Small Diabetes Study

In this assignment, we will work with a small dataset of diabetes patients taken from here.

	AGE	SEX	BMI	BP	S1	S2	S3	S4	S5	S6	Y
0	59	2	32.1	101.	157	93.2	38.0	4.	4.8598	87	151
1	48	1	21.6	87.0	183	103.2	70.	3.	3.8918	69	75
2	72	2	30.5	93.0	156	93.6	41.0	4.0	4.	85	141

Instructions

• Open the assignment notebook in a jupyter notebook environment
• Complete all tasks listed in the notebook, namely:
  • Compute mean values and variance for all values
  • Plot boxplots for BMI, BP and Y depending on gender
  • What is the the distribution of Age, Sex, BMI and Y variables?
  • Test the correlation between different variables and disease progression (Y)
  • Test the hypothesis that the degree of diabetes progression is different between men and women
