Homework Problems

The numbering scheme

• Problems "C1.2" refer to a custom homework problem (click the link to get to it).
• Problems like "1.16" refers to a textbook exercise number 16 in Chapter 1 of the book.
• All textbook exercises are in a subsection entitled "Exercises" or "Supplementary Exercises".
• The question mark (?) at the end of the problem signals that the problem is suggested, but not graded.
• Problem "7.1(a,b)" that only parts (a) and (b) of the problem are assigned/suggested.
• Problems starting with "Applet Exercise" suggest the use of software. Unfortunately, the Applets (i.e. Java Applets) no longer exist. You are expected to use R to solve them. Instructions will be provided by the instructor, as necessary, to re-interpret the problem as an R problem. There is a collection of resources with similar functionality here: The Textbook Visual and Computational Aids

To help identify graded problems, this color scheme is adapted in the table below:

1. Color of required (graded) problems.
2. Color of suggested (ungraded) problems.
