Exercises 14 and 15 a-c from Exercises in STK3100/4100, Exercise 14 was essentially done in class so the main challenge is to recognize the alternative notation. More details on 14 and 15 can be found here ex_14_15_derivations. The notes from 17.09.2015 are available at set4.
Week 37 (9/7-9/11): Exercises 8-13 from Exercises in STK3100/4100 . The data for exercise 12 and 13 are the data sets beetle and "Birth" available on the course web page.
