The paradoxes of statistics and “We are the Data.”
Coding Girls alights at the “Luigi Vanvitelli” University of Campania on May 8 with a hackathon addressing data science, a key subject for the understanding and analysis of contemporary phenomena.
The initiative, entitled “Paradoxes in Statistics and We are the Data,” was launched for the first edition at the University of Milan and then also selected by other universities participating in Coding Girls. Statistics is not just a subject. It’s a key to understand the reality around us. The analysis of data allowed the students, helped by qualified coaches, professors, and university students, to understand how numbers can influence crucial decisions in any sector.
