Statistics is the study of the collection,
organization, analysis, interpretation and presentation of data. It deals with
all aspects of data, including the planning of data collection in terms of the
design of surveys and experiments.
The word statistics, when referring to the scientific
discipline, is singular, as in "Statistics is an art." This should
not be confused with the word statistic, referring to a quantity (such
as mean or median) calculated from a set of data. Whose plural is statistics
("this statistic seems wrong" or "these statistics are
misleading").
