exercises for 9-11 October

In the 9-11 October week, we round off Ch 3, and will soon start Ch 4, with the basics of large-sample approximations (CLT, Lindeberg, more delta method, applications, stories). Again, the curriculum is being defined via the exercises we go through, and for Ch 3 the subset is not so big.

The OBLIG is from Mon Oct 9 to Mon Oct 23, with reports to be delivered inside the Canvas system. 

For Monday 9 Oct we have another extra hour, 14:15 to 15:00. You may send questions by mail. 

We will rather soon start doing exercises from previous exam sets.

Work with these exercises: 

First, for the Sachsen 8-children families, do the details for testing H0: no overdisperson against the alternative of overdisperson, using W_n = S_n^2 / (8 p0hat (1 - p0hat)) as test statistic; see Nils' FocuStat blogpost for some details. 

Then, from Ch 3: 14 (Nora does some of them), 19, 25, 28.
