{"product_id":"a-basic-course-in-statistics-isbn-9780470973875","title":"A Basic Course in Statistics","description":"Expanded and revised to include new computing exercises using actual data along with tips, solutions and a set of updated questions. Computer use is encouraged to facilitate analysis of data sets too large to be done by hand; to assist in the drawing of diagrams, histograms and scatter plots; to simulate probability models in order to illustrate probability and statistical theory. Explains how to tackle computing exercises using the statistical package MINITAB. \u003cp\u003eIntroduction\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eList of projects\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eNotation\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e1.
