Class Week 6

Writing

• Discuss differences/similarities between
  • parent distribution
  • sampling distribution
  • data distribution
• Where does ‘probability distribution’ fit in?

Simulation

• Explore distribution of min, max, median, range

• 3 distributions - unimodal, skewed, crazy

• plotted on board

• which are parent, sampling, and data distributions?

• which are approximate? theoretical?

• What would have to be modified to explore sample size?

Assignment

Modify simulation to explore sample size. Submit 2-3 lecture slides on canvas exploring the effect of sample size on the sampling distribution.
