Parametric.
Parametric statistical tests assume that your data are normally distributed (follow a classic bell-shaped curve). An example of a parametric statistical test is the Student's t-test.Non-parametric tests make no such assumption. An example of a non-parametric statistical test is the Sign Test.
Parametric tests assume that your data are normally distributed (i.e. follow a classic bell-shaped "Gaussian" curve). Non-parametric tests make no assumption about the shape of the distribution.
If the distribution is parametric then yes.
1. A nonparametric statistic has no inference 2. A nonparametric statistic has no standard error 3. A nonparametric statistic is an element in a base population (universe of possibilities) where every possible event in the population is known and can be characterized * * * * * That is utter rubbish and a totally irresponsible answer. In parametric statistics, the variable of interest is distributed according to some distribution that is determined by a small number of parameters. In non-parametric statistics there is no underlying parametric distribution. With non-parametric data you can compare between two (or more) possible distributions (goodness-of-fit), test for correlation between variables. Some test, such as the Student's t, chi-square are applicable for parametric as well as non-parametric statistics. I have, therefore, no idea where the previous answerer got his/her information from!
Parametric.
Parametric for one set?! Yeah

Binomial is a non- parametric test. Since this binomial test of significance does not involve any parameter and therefore is non parametric in nature, the assumption that is made about the distribution in the parametric test is therefore not assumed in the binomial test of significance. In the binomial test of significance, it is assumed that the sample that has been drawn from some population is done by the process of random sampling. The sample on which the binomial test of significance is conducted by the researcher is therefore a random sample.

yes
There are several types of hypothesis testing, primarily categorized into two main types: parametric and non-parametric tests. Parametric tests, such as t-tests and ANOVA, assume that the data follows a specific distribution (usually normal). Non-parametric tests, like the Mann-Whitney U test or the Kruskal-Wallis test, do not rely on these assumptions and are used when the data doesn't meet the criteria for parametric testing. Additionally, hypothesis tests can be classified as one-tailed or two-tailed, depending on whether the hypothesis specifies a direction of the effect or not.
The Kruskal-Wallis test should be used when you have three or more independent groups and want to compare the medians of non-normally distributed data. It is a non-parametric alternative to the parametric ANOVA test and can be applied when the assumptions for ANOVA, such as normality and homogeneity of variances, are violated. The Kruskal-Wallis test is particularly useful when working with ordinal or skewed interval/ratio data.
log 10 or square root your non parametric values
