Why inferential statistics is not required in census?
Inferential statistics is not required in a census because a census aims to collect data from every individual in a population, leaving no room for sampling error or uncertainty. The goal of a census is to provide an accurate count or measurement of a specific characteristic within a population, making the need for statistical inference unnecessary. In contrast, inferential statistics is used when data is collected from a sample of a population, and the goal is to make predictions or inferences about the larger population based on that sample.
