Abstract

This article includes different tests to analyze variables which are not able to be treated by parametrics techniques. These tests do not use the parameters: sample size, mean and standard deviation, so they are called non parametrics tests. We introduce the concept of Chi-square to test the goodness of fit to the Gauss curve. Afterwards non parametric tests for statistical analysis are illustrated in order to compare two or more groups in related or independent samples.
