Syllabus

Welcome to the course website for SAT 209, Applied Statistics. To begin, you can find the course syllabus linked below:

You can locate course content by scrolling, or by using the outline in the upper left. Please note: material will not be posted until we’ve reached that point in the course.



Coding

My goal is to include the R code that I use to make different graphs, expamples, etc…, for the course. Most of it will be more advanced than what I will teach you or that you need but I want you to have access to examples if you’d like.
