Algebra and Trigonometry
Jay Abramson · OpenStax
Algebra is the study of mathematical symbols and the rules for manipulating these symbols. It is a unifying thread of almost all of mathematics. Elementary algebra is generally considered to be essential for any study of mathematics, science, or engineering, as well as such applications as medicine and economics. Elementary algebra differs from arithmetic in the use of abstractions, such as using letters to stand for numbers that are either unknown or allowed to take on many values.

Mike’s Biostatistics Book
Michael R Dohm · Chaminade University
The lecture notes are written from my perspective on what matters in a semester-long, first course in Biostatistics: concepts, context and practical advice along with a generous introduction to general linear models. The focus is on applied statistics with reference to other data science skill sets as needed. Concepts are illustrated by examples and multiple choice questions to “test” reader comprehension.
