STA2023 Elementary Statistics
Application Assignment Data Sets (2026)
The data sets were created with a Gaussian random number generator on the website random.org . The population values ( m = population mean and s = population standard deviation ) were used with the random number generator to simulate a normally distributed random sample obtained via research. The population values are approximated from various online sources.
