Description
This book covers statistics topics with strong emphasis on regression, statistical inference, use of the computer in statistical analysis, and using statistics to make management decisions in the real world. Many of the exercises have marks which indicate whether the exercise should be done with hand computation methods, with a computer, or with a combination of both. There is an increased use of computer analysis, and a data diskette containing the data sets for the computer data base comes with each copy of the text.
