of life lies

in the ability to defy statistics Only onequestion remains are you up for the

challenge

It wonrsquot be any exaggeration If itrsquos said that tools of statistician are used in almost all fields ofcalculation

Be it research finance sports marketing sales health care or population countingIt is a crucial process behind How we make discoveries in science

Making decisions or claiming predictions It plays a crucial play in all situationsStats is involved everywhere from collection to interpretation From explanation to

presentationStatistics helps avoiding a wide variety of analytical traps By making sure that study follow

apt methods in all aspectsChallenging your own assumptions Or drawing data-based conclusions

Statistics is always there Making things crisp and clear

again

And if you donrsquot buy wish try andpredict

Why also bother living the life you claim tohave lived

It always seems impossible until it is done

If it makes you happyit doesnt have to make sense to others

When you cant find the sunshinebe the sunshine

Either you run the day or let the day run you

When you focus on the goodthe good gets better

It takes the same energy to worry as it doesto be positive so use your energy to thinkpositive and positive things will happen

The one thing that doesnt abide by majority rule is a persons conscience

Make happiness a priority and be gentle with yourself in the process

College the best start to unfold lifes beauty

Goodbye to the mistakes weve made remember the laughs weve shared

Will never forget these years

People are capable at anytime in their lives of doing what they dream of

Nehal DixitStop measuring your degree of

productivity and replace it by degree ofpresence

Your time is limited so donrsquot waste it livingsomeone elsersquos life Donrsquot be trapped by

dogma ndash which is living with the results ofother peoplersquos thinking

I know that I will look back on these days as being the happiest of my life

Sometimes you will never know the value of a moment until it becomes a memory

Enjoyed college a lot it lasted almost as longas the lunch breaks

And thats a wrap on a degree where I acted like I knew what I was doing

The way to success holds a path of fight andIm sure to get it because look on the right rarr

They say the right hand is always powerful but so is my the one on the left larr

May every sunrise bring you hopeMay every sunset bring you peace

If you dont believe in yourself thenno one is going to believe in you So

Believe in Yourself

Be who you are and say what you feelbecause those who mind donrsquot matter and

those who matter donrsquot mind

Success is liking yourself liking what you do and liking how you do it

Happiness is a by-product of an effort to make someone else happy

If you are not willing to risk the unusual you will have to settle for the ordinary

Always keep it clean simple and precise

Hustle until you no longer have to introduce yourself

Dream it Wish it Do it

There are no limits to what you can accomplish except the limits you place

on your own thinking

The greatness of humanity is not in being human but in being humane

You will be exactly as happy as you decide

One thing to learn from the sun is thatwhenever a cloud tries to hinder itslight it finds its own path to shine

Excellence is not achieved - it is aspired to and trekked towards The tougher the trek

the better the views

I think the day we figure out everythingabout our lives is the day we die

Finding your magic can be scary but owning it will be EUPHORIA

An approximate answer to the right problem is worth a good deal more than

an exact answer to an approximate problem

Our greatest weakness lies in giving up The most certain way to succeed is always to try just one more time

The aim is to live happily heal throughevery situation and learn everything new

with every step taken

Believe in progress not perfection

Every moment is a fresh beginning

Small steps in the right direction can turn out to be the biggest steps of your life

ldquoCollege life is known as one of the most memorable years of astudentrsquos life exposing them to new experiences like meeting new

people learning new things exploring places etcrdquo

A registered clinical psychologist in Honk Kongnamed Zanonia Chiu said - ldquoGoing to school hadbeen a struggle for some children (withdepression) prior to the pandemic but at leastthey had school routines to stick with Now thatschools are closed some lock themselves upinside their rooms for weeks refusing to takeshowers eat or leave their beds For somechildren with depression there will beconsiderable difficulties adjusting back to normallife when college resumesrdquo and according to anonline survey conducted with the study periodfrom April 2020 to May 2020 - Total 531372 and 243 had symptoms of depressionanxiety and stress respectively with varyingseverities (N=727)The conclusion of the surveyindicated that COVID-19 is building psychologicaldistress among vulnerable college students asthey are forced to stay home along withworsening financial situations lifestyle changesfamily situations and time spent on variousactivities

Sounds so interesting and happening right Itis true indeed but along with stressful timeaside Along with the perks of enjoyingfreedom more than ever there comesacademic pressure tasks of separation fromfamilies career building futureresponsibilities etc Boarding on with thecollege life is a stressful time for manystudents thereby affecting their mental healthMental health problems are very commonamong college students and have been anincreasing concern However the COVID-19pandemic situation has brought this vulnerablepopulation into renewed focus Following thepandemic schools colleges offices andalmost every place that involved humaninteraction was shut It is important to note thatcollegeschool or even a normal routine areimportant coping mechanisms for youngpeople with mental health issues and wheneverything is shut down they lose an anchor inlife and their symptoms could relapse

Mental health among students is a big concernhowever ldquoUNTREATEDrdquo mental illnesses are amuch bigger and exponentially growingconcern Reaching out is an important step formental health issues to be addressed andtreated but reach out to who This is the pointwhere our institution should take over Collegesplay a big role in this stage Colleges doaddress this issue through means of orientationsessions and workshops but there is still a needto address mental health more directly Themethods to address mental health issuesshould be accessible feasible and affordablefor the students For example at NorthwesternUniversity student feedback led orientationenabled organizers to shift their focus fromexpert speakers to student testimonials Meansto address the issue vary from traditionalpresentations and panel discussions to roleplays small group discussions etc Herestudents learn how to recognize mental illnesssymptoms where to find resources andsupport and how to talk to friends who mightbe struggling

The findings of this study highlighted theurgent need to develop interventions andpreventive strategies to address the mentalhealth of college students Another InterviewSurvey study conducted by the Journal ofMedical Internet Research highlighted that of195 students 138 (71) indicated increasedstress and anxiety due to the COVID-19outbreak Multiple stressors were identified thatcontributed to the increased levels of stressanxiety and depressive thoughts amongstudents These included fear and worry abouttheir own health and of their loved ones(177195 91 reported negative impacts ofthe pandemic) difficulty in concentrating(173195 89) disruptions to sleepingpatterns (168195 86) decreased socialinteractions due to physical distancing(167195 86) and increased concerns onacademic performance (159195 82) Tocope with stress and anxiety participants havesought support from others and helpedthemselves by adopting either negative orpositive coping mechanisms It is important toknow that creating awareness about any issueis never enough action is what is neededTaking leave from workschool because of a fluor a fracture is acceptable and might even helpin the process of cure and healing howevertaking time off because of stress from a mentalillness such as anxiety or depressionunfortunately is not

lsquoOnline classrsquo is a term which most of us werenrsquotfamiliar with Before this pandemic we neverthought of getting education at home Covid hasaffected all of our lives In past pursuingeducation meant going to the schoolcollege Butnow the whole scenario has changed Childrenare studying and attending classes from homeJust like there are two sides of a coin onlineclasses also have some advantages anddisadvantages

Starting from the advantages it saves time forboth students and teachers as they donrsquot haveto travel All they have to do is to join throughtheir mobiles or laptops Secondly studentsdonrsquot have to necessarily buy books from theshops like they had to do in offline classesbecause they are given pdfs from which they canstudy Therefore it saves money Third it can beattended from anywhere in the world Unlike inthe offline classes where we had to gather at aparticular place Fourth computer basedpractical can be easily understood as studentscan share their screen with teachers Also it iseasy for teachers to explain a topic with the helpof pictures or animations which can be easilyfound on the internet

Last but not the least Parents can keep an eyeon their children whether they are studyingproperly or not

Apart from advantages it has somedisadvantages too First sitting beside thecomputer or mobile for hours affects the eyesightof both students and teachers Doctors arereporting many cases of eyestrain amongchildren since the online classes have startedSecondly students are becoming lazy as theydonrsquot have to go out of their home Like theproverb lsquoAll work and no play makes Jack a dullboyrsquo is really happening Third students canbunk in the online classes easily As they haveno fear of punishment they learned to disobeyand disrespect teachers Fourth students havebeen given lots of assignments as a result ofwhich most students are copying othersassignments and are not learning anything newFifth it is very difficult to communicate asteachers cannot give attention to each studentLastly it can be concluded that no matter howthe classes are being held a student must bededicated and sincere towards their studiesAfter all onersquos future depends on what they do intheir present

An actuary is a business executive professionally trained in the mathematical sciences Actuariesspecialize in the evaluation of financial riskmdashmost often in the context of life health and casualtyinsurance where they design analyse and refine varied programs to meet the insurance needs ofsociety A growing number of actuaries work in the areas of assetliability management and risk managementSome of these actuaries are employed by investment and consulting firms others are employed byinsurance companies

Actuaries have been called financial architects and social mathematicians because their combinedanalytical and business skills help solve a growing variety of financial and social problems Theactuarial profession is a demanding yet rewarding career choice

In a world bombarded with numerical information informed decisions rely on the ability to separatefact from fiction by applying valid statistical analyses and visualizations Statisticians can providecrucial guidance in determining what information is reliable and which predictions may be trustedThey often help search for clues to the solution of a scientific mystery and sometimes keepinvestigators from being misled by false impressions

Thousands of statisticians work in medicine law agriculture public policy marketing manufacturingengineering and other fields in the social and natural sciences The diversity of applications is anexciting aspect of the field and is one more reason why the demand for well-trained statisticianscontinues to be strong

Contributed by Dr Meenu Goel

The curtain lifts on Bryant Elementary Schools Spring Recorder Recital Ninety third-graders fumble with their instruments take a breath

and blow Their parents braced breathe too

as Hot Crossed Buns emerges a little scattershot -- the Normal Distribution brought to life

By Go Tell Aunt Rhodie the audience

is moved by their sheer pretty-goodness though one kid knocks her music to the floor

and another squeaks to demonstrate

the tail two standard deviations below the mean The curve implies

that somewhere on stage another kid

just played a note so sweet he might shatter Mrs Wedermeyers glasses And if

there are a mother and father who think

that child is theirs may they be forgiven even if the child shining in their eyes

is moving his fingers slightly out of rhythm

even if hes never led the bell curve in his life In consecutive measures of almost unison

its easy to believe these children are musicians

Their parents do so stirred by Ode to Joy they rise to their feet with the final phrase

clapping from the darkened auditorium

at once as one heroically like the parents theyve meant to be

EK NAYA SAFAR

Mubarak ho apko zindgi ka naya safar

Naya hai sheher nai hai dagar

Chut gaye kuch rishte purane

But donrsquot worry yaar mil jayenge naye diwane

Kuch tum jaise khuch tum se alag

So just smile and start a new life

Dosti yaari ko zara side mai rakh ke

Edhar gaur famiye janab

Course toh tumne acha chuna hai

Kuch socha hai ya ese hi liya hai

College mai admission jab hota hai

Toh andar khushi ke fuvare futne lagte hai

Lekin syllabus o dekh kar yeh bhi dagmagane lagte hai

Mana CP paas hai vahi maat ghumte rehna

Varna paper mai cafeacute ki menu sheet hi likhte rehna

Donrsquot take a chill pill coz yaha ki teachers hai thori strict

Just because they want you to be the best

Ab kya kare college ka har din mamuli nahi hota

Aur 9 se 4 sirf parai nahi hoti

Gumo firo esh karo but parna na bhulo

Mana es saal kuch zyada hi speed breakers hai

But the best part is hum sab bhi toh sath hai

PONDERINGAll of humanity is but a set of numbers You and I

are nothing more than a statisticJust think about any decision you had to take

recently No matter your choice you might findyourself ending up only as an infinitesimal

decimal in the final percentage of a statisticianrsquosdiscourse Let me give you an example pertinent

to the world we live in today Say yoursquore arepublican and have to decide whether to wear a

mask or not Naturally your political instinctmight warn you against it However you might

still be inclined to wear one because yoursquoregenuinely scared about what the ldquoliberalsrdquo have

to say about the SARS-COV-2 Now now letrsquos notgo off-topic here I know you might be wondering

what yoursquod do if you were in a Republicanrsquos shoesBut thatrsquos not the point

In the end it seldom matters whether you are arepublican or a liberal especially in situations

like these What matters in the end is if you didgo out without wearing that infuriating

smothering mask And if you contracted thewretched virus because of it If yes hard luck

Yoursquore nothing more than one of the 841 millionpeople who have it Thatrsquos all that people aroundthe world will see Not your gender not your ageand certainly not your political belief Of course

there will be studies about the correlation ofthese factors with the incidence rate of the

infections but thatrsquos another story altogether andnot one possibly as broad as the one we talk

aboutMoreover the correlation must not be

confused with causation Now perhaps thatrsquosa story for another day But think about it thisway whether you go to college or drop out of

high school whether you choose to live ordecide to die no matter the decision no

matter your inclination or choice whetheryou like it or not you will be nothing more

than a statisticIt might sound a bit gloomy to be honestWhen I first thought about it I felt almostinsignificant Like a tiny speck of dust in a

galaxy of stars Alas isnrsquot that all that we arethough

A pale blue dot in an ocean of stars Ourplanet one among millions or perhaps

billions of others All 78 billion of us fightingfor a place in the world knowing full well we

canrsquot all possibly have it It might makeanyone feel overwhelmed but therersquos

something about that that is so challenging itis almost inspiring We all know statistics andwe all know life But the true beauty of life lies

in the ability to defy statistics Only onequestion remains are you up for the

challenge

It wonrsquot be any exaggeration If itrsquos said that tools of statistician are used in almost all fields ofcalculation

Be it research finance sports marketing sales health care or population countingIt is a crucial process behind How we make discoveries in science

Making decisions or claiming predictions It plays a crucial play in all situationsStats is involved everywhere from collection to interpretation From explanation to

presentationStatistics helps avoiding a wide variety of analytical traps By making sure that study follow

apt methods in all aspectsChallenging your own assumptions Or drawing data-based conclusions

Statistics is always there Making things crisp and clear

Donrsquot buy that lottery ticket Donrsquot wish for a fallen wicket

Donrsquot wish to ldquomake itrdquo in a dying world Donrsquot wish for either a boy or a girl

Donrsquot predict vivid sunshine or rain Donrsquot bother to cry or complain

Statistically speaking it may all be in vain If you didnrsquot make it the first time why try

again

And if you donrsquot buy wish try andpredict

Why also bother living the life you claim tohave lived

It always seems impossible until it is done

If it makes you happyit doesnt have to make sense to others

When you cant find the sunshinebe the sunshine

Either you run the day or let the day run you

When you focus on the goodthe good gets better

It takes the same energy to worry as it doesto be positive so use your energy to thinkpositive and positive things will happen

The one thing that doesnt abide by majority rule is a persons conscience

Make happiness a priority and be gentle with yourself in the process

College the best start to unfold lifes beauty

Goodbye to the mistakes weve made remember the laughs weve shared

Will never forget these years

People are capable at anytime in their lives of doing what they dream of

Nehal DixitStop measuring your degree of

productivity and replace it by degree ofpresence

Conquer yourself not the world once you succeed in doing it the world will be all yours

Be who you are and say what you feel because in the end those who matter dont mind

and those who mind dont matter

Having charismatic and vibrant self is key tohappiness optimism and being systematic is

a way to success

When it rains look for rainbows when its dark look for stars

Believe you can and youre halfway there Fall in love with the process of becoming thevery best version of yourself

Rise above the storm and you will find sunshine

Do not change the path in front of your dreamswhatever happens do not break those dreams in yourmind You will find difficulties on every step but do

not leave the ground just to choose the stars

If people are trying to pull you down then you arealready better than them Just focus on your energies and

keep doing your best You will find happiness ) One more thing IF YOU DONT BETYOU CANT

Experiment College lifeNull hypothesis College life is amazing and

memorableAlternative hypothesis College life is difficult and

stressful

Test Statistics Given the observations for threeyears and some crazy friends the p value of Hobeing true is found to be greater than alpha

For all alpha level of laughters and fun we failto reject null hypothesis

friendsSo make friends and dont give up there is a lot more

Your time is limited so donrsquot waste it livingsomeone elsersquos life Donrsquot be trapped by

dogma ndash which is living with the results ofother peoplersquos thinking

I know that I will look back on these days as being the happiest of my life

Sometimes you will never know the value of a moment until it becomes a memory

Enjoyed college a lot it lasted almost as longas the lunch breaks

And thats a wrap on a degree where I acted like I knew what I was doing

The way to success holds a path of fight andIm sure to get it because look on the right rarr

May every sunrise bring you hopeMay every sunset bring you peace

If you dont believe in yourself thenno one is going to believe in you So

Believe in Yourself

Be who you are and say what you feelbecause those who mind donrsquot matter and

those who matter donrsquot mind

Success is liking yourself liking what you do and liking how you do it

Happiness is a by-product of an effort to make someone else happy

If you are not willing to risk the unusual you will have to settle for the ordinary

Always keep it clean simple and precise

Hustle until you no longer have to introduce yourself

Dream it Wish it Do it

There are no limits to what you can accomplish except the limits you place

on your own thinking

The greatness of humanity is not in being human but in being humane

You will be exactly as happy as you decide

One thing to learn from the sun is thatwhenever a cloud tries to hinder itslight it finds its own path to shine

Excellence is not achieved - it is aspired to and trekked towards The tougher the trek

the better the views

I think the day we figure out everythingabout our lives is the day we die

Finding your magic can be scary but owning it will be EUPHORIA

An approximate answer to the right problem is worth a good deal more than

an exact answer to an approximate problem

Our greatest weakness lies in giving up The most certain way to succeed is always to try just one more time

The aim is to live happily heal throughevery situation and learn everything new

with every step taken

Believe in progress not perfection

Shreya WahiAnjali Upahyay

Every moment is a fresh beginning

Small steps in the right direction can turn out to be the biggest steps of your life

Sometimes the most beautiful things happen in the most unexpected waysI still canrsquot get over the fact that my 3 years-long and the beautiful journeycame to an end I never thought that I would make such beautiful bonds incollege be it with the teachers or my classmates Mata Sundri College will always have a special place in my heart and in mylife It is this place that made me realize my true potential I entered thecollege with almost no expectations But looking back at the time I nowfeel that those years were the most special and the most beautiful onesThe kind of love and support I received from all the teachers cannot bedescribed in words The personal connection which I still have with myteachers would be missing had I been in some other college I amextremely grateful to them It was because of them that I started loving mysubject Statistics All the hard work put in by my teachers and by myselfpaid off in the end Never did I imagine that I would become the Universitytopper I still feel that I am living in a dream

It is one of my greatest accomplishments Receiving the Medal from theHonrsquoble Education Minister Shri Ramesh Pokhriyal was a matter of pride Ifeel so happy seeing my parents and teachers being proud of me I surelyknow that whenever Irsquoll need some help in the future my teachers willalways be there to guide me The only regret is that we didnrsquot get a chance to greet the teachers and ourfellow classmates one last time due to the pandemic But keeping thataside I will always cherish my journey Thank you Mata Sundri College forthe amazing experience

lsquoOnline classrsquo is a term which most of us werenrsquotfamiliar with Before this pandemic we neverthought of getting education at home Covid hasaffected all of our lives In past pursuingeducation meant going to the schoolcollege Butnow the whole scenario has changed Childrenare studying and attending classes from homeJust like there are two sides of a coin onlineclasses also have some advantages anddisadvantages

Starting from the advantages it saves time forboth students and teachers as they donrsquot haveto travel All they have to do is to join throughtheir mobiles or laptops Secondly studentsdonrsquot have to necessarily buy books from theshops like they had to do in offline classesbecause they are given pdfs from which they canstudy Therefore it saves money Third it can beattended from anywhere in the world Unlike inthe offline classes where we had to gather at aparticular place Fourth computer basedpractical can be easily understood as studentscan share their screen with teachers Also it iseasy for teachers to explain a topic with the helpof pictures or animations which can be easilyfound on the internet

Last but not the least Parents can keep an eyeon their children whether they are studyingproperly or not

Apart from advantages it has somedisadvantages too First sitting beside thecomputer or mobile for hours affects the eyesightof both students and teachers Doctors arereporting many cases of eyestrain amongchildren since the online classes have startedSecondly students are becoming lazy as theydonrsquot have to go out of their home Like theproverb lsquoAll work and no play makes Jack a dullboyrsquo is really happening Third students canbunk in the online classes easily As they haveno fear of punishment they learned to disobeyand disrespect teachers Fourth students havebeen given lots of assignments as a result ofwhich most students are copying othersassignments and are not learning anything newFifth it is very difficult to communicate asteachers cannot give attention to each studentLastly it can be concluded that no matter howthe classes are being held a student must bededicated and sincere towards their studiesAfter all onersquos future depends on what they do intheir present

An actuary is a business executive professionally trained in the mathematical sciences Actuariesspecialize in the evaluation of financial riskmdashmost often in the context of life health and casualtyinsurance where they design analyse and refine varied programs to meet the insurance needs ofsociety A growing number of actuaries work in the areas of assetliability management and risk managementSome of these actuaries are employed by investment and consulting firms others are employed byinsurance companies

Actuaries have been called financial architects and social mathematicians because their combinedanalytical and business skills help solve a growing variety of financial and social problems Theactuarial profession is a demanding yet rewarding career choice

In a world bombarded with numerical information informed decisions rely on the ability to separatefact from fiction by applying valid statistical analyses and visualizations Statisticians can providecrucial guidance in determining what information is reliable and which predictions may be trustedThey often help search for clues to the solution of a scientific mystery and sometimes keepinvestigators from being misled by false impressions

Thousands of statisticians work in medicine law agriculture public policy marketing manufacturingengineering and other fields in the social and natural sciences The diversity of applications is anexciting aspect of the field and is one more reason why the demand for well-trained statisticianscontinues to be strong

Contributed by Dr Meenu Goel

The curtain lifts on Bryant Elementary Schools Spring Recorder Recital Ninety third-graders fumble with their instruments take a breath

and blow Their parents braced breathe too

as Hot Crossed Buns emerges a little scattershot -- the Normal Distribution brought to life

By Go Tell Aunt Rhodie the audience

is moved by their sheer pretty-goodness though one kid knocks her music to the floor

and another squeaks to demonstrate

the tail two standard deviations below the mean The curve implies

that somewhere on stage another kid

just played a note so sweet he might shatter Mrs Wedermeyers glasses And if

there are a mother and father who think

that child is theirs may they be forgiven even if the child shining in their eyes

is moving his fingers slightly out of rhythm

even if hes never led the bell curve in his life In consecutive measures of almost unison

its easy to believe these children are musicians

Their parents do so stirred by Ode to Joy they rise to their feet with the final phrase

clapping from the darkened auditorium

at once as one heroically like the parents theyve meant to be

EK NAYA SAFAR

Mubarak ho apko zindgi ka naya safar

Naya hai sheher nai hai dagar

Chut gaye kuch rishte purane

But donrsquot worry yaar mil jayenge naye diwane

Kuch tum jaise khuch tum se alag

So just smile and start a new life

Dosti yaari ko zara side mai rakh ke

Edhar gaur famiye janab

Course toh tumne acha chuna hai

Kuch socha hai ya ese hi liya hai

College mai admission jab hota hai

Toh andar khushi ke fuvare futne lagte hai

Lekin syllabus o dekh kar yeh bhi dagmagane lagte hai

Mana CP paas hai vahi maat ghumte rehna

Varna paper mai cafeacute ki menu sheet hi likhte rehna

Donrsquot take a chill pill coz yaha ki teachers hai thori strict

Just because they want you to be the best

Ab kya kare college ka har din mamuli nahi hota

Aur 9 se 4 sirf parai nahi hoti

Gumo firo esh karo but parna na bhulo

Mana es saal kuch zyada hi speed breakers hai

But the best part is hum sab bhi toh sath hai

PONDERINGAll of humanity is but a set of numbers You and I

are nothing more than a statisticJust think about any decision you had to take

recently No matter your choice you might findyourself ending up only as an infinitesimal

decimal in the final percentage of a statisticianrsquosdiscourse Let me give you an example pertinent

to the world we live in today Say yoursquore arepublican and have to decide whether to wear a

mask or not Naturally your political instinctmight warn you against it However you might

still be inclined to wear one because yoursquoregenuinely scared about what the ldquoliberalsrdquo have

to say about the SARS-COV-2 Now now letrsquos notgo off-topic here I know you might be wondering

what yoursquod do if you were in a Republicanrsquos shoesBut thatrsquos not the point

In the end it seldom matters whether you are arepublican or a liberal especially in situations

like these What matters in the end is if you didgo out without wearing that infuriating

smothering mask And if you contracted thewretched virus because of it If yes hard luck

Yoursquore nothing more than one of the 841 millionpeople who have it Thatrsquos all that people aroundthe world will see Not your gender not your ageand certainly not your political belief Of course

there will be studies about the correlation ofthese factors with the incidence rate of the

infections but thatrsquos another story altogether andnot one possibly as broad as the one we talk

aboutMoreover the correlation must not be

confused with causation Now perhaps thatrsquosa story for another day But think about it thisway whether you go to college or drop out of

high school whether you choose to live ordecide to die no matter the decision no

matter your inclination or choice whetheryou like it or not you will be nothing more

than a statisticIt might sound a bit gloomy to be honestWhen I first thought about it I felt almostinsignificant Like a tiny speck of dust in a

galaxy of stars Alas isnrsquot that all that we arethough

A pale blue dot in an ocean of stars Ourplanet one among millions or perhaps

billions of others All 78 billion of us fightingfor a place in the world knowing full well we

canrsquot all possibly have it It might makeanyone feel overwhelmed but therersquos

something about that that is so challenging itis almost inspiring We all know statistics andwe all know life But the true beauty of life lies

in the ability to defy statistics Only onequestion remains are you up for the

challenge

It wonrsquot be any exaggeration If itrsquos said that tools of statistician are used in almost all fields ofcalculation

Be it research finance sports marketing sales health care or population countingIt is a crucial process behind How we make discoveries in science

Making decisions or claiming predictions It plays a crucial play in all situationsStats is involved everywhere from collection to interpretation From explanation to

presentationStatistics helps avoiding a wide variety of analytical traps By making sure that study follow

apt methods in all aspectsChallenging your own assumptions Or drawing data-based conclusions

Statistics is always there Making things crisp and clear

It always seems impossible until it is done

If it makes you happyit doesnt have to make sense to others

When you cant find the sunshinebe the sunshine

Either you run the day or let the day run you

When you focus on the goodthe good gets better

It takes the same energy to worry as it doesto be positive so use your energy to thinkpositive and positive things will happen

The one thing that doesnt abide by majority rule is a persons conscience

Make happiness a priority and be gentle with yourself in the process

College the best start to unfold lifes beauty

Goodbye to the mistakes weve made remember the laughs weve shared

Will never forget these years

People are capable at anytime in their lives of doing what they dream of

Nehal DixitStop measuring your degree of

productivity and replace it by degree ofpresence

Conquer yourself not the world once you succeed in doing it the world will be all yours

Be who you are and say what you feel because in the end those who matter dont mind

and those who mind dont matter

Having charismatic and vibrant self is key tohappiness optimism and being systematic is

a way to success

When it rains look for rainbows when its dark look for stars

Believe you can and youre halfway there Fall in love with the process of becoming thevery best version of yourself

Rise above the storm and you will find sunshine

Do not change the path in front of your dreamswhatever happens do not break those dreams in yourmind You will find difficulties on every step but do

not leave the ground just to choose the stars

If people are trying to pull you down then you arealready better than them Just focus on your energies and

keep doing your best You will find happiness ) One more thing IF YOU DONT BETYOU CANT

May every sunrise bring you hopeMay every sunset bring you peace

If you dont believe in yourself thenno one is going to believe in you So

Believe in Yourself

Be who you are and say what you feelbecause those who mind donrsquot matter and

those who matter donrsquot mind

Success is liking yourself liking what you do and liking how you do it

Happiness is a by-product of an effort to make someone else happy

If you are not willing to risk the unusual you will have to settle for the ordinary

Always keep it clean simple and precise

Hustle until you no longer have to introduce yourself

Dream it Wish it Do it

There are no limits to what you can accomplish except the limits you place

on your own thinking

The greatness of humanity is not in being human but in being humane

You will be exactly as happy as you decide

One thing to learn from the sun is thatwhenever a cloud tries to hinder itslight it finds its own path to shine

Excellence is not achieved - it is aspired to and trekked towards The tougher the trek

the better the views

I think the day we figure out everythingabout our lives is the day we die

Finding your magic can be scary but owning it will be EUPHORIA

An approximate answer to the right problem is worth a good deal more than

an exact answer to an approximate problem

Our greatest weakness lies in giving up The most certain way to succeed is always to try just one more time

The aim is to live happily heal throughevery situation and learn everything new

with every step taken

Believe in progress not perfection

ALUMINI SPEAKSIts been a privilege to be the leading batch of the Department of StatisticsMata Sundri College None less than a roller coaster with every newchallenge we have rocked it on together With the amazing faculty it neverfelt like we needed the Seniors We have created our paths and wont letour juniors struggle for it always there to their rescue I have been a part of the statistics society for all the years and haveexperienced the best of it I see the society and the department growingwhich surely adds a feather to my capWishing for the best of it with all my heartI wish I could relive those best three years spent at the department witheveryone in my batch and the teachersGood luck

Sometimes the most beautiful things happen in the most unexpected waysI still canrsquot get over the fact that my 3 years-long and the beautiful journeycame to an end I never thought that I would make such beautiful bonds incollege be it with the teachers or my classmates Mata Sundri College will always have a special place in my heart and in mylife It is this place that made me realize my true potential I entered thecollege with almost no expectations But looking back at the time I nowfeel that those years were the most special and the most beautiful onesThe kind of love and support I received from all the teachers cannot bedescribed in words The personal connection which I still have with myteachers would be missing had I been in some other college I amextremely grateful to them It was because of them that I started loving mysubject Statistics All the hard work put in by my teachers and by myselfpaid off in the end Never did I imagine that I would become the Universitytopper I still feel that I am living in a dream

It is one of my greatest accomplishments Receiving the Medal from theHonrsquoble Education Minister Shri Ramesh Pokhriyal was a matter of pride Ifeel so happy seeing my parents and teachers being proud of me I surelyknow that whenever Irsquoll need some help in the future my teachers willalways be there to guide me The only regret is that we didnrsquot get a chance to greet the teachers and ourfellow classmates one last time due to the pandemic But keeping thataside I will always cherish my journey Thank you Mata Sundri College forthe amazing experience

lsquoOnline classrsquo is a term which most of us werenrsquotfamiliar with Before this pandemic we neverthought of getting education at home Covid hasaffected all of our lives In past pursuingeducation meant going to the schoolcollege Butnow the whole scenario has changed Childrenare studying and attending classes from homeJust like there are two sides of a coin onlineclasses also have some advantages anddisadvantages

Starting from the advantages it saves time forboth students and teachers as they donrsquot haveto travel All they have to do is to join throughtheir mobiles or laptops Secondly studentsdonrsquot have to necessarily buy books from theshops like they had to do in offline classesbecause they are given pdfs from which they canstudy Therefore it saves money Third it can beattended from anywhere in the world Unlike inthe offline classes where we had to gather at aparticular place Fourth computer basedpractical can be easily understood as studentscan share their screen with teachers Also it iseasy for teachers to explain a topic with the helpof pictures or animations which can be easilyfound on the internet

Last but not the least Parents can keep an eyeon their children whether they are studyingproperly or not

Apart from advantages it has somedisadvantages too First sitting beside thecomputer or mobile for hours affects the eyesightof both students and teachers Doctors arereporting many cases of eyestrain amongchildren since the online classes have startedSecondly students are becoming lazy as theydonrsquot have to go out of their home Like theproverb lsquoAll work and no play makes Jack a dullboyrsquo is really happening Third students canbunk in the online classes easily As they haveno fear of punishment they learned to disobeyand disrespect teachers Fourth students havebeen given lots of assignments as a result ofwhich most students are copying othersassignments and are not learning anything newFifth it is very difficult to communicate asteachers cannot give attention to each studentLastly it can be concluded that no matter howthe classes are being held a student must bededicated and sincere towards their studiesAfter all onersquos future depends on what they do intheir present

An actuary is a business executive professionally trained in the mathematical sciences Actuariesspecialize in the evaluation of financial riskmdashmost often in the context of life health and casualtyinsurance where they design analyse and refine varied programs to meet the insurance needs ofsociety A growing number of actuaries work in the areas of assetliability management and risk managementSome of these actuaries are employed by investment and consulting firms others are employed byinsurance companies

Actuaries have been called financial architects and social mathematicians because their combinedanalytical and business skills help solve a growing variety of financial and social problems Theactuarial profession is a demanding yet rewarding career choice

In a world bombarded with numerical information informed decisions rely on the ability to separatefact from fiction by applying valid statistical analyses and visualizations Statisticians can providecrucial guidance in determining what information is reliable and which predictions may be trustedThey often help search for clues to the solution of a scientific mystery and sometimes keepinvestigators from being misled by false impressions

Thousands of statisticians work in medicine law agriculture public policy marketing manufacturingengineering and other fields in the social and natural sciences The diversity of applications is anexciting aspect of the field and is one more reason why the demand for well-trained statisticianscontinues to be strong

Poetry

Contributed by Dr Komal Goel

(41)

Contributed by Dr Meenu Goel

The curtain lifts on Bryant Elementary Schools Spring Recorder Recital Ninety third-graders fumble with their instruments take a breath

and blow Their parents braced breathe too

as Hot Crossed Buns emerges a little scattershot -- the Normal Distribution brought to life

By Go Tell Aunt Rhodie the audience

is moved by their sheer pretty-goodness though one kid knocks her music to the floor

and another squeaks to demonstrate

the tail two standard deviations below the mean The curve implies

that somewhere on stage another kid

just played a note so sweet he might shatter Mrs Wedermeyers glasses And if

there are a mother and father who think

that child is theirs may they be forgiven even if the child shining in their eyes

is moving his fingers slightly out of rhythm

even if hes never led the bell curve in his life In consecutive measures of almost unison

its easy to believe these children are musicians

Their parents do so stirred by Ode to Joy they rise to their feet with the final phrase

clapping from the darkened auditorium

at once as one heroically like the parents theyve meant to be

EK NAYA SAFAR

Mubarak ho apko zindgi ka naya safar

Naya hai sheher nai hai dagar

Chut gaye kuch rishte purane

But donrsquot worry yaar mil jayenge naye diwane

Kuch tum jaise khuch tum se alag

So just smile and start a new life

Dosti yaari ko zara side mai rakh ke

Edhar gaur famiye janab

Course toh tumne acha chuna hai

Kuch socha hai ya ese hi liya hai

College mai admission jab hota hai

Toh andar khushi ke fuvare futne lagte hai

Lekin syllabus o dekh kar yeh bhi dagmagane lagte hai

Mana CP paas hai vahi maat ghumte rehna

Varna paper mai cafeacute ki menu sheet hi likhte rehna

Donrsquot take a chill pill coz yaha ki teachers hai thori strict

Just because they want you to be the best

Ab kya kare college ka har din mamuli nahi hota

Aur 9 se 4 sirf parai nahi hoti

Gumo firo esh karo but parna na bhulo

Mana es saal kuch zyada hi speed breakers hai

But the best part is hum sab bhi toh sath hai

PONDERINGAll of humanity is but a set of numbers You and I

are nothing more than a statisticJust think about any decision you had to take

recently No matter your choice you might findyourself ending up only as an infinitesimal

decimal in the final percentage of a statisticianrsquosdiscourse Let me give you an example pertinent

to the world we live in today Say yoursquore arepublican and have to decide whether to wear a

mask or not Naturally your political instinctmight warn you against it However you might

still be inclined to wear one because yoursquoregenuinely scared about what the ldquoliberalsrdquo have

to say about the SARS-COV-2 Now now letrsquos notgo off-topic here I know you might be wondering

what yoursquod do if you were in a Republicanrsquos shoesBut thatrsquos not the point

In the end it seldom matters whether you are arepublican or a liberal especially in situations

like these What matters in the end is if you didgo out without wearing that infuriating

smothering mask And if you contracted thewretched virus because of it If yes hard luck

Yoursquore nothing more than one of the 841 millionpeople who have it Thatrsquos all that people aroundthe world will see Not your gender not your ageand certainly not your political belief Of course

there will be studies about the correlation ofthese factors with the incidence rate of the

infections but thatrsquos another story altogether andnot one possibly as broad as the one we talk

aboutMoreover the correlation must not be

confused with causation Now perhaps thatrsquosa story for another day But think about it thisway whether you go to college or drop out of

high school whether you choose to live ordecide to die no matter the decision no

matter your inclination or choice whetheryou like it or not you will be nothing more

than a statisticIt might sound a bit gloomy to be honestWhen I first thought about it I felt almostinsignificant Like a tiny speck of dust in a

galaxy of stars Alas isnrsquot that all that we arethough

A pale blue dot in an ocean of stars Ourplanet one among millions or perhaps

billions of others All 78 billion of us fightingfor a place in the world knowing full well we

canrsquot all possibly have it It might makeanyone feel overwhelmed but therersquos

something about that that is so challenging itis almost inspiring We all know statistics andwe all know life But the true beauty of life lies

in the ability to defy statistics Only onequestion remains are you up for the

challenge

It wonrsquot be any exaggeration If itrsquos said that tools of statistician are used in almost all fields ofcalculation

Be it research finance sports marketing sales health care or population countingIt is a crucial process behind How we make discoveries in science

Making decisions or claiming predictions It plays a crucial play in all situationsStats is involved everywhere from collection to interpretation From explanation to

presentationStatistics helps avoiding a wide variety of analytical traps By making sure that study follow

apt methods in all aspectsChallenging your own assumptions Or drawing data-based conclusions

It always seems impossible until it is done

If it makes you happyit doesnt have to make sense to others

When you cant find the sunshinebe the sunshine

Either you run the day or let the day run you

When you focus on the goodthe good gets better

It takes the same energy to worry as it doesto be positive so use your energy to thinkpositive and positive things will happen

The one thing that doesnt abide by majority rule is a persons conscience

Make happiness a priority and be gentle with yourself in the process

College the best start to unfold lifes beauty

Goodbye to the mistakes weve made remember the laughs weve shared

Will never forget these years

People are capable at anytime in their lives of doing what they dream of

Nehal DixitStop measuring your degree of

productivity and replace it by degree ofpresence

Conquer yourself not the world once you succeed in doing it the world will be all yours

Be who you are and say what you feel because in the end those who matter dont mind

and those who mind dont matter

Having charismatic and vibrant self is key tohappiness optimism and being systematic is

a way to success

When it rains look for rainbows when its dark look for stars

Believe you can and youre halfway there Fall in love with the process of becoming thevery best version of yourself

Rise above the storm and you will find sunshine

Do not change the path in front of your dreamswhatever happens do not break those dreams in yourmind You will find difficulties on every step but do

not leave the ground just to choose the stars

If people are trying to pull you down then you arealready better than them Just focus on your energies and

keep doing your best You will find happiness ) One more thing IF YOU DONT BETYOU CANT

memorableAlternative hypothesis College life is difficult and

Test Statistics Given the observations for threeyears and some crazy friends the p value of Hobeing true is found to be greater than alpha

For all alpha level of laughters and fun we failto reject null hypothesis

Conclusion Therefore we conclude that college life isamazing full of adventures with a lot of new things tolearn and can be made memorable with a few but real

friendsSo make friends and dont give up there is a lot more

you can achieve in your life ahead

May every sunrise bring you hopeMay every sunset bring you peace

If you dont believe in yourself thenno one is going to believe in you So

Believe in Yourself

Be who you are and say what you feelbecause those who mind donrsquot matter and

those who matter donrsquot mind

Success is liking yourself liking what you do and liking how you do it

Happiness is a by-product of an effort to make someone else happy

If you are not willing to risk the unusual you will have to settle for the ordinary

Always keep it clean simple and precise

Hustle until you no longer have to introduce yourself

Dream it Wish it Do it

There are no limits to what you can accomplish except the limits you place

on your own thinking

The greatness of humanity is not in being human but in being humane

You will be exactly as happy as you decide

One thing to learn from the sun is thatwhenever a cloud tries to hinder itslight it finds its own path to shine

Excellence is not achieved - it is aspired to and trekked towards The tougher the trek

the better the views

I think the day we figure out everythingabout our lives is the day we die

Finding your magic can be scary but owning it will be EUPHORIA

An approximate answer to the right problem is worth a good deal more than

an exact answer to an approximate problem

Our greatest weakness lies in giving up The most certain way to succeed is always to try just one more time

The aim is to live happily heal throughevery situation and learn everything new

with every step taken

Believe in progress not perfection

Every moment is a fresh beginning

Small steps in the right direction can turn out to be the biggest steps of your life

ALUMINI SPEAKSIts been a privilege to be the leading batch of the Department of StatisticsMata Sundri College None less than a roller coaster with every newchallenge we have rocked it on together With the amazing faculty it neverfelt like we needed the Seniors We have created our paths and wont letour juniors struggle for it always there to their rescue I have been a part of the statistics society for all the years and haveexperienced the best of it I see the society and the department growingwhich surely adds a feather to my capWishing for the best of it with all my heartI wish I could relive those best three years spent at the department witheveryone in my batch and the teachersGood luck

Sometimes the most beautiful things happen in the most unexpected waysI still canrsquot get over the fact that my 3 years-long and the beautiful journeycame to an end I never thought that I would make such beautiful bonds incollege be it with the teachers or my classmates Mata Sundri College will always have a special place in my heart and in mylife It is this place that made me realize my true potential I entered thecollege with almost no expectations But looking back at the time I nowfeel that those years were the most special and the most beautiful onesThe kind of love and support I received from all the teachers cannot bedescribed in words The personal connection which I still have with myteachers would be missing had I been in some other college I amextremely grateful to them It was because of them that I started loving mysubject Statistics All the hard work put in by my teachers and by myselfpaid off in the end Never did I imagine that I would become the Universitytopper I still feel that I am living in a dream

It is one of my greatest accomplishments Receiving the Medal from theHonrsquoble Education Minister Shri Ramesh Pokhriyal was a matter of pride Ifeel so happy seeing my parents and teachers being proud of me I surelyknow that whenever Irsquoll need some help in the future my teachers willalways be there to guide me The only regret is that we didnrsquot get a chance to greet the teachers and ourfellow classmates one last time due to the pandemic But keeping thataside I will always cherish my journey Thank you Mata Sundri College forthe amazing experience

An actuary is a business executive professionally trained in the mathematical sciences Actuariesspecialize in the evaluation of financial riskmdashmost often in the context of life health and casualtyinsurance where they design analyse and refine varied programs to meet the insurance needs ofsociety A growing number of actuaries work in the areas of assetliability management and risk managementSome of these actuaries are employed by investment and consulting firms others are employed byinsurance companies

Actuaries have been called financial architects and social mathematicians because their combinedanalytical and business skills help solve a growing variety of financial and social problems Theactuarial profession is a demanding yet rewarding career choice

In a world bombarded with numerical information informed decisions rely on the ability to separatefact from fiction by applying valid statistical analyses and visualizations Statisticians can providecrucial guidance in determining what information is reliable and which predictions may be trustedThey often help search for clues to the solution of a scientific mystery and sometimes keepinvestigators from being misled by false impressions

Thousands of statisticians work in medicine law agriculture public policy marketing manufacturingengineering and other fields in the social and natural sciences The diversity of applications is anexciting aspect of the field and is one more reason why the demand for well-trained statisticianscontinues to be strong

Contributed by Dr Meenu Goel

The curtain lifts on Bryant Elementary Schools Spring Recorder Recital Ninety third-graders fumble with their instruments take a breath

and blow Their parents braced breathe too

as Hot Crossed Buns emerges a little scattershot -- the Normal Distribution brought to life

By Go Tell Aunt Rhodie the audience

is moved by their sheer pretty-goodness though one kid knocks her music to the floor

and another squeaks to demonstrate

the tail two standard deviations below the mean The curve implies

that somewhere on stage another kid

just played a note so sweet he might shatter Mrs Wedermeyers glasses And if

there are a mother and father who think

that child is theirs may they be forgiven even if the child shining in their eyes

is moving his fingers slightly out of rhythm

even if hes never led the bell curve in his life In consecutive measures of almost unison

its easy to believe these children are musicians

Their parents do so stirred by Ode to Joy they rise to their feet with the final phrase

clapping from the darkened auditorium

at once as one heroically like the parents theyve meant to be

EK NAYA SAFAR

Mubarak ho apko zindgi ka naya safar

Naya hai sheher nai hai dagar

Chut gaye kuch rishte purane

But donrsquot worry yaar mil jayenge naye diwane

Kuch tum jaise khuch tum se alag

So just smile and start a new life

Dosti yaari ko zara side mai rakh ke

Edhar gaur famiye janab

Course toh tumne acha chuna hai

Kuch socha hai ya ese hi liya hai

College mai admission jab hota hai

Toh andar khushi ke fuvare futne lagte hai

Lekin syllabus o dekh kar yeh bhi dagmagane lagte hai

Mana CP paas hai vahi maat ghumte rehna

Varna paper mai cafeacute ki menu sheet hi likhte rehna

Donrsquot take a chill pill coz yaha ki teachers hai thori strict

Just because they want you to be the best

Ab kya kare college ka har din mamuli nahi hota

Aur 9 se 4 sirf parai nahi hoti

Gumo firo esh karo but parna na bhulo

Mana es saal kuch zyada hi speed breakers hai

But the best part is hum sab bhi toh sath hai

PONDERINGAll of humanity is but a set of numbers You and I

are nothing more than a statisticJust think about any decision you had to take

recently No matter your choice you might findyourself ending up only as an infinitesimal

decimal in the final percentage of a statisticianrsquosdiscourse Let me give you an example pertinent

to the world we live in today Say yoursquore arepublican and have to decide whether to wear a

mask or not Naturally your political instinctmight warn you against it However you might

still be inclined to wear one because yoursquoregenuinely scared about what the ldquoliberalsrdquo have

to say about the SARS-COV-2 Now now letrsquos notgo off-topic here I know you might be wondering

what yoursquod do if you were in a Republicanrsquos shoesBut thatrsquos not the point

In the end it seldom matters whether you are arepublican or a liberal especially in situations

like these What matters in the end is if you didgo out without wearing that infuriating

smothering mask And if you contracted thewretched virus because of it If yes hard luck

Yoursquore nothing more than one of the 841 millionpeople who have it Thatrsquos all that people aroundthe world will see Not your gender not your ageand certainly not your political belief Of course

there will be studies about the correlation ofthese factors with the incidence rate of the

infections but thatrsquos another story altogether andnot one possibly as broad as the one we talk

aboutMoreover the correlation must not be

confused with causation Now perhaps thatrsquosa story for another day But think about it thisway whether you go to college or drop out of

high school whether you choose to live ordecide to die no matter the decision no

matter your inclination or choice whetheryou like it or not you will be nothing more

than a statisticIt might sound a bit gloomy to be honestWhen I first thought about it I felt almostinsignificant Like a tiny speck of dust in a

galaxy of stars Alas isnrsquot that all that we arethough

A pale blue dot in an ocean of stars Ourplanet one among millions or perhaps

billions of others All 78 billion of us fightingfor a place in the world knowing full well we

canrsquot all possibly have it It might makeanyone feel overwhelmed but therersquos

something about that that is so challenging itis almost inspiring We all know statistics andwe all know life But the true beauty of life lies

in the ability to defy statistics Only onequestion remains are you up for the

challenge

It wonrsquot be any exaggeration If itrsquos said that tools of statistician are used in almost all fields ofcalculation

Be it research finance sports marketing sales health care or population countingIt is a crucial process behind How we make discoveries in science

Making decisions or claiming predictions It plays a crucial play in all situationsStats is involved everywhere from collection to interpretation From explanation to

presentationStatistics helps avoiding a wide variety of analytical traps By making sure that study follow

apt methods in all aspectsChallenging your own assumptions Or drawing data-based conclusions

Statistics is always there Making things crisp and clear

When you cant find the sunshinebe the sunshine

Either you run the day or let the day run you

When you focus on the goodthe good gets better

It takes the same energy to worry as it doesto be positive so use your energy to thinkpositive and positive things will happen

The one thing that doesnt abide by majority rule is a persons conscience

Make happiness a priority and be gentle with yourself in the process

College the best start to unfold lifes beauty

Goodbye to the mistakes weve made remember the laughs weve shared

Will never forget these years

People are capable at anytime in their lives of doing what they dream of

Nehal DixitStop measuring your degree of

productivity and replace it by degree ofpresence

Conquer yourself not the world once you succeed in doing it the world will be all yours

Be who you are and say what you feel because in the end those who matter dont mind

and those who mind dont matter

Having charismatic and vibrant self is key tohappiness optimism and being systematic is

a way to success

When it rains look for rainbows when its dark look for stars

Believe you can and youre halfway there Fall in love with the process of becoming thevery best version of yourself

Rise above the storm and you will find sunshine

Do not change the path in front of your dreamswhatever happens do not break those dreams in yourmind You will find difficulties on every step but do

not leave the ground just to choose the stars

If people are trying to pull you down then you arealready better than them Just focus on your energies and

keep doing your best You will find happiness ) One more thing IF YOU DONT BETYOU CANT

Test Statistics Given the observations for threeyears and some crazy friends the p value of Hobeing true is found to be greater than alpha

For all alpha level of laughters and fun we failto reject null hypothesis

friendsSo make friends and dont give up there is a lot more

May every sunrise bring you hopeMay every sunset bring you peace

If you dont believe in yourself thenno one is going to believe in you So

Believe in Yourself

Be who you are and say what you feelbecause those who mind donrsquot matter and

those who matter donrsquot mind

Success is liking yourself liking what you do and liking how you do it

Happiness is a by-product of an effort to make someone else happy

If you are not willing to risk the unusual you will have to settle for the ordinary

Always keep it clean simple and precise

Hustle until you no longer have to introduce yourself

Dream it Wish it Do it

There are no limits to what you can accomplish except the limits you place

on your own thinking

The greatness of humanity is not in being human but in being humane

You will be exactly as happy as you decide

One thing to learn from the sun is thatwhenever a cloud tries to hinder itslight it finds its own path to shine

Excellence is not achieved - it is aspired to and trekked towards The tougher the trek

the better the views

I think the day we figure out everythingabout our lives is the day we die

Finding your magic can be scary but owning it will be EUPHORIA

An approximate answer to the right problem is worth a good deal more than

an exact answer to an approximate problem

Our greatest weakness lies in giving up The most certain way to succeed is always to try just one more time

The aim is to live happily heal throughevery situation and learn everything new

with every step taken

Believe in progress not perfection

ALUMINI SPEAKSIts been a privilege to be the leading batch of the Department of StatisticsMata Sundri College None less than a roller coaster with every newchallenge we have rocked it on together With the amazing faculty it neverfelt like we needed the Seniors We have created our paths and wont letour juniors struggle for it always there to their rescue I have been a part of the statistics society for all the years and haveexperienced the best of it I see the society and the department growingwhich surely adds a feather to my capWishing for the best of it with all my heartI wish I could relive those best three years spent at the department witheveryone in my batch and the teachersGood luck

Sometimes the most beautiful things happen in the most unexpected waysI still canrsquot get over the fact that my 3 years-long and the beautiful journeycame to an end I never thought that I would make such beautiful bonds incollege be it with the teachers or my classmates Mata Sundri College will always have a special place in my heart and in mylife It is this place that made me realize my true potential I entered thecollege with almost no expectations But looking back at the time I nowfeel that those years were the most special and the most beautiful onesThe kind of love and support I received from all the teachers cannot bedescribed in words The personal connection which I still have with myteachers would be missing had I been in some other college I amextremely grateful to them It was because of them that I started loving mysubject Statistics All the hard work put in by my teachers and by myselfpaid off in the end Never did I imagine that I would become the Universitytopper I still feel that I am living in a dream

It is one of my greatest accomplishments Receiving the Medal from theHonrsquoble Education Minister Shri Ramesh Pokhriyal was a matter of pride Ifeel so happy seeing my parents and teachers being proud of me I surelyknow that whenever Irsquoll need some help in the future my teachers willalways be there to guide me The only regret is that we didnrsquot get a chance to greet the teachers and ourfellow classmates one last time due to the pandemic But keeping thataside I will always cherish my journey Thank you Mata Sundri College forthe amazing experience

Poetry

Contributed by Dr Komal Goel

by Anubis the Philosomancer

(41)

Contributed by Dr Meenu Goel

The curtain lifts on Bryant Elementary Schools Spring Recorder Recital Ninety third-graders fumble with their instruments take a breath

and blow Their parents braced breathe too

as Hot Crossed Buns emerges a little scattershot -- the Normal Distribution brought to life

By Go Tell Aunt Rhodie the audience

is moved by their sheer pretty-goodness though one kid knocks her music to the floor

and another squeaks to demonstrate

the tail two standard deviations below the mean The curve implies

that somewhere on stage another kid

just played a note so sweet he might shatter Mrs Wedermeyers glasses And if

there are a mother and father who think

that child is theirs may they be forgiven even if the child shining in their eyes

is moving his fingers slightly out of rhythm

even if hes never led the bell curve in his life In consecutive measures of almost unison

its easy to believe these children are musicians

Their parents do so stirred by Ode to Joy they rise to their feet with the final phrase

clapping from the darkened auditorium

at once as one heroically like the parents theyve meant to be

EK NAYA SAFAR

Mubarak ho apko zindgi ka naya safar

Naya hai sheher nai hai dagar

Chut gaye kuch rishte purane

But donrsquot worry yaar mil jayenge naye diwane

Kuch tum jaise khuch tum se alag

So just smile and start a new life

Dosti yaari ko zara side mai rakh ke

Edhar gaur famiye janab

Course toh tumne acha chuna hai

Kuch socha hai ya ese hi liya hai

College mai admission jab hota hai

Toh andar khushi ke fuvare futne lagte hai

Lekin syllabus o dekh kar yeh bhi dagmagane lagte hai

Mana CP paas hai vahi maat ghumte rehna

Varna paper mai cafeacute ki menu sheet hi likhte rehna

Donrsquot take a chill pill coz yaha ki teachers hai thori strict

Just because they want you to be the best

Ab kya kare college ka har din mamuli nahi hota

Aur 9 se 4 sirf parai nahi hoti

Gumo firo esh karo but parna na bhulo

Mana es saal kuch zyada hi speed breakers hai

But the best part is hum sab bhi toh sath hai

PONDERINGAll of humanity is but a set of numbers You and I

are nothing more than a statisticJust think about any decision you had to take

recently No matter your choice you might findyourself ending up only as an infinitesimal

decimal in the final percentage of a statisticianrsquosdiscourse Let me give you an example pertinent

to the world we live in today Say yoursquore arepublican and have to decide whether to wear a

mask or not Naturally your political instinctmight warn you against it However you might

still be inclined to wear one because yoursquoregenuinely scared about what the ldquoliberalsrdquo have

to say about the SARS-COV-2 Now now letrsquos notgo off-topic here I know you might be wondering

what yoursquod do if you were in a Republicanrsquos shoesBut thatrsquos not the point

In the end it seldom matters whether you are arepublican or a liberal especially in situations

like these What matters in the end is if you didgo out without wearing that infuriating

smothering mask And if you contracted thewretched virus because of it If yes hard luck

Yoursquore nothing more than one of the 841 millionpeople who have it Thatrsquos all that people aroundthe world will see Not your gender not your ageand certainly not your political belief Of course

there will be studies about the correlation ofthese factors with the incidence rate of the

infections but thatrsquos another story altogether andnot one possibly as broad as the one we talk

aboutMoreover the correlation must not be

confused with causation Now perhaps thatrsquosa story for another day But think about it thisway whether you go to college or drop out of

high school whether you choose to live ordecide to die no matter the decision no

matter your inclination or choice whetheryou like it or not you will be nothing more

than a statisticIt might sound a bit gloomy to be honestWhen I first thought about it I felt almostinsignificant Like a tiny speck of dust in a

galaxy of stars Alas isnrsquot that all that we arethough

A pale blue dot in an ocean of stars Ourplanet one among millions or perhaps

billions of others All 78 billion of us fightingfor a place in the world knowing full well we

canrsquot all possibly have it It might makeanyone feel overwhelmed but therersquos

something about that that is so challenging itis almost inspiring We all know statistics andwe all know life But the true beauty of life lies

in the ability to defy statistics Only onequestion remains are you up for the

challenge

It wonrsquot be any exaggeration If itrsquos said that tools of statistician are used in almost all fields ofcalculation

Be it research finance sports marketing sales health care or population countingIt is a crucial process behind How we make discoveries in science

Making decisions or claiming predictions It plays a crucial play in all situationsStats is involved everywhere from collection to interpretation From explanation to

presentationStatistics helps avoiding a wide variety of analytical traps By making sure that study follow

apt methods in all aspectsChallenging your own assumptions Or drawing data-based conclusions

Statistics is always there Making things crisp and clear

Donrsquot buy that lottery ticket Donrsquot wish for a fallen wicket

again

And if you donrsquot buy wish try andpredict

Why also bother living the life you claim tohave lived

It always seems impossible until it is done

If it makes you happyit doesnt have to make sense to others

When you cant find the sunshinebe the sunshine

Either you run the day or let the day run you

When you focus on the goodthe good gets better

It takes the same energy to worry as it doesto be positive so use your energy to thinkpositive and positive things will happen

The one thing that doesnt abide by majority rule is a persons conscience

Make happiness a priority and be gentle with yourself in the process

College the best start to unfold lifes beauty

Goodbye to the mistakes weve made remember the laughs weve shared

Will never forget these years

People are capable at anytime in their lives of doing what they dream of

May every sunrise bring you hopeMay every sunset bring you peace

If you dont believe in yourself thenno one is going to believe in you So

Believe in Yourself

Be who you are and say what you feelbecause those who mind donrsquot matter and

those who matter donrsquot mind

Success is liking yourself liking what you do and liking how you do it

Happiness is a by-product of an effort to make someone else happy

If you are not willing to risk the unusual you will have to settle for the ordinary

Always keep it clean simple and precise

Hustle until you no longer have to introduce yourself

Dream it Wish it Do it

There are no limits to what you can accomplish except the limits you place

on your own thinking

The greatness of humanity is not in being human but in being humane

You will be exactly as happy as you decide

One thing to learn from the sun is thatwhenever a cloud tries to hinder itslight it finds its own path to shine

Excellence is not achieved - it is aspired to and trekked towards The tougher the trek

the better the views

I think the day we figure out everythingabout our lives is the day we die

Finding your magic can be scary but owning it will be EUPHORIA

An approximate answer to the right problem is worth a good deal more than

an exact answer to an approximate problem

Our greatest weakness lies in giving up The most certain way to succeed is always to try just one more time

The aim is to live happily heal throughevery situation and learn everything new

with every step taken

Believe in progress not perfection

ALUMINI SPEAKSIts been a privilege to be the leading batch of the Department of StatisticsMata Sundri College None less than a roller coaster with every newchallenge we have rocked it on together With the amazing faculty it neverfelt like we needed the Seniors We have created our paths and wont letour juniors struggle for it always there to their rescue I have been a part of the statistics society for all the years and haveexperienced the best of it I see the society and the department growingwhich surely adds a feather to my capWishing for the best of it with all my heartI wish I could relive those best three years spent at the department witheveryone in my batch and the teachersGood luck

Sometimes the most beautiful things happen in the most unexpected waysI still canrsquot get over the fact that my 3 years-long and the beautiful journeycame to an end I never thought that I would make such beautiful bonds incollege be it with the teachers or my classmates Mata Sundri College will always have a special place in my heart and in mylife It is this place that made me realize my true potential I entered thecollege with almost no expectations But looking back at the time I nowfeel that those years were the most special and the most beautiful onesThe kind of love and support I received from all the teachers cannot bedescribed in words The personal connection which I still have with myteachers would be missing had I been in some other college I amextremely grateful to them It was because of them that I started loving mysubject Statistics All the hard work put in by my teachers and by myselfpaid off in the end Never did I imagine that I would become the Universitytopper I still feel that I am living in a dream

It is one of my greatest accomplishments Receiving the Medal from theHonrsquoble Education Minister Shri Ramesh Pokhriyal was a matter of pride Ifeel so happy seeing my parents and teachers being proud of me I surelyknow that whenever Irsquoll need some help in the future my teachers willalways be there to guide me The only regret is that we didnrsquot get a chance to greet the teachers and ourfellow classmates one last time due to the pandemic But keeping thataside I will always cherish my journey Thank you Mata Sundri College forthe amazing experience

The curtain lifts on Bryant Elementary Schools Spring Recorder Recital Ninety third-graders fumble with their instruments take a breath

and blow Their parents braced breathe too

as Hot Crossed Buns emerges a little scattershot -- the Normal Distribution brought to life

By Go Tell Aunt Rhodie the audience

is moved by their sheer pretty-goodness though one kid knocks her music to the floor

and another squeaks to demonstrate

the tail two standard deviations below the mean The curve implies

that somewhere on stage another kid

just played a note so sweet he might shatter Mrs Wedermeyers glasses And if

there are a mother and father who think

that child is theirs may they be forgiven even if the child shining in their eyes

is moving his fingers slightly out of rhythm

even if hes never led the bell curve in his life In consecutive measures of almost unison

its easy to believe these children are musicians

Their parents do so stirred by Ode to Joy they rise to their feet with the final phrase

clapping from the darkened auditorium

at once as one heroically like the parents theyve meant to be

Mubarak ho apko zindgi ka naya safar

Naya hai sheher nai hai dagar

Chut gaye kuch rishte purane

But donrsquot worry yaar mil jayenge naye diwane

Kuch tum jaise khuch tum se alag

So just smile and start a new life

Dosti yaari ko zara side mai rakh ke

Edhar gaur famiye janab

Course toh tumne acha chuna hai

Kuch socha hai ya ese hi liya hai

College mai admission jab hota hai

Toh andar khushi ke fuvare futne lagte hai

Lekin syllabus o dekh kar yeh bhi dagmagane lagte hai

Mana CP paas hai vahi maat ghumte rehna

Varna paper mai cafeacute ki menu sheet hi likhte rehna

Donrsquot take a chill pill coz yaha ki teachers hai thori strict

Just because they want you to be the best

Ab kya kare college ka har din mamuli nahi hota

Aur 9 se 4 sirf parai nahi hoti

Gumo firo esh karo but parna na bhulo

Mana es saal kuch zyada hi speed breakers hai

But the best part is hum sab bhi toh sath hai

PONDERINGAll of humanity is but a set of numbers You and I

are nothing more than a statisticJust think about any decision you had to take

recently No matter your choice you might findyourself ending up only as an infinitesimal

decimal in the final percentage of a statisticianrsquosdiscourse Let me give you an example pertinent

to the world we live in today Say yoursquore arepublican and have to decide whether to wear a

mask or not Naturally your political instinctmight warn you against it However you might

still be inclined to wear one because yoursquoregenuinely scared about what the ldquoliberalsrdquo have

to say about the SARS-COV-2 Now now letrsquos notgo off-topic here I know you might be wondering

what yoursquod do if you were in a Republicanrsquos shoesBut thatrsquos not the point

In the end it seldom matters whether you are arepublican or a liberal especially in situations

like these What matters in the end is if you didgo out without wearing that infuriating

smothering mask And if you contracted thewretched virus because of it If yes hard luck

Yoursquore nothing more than one of the 841 millionpeople who have it Thatrsquos all that people aroundthe world will see Not your gender not your ageand certainly not your political belief Of course

there will be studies about the correlation ofthese factors with the incidence rate of the

infections but thatrsquos another story altogether andnot one possibly as broad as the one we talk

aboutMoreover the correlation must not be

confused with causation Now perhaps thatrsquosa story for another day But think about it thisway whether you go to college or drop out of

high school whether you choose to live ordecide to die no matter the decision no

matter your inclination or choice whetheryou like it or not you will be nothing more

than a statisticIt might sound a bit gloomy to be honestWhen I first thought about it I felt almostinsignificant Like a tiny speck of dust in a

galaxy of stars Alas isnrsquot that all that we arethough

A pale blue dot in an ocean of stars Ourplanet one among millions or perhaps

billions of others All 78 billion of us fightingfor a place in the world knowing full well we

canrsquot all possibly have it It might makeanyone feel overwhelmed but therersquos

something about that that is so challenging itis almost inspiring We all know statistics andwe all know life But the true beauty of life lies

in the ability to defy statistics Only onequestion remains are you up for the

challenge

It wonrsquot be any exaggeration If itrsquos said that tools of statistician are used in almost all fields ofcalculation

Be it research finance sports marketing sales health care or population countingIt is a crucial process behind How we make discoveries in science

Making decisions or claiming predictions It plays a crucial play in all situationsStats is involved everywhere from collection to interpretation From explanation to

presentationStatistics helps avoiding a wide variety of analytical traps By making sure that study follow

apt methods in all aspectsChallenging your own assumptions Or drawing data-based conclusions

Statistics is always there Making things crisp and clear

It always seems impossible until it is done

If it makes you happyit doesnt have to make sense to others

When you cant find the sunshinebe the sunshine

Either you run the day or let the day run you

When you focus on the goodthe good gets better

It takes the same energy to worry as it doesto be positive so use your energy to thinkpositive and positive things will happen

The one thing that doesnt abide by majority rule is a persons conscience

Make happiness a priority and be gentle with yourself in the process

College the best start to unfold lifes beauty

Goodbye to the mistakes weve made remember the laughs weve shared

Will never forget these years

Set your heart free and let yourspirit fly break the barriers and you

You can regret a lot of things butcan never regret being kind

You are the artist of your lifedo not give the paintbrush to

someone else

You gotta find the good in them becausetheyll always find the good in you

Every revolution was first athought in one mans mind

There are no limits to what you canaccomplish except the limits you place

on your own thinking

Be someone no one can think youcould ever be

Always remember you are biggerthan your problems

makes all the difference

Thats What ~She

Life is what passes by while youare busy making other plans

Let us be grateful to people who make ushappy they are the charming gardeners who

make our souls blossom

Confidence is not substitute forclarity to be successful you need

clarity not confidence

Attitude is a little thing that makesa big difference

Be who you are and say what you feelbecause those who mind dont matterand those who matter dont mindrdquo

ALUMINI SPEAKSIts been a privilege to be the leading batch of the Department of StatisticsMata Sundri College None less than a roller coaster with every newchallenge we have rocked it on together With the amazing faculty it neverfelt like we needed the Seniors We have created our paths and wont letour juniors struggle for it always there to their rescue I have been a part of the statistics society for all the years and haveexperienced the best of it I see the society and the department growingwhich surely adds a feather to my capWishing for the best of it with all my heartI wish I could relive those best three years spent at the department witheveryone in my batch and the teachersGood luck

Sometimes the most beautiful things happen in the most unexpected waysI still canrsquot get over the fact that my 3 years-long and the beautiful journeycame to an end I never thought that I would make such beautiful bonds incollege be it with the teachers or my classmates Mata Sundri College will always have a special place in my heart and in mylife It is this place that made me realize my true potential I entered thecollege with almost no expectations But looking back at the time I nowfeel that those years were the most special and the most beautiful onesThe kind of love and support I received from all the teachers cannot bedescribed in words The personal connection which I still have with myteachers would be missing had I been in some other college I amextremely grateful to them It was because of them that I started loving mysubject Statistics All the hard work put in by my teachers and by myselfpaid off in the end Never did I imagine that I would become the Universitytopper I still feel that I am living in a dream

It is one of my greatest accomplishments Receiving the Medal from theHonrsquoble Education Minister Shri Ramesh Pokhriyal was a matter of pride Ifeel so happy seeing my parents and teachers being proud of me I surelyknow that whenever Irsquoll need some help in the future my teachers willalways be there to guide me The only regret is that we didnrsquot get a chance to greet the teachers and ourfellow classmates one last time due to the pandemic But keeping thataside I will always cherish my journey Thank you Mata Sundri College forthe amazing experience

The curtain lifts on Bryant Elementary Schools Spring Recorder Recital Ninety third-graders fumble with their instruments take a breath

and blow Their parents braced breathe too

as Hot Crossed Buns emerges a little scattershot -- the Normal Distribution brought to life

By Go Tell Aunt Rhodie the audience

is moved by their sheer pretty-goodness though one kid knocks her music to the floor

and another squeaks to demonstrate

the tail two standard deviations below the mean The curve implies

that somewhere on stage another kid

just played a note so sweet he might shatter Mrs Wedermeyers glasses And if

there are a mother and father who think

that child is theirs may they be forgiven even if the child shining in their eyes

is moving his fingers slightly out of rhythm

even if hes never led the bell curve in his life In consecutive measures of almost unison

its easy to believe these children are musicians

Their parents do so stirred by Ode to Joy they rise to their feet with the final phrase

clapping from the darkened auditorium

at once as one heroically like the parents theyve meant to be

EK NAYA SAFAR

Mubarak ho apko zindgi ka naya safar

Naya hai sheher nai hai dagar

Chut gaye kuch rishte purane

But donrsquot worry yaar mil jayenge naye diwane

Kuch tum jaise khuch tum se alag

So just smile and start a new life

Dosti yaari ko zara side mai rakh ke

Edhar gaur famiye janab

Course toh tumne acha chuna hai

Kuch socha hai ya ese hi liya hai

College mai admission jab hota hai

Toh andar khushi ke fuvare futne lagte hai

Lekin syllabus o dekh kar yeh bhi dagmagane lagte hai

Mana CP paas hai vahi maat ghumte rehna

Varna paper mai cafeacute ki menu sheet hi likhte rehna

Donrsquot take a chill pill coz yaha ki teachers hai thori strict

Just because they want you to be the best

Ab kya kare college ka har din mamuli nahi hota

Aur 9 se 4 sirf parai nahi hoti

Gumo firo esh karo but parna na bhulo

Mana es saal kuch zyada hi speed breakers hai

But the best part is hum sab bhi toh sath hai

PONDERINGAll of humanity is but a set of numbers You and I

are nothing more than a statisticJust think about any decision you had to take

recently No matter your choice you might findyourself ending up only as an infinitesimal

decimal in the final percentage of a statisticianrsquosdiscourse Let me give you an example pertinent

to the world we live in today Say yoursquore arepublican and have to decide whether to wear a

mask or not Naturally your political instinctmight warn you against it However you might

still be inclined to wear one because yoursquoregenuinely scared about what the ldquoliberalsrdquo have

to say about the SARS-COV-2 Now now letrsquos notgo off-topic here I know you might be wondering

what yoursquod do if you were in a Republicanrsquos shoesBut thatrsquos not the point

In the end it seldom matters whether you are arepublican or a liberal especially in situations

like these What matters in the end is if you didgo out without wearing that infuriating

smothering mask And if you contracted thewretched virus because of it If yes hard luck

Yoursquore nothing more than one of the 841 millionpeople who have it Thatrsquos all that people aroundthe world will see Not your gender not your ageand certainly not your political belief Of course

there will be studies about the correlation ofthese factors with the incidence rate of the

infections but thatrsquos another story altogether andnot one possibly as broad as the one we talk

aboutMoreover the correlation must not be

confused with causation Now perhaps thatrsquosa story for another day But think about it thisway whether you go to college or drop out of

high school whether you choose to live ordecide to die no matter the decision no

matter your inclination or choice whetheryou like it or not you will be nothing more

than a statisticIt might sound a bit gloomy to be honestWhen I first thought about it I felt almostinsignificant Like a tiny speck of dust in a

galaxy of stars Alas isnrsquot that all that we arethough

A pale blue dot in an ocean of stars Ourplanet one among millions or perhaps

billions of others All 78 billion of us fightingfor a place in the world knowing full well we

canrsquot all possibly have it It might makeanyone feel overwhelmed but therersquos

something about that that is so challenging itis almost inspiring We all know statistics andwe all know life But the true beauty of life lies

in the ability to defy statistics Only onequestion remains are you up for the

challenge

It wonrsquot be any exaggeration If itrsquos said that tools of statistician are used in almost all fields ofcalculation

Be it research finance sports marketing sales health care or population countingIt is a crucial process behind How we make discoveries in science

Making decisions or claiming predictions It plays a crucial play in all situationsStats is involved everywhere from collection to interpretation From explanation to

presentationStatistics helps avoiding a wide variety of analytical traps By making sure that study follow

apt methods in all aspectsChallenging your own assumptions Or drawing data-based conclusions

Statistics is always there Making things crisp and clear

Donrsquot buy that lottery ticket Donrsquot wish for a fallen wicket

again

And if you donrsquot buy wish try andpredict

Why also bother living the life you claim tohave lived

It always seems impossible until it is done

If it makes you happyit doesnt have to make sense to others

When you cant find the sunshinebe the sunshine

Either you run the day or let the day run you

When you focus on the goodthe good gets better

It takes the same energy to worry as it doesto be positive so use your energy to thinkpositive and positive things will happen

The one thing that doesnt abide by majority rule is a persons conscience

Make happiness a priority and be gentle with yourself in the process

College the best start to unfold lifes beauty

Goodbye to the mistakes weve made remember the laughs weve shared

Will never forget these years

People are capable at anytime in their lives of doing what they dream of

If you dont believe in yourself thenno one is going to believe in you So

Believe in Yourself

Be who you are and say what you feelbecause those who mind donrsquot matter and

those who matter donrsquot mind

Success is liking yourself liking what you do and liking how you do it

Happiness is a by-product of an effort to make someone else happy

If you are not willing to risk the unusual you will have to settle for the ordinary

Always keep it clean simple and precise

Hustle until you no longer have to introduce yourself

Dream it Wish it Do it

There are no limits to what you can accomplish except the limits you place

on your own thinking

Excellence is not achieved - it is aspired to and trekked towards The tougher the trek

Your energy introduces you evenbefore you speak

Your mistake dont define your character Itswhat you do after you make mistake that

makes all the difference

Thats What ~She

Life is what passes by while youare busy making other plans

Let us be grateful to people who make ushappy they are the charming gardeners who

make our souls blossom

Confidence is not substitute forclarity to be successful you need

clarity not confidence

Attitude is a little thing that makesa big difference

Be who you are and say what you feelbecause those who mind dont matterand those who matter dont mindrdquo

Ritika SundraniSuniti GuptaNo matter how tough may seem the climb

Keep moving Keep fighting Perseverance and patience go a long way Because for the sunrise even the longest

nights make way

All I want is to have the world dominatedby women

Because men will not leave their position sowhy will we demand equality

EK NAYA SAFAR

Mubarak ho apko zindgi ka naya safar

Naya hai sheher nai hai dagar

Chut gaye kuch rishte purane

But donrsquot worry yaar mil jayenge naye diwane

Kuch tum jaise khuch tum se alag

So just smile and start a new life

Dosti yaari ko zara side mai rakh ke

Edhar gaur famiye janab

Course toh tumne acha chuna hai

Kuch socha hai ya ese hi liya hai

College mai admission jab hota hai

Toh andar khushi ke fuvare futne lagte hai

Lekin syllabus o dekh kar yeh bhi dagmagane lagte hai

Mana CP paas hai vahi maat ghumte rehna

Varna paper mai cafeacute ki menu sheet hi likhte rehna

Donrsquot take a chill pill coz yaha ki teachers hai thori strict

Just because they want you to be the best

Ab kya kare college ka har din mamuli nahi hota

Aur 9 se 4 sirf parai nahi hoti

Gumo firo esh karo but parna na bhulo

Mana es saal kuch zyada hi speed breakers hai

But the best part is hum sab bhi toh sath hai

PONDERINGAll of humanity is but a set of numbers You and I

are nothing more than a statisticJust think about any decision you had to take

recently No matter your choice you might findyourself ending up only as an infinitesimal

decimal in the final percentage of a statisticianrsquosdiscourse Let me give you an example pertinent

to the world we live in today Say yoursquore arepublican and have to decide whether to wear a

mask or not Naturally your political instinctmight warn you against it However you might

still be inclined to wear one because yoursquoregenuinely scared about what the ldquoliberalsrdquo have

to say about the SARS-COV-2 Now now letrsquos notgo off-topic here I know you might be wondering

what yoursquod do if you were in a Republicanrsquos shoesBut thatrsquos not the point

In the end it seldom matters whether you are arepublican or a liberal especially in situations

like these What matters in the end is if you didgo out without wearing that infuriating

smothering mask And if you contracted thewretched virus because of it If yes hard luck

Yoursquore nothing more than one of the 841 millionpeople who have it Thatrsquos all that people aroundthe world will see Not your gender not your ageand certainly not your political belief Of course

there will be studies about the correlation ofthese factors with the incidence rate of the

infections but thatrsquos another story altogether andnot one possibly as broad as the one we talk

aboutMoreover the correlation must not be

confused with causation Now perhaps thatrsquosa story for another day But think about it thisway whether you go to college or drop out of

high school whether you choose to live ordecide to die no matter the decision no

matter your inclination or choice whetheryou like it or not you will be nothing more

than a statisticIt might sound a bit gloomy to be honestWhen I first thought about it I felt almostinsignificant Like a tiny speck of dust in a

galaxy of stars Alas isnrsquot that all that we arethough

A pale blue dot in an ocean of stars Ourplanet one among millions or perhaps

billions of others All 78 billion of us fightingfor a place in the world knowing full well we

canrsquot all possibly have it It might makeanyone feel overwhelmed but therersquos

something about that that is so challenging itis almost inspiring We all know statistics andwe all know life But the true beauty of life lies

in the ability to defy statistics Only onequestion remains are you up for the

challenge

By Muskan Hashim (1st Year)

It wonrsquot be any exaggeration If itrsquos said that tools of statistician are used in almost all fields ofcalculation

Be it research finance sports marketing sales health care or population countingIt is a crucial process behind How we make discoveries in science

Making decisions or claiming predictions It plays a crucial play in all situationsStats is involved everywhere from collection to interpretation From explanation to

presentationStatistics helps avoiding a wide variety of analytical traps By making sure that study follow

apt methods in all aspectsChallenging your own assumptions Or drawing data-based conclusions

Statistics is always there Making things crisp and clear

STATS STATS EVERYWHERE By Harshika Tyagi (3rd Year)

Donrsquot buy that lottery ticket Donrsquot wish for a fallen wicket

Donrsquot wish to ldquomake itrdquo in a dying world Donrsquot wish for either a boy or a girl

Donrsquot predict vivid sunshine or rain Donrsquot bother to cry or complain

Statistically speaking it may all be in vain If you didnrsquot make it the first time why try

again

And if you donrsquot buy wish try andpredict

Why also bother living the life you claim tohave lived

It always seems impossible until it is done

If it makes you happyit doesnt have to make sense to others

When you cant find the sunshinebe the sunshine

Either you run the day or let the day run you

When you focus on the goodthe good gets better

It takes the same energy to worry as it doesto be positive so use your energy to thinkpositive and positive things will happen

The one thing that doesnt abide by majority rule is a persons conscience

Make happiness a priority and be gentle with yourself in the process

College the best start to unfold lifes beauty

Goodbye to the mistakes weve made remember the laughs weve shared

Will never forget these years

May every sunrise bring you hopeMay every sunset bring you peace

If you dont believe in yourself thenno one is going to believe in you So

Believe in Yourself

Be who you are and say what you feelbecause those who mind donrsquot matter and

those who matter donrsquot mind

Success is liking yourself liking what you do and liking how you do it

Happiness is a by-product of an effort to make someone else happy

If you are not willing to risk the unusual you will have to settle for the ordinary

Always keep it clean simple and precise

Hustle until you no longer have to introduce yourself

Dream it Wish it Do it

There are no limits to what you can accomplish except the limits you place

on your own thinking

The greatness of humanity is not in being human but in being humane

You will be exactly as happy as you decide

One thing to learn from the sun is thatwhenever a cloud tries to hinder itslight it finds its own path to shine

Excellence is not achieved - it is aspired to and trekked towards The tougher the trek

the better the views

I think the day we figure out everythingabout our lives is the day we die

Finding your magic can be scary but owning it will be EUPHORIA

An approximate answer to the right problem is worth a good deal more than

an exact answer to an approximate problem

Our greatest weakness lies in giving up The most certain way to succeed is always to try just one more time

The aim is to live happily heal throughevery situation and learn everything new

PONDERINGAll of humanity is but a set of numbers You and I

are nothing more than a statisticJust think about any decision you had to take

recently No matter your choice you might findyourself ending up only as an infinitesimal

decimal in the final percentage of a statisticianrsquosdiscourse Let me give you an example pertinent

to the world we live in today Say yoursquore arepublican and have to decide whether to wear a

mask or not Naturally your political instinctmight warn you against it However you might

still be inclined to wear one because yoursquoregenuinely scared about what the ldquoliberalsrdquo have

to say about the SARS-COV-2 Now now letrsquos notgo off-topic here I know you might be wondering

what yoursquod do if you were in a Republicanrsquos shoesBut thatrsquos not the point

In the end it seldom matters whether you are arepublican or a liberal especially in situations

like these What matters in the end is if you didgo out without wearing that infuriating

smothering mask And if you contracted thewretched virus because of it If yes hard luck

Yoursquore nothing more than one of the 841 millionpeople who have it Thatrsquos all that people aroundthe world will see Not your gender not your ageand certainly not your political belief Of course

there will be studies about the correlation ofthese factors with the incidence rate of the

infections but thatrsquos another story altogether andnot one possibly as broad as the one we talk

aboutMoreover the correlation must not be

confused with causation Now perhaps thatrsquosa story for another day But think about it thisway whether you go to college or drop out of

high school whether you choose to live ordecide to die no matter the decision no

matter your inclination or choice whetheryou like it or not you will be nothing more

than a statisticIt might sound a bit gloomy to be honestWhen I first thought about it I felt almostinsignificant Like a tiny speck of dust in a

galaxy of stars Alas isnrsquot that all that we arethough

A pale blue dot in an ocean of stars Ourplanet one among millions or perhaps

billions of others All 78 billion of us fightingfor a place in the world knowing full well we

canrsquot all possibly have it It might makeanyone feel overwhelmed but therersquos

something about that that is so challenging itis almost inspiring We all know statistics andwe all know life But the true beauty of life lies

in the ability to defy statistics Only onequestion remains are you up for the

challenge

It wonrsquot be any exaggeration If itrsquos said that tools of statistician are used in almost all fields ofcalculation

Be it research finance sports marketing sales health care or population countingIt is a crucial process behind How we make discoveries in science

Making decisions or claiming predictions It plays a crucial play in all situationsStats is involved everywhere from collection to interpretation From explanation to

presentationStatistics helps avoiding a wide variety of analytical traps By making sure that study follow

apt methods in all aspectsChallenging your own assumptions Or drawing data-based conclusions

Statistics is always there Making things crisp and clear

Donrsquot buy that lottery ticket Donrsquot wish for a fallen wicket

Donrsquot wish to ldquomake itrdquo in a dying world Donrsquot wish for either a boy or a girl

Donrsquot predict vivid sunshine or rain Donrsquot bother to cry or complain

Statistically speaking it may all be in vain If you didnrsquot make it the first time why try

again

And if you donrsquot buy wish try andpredict

Why also bother living the life you claim tohave lived

It always seems impossible until it is done

If it makes you happyit doesnt have to make sense to others

When you cant find the sunshinebe the sunshine

Either you run the day or let the day run you

When you focus on the goodthe good gets better

It takes the same energy to worry as it doesto be positive so use your energy to thinkpositive and positive things will happen

The one thing that doesnt abide by majority rule is a persons conscience

Make happiness a priority and be gentle with yourself in the process

College the best start to unfold lifes beauty

Goodbye to the mistakes weve made remember the laughs weve shared

Will never forget these years

People are capable at anytime in their lives of doing what they dream of

May every sunrise bring you hopeMay every sunset bring you peace

If you dont believe in yourself thenno one is going to believe in you So

Believe in Yourself

Be who you are and say what you feelbecause those who mind donrsquot matter and

those who matter donrsquot mind

Success is liking yourself liking what you do and liking how you do it

Happiness is a by-product of an effort to make someone else happy

If you are not willing to risk the unusual you will have to settle for the ordinary

Always keep it clean simple and precise

Hustle until you no longer have to introduce yourself

Dream it Wish it Do it

There are no limits to what you can accomplish except the limits you place

on your own thinking

The greatness of humanity is not in being human but in being humane

You will be exactly as happy as you decide

Excellence is not achieved - it is aspired to and trekked towards The tougher the trek

Donrsquot buy that lottery ticket Donrsquot wish for a fallen wicket

Donrsquot wish to ldquomake itrdquo in a dying world Donrsquot wish for either a boy or a girl

And if you donrsquot buy wish try andpredict

Why also bother living the life you claim tohave lived

It always seems impossible until it is done

If it makes you happyit doesnt have to make sense to others

When you cant find the sunshinebe the sunshine

Either you run the day or let the day run you

When you focus on the goodthe good gets better

It takes the same energy to worry as it doesto be positive so use your energy to thinkpositive and positive things will happen

The one thing that doesnt abide by majority rule is a persons conscience

Make happiness a priority and be gentle with yourself in the process

College the best start to unfold lifes beauty

May every sunrise bring you hopeMay every sunset bring you peace

If you dont believe in yourself thenno one is going to believe in you So

Believe in Yourself

Be who you are and say what you feelbecause those who mind donrsquot matter and

those who matter donrsquot mind

Success is liking yourself liking what you do and liking how you do it

Happiness is a by-product of an effort to make someone else happy

If you are not willing to risk the unusual you will have to settle for the ordinary

Always keep it clean simple and precise

Hustle until you no longer have to introduce yourself

Dream it Wish it Do it

There are no limits to what you can accomplish except the limits you place

on your own thinking

The greatness of humanity is not in being human but in being humane

You will be exactly as happy as you decide

Excellence is not achieved - it is aspired to and trekked towards The tougher the trek

the better the views

I think the day we figure out everythingabout our lives is the day we die

Finding your magic can be scary but owning it will be EUPHORIA

An approximate answer to the right problem is worth a good deal more than

an exact answer to an approximate problem

The aim is to live happily heal throughevery situation and learn everything new

May every sunrise bring you hopeMay every sunset bring you peace

If you dont believe in yourself thenno one is going to believe in you So

Believe in Yourself

Be who you are and say what you feelbecause those who mind donrsquot matter and

those who matter donrsquot mind

Success is liking yourself liking what you do and liking how you do it

Happiness is a by-product of an effort to make someone else happy

If you are not willing to risk the unusual you will have to settle for the ordinary

Always keep it clean simple and precise

Hustle until you no longer have to introduce yourself

Dream it Wish it Do it

There are no limits to what you can accomplish except the limits you place

on your own thinking

The greatness of humanity is not in being human but in being humane

You will be exactly as happy as you decide

One thing to learn from the sun is thatwhenever a cloud tries to hinder itslight it finds its own path to shine

Excellence is not achieved - it is aspired to and trekked towards The tougher the trek

the better the views

I think the day we figure out everythingabout our lives is the day we die

Finding your magic can be scary but owning it will be EUPHORIA

An approximate answer to the right problem is worth a good deal more than

an exact answer to an approximate problem

Our greatest weakness lies in giving up The most certain way to succeed is always to try just one more time

The aim is to live happily heal throughevery situation and learn everything new

with every step taken

Believe in progress not perfection

It always seems impossible until it is done

If it makes you happyit doesnt have to make sense to others

When you cant find the sunshinebe the sunshine

Either you run the day or let the day run you

When you focus on the goodthe good gets better

It takes the same energy to worry as it doesto be positive so use your energy to thinkpositive and positive things will happen

The one thing that doesnt abide by majority rule is a persons conscience

Make happiness a priority and be gentle with yourself in the process

College the best start to unfold lifes beauty

Goodbye to the mistakes weve made remember the laughs weve shared

Will never forget these years

People are capable at anytime in their lives of doing what they dream of

It always seems impossible until it is done

If it makes you happyit doesnt have to make sense to others

When you cant find the sunshinebe the sunshine

Either you run the day or let the day run you

When you focus on the goodthe good gets better

It takes the same energy to worry as it doesto be positive so use your energy to thinkpositive and positive things will happen

The one thing that doesnt abide by majority rule is a persons conscience

Make happiness a priority and be gentle with yourself in the process

College the best start to unfold lifes beauty

Goodbye to the mistakes weve made remember the laughs weve shared

Will never forget these years

May every sunrise bring you hopeMay every sunset bring you peace

If you dont believe in yourself thenno one is going to believe in you So

Believe in Yourself

Be who you are and say what you feelbecause those who mind donrsquot matter and

those who matter donrsquot mind

Success is liking yourself liking what you do and liking how you do it

Happiness is a by-product of an effort to make someone else happy

If you are not willing to risk the unusual you will have to settle for the ordinary

Always keep it clean simple and precise

Hustle until you no longer have to introduce yourself

Dream it Wish it Do it

There are no limits to what you can accomplish except the limits you place

on your own thinking

The greatness of humanity is not in being human but in being humane

You will be exactly as happy as you decide

One thing to learn from the sun is thatwhenever a cloud tries to hinder itslight it finds its own path to shine

Excellence is not achieved - it is aspired to and trekked towards The tougher the trek

the better the views

I think the day we figure out everythingabout our lives is the day we die

Finding your magic can be scary but owning it will be EUPHORIA

An approximate answer to the right problem is worth a good deal more than

an exact answer to an approximate problem

Our greatest weakness lies in giving up The most certain way to succeed is always to try just one more time

The aim is to live happily heal throughevery situation and learn everything new

with every step taken

Believe in progress not perfection

Your time is limited so donrsquot waste it livingsomeone elsersquos life Donrsquot be trapped by

dogma ndash which is living with the results ofother peoplersquos thinking

I know that I will look back on these days as being the happiest of my life

Sometimes you will never know the value of a moment until it becomes a memory

Enjoyed college a lot it lasted almost as longas the lunch breaks

And thats a wrap on a degree where I acted like I knew what I was doing

The way to success holds a path of fight andIm sure to get it because look on the right rarr

They say the right hand is always powerful but so is my the one on the left larr

May every sunrise bring you hopeMay every sunset bring you peace

If you dont believe in yourself thenno one is going to believe in you So

Believe in Yourself

Be who you are and say what you feelbecause those who mind donrsquot matter and

those who matter donrsquot mind

Success is liking yourself liking what you do and liking how you do it

Happiness is a by-product of an effort to make someone else happy

If you are not willing to risk the unusual you will have to settle for the ordinary

Always keep it clean simple and precise

Hustle until you no longer have to introduce yourself

Dream it Wish it Do it

There are no limits to what you can accomplish except the limits you place

on your own thinking

The greatness of humanity is not in being human but in being humane

You will be exactly as happy as you decide

One thing to learn from the sun is thatwhenever a cloud tries to hinder itslight it finds its own path to shine

Excellence is not achieved - it is aspired to and trekked towards The tougher the trek

the better the views

I think the day we figure out everythingabout our lives is the day we die

Finding your magic can be scary but owning it will be EUPHORIA

An approximate answer to the right problem is worth a good deal more than

an exact answer to an approximate problem

Our greatest weakness lies in giving up The most certain way to succeed is always to try just one more time

The aim is to live happily heal throughevery situation and learn everything new

with every step taken

Believe in progress not perfection

It always seems impossible until it is done

If it makes you happyit doesnt have to make sense to others

When you cant find the sunshinebe the sunshine

Either you run the day or let the day run you

When you focus on the goodthe good gets better

It takes the same energy to worry as it doesto be positive so use your energy to thinkpositive and positive things will happen

The one thing that doesnt abide by majority rule is a persons conscience

Make happiness a priority and be gentle with yourself in the process

College the best start to unfold lifes beauty

Goodbye to the mistakes weve made remember the laughs weve shared

Will never forget these years

People are capable at anytime in their lives of doing what they dream of

productivity and replace it by degree ofpresence

memorableAlternative hypothesis College life is difficult and

stressful

Test Statistics Given the observations for threeyears and some crazy friends the p value of Hobeing true is found to be greater than alpha

For all alpha level of laughters and fun we failto reject null hypothesis

It always seems impossible until it is done

If it makes you happyit doesnt have to make sense to others

When you cant find the sunshinebe the sunshine

Either you run the day or let the day run you

When you focus on the goodthe good gets better

It takes the same energy to worry as it doesto be positive so use your energy to thinkpositive and positive things will happen

The one thing that doesnt abide by majority rule is a persons conscience

Make happiness a priority and be gentle with yourself in the process

College the best start to unfold lifes beauty

Goodbye to the mistakes weve made remember the laughs weve shared

Will never forget these years

People are capable at anytime in their lives of doing what they dream of

productivity and replace it by degree ofpresence

One thing to learn from the sun is thatwhenever a cloud tries to hinder itslight it finds its own path to shine

Excellence is not achieved - it is aspired to and trekked towards The tougher the trek

the better the views

I think the day we figure out everythingabout our lives is the day we die

Finding your magic can be scary but owning it will be EUPHORIA

An approximate answer to the right problem is worth a good deal more than

an exact answer to an approximate problem

Our greatest weakness lies in giving up The most certain way to succeed is always to try just one more time

The aim is to live happily heal throughevery situation and learn everything new

There are no limits to what you canaccomplish except the limits you place

on your own thinking

Be someone no one can think youcould ever be

Always remember you are biggerthan your problems

Be patient with yourself Nothingin nature blooms all year

Keep calm and be crazy Laugh love and liveit up because this is the oldest youve been

and the youngest youll ever be again

Life love and happiness I wanna experience it all

Not how long but how well youlived is the main thing

Either write something worth readingor do something worth writing

Believe you can and you arehalfway there

You start seeing the magic and beautyin others when itrsquos really in yourself

Im not great at advice can I interestyou with a sarcastic comment

Hope is the only bee that can makehoney without flowers

I now understand why all themovies were about high school

Live the life you love and lovethe life you live

And yet theres so much to be gratefulfor and so much love to give

Your life is a canvas makesure you paint a masterpiece

Absence is presence with a distance It is better to live your destiny imperfectlythan to live an imitation of somebody elses

life with perfection

You dont have to control yourthoughts You just have to stop letting

them control you

It always seems impossible until it is done

If it makes you happyit doesnt have to make sense to others

When you cant find the sunshinebe the sunshine

Either you run the day or let the day run you

When you focus on the goodthe good gets better

It takes the same energy to worry as it doesto be positive so use your energy to thinkpositive and positive things will happen

The one thing that doesnt abide by majority rule is a persons conscience

Make happiness a priority and be gentle with yourself in the process

College the best start to unfold lifes beauty

Goodbye to the mistakes weve made remember the laughs weve shared

Will never forget these years

Test Statistics Given the observations for threeyears and some crazy friends the p value of Hobeing true is found to be greater than alpha

For all alpha level of laughters and fun we failto reject null hypothesis

If you dont believe in yourself thenno one is going to believe in you So

Believe in Yourself

Be who you are and say what you feelbecause those who mind donrsquot matter and

those who matter donrsquot mind

Success is liking yourself liking what you do and liking how you do it

Happiness is a by-product of an effort to make someone else happy

If you are not willing to risk the unusual you will have to settle for the ordinary

Always keep it clean simple and precise

Hustle until you no longer have to introduce yourself

Dream it Wish it Do it

There are no limits to what you can accomplish except the limits you place

on your own thinking

The greatness of humanity is not in being human but in being humane

You will be exactly as happy as you decide

One thing to learn from the sun is thatwhenever a cloud tries to hinder itslight it finds its own path to shine

Excellence is not achieved - it is aspired to and trekked towards The tougher the trek

the better the views

I think the day we figure out everythingabout our lives is the day we die

Finding your magic can be scary but owning it will be EUPHORIA

An approximate answer to the right problem is worth a good deal more than

an exact answer to an approximate problem

Our greatest weakness lies in giving up The most certain way to succeed is always to try just one more time

The aim is to live happily heal throughevery situation and learn everything new

with every step taken

Believe in progress not perfection

Test Statistics Given the observations for threeyears and some crazy friends the p value of Hobeing true is found to be greater than alpha

For all alpha level of laughters and fun we failto reject null hypothesis

Conclusion Therefore we conclude that college life isamazing full of adventures with a lot of new things tolearn and can be made memorable with a few but real

friendsSo make friends and dont give up there is a lot more

you can achieve in your life ahead

Your time is limited so donrsquot waste it livingsomeone elsersquos life Donrsquot be trapped by

dogma ndash which is living with the results ofother peoplersquos thinking

I know that I will look back on these days as being the happiest of my life

Sometimes you will never know the value of a moment until it becomes a memory

Enjoyed college a lot it lasted almost as longas the lunch breaks

And thats a wrap on a degree where I acted like I knew what I was doing

May every sunrise bring you hopeMay every sunset bring you peace

If you dont believe in yourself thenno one is going to believe in you So

Believe in Yourself

Be who you are and say what you feelbecause those who mind donrsquot matter and

those who matter donrsquot mind

Success is liking yourself liking what you do and liking how you do it

Happiness is a by-product of an effort to make someone else happy

If you are not willing to risk the unusual you will have to settle for the ordinary

Always keep it clean simple and precise

Hustle until you no longer have to introduce yourself

Dream it Wish it Do it

There are no limits to what you can accomplish except the limits you place

on your own thinking

The greatness of humanity is not in being human but in being humane

You will be exactly as happy as you decide

One thing to learn from the sun is thatwhenever a cloud tries to hinder itslight it finds its own path to shine

Excellence is not achieved - it is aspired to and trekked towards The tougher the trek

the better the views

I think the day we figure out everythingabout our lives is the day we die

Finding your magic can be scary but owning it will be EUPHORIA

An approximate answer to the right problem is worth a good deal more than

an exact answer to an approximate problem

Our greatest weakness lies in giving up The most certain way to succeed is always to try just one more time

The aim is to live happily heal throughevery situation and learn everything new

with every step taken

Believe in progress not perfection

It always seems impossible until it is done

If it makes you happyit doesnt have to make sense to others

When you cant find the sunshinebe the sunshine

Either you run the day or let the day run you

When you focus on the goodthe good gets better

It takes the same energy to worry as it doesto be positive so use your energy to thinkpositive and positive things will happen

The one thing that doesnt abide by majority rule is a persons conscience

Make happiness a priority and be gentle with yourself in the process

College the best start to unfold lifes beauty

Goodbye to the mistakes weve made remember the laughs weve shared

Will never forget these years

People are capable at anytime in their lives of doing what they dream of

It always seems impossible until it is done

If it makes you happyit doesnt have to make sense to others

When you cant find the sunshinebe the sunshine

Either you run the day or let the day run you

When you focus on the goodthe good gets better

It takes the same energy to worry as it doesto be positive so use your energy to thinkpositive and positive things will happen

The one thing that doesnt abide by majority rule is a persons conscience

Make happiness a priority and be gentle with yourself in the process

College the best start to unfold lifes beauty

Goodbye to the mistakes weve made remember the laughs weve shared

Will never forget these years

People are capable at anytime in their lives of doing what they dream of

ALUMINI SPEAKSIts been a privilege to be the leading batch of the Department of StatisticsMata Sundri College None less than a roller coaster with every newchallenge we have rocked it on together With the amazing faculty it neverfelt like we needed the Seniors We have created our paths and wont letour juniors struggle for it always there to their rescue I have been a part of the statistics society for all the years and haveexperienced the best of it I see the society and the department growingwhich surely adds a feather to my capWishing for the best of it with all my heartI wish I could relive those best three years spent at the department witheveryone in my batch and the teachersGood luck

Sometimes the most beautiful things happen in the most unexpected waysI still canrsquot get over the fact that my 3 years-long and the beautiful journeycame to an end I never thought that I would make such beautiful bonds incollege be it with the teachers or my classmates Mata Sundri College will always have a special place in my heart and in mylife It is this place that made me realize my true potential I entered thecollege with almost no expectations But looking back at the time I nowfeel that those years were the most special and the most beautiful onesThe kind of love and support I received from all the teachers cannot bedescribed in words The personal connection which I still have with myteachers would be missing had I been in some other college I amextremely grateful to them It was because of them that I started loving mysubject Statistics All the hard work put in by my teachers and by myselfpaid off in the end Never did I imagine that I would become the Universitytopper I still feel that I am living in a dream

It is one of my greatest accomplishments Receiving the Medal from theHonrsquoble Education Minister Shri Ramesh Pokhriyal was a matter of pride Ifeel so happy seeing my parents and teachers being proud of me I surelyknow that whenever Irsquoll need some help in the future my teachers willalways be there to guide me The only regret is that we didnrsquot get a chance to greet the teachers and ourfellow classmates one last time due to the pandemic But keeping thataside I will always cherish my journey Thank you Mata Sundri College forthe amazing experience

It always seems impossible until it is done

If it makes you happyit doesnt have to make sense to others

When you cant find the sunshinebe the sunshine

Either you run the day or let the day run you

When you focus on the goodthe good gets better

It takes the same energy to worry as it doesto be positive so use your energy to thinkpositive and positive things will happen

The one thing that doesnt abide by majority rule is a persons conscience

Make happiness a priority and be gentle with yourself in the process

College the best start to unfold lifes beauty

Goodbye to the mistakes weve made remember the laughs weve shared

Will never forget these years

People are capable at anytime in their lives of doing what they dream of

productivity and replace it by degree ofpresence

Be who you are and say what you feel because in the end those who matter dont mind

and those who mind dont matter

Having charismatic and vibrant self is key tohappiness optimism and being systematic is

a way to success

When it rains look for rainbows when its dark look for stars

Believe you can and youre halfway there Fall in love with the process of becoming thevery best version of yourself

Rise above the storm and you will find sunshine

Do not change the path in front of your dreamswhatever happens do not break those dreams in yourmind You will find difficulties on every step but do

not leave the ground just to choose the stars

If people are trying to pull you down then you arealready better than them Just focus on your energies and

May every sunrise bring you hopeMay every sunset bring you peace

If you dont believe in yourself thenno one is going to believe in you So

Believe in Yourself

Be who you are and say what you feelbecause those who mind donrsquot matter and

those who matter donrsquot mind

Success is liking yourself liking what you do and liking how you do it

Happiness is a by-product of an effort to make someone else happy

If you are not willing to risk the unusual you will have to settle for the ordinary

Always keep it clean simple and precise

Hustle until you no longer have to introduce yourself

Dream it Wish it Do it

There are no limits to what you can accomplish except the limits you place

on your own thinking

The greatness of humanity is not in being human but in being humane

You will be exactly as happy as you decide

One thing to learn from the sun is thatwhenever a cloud tries to hinder itslight it finds its own path to shine

Excellence is not achieved - it is aspired to and trekked towards The tougher the trek

the better the views

I think the day we figure out everythingabout our lives is the day we die

Finding your magic can be scary but owning it will be EUPHORIA

An approximate answer to the right problem is worth a good deal more than

an exact answer to an approximate problem

Our greatest weakness lies in giving up The most certain way to succeed is always to try just one more time

The aim is to live happily heal throughevery situation and learn everything new

It always seems impossible until it is done

If it makes you happyit doesnt have to make sense to others

When you cant find the sunshinebe the sunshine

Either you run the day or let the day run you

When you focus on the goodthe good gets better

It takes the same energy to worry as it doesto be positive so use your energy to thinkpositive and positive things will happen

The one thing that doesnt abide by majority rule is a persons conscience

Make happiness a priority and be gentle with yourself in the process

College the best start to unfold lifes beauty

Goodbye to the mistakes weve made remember the laughs weve shared

Will never forget these years

People are capable at anytime in their lives of doing what they dream of

productivity and replace it by degree ofpresence

a way to success

When it rains look for rainbows when its dark look for stars

Rise above the storm and you will find sunshine

Do not change the path in front of your dreamswhatever happens do not break those dreams in yourmind You will find difficulties on every step but do

May every sunrise bring you hopeMay every sunset bring you peace

If you dont believe in yourself thenno one is going to believe in you So

Believe in Yourself

Be who you are and say what you feelbecause those who mind donrsquot matter and

those who matter donrsquot mind

Success is liking yourself liking what you do and liking how you do it

Happiness is a by-product of an effort to make someone else happy

If you are not willing to risk the unusual you will have to settle for the ordinary

Always keep it clean simple and precise

Hustle until you no longer have to introduce yourself

Dream it Wish it Do it

There are no limits to what you can accomplish except the limits you place

on your own thinking

The greatness of humanity is not in being human but in being humane

You will be exactly as happy as you decide

One thing to learn from the sun is thatwhenever a cloud tries to hinder itslight it finds its own path to shine

Excellence is not achieved - it is aspired to and trekked towards The tougher the trek

the better the views

I think the day we figure out everythingabout our lives is the day we die

Finding your magic can be scary but owning it will be EUPHORIA

An approximate answer to the right problem is worth a good deal more than

an exact answer to an approximate problem

Our greatest weakness lies in giving up The most certain way to succeed is always to try just one more time

The aim is to live happily heal throughevery situation and learn everything new

Conquer yourself not the world once you succeed in doing it the world will be all yours

Be who you are and say what you feel because in the end those who matter dont mind

and those who mind dont matter

Having charismatic and vibrant self is key tohappiness optimism and being systematic is

a way to success

When it rains look for rainbows when its dark look for stars

Believe you can and youre halfway there Fall in love with the process of becoming thevery best version of yourself

Rise above the storm and you will find sunshine

Do not change the path in front of your dreamswhatever happens do not break those dreams in yourmind You will find difficulties on every step but do

not leave the ground just to choose the stars

If people are trying to pull you down then you arealready better than them Just focus on your energies and

keep doing your best You will find happiness ) One more thing IF YOU DONT BETYOU CANT

WIN

Umang Singhal

Experiment College lifeNull hypothesis College life is amazing and

memorableAlternative hypothesis College life is difficult and

stressful

Test Statistics Given the observations for threeyears and some crazy friends the p value of Hobeing true is found to be greater than alpha

For all alpha level of laughters and fun we failto reject null hypothesis

Conclusion Therefore we conclude that college life isamazing full of adventures with a lot of new things tolearn and can be made memorable with a few but real

friendsSo make friends and dont give up there is a lot more

you can achieve in your life ahead

May every sunrise bring you hopeMay every sunset bring you peace

If you dont believe in yourself thenno one is going to believe in you So

Believe in Yourself

Be who you are and say what you feelbecause those who mind donrsquot matter and

those who matter donrsquot mind

Success is liking yourself liking what you do and liking how you do it

Happiness is a by-product of an effort to make someone else happy

If you are not willing to risk the unusual you will have to settle for the ordinary

Always keep it clean simple and precise

Hustle until you no longer have to introduce yourself

Dream it Wish it Do it

There are no limits to what you can accomplish except the limits you place

on your own thinking

The greatness of humanity is not in being human but in being humane

You will be exactly as happy as you decide

One thing to learn from the sun is thatwhenever a cloud tries to hinder itslight it finds its own path to shine

Excellence is not achieved - it is aspired to and trekked towards The tougher the trek

the better the views

I think the day we figure out everythingabout our lives is the day we die

Finding your magic can be scary but owning it will be EUPHORIA

An approximate answer to the right problem is worth a good deal more than

an exact answer to an approximate problem

Our greatest weakness lies in giving up The most certain way to succeed is always to try just one more time

The aim is to live happily heal throughevery situation and learn everything new

with every step taken

Believe in progress not perfection

Every moment is a fresh beginning

Small steps in the right direction can turn out to be the biggest steps of your life

Aayushi Bhawna Sharma

May every sunrise bring you hopeMay every sunset bring you peace

If you dont believe in yourself thenno one is going to believe in you So

Believe in Yourself

Be who you are and say what you feelbecause those who mind donrsquot matter and

those who matter donrsquot mind

Success is liking yourself liking what you do and liking how you do it

Happiness is a by-product of an effort to make someone else happy

If you are not willing to risk the unusual you will have to settle for the ordinary

Always keep it clean simple and precise

Hustle until you no longer have to introduce yourself

Dream it Wish it Do it

There are no limits to what you can accomplish except the limits you place

on your own thinking

The greatness of humanity is not in being human but in being humane

You will be exactly as happy as you decide

One thing to learn from the sun is thatwhenever a cloud tries to hinder itslight it finds its own path to shine

Excellence is not achieved - it is aspired to and trekked towards The tougher the trek

the better the views

I think the day we figure out everythingabout our lives is the day we die

Finding your magic can be scary but owning it will be EUPHORIA

An approximate answer to the right problem is worth a good deal more than

an exact answer to an approximate problem

Our greatest weakness lies in giving up The most certain way to succeed is always to try just one more time

The aim is to live happily heal throughevery situation and learn everything new

with every step taken

Believe in progress not perfection

Shreya WahiAnjali Upahyay

Every moment is a fresh beginning

Small steps in the right direction can turn out to be the biggest steps of your life

Payal Swathy SajeevIf you have only one smile in you

give it to the people you love

If you are working on something that youreally care about you donrsquot have to be pushed

Set your heart free and let yourspirit fly break the barriers and you

shall soar high

You can regret a lot of things butcan never regret being kind

You are the artist of your lifedo not give the paintbrush to

someone else

You gotta find the good in them becausetheyll always find the good in you

Every revolution was first athought in one mans mind

There are no limits to what you canaccomplish except the limits you place

on your own thinking

Be someone no one can think youcould ever be

Always remember you are biggerthan your problems

All the miracles in your life will all becreated by you

Life love and happiness I wanna experience it all

Believe you can and you arehalfway there

You start seeing the magic and beautyin others when itrsquos really in yourself

Hope is the only bee that can makehoney without flowers

Live the life you love and lovethe life you live

makes all the difference

Let us be grateful to people who make ushappy they are the charming gardeners who

make our souls blossom

Confidence is not substitute forclarity to be successful you need

ALUMINI SPEAKSIts been a privilege to be the leading batch of the Department of StatisticsMata Sundri College None less than a roller coaster with every newchallenge we have rocked it on together With the amazing faculty it neverfelt like we needed the Seniors We have created our paths and wont letour juniors struggle for it always there to their rescue I have been a part of the statistics society for all the years and haveexperienced the best of it I see the society and the department growingwhich surely adds a feather to my capWishing for the best of it with all my heartI wish I could relive those best three years spent at the department witheveryone in my batch and the teachersGood luck

Sometimes the most beautiful things happen in the most unexpected waysI still canrsquot get over the fact that my 3 years-long and the beautiful journeycame to an end I never thought that I would make such beautiful bonds incollege be it with the teachers or my classmates Mata Sundri College will always have a special place in my heart and in mylife It is this place that made me realize my true potential I entered thecollege with almost no expectations But looking back at the time I nowfeel that those years were the most special and the most beautiful onesThe kind of love and support I received from all the teachers cannot bedescribed in words The personal connection which I still have with myteachers would be missing had I been in some other college I amextremely grateful to them It was because of them that I started loving mysubject Statistics All the hard work put in by my teachers and by myselfpaid off in the end Never did I imagine that I would become the Universitytopper I still feel that I am living in a dream

It is one of my greatest accomplishments Receiving the Medal from theHonrsquoble Education Minister Shri Ramesh Pokhriyal was a matter of pride Ifeel so happy seeing my parents and teachers being proud of me I surelyknow that whenever Irsquoll need some help in the future my teachers willalways be there to guide me The only regret is that we didnrsquot get a chance to greet the teachers and ourfellow classmates one last time due to the pandemic But keeping thataside I will always cherish my journey Thank you Mata Sundri College forthe amazing experience
