-- Just shoot me now... (http://discussion.visorcentral.com/vcforum/showthread.php?threadid=24529)

Just shoot me now...

I am in Statistics Hell... I have two research papers due, and 10 stat problems that are giving me gray hair (okay, more gray hair...)

Please put me out of my misery, or at least give me a little sympathy...

Sorry

Eeek. I remember statistics well. Actually, I will say I remember the hell of statistics well Hang in there!

Thanks!

I appreciate the kind words... I just finished the stat problems, now for the research papers. I locked up all sharp objects, just in case...

The sad part is, I will probably never use about 90% of this stuff.

Oh no, was that a statistic?

I don't know which is worse, dealing with those stats, or having a mom getting a degree using them.

The latter isn't so fantastic.

Ummm.. sadistics, I remember it well (and calculus too, oh the bad memories), I always though integrals and such looked like satanic writing, like somehow if I wrote something the wrong way by accident I would summon the devil.. I mean, Just look at this , doesn't it just look evil (yes I know it's a calc problem) : http://math.stcc.mass.edu/mcdonald/...Problem%206.gif

Doesn't it look like the work of the devil??

Late to the funsies

My dad is a statistian. He's always telling us about the statistician who drowned b/c the river was two feet deep on average.

(I know, I know, we groan whenever we hear it, too!)

I hated stats. Never really thought there was a practical use for it until I started studying digital signal processing (where it's used heavily in frequency analysis, if I remember correctly).

Still hate it, but at least there is a use for it.
