Statistical Questions
Exercises from OpenIntro §2
- Q0. Any questions or clarifications from the OpenIntro text or lecture notes?
- Q1. Exercise 4.8 on Twitter users and news
- Q2. Exercise 4.10 which is a continuation of 4.8
- Q3. Exercise 4.19 on online communication
- Q4. Exercise 4.32 which is asking you to explain why certain statements about statistical inference are true or false
Empirical Paper
