Applied Statistics - Week 4

The following chapters (including exercises in the book!) and computer exercises are considered read, understood, and solved by the end of the week.

Reading:
  • Chapter 7: Bayesian statistics (7.1.5), confidence interval (conceptually!), and Student's t-distribution.
  • Chapter 8: Contingency tables 8.5.3 and Fisher's exact test (from Wiki).

    Computer exercises:
  • FisherDiscriminant: FisherDiscriminant.c (datafiles with names or numbers)
               For hint and solution: FisherDiscriminant_HalfSolution.c and FisherDiscriminant_Solution.c
  • AsciiToNtuple: AsciiToNtuple.c (Example datafile (from project 1))

    Comments:
    Work should be focused on the project, along with a few exercises!
