In Mathematics‚ a periodic function is a function that repeats its values in regular intervals or periods. Periodic functions are used throughout science to describe oscillations‚ waves‚ and other phenomena that exhibit periodicity. Periodic functions are those that repeat on a set interval. All trigonometric functions are periodic. They are useful because one can determine the value of the function anywhere in the domain. If a function is periodic‚ then there is some value n for which

Descriptive Statistics is used when describing certain aspects of an immediate group within the population. For example‚ we may want to describe a math class and compare it to a class of science. Things that we may want to use for comparison would be age‚ gender‚ and even math skills. Descriptive statistics would allow us to analyze all those different areas and provide a comparison to view similarities‚ differences and ratios. Before any study is to be observed certain factors would have to be ascertained
