Abstract: Abstract In this final chapter we demonstrate some of the under-appreciated non-parametric tests. These are the cousins (not siblings) of the parametric ones. For example, if your dataset does not meet the assumptions for the t-test (parametric), then Mann-Whitney test (non-parametric) in this section can be an alternative for you. Similarly, if you want to check if BMW, Ferrari, and Mercedes F1 cars are different speed-wise, you typically use ANOVA (parametric) when the speed data is normally distributed (because there are three groups to compare). You can also Kruskal-Wallis test if the data is non-normal. We also walk you through the non-parametric tests of correlation and the rarely used but very helpful Jonckheere-Terpstra test.
