ST790R -- Fall 2009

  Homework #7 -- due Tuesday, 24 November 2009
   
  Perform a simulation experiment following one of the topics.
  Be clear about what questions that you want to answer, as some of
  the topics present more than a single issue.  Incorporate at least 
  one factor (but no more than two) in addition to sample size.  
  Perform a proper statistical analysis of the results.  Your 
  report should follow
    a) statement of problem, 
    b) questions to be addressed,
    c) description of the design of the experiment,
    d) computational details,
    e) analysis of results,
    f) conclusions,
   *g) of course, include your code (with comments) and output.
  Be sure to temper the complexity of your study (e.g. the number of
  factors, levels, or responses(power, bias, etc.)) with your ability 
  to address an issue clearly and completely.
 
  The topics are described in a different file: simstudy09.pdf

  Use the *NEXT* to last digit of your student id to determine which 
  topic: 0,1 = Topic #1; 2,3,4 = Topic #2; 5,6 = Topic #3;
  7,8 = Topic #4; 9 = Topic #5.
