The F-test is used to find out whether there is a significant difference between the variances of two sets of observations. It takes the ratio of the two sample variances and compares it with the tabulated F value for the degrees of freedom. The t-test compares means, the chi-square test examines goodness of fit or independence between categorical data, and regression relates a dependent variable to independent variables.
