I’m a mathematician, but I managed to avoid almost all education about statistics, and I have found that statistics resources are often catered to a non-mathematician audience. So, to crystalize my own understanding (and in case it helps someone else), I wanted to write up a short introduction to statistics, focusing on “what do they do and why”, written to assume a familiarity with math (calculus and perhaps some measure theory).
