The course introduces important areas of statistical data processing, such as generating random numbers, simulation and some methods of computational statistics. In addition, the course gives knowledge of solving statistical numerical problems (e.g. calculation of test statistics, simulation problems, etc.) by means of some appropriate programming language (e.g. APL).
