help a brainlet to understand statistics so that i can take some college classes that require basic knowledge about it. can you recommend some learning software or books? the highest form of math i ever dabbled in was differentiation, most of which i forgot by now.

Devore's Probability and Statistics for Engineering and the Sciences is a good intro book, if you brush up on some basic calculus. It'll teach you what you need without entrenching you too deep in formality, and emphasizing techniques you'll probably never use

Brush up with your calculus first:
