I am new to R and Im some trouble with the following question...
Generate 100 standard normal N(0,1) samples of size 100, X1(k),...,X100(k)
where k=1,...,100 (The k is and indicie in brackets)
Calculate the sample mean for each sample.
For each sample mean Xbark the 0.95-confidence interval for the mean mew=0
is given by...
Ik= ( Xbark plus or minus 1.96/10)
Find the number of intervals such that 0 does not belong to Ik. How many of
them do you expect to see?
Well so far I have come up with...
N<-100; Nsamp<-100
A<-matrix(rnorm(N*Nsamp,0,1),ncol=Nsamp)
means<-apply(A,2,mean)
However I have no idea what I am doing and no idea if that even makes sense.
Any help would be greatly appreciated as I have no experience of statistical
software whatsoever.
Thanks in Advance.
Rachel
