bookChallenge: Hypothesis Testing with Sports Data

Task

Swipe to start coding

In this challenge, you will apply hypothesis testing to compare the performance of two sports teams using their players' scores. This builds on your understanding of hypothesis testing from the previous chapter.

  • Perform an independent t-test using scipy.stats.ttest_ind on the two groups of scores.
  • Return the t-statistic, p-value, and a string interpretation of the result.
  • If the p-value is less than 0.05, the interpretation should state that there is a statistically significant difference between the two teams' scores.
  • If the p-value is 0.05 or greater, the interpretation should state that there is no statistically significant difference between the two teams' scores.
