StatsBasejl

StatsBase.jl is a Julia package that provides a collection of basic statistical functions and tools for data analysis. It is a fundamental building block for many higher-level statistical packages within the Julia ecosystem. The package offers functionality for tasks such as calculating descriptive statistics, generating random samples, and performing basic statistical tests.

Key features of StatsBase.jl include functions for computing mean, median, variance, standard deviation, and quantiles. It also provides tools for working with categorical data, including functions for counting occurrences and calculating frequencies. The package includes support for various probability distributions and allows users to draw random samples from them. Furthermore, StatsBase.jl offers implementations of common statistical tests like the t-test and chi-squared test, enabling basic hypothesis testing.

The design of StatsBase.jl emphasizes performance and flexibility, making it suitable for both exploratory data analysis and more computationally intensive statistical modeling. Its integration with other Julia packages, such as DataFrames.jl and Distributions.jl, allows for seamless workflows in statistical computing. The package is actively developed and maintained by the Julia community, ensuring its continued relevance and improvement.
