Math

If you are interested in exploring more of the math behind the statistics we learn and use, you may find the following resources useful:

1. Students in Math 141 (Introduction to Probability and Statistics) learn statistical computation in R instead of in STATA, but they learn the similar concepts and tests to what we learn in RDDA. 

• Course description
• This year, Albyn Jones' section of the course uses a notes pack sold in the Reed bookstore; Albert Kim's follows this free textbook (available as a PDF online). 
• Albyn's lecture notes are posted online here. His lab notes can be found here. 

2. This interactive website from UAH contains "free, high quality, interactive, web-based resources for students and teachers of probability and statistics."
