I mean person who administrates something is called administrator. Person who manages something is called manager. How to call a person who works with statistics?

  • I don't think your line of reasoning is quite right. A manager doesn't "work with managing", but you would have gotten it if you said that "a mathematician works with math" –  Mar 16 '13 at 03:16

    TIKSN, the "how to call" wording is incorrect in English. You should replace the how with what. You would benefit from reading the discussion at this link http://english.stackexchange.com/questions/150325/how-do-we-call-something-in-english – Tristan r Aug 01 '14 at 15:29

One calls him or her a "statistician."

    Could TIKSN not find this in a dictionary? Or is EL&U now so well-established that one comes here before a dictionary? If so, it seems to have worked. – GEdgar Mar 16 '13 at 03:02

    @GEdgar I would really like to know how to look up a word of which I only know the meaning. You know, as a English learner, I often don't know how to express myself because I can't find a suitable phrase. – zwangxian Mar 16 '13 at 04:25
  • In this case, look in the dictionary near the entry "statistics" to find related words. – GEdgar Mar 16 '13 at 13:38
