Below you should see a bunch of directories, in which there are data sets and certain things. Also, depending on the time of the year, you may see a link to a syllabus or assignments. It was driving me crazy trying to keep separate directories for separate classes, so I've pooled them and you can take whatever documents suit your interest and aptitude.
I started a centralized "help archive" in another account. Go here to look it over:
Online Guides(FAQ) for Stats and Programming : In there you should find links to various FAQ documents I prepared as
well as code samples for SAS and R.
If you are looking for my Rtips page, just Click HERE!
Originally, when I started teachign at KU, I preferred SAS, pretty strongly. I always thought SPSS was flat-out no good. I never thought Stata was a viable alternative. It is crippled by major weaknesses, not the least of which is the "one dataset at a time" philosophy. Now I'm pretty enthusiastic about R. It has all the freedom of SAS, less of the crap, easier programmability, and, best of all, it is free and open source. If you have the money to buy a stat program, I suggest you buy S+. S+ is the same language base as R, but it has a commercial quality graphical interface that it inherited when its company purchased a program called Axum (which I used throughout the 1990s) and put the S+ guts into the Axum graphical interface.
