we start Monday Aug 21

1. As mentioned in the previous message, teaching takes place Mondays 12:15 - 14:00 (room 126) and Wednesdays 12:15 - 14:00 (room 108), and we start Monday Aug 21.

2. "Emnet kan undervises p? norsk dersom foreleser og alle studenter p? f?rste forelesning ?nsker det", from the general information, determines the algorithm for norsk eller engelsk. But even if teaching is p? norsk, messages here, and inside the Canvas system for the course, will be in English. 

3. As also mentioned, the course material will be culled from a not-yet-finished book, "Statistical Inference: 555 Exercises, 55 Stories" (Cambridge University Press, 2024), by Nils Lid Hjort and Emil Stoltenberg. I will have a stk4011-PartOne.pdf ready, to be posted inside Canvas, a week before the first lecture, consisting of 0.90-or-more finished versions of Chapters 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8. 

4. A few weeks later, I will have a stk4011-PartTwo.pdf posted, consisting of 0.90-or-more finished versions of perhaps 15 of the intended 55 Statistical Stories.

5. More information, concerning how the course will proceed, etc., will be given during the first two lectures. In particular, the four-hour written exam is on December 6, and there will be an Oblig to pass (!), around mid October.
