Fantasy premier league "fantasies" | How does VIP hospitality for two 2019/2020 Premier League matches sound? You stand a chance of winning that if you win the Fantasy premier league competition.

Game,set and who's match? | The hardest bit of predicting results for games is discounting for luck. Luck probably has the least impact on the game of tennis and one can rely on talent to win the game, unlike other sports such as soccer where you are only as good as your team.

Mental health data exploration | There is an increase in cases of mental illness on a global scale. Mental health problems are slowly becoming one of the top contributors to deaths across the world. Tech companies are rapidly growing in number and size and this means there is more pressure on their workers to perform. This pressure could have negative implications on a few individuals and before they realize could lead to mental illness. In this analysis, I look at mental health survey data of workers across the globe to determine if the tech companies are doing enough to ensure the mental well-being of their employees. | Dec 2017 | |
Blackbox | The Bayesian vs Frequentist approach is more of a philosophical debate which we will not delve into. This package attempts at breaking down the understanding and the underlying assumptions of the 2 approaches and how they compare. The package will run a significance analysis using both approaches based on data provided by the user, compare credible and confidence intervals. | Apr 2018 | |
