## What is StatsSims?

StatsPL Sims is a collection of easy-to-use, interactive simulations to explore statistics. StatsPL Sims was developed for College students taking an Intro to Stats (Stats 101) course, but is also suitable for high school students taking statistics. 

The following simulations are currently included: 

-Simple Random Sampling
-Frequency Tables vs. Histograms
-Histogram Explorer
-Central Limit Theorem
-Dice Roller
-Confidence Intervals
-Regression Line Game
-Regression Line Explorer
-Correlation Coefficient (R)
-Normal Distribution
-Binomial Distribution
-Chi Square Distribution
-F Distribution
-T Distribution

Over the next months, we will add more simulations on additional topics, such as: 

-One-sample t-test
-Two-Sample t-test

## Key features

### 1/5 — Hardly functioning

*2023-07-15*

I don’t know who rated this at a 5 but that isn’t accurate. You cannot exit the app without a hack. And the text appears at about a 3 point size

### 5/5 — Best Statistics Apps for mobile devices

*2016-05-12*

Stats Sims is a collection of simulations that are the best mobile sims available. I teach statistics courses and love to use these simulations to help students make connections between key ideas in statistics. Highly recommended!
