What is PSDA?
Probability is the study of chance and is a very fundamental subject that we apply in everyday living, while statistics is more concerned with how we handle data using different analysis techniques and collection methods. (Source)
Our Project
"UTM Student's Choice of Telecommunication Services"
My team have conducted a survey among UTM students to study on their choice of telecommunication services. Based on the results from the survey, we analyzed and summarized the data into graphical or tabular presentation. The data presentation process was done by using R software, which really helps us visualized the data. We hope from these analysis can help students determine the right service for them.
Below are the files for the dataset, R script, and report for our project.

Reflection on Project 1
This recent project that my team had done surely taught me a lot of things, not just regarding this course. For the record, this is my first experience in conducting a survey that requires detailed analysis. When the task were given, we had been told that we would have to gather data to fulfill our project in anyways, and use a software to analyse our data, specifically R. So, I thought it would be an easy task since I have used to make survey question and plotting graph in Excel. But, it doesn't work like that. We have to think of questions to collect different scales of data, such as nominal, ordinal, interval and ratio. We would also need to consider that the data can or cannot be transform into the desired tabular presentation. Failing this may lead to huge problem during the analysis. Next, we would have to learn the R language to transform our data. It is a bit complex since we rarely use the software but with determination, nothing is impossible. So as you can see, this project has taught me the importance of good strategy, giving ideas, communication and determination besides the knowledge that we normally gain during the lecture.
