The following are lecture notes that I use for my statistics course. They are not complete but might be helpful to you. Please note that I change the course frequently so some topics may not be covered this semester. Many of these topics have diagrams and should therefore be viewed in the "Print Layout View," not the "Normal View" in MS Word. Use the View Menu (bottom of page on left) to select the "Print Layout View."
These lecture notes have been developed by Drs. HH Friedman and Yusheng Peng of
Brooklyn College and Dr. LW Friedman of Baruch College. We hope they will
be helpful to you. They are not intended to replace going to class. It is
almost impossible to learn statistics without a teacher.
