Statistical functions (scipy.stats)

This module contains a large number of probability distributions, summary and frequency statistics, correlation functions and statistical tests, masked statistics, kernel density estimation, quasi-Monte Carlo functionality, and more.

Statistics is a very large area, and there are topics that are out of scope for SciPy and are covered by other packages. Some of the most important ones are:

• statsmodels: regression, linear models, time series analysis, extensions to topics also covered by scipy.stats.

• Pandas: tabular data, time series functionality, interfaces to other statistical languages.

• PyMC: Bayesian statistical modeling, probabilistic machine learning.

• scikit-learn: classification, regression, model selection.

• Seaborn: statistical data visualization.

• rpy2: Python to R bridge.

Probability distributions

rv_continuous([momtype, a, b, xtol, ...])	A generic continuous random variable class meant for subclassing.
rv_discrete([a, b, name, badvalue, ...])	A generic discrete random variable class meant for subclassing.
