Announcements (previous ones) or
- 01 Feb: assignment 3 is posted; due on 08 February.
- 06 Feb: quite a few emails asking if enough information is provided, etc. General rule: if information isn't provided, and you think it should have been, use an assumed value, but clearly justify why you've assumed the value, and why you picked the value you did.
- 06 Feb: regarding question 2 and 3: the problem is sufficiently specified, it is just not obvious what you need to do. That's typical ... an industrial statistics problem doesn't present itself to you in the form: "Calculate a confidence interval ...."; you have figure out what you want to determine (the aim), and then what you need to calculate. It is an important skill to learn how to translate an industrial requirement into a statistical calculation.
- 08 Feb: Snow day: class for Friday is cancelled, and assignment 3 is now due on Tuesday, 12 Feb, paper or electronic, at class. No late hand-ins, we will post solutions on 12 February.
- 07 Feb: Important note: A large number of students are submitting assignments electronically, which we encourage and find easier to grade. However, you must follow the electronic submission instructions in order for us to grade your work. If you prefer not to follow these instructions, please submit in paper form instead.
- 10 Feb: assignment 4 will be posted this week, but the due date changed to after reading week. This is as a result of the bump in dates from the snow day.
- 06 Feb: the weekly tests are going well so far, so the midterm for 4C3 is cancelled.
- Expect the grading part of the website to be ready during reading week.
- Expect a slightly longer than normal weekly test at the end of reading week, going into the next week. That test will cover all the course material.
