Synopsis:

The purpose of this book is to provide an introduction to the concepts of statistical analysis of data for students at the undergraduate and graduate level, and to provide tools for data reduction and error analysis commonly required in the physical sciences. The presentation is developed from a practical point of view, including enough derivation to justify the results, but emphasizing methods of handling data more than theory. The text provides a variety of numerical and graphical techniques. Computer programs that support these techniques will be available on an accompanying website in both Fortran and C++.

From the Publisher: Excellent reference book for students and researchers alike.
Third Edition includes expanded sets of exercises and examples giving students a better opportunity to practice and eventually helping students to master the information presented.
Accompanying the Third Edition is a website that contains complete computer programs and routines available in both Fortran and C++. The web-based computer programs will allow students and researchers to easily run routines that are described in the text.
New Appendix on Calculus! For those students who may have forgotten Calculus, those students will be able to easily refresh their skills with the new appendix on calculus.
