A simple ANOVA
I was browsing Davies Design and Analysis of Industrial Experiments (second edition, 1967). Published by for ICI in times when industry did that kind of thing. It is quite an applied book. On page 107 there is an example where the variance of a process is estimated.DataData is from nine batches from which three samples were selected ...

Unemployment in Europe
A couple of years I have made plots of unemployment and its change over the years. At first this was a bigger and complex piece of code. As things have progressed, the code can now become pretty concise. There are just plenty of packages to do the heavy lifting. So, this year I tried to make the code easy to read and reasonably docume...

Confidence intervals for Proportions
Since I read documents with Clopper-Pearson a number of times the last weeks, I thought it a good idea to play around with confidence intervals for proportions a bit; to examine how intervals differ between various approaches. From a frequentist side Clopper-Pearson, which is described as the frequentist’s gold standard and secondly...

Happy PI day
I have never done a post for PI day. This year I want to do so.So, we all know the simple estimation of PI based on random numbers. The code used here is chosen for speed in R.pi2d 4*sum(rowSums(matrix(runif(N*2)^2,ncol=2))<1)/N}What irritates me, is the low efficiency of this estimate. What do you get for 10 000 simulations? Proba...
