![](/common/images/spacer.gif) This is a half-term course for fourth year and graduate students. The purpose of this course is to introduce the students to state-of-the art computer software for research work in statistics. I have always had good student evaluations with this course but the class size is small about 6 to 15 students per year. I have taught this course for 3 years. Topics: - Statistical graphics
- Simulation solution of problems in probability
- Bootstrapping
