Applications 1-3

pdf/cdf histogram/ecdf

CI Coverage Probability simulation

Size of a hypothesis test simulation

Bias

Applications 9

  • app9.ssc trimmed mean, time on target data

Three examples

  • ceo.ssc (Note: When you create your data file ceo.txt be sure to change the missing value * to the S-Plus missing value NA.)
  • poll.ssc
  • rr.ssc

Bootstrap Confidence Intervals for the correlation between 2 quantitative variables simulated from a bivariate normal distribution.  emp, bt, and bca.

Midterm

  • bci.ssc (coverage probability of the bootstrap CI when sampling from a normal population.)
  • bciexp.ssc (coverage probability of the bootstrap CI when sampling from an exponential population.
