      Null hypothesis, as in the data shows no evidence to suggest that there is any statistical difference between the 2 outcomes. At least, thats how I understand it.

      Null Hypothesis (H0) – This can be thought of as the implied hypothesis. “Null” meaning “nothing.” This hypothesis states that there is no difference between groups or no relationship between variables. The null hypothesis is a presumption of status quo or no change.

      Alternative Hypothesis (Ha) – This is also known as the claim. This hypothesis should state what you expect the data to show, based on your research on the topic. This is your answer to your research question.

          😂 ok only just got the pun…

          Null hypothesis always bugged me coming from a software background. Why the double negative! Just confuses me!
