COMPUTER AND INFORMATION TECHNOLOGIES FOR PLANNING EXPERIMENTS

Abstract

Solving tasks of analysis and research of economic, production and management processes in transport is based on the use of the latest computer technologies (mathematical and statistical packages, electronic spreadsheets, etc.). Recently, there has been an increased interest in statistical analysis methods. In this work, the mathematical package Mathcad was chosen as a tool for probabilistic and statistical calculations. The choice of Mathcad is due to the fact that it is a powerful and universal computer mathematics system designed for mathematical calculations. The simplicity of the Mathcad interface, a wide set of tools for computer implementation of numerical methods for solving mathematical problems, high-quality computer graphics, the ability to record formulas in their natural form have made it one of the popular tools for mathematical calculations. An important component of Mathcad is the programming system, which has a language close to traditional professional programming languages, which significantly expands Mathcad's computing capabilities. The advantage of Mathcad is its openness to adding new algorithms, user functions and programs. The work combines both theoretical and computer technologies of calculations from the numerical implementation of mathematical models of the proposed tasks. This gives an opportunity to deepen the knowledge of the theory of statistical analysis, to develop skills in solving problems according to the given computer algorithms, to expand the idea of the areas of application of statistical analysis methods for solving practical problems in the field of economics, production and management.
