Paired t-test

Think back to the potato field example that we dealt with previously. Here, you've been provided with a small DataFrame (podataframe) containing information on 10 Fields. We are interested in potato yield in tons/hectare. For each Field, we have a value for its Yield2018, before the application of a new fertilizer, and its Yield2019, after the application of the new fertilizer. You'll need to perform two t-tests, a standard two-sample test, and a paired t-test. A paired t-test will control for the variation between fields. Do the two tests give the same result? scipy.stats is loaded as stats.
