STA 210: Regression Analysis

STA 210 is an applied introduction to regression analysis and multivariate thinking, emphasizing linear and logistic regression. We will learn the fundamentals of these methods, gain experience analyzing real-world (and often messy!) data, and learn how to communicate our statistical findings to others. At all times we will utilize modern computing tools and reproducible workflows. Importantly, the emphasis of STA 210 is on applied data analysis and mathematical intuition rather than mathematical theory.

In the second volume of this work, Gauss details the method of least squares, which he had previously used to accurately predict the orbit of Ceres, whose orbit had been "lost" when its apparent position vanished in the glare of the sun.
