Problems and solutions
(6th edition)
The way to understand this stuff is to do problems. Any of the
problems in the text are worth doing; the odd-numbered ones have
answers at the back. The problems listed below
seem especially useful. Detailed solutions for these can be found by
clicking on the
links in the table.
For
a lot of the textbook problems, it will help you to use
StatCrunch.
The
problems as listed in the textbook have the chapter number prefixed;
thus, problem 13 in Section 1.1 is actually Exercise 1.13 in the
textbook.
