Probability theory plays a critical role in the development of statistical theory. Statistics is a branch of applied mathematics which includes planning, summarizing, and interpreting uncertain observations. We describe our knowledge (and ignorance) mathematically and attempt to learn more from whatever we can observe. This requires us to
In some forms of descriptive statistics, notably [data mining]? the second and third steps become so prominent that the first step (planning) appears to recede in importance. In these disciplines, the data is often collected outside the control of the person doing the analysis, and the result of the analysis may be more an operational model than a consensus report about the world.
