1 Stats 2 Computer Practicals

This website is the homepage for the Statistical Inference II computer practicals.

  • Each practical has an associated worksheet, which you can find from the menu at the top of the page.
  • Practical sessions are online-only, acting primarily as drop-in sessions if you have questions about the worksheet for that week.
  • To keep a record of your work, it is strongly recommended that you download the script file for each practical, and use it to write and save your solutions.
  • R code solutions to the practicals will be available on Ultra the week after each practical class.
