start here, before the numbered modules
A start-here primer that teaches the spreadsheet and basic-statistics skills every scout needs before collecting or analyzing FRC match data. You will learn how a spreadsheet actually works, how to summarize numbers with averages and spread, and how to turn those summaries into smart alliance and pick-list decisions. No prior experience required.
Data Foundations: Spreadsheets and Statistics is the prerequisite module of the Scouting & Strategy guide. It is the ground the 7 numbered modules after it assume you already have, and Scouting Fundamentals follows it. It holds 3 of the guide's lessons.
