Preface
This manual contains solutions to all of the exercises in the book “Statistical
Computing with R” including R code if programming was required in the problem.
The solution manual was prepared with Sweave so any output shown is unedited.
The chunks of R code in solutions have been extracted using Stangle, and the
resulting source files are available upon request. The solutions have been checked
in the latest release of R (R-2.6.0) with the latest package versions available at that
release date. Also see personal.bgsu.edu/~mrizzo for updates and the R code for
examples in the book. Comments, corrections, and suggestions are always welcome.
