Programming Challenges
- PC0. I've provided the full dataset from which I drew each of your samples in a TSV file in the directory
week_05
in class assignment git repository. These are tab delimited, not comma delimited. TSV, is related to CSV and is also a common format. Go ahead and load it into R (HINT:read.delim()
). Take the mean of the variablex
in that dataset. That is the true population mean — the thing we have been creating estimates of in week 2 and week 3.
Statistical Questions from OpenIntro §6
- Q0. Any questions or clarifications from the OpenIntro text or lecture notes?
- Q1. Exercise 6.12 on public opinion about cannabis legalization
- Q2. Exercise 6.20 a continuation of 6.12
- Q3. Exercise 6.38 on translating a problem in English into statistical tests
- Q4. Exercise 6.50 another voter/public opinion question
