Hello all,
I'm looking for a c compiler which can work for Splus in windows. At least
gcc port for windows cygwin doesn't work, and I don't have watcom c. Anyone
has such experience before?
Thanks very much,

I have a problem which I am hoping someone can help me solve. (No, this is
not a problem from class, but a real-life problem from industry.)
A product has a specification of <= 1 defect/10 cm^2. The product has an
overall surface area of X cm^2. While this specification was not obtained

I asked Minitab support how they did it. Here is their answer:

Jonathan,
I finally found an answer for you. Here's the algorithm.
There are upper and lower bounds on th

Why would you expect a strong correlation here? You're talking about tests done a year apart with some new kids in each school and some kids who have moved on.
Is regression toward the mean causing all of the noted results. Probably not. But it is quite conceivable that it could be partial

Of course it "occurs": - but remember that the magnitude depends on
r^2. In the case where there is strong correlation between the pretest

Dear Gene,
I share your feelings about MCAS (fortunately my daughter finished high
school before it came into effect, but that's no consolation for the
thousands of other kids who are supposed to be deprived of their high
school diplomas), and had some similar reactions to the article.

that one would expect a high enough r^2 between schools' performances in

Dear Colleagues;
I derived the following equation using MINITAB:
