Not an easy class at all.

Joined: Aug 2005 Posts: 22,659 The Pyngwyn Colonies I never took stats in undergrad--not a requirement for English majors. I had a course in grad school in which statistical methods were covered. The professor actually wrote the textbook for the class, which was an interesting experience.

Stats and experimental design are fun and quite useful except that the notion of an impartial observer is totally fallacious.

Joined: Aug 2005 Posts: 22,659 The Pyngwyn Colonies Well I tried to keep the impact pretty light so I wouldn't get those oddly bent fingers when I played piano. I wish I'd kept it up. I can play enough to help teach myself a choir part, but I'm really out of practice.
