Exercises and solutions

Notice

The exercises, but also the classes will be based on procedures from the freely available, open-source statistical software package R.

Some basic previous knowledge of R is required. If you lack this previous knowledge, do not worry. You can quickly and easily gain it by going over one of the many tutorials which are available. We recommend chapters 1-5 of
http://www.cyclismo.org/tutorial/R/,
or, going through the entire content of
http://math.illinoisstate.edu/dhkim/rstuff/rtutor.html.
The classic resource for the basics on R is the manual “An Introduction to R”, which is quite a bit longer and more technical, but a very worthwhile read:
