Problems, Problems, Problems

We will have two sources of problems for homework assignments:

I suspect most problems will come from (Re)doing since I can modify them a bit and give you better R hints that way, even when I do something a lot like a problem from the book.

Notation

  • ( ): helper – do it, but don’t turn it in
  • [ ]: extra – more practice, don’t turn it in
  • { }: optional – do it or not, don’t turn it in

Solutions and Comments

You can find solutions to and comments on some of the problems here.
