From most recent to earliest
- A good overview of understanding plotting in R is given in this YouTube video.
- 17 Jan: Please follow these instructions to submit an assignment electronically. Whether you choose paper (in class) or electronic, assignments are due at 12:30 pm on Friday.
- A tutorial for the course software is now available. It shows how to download and install the software and steps to get started. You'll need this for assignment 1.
- A copy of the tables for the normal and \(t\)-distribution can be downloaded and printed. Bring to the next 2 or 3 classes.
- If you want to receive these announcements on your cell, but don't have a Twitter account, text: follow stats4eng to this number 21212 and you'll get a text message instead of a tweet.
- Solutions for the first test are now available: sign in http://quest.mcmaster.ca/ to compare your answers. In a week or two the system will also automatically grade you (where possible); that feature isn't developed yet.
Another interesting seminar on campus: John Bianchini, CEO of Hatch, will be talking at the free Chemical Engineering seminar on Thursday, 17 January, 10:30 to 11:20, JHE326H: moved to 28 March.- Assignment 1 is posted; due 18 January, in class on paper, or electronically. Please do not use the Chem Eng dropbox for assignment submissions.
- The weekly test closes at 6AM on Tuesday morning, 15 January; a few students were under the mistaken impression that they can do the test during the day on Tuesday.
- The weekly test has been emailed to your McMaster email address. Please follow the link and instruction to complete the test. Let me know if you experience any technical difficulties.
- If you didn't receive the automated email, you can re-request it from http://quest.mcmaster.ca/
- There was a technical issue that sent a second sign-in email around 11:07 on Monday morning; please ignore that email.
- If you get the message "Sorry - you are not registered to use the Quest website", then you are not on my official class list. Please email me your full name, student number and McMaster email address.
- Notes for the next section, univariate data analysis, are available.
- Notes for the first section of the course are available: Visualizing process data
- You should probably wait until after the first class before printing the course textbook. I have some advice on what to print.
- The first class is on Tuesday, 08 January, in T13 room 127 at 12:30.
- The course outline is available.
