Mathematical Statistics with Resampling and R,
by Laura Chihara and Tim Hesterberg,
Wiley, 2011, ISBN: 978-1-118-02985-5
R Programming for Chihara and Hesterberg's Mathematical Statistics with Resampling and R
Laura Chihara and Tim Hesterberg make available on their web site a comprehensive collection of files illustrating the use of the R programming language in support of their course. The following scripts used those files as their starting points, and added a few pirouettes and swirls that I managed to dream up while working through the material. The alert reader could decipher which are the contributions of the book's authors and which are mine by a simple line-by-line textual analysis of the original files which are available online and the modified ones which are here, but the bottom line is that virtually all of the leadership was provided by the authors, and the following scripts are products of an appreciative student working at absorbing this material. These notes do not contain the solutions to any of the exercises in their text.
An Introduction to the Bootstrap,
by Bradley Efron and Robert J. Tibshirani,
Chapman & Hall/CRC, 1994, ISBN: 0-412-04231-2
R Programming for Efron and Tibshirani's An Introduction to the Bootstrap
Bradley Efron and Robert Tibshirani's An Introduction to the Bootstrap is a marvelous introduction to wide swaths of modern statistics. Fresh and engaging, the examples and discussions create energy and excitement in the exploring student. It is a fine bridge to the survey of much of contemporary statistics presented in Carl Morris and Robert Tibshirani's The Science of Bradley Efron: Selected Papers.
