Title Data analysis for physical scientists: Featuring Excel Author(s) Les Kirkup Edition 2nd. Publication Cambridge, Cambridge University Press, 2012. Description xv, 510p. Abstract Note The ability to summarise data, compare models and apply computer-based analysis tools are vital skills necessary for studying and working in the physical sciences. This textbook supports undergraduate students as they develop and enhance these skills. Introducing data analysis techniques, this textbook pays particular attention to the internationally recognised guidelines for calculating and expressing measurement uncertainty. This new edition has been revised to incorporate Excel 2010. It also provides a practical approach to fitting models to data using non-linear least squares, a powerful technique which can be applied to many types of model. Worked examples using actual experimental data help students understand how the calculations apply to real situations. Over 200 in-text exercises and end-of-chapter problems give students the opportunity to use the techniques themselves and gain confidence in applying them. Answers to the exercises and problems are given at the end of the book. ISBN,Price 9780521883726 : UKP 40.00(HB) Classification 53:681.324EXCEL Keyword(s) 1. DATA ANALYSIS TECHNIQUES 2. EBOOK 3.
