Weekly Summary
This week I completed the initial manuscript documenting the StickForStats platform. The document describes the current implementation (5 statistical modules and 3 analysis engines) and outlines the development roadmap. The platform demonstrates validated statistical accuracy when compared to established packages like R and SciPy.
Note to PI: The manuscript documenting the StickForStats platform is ready for your review. The current implementation includes 5 working statistical modules with validated accuracy comparable to established packages. I would appreciate your guidance on next steps and potential publication venues.
