A detailed examination of essential statistical computing skills needed for research and industrial work. Students will use S-Plus, Matlab and SAS® to develop algorithms for solving a variety of statistical problems using resampling and simulation techniques such as the bootstrap, Monte Carlo methods and Markov chain methods for approximating probability distributions. Applications to linear and non-linear models will be stressed.
