% ____________________________________________________________________ % % Data Diskette for % CASE STUDIES IN BIOMETRY % % By Nicholas Lange, Louise Ryan and Lynne Brillard, David Brillinger, % Loveday Conquest, Joel Greenhouse. % % Published by John Wiley & Sons, Inc., copyright 1994. % ____________________________________________________________________ % % You have obtained all of the data used by all of the authors in the % twenty-one chapters of Case Studies in Biometry. % % Each chapter contains either one or two data sets, except for Chapter 19, % which has seven data sets. Corresponding to each data set are ASCII files % with extensions ".dat" (the data), ".txt" (the data description file), and % ".sas" (a simple SAS program to read the .dat file). % % For chapters containing only one data set, the file name prefix is % "ch" followed by chapter number, and then the above extensions. % For instance, for Chapter 2 you will find files "ch2.dat", % "ch2.txt", and "ch2.sas". % % For chapters containing two data sets, the letters "a" and "b" are % added after the chapter number. For instance, for Chapter 1, you will % find the files "ch1a.dat", "ch1a.txt", "ch1a.sas", "ch1b.dat", % "ch1b.txt", "ch1b.sas". % % For chapter 19, there are seven data sets, ch19a.dat % through ch19g.dat. Each one has the same format, but % refers to different subsets of the whole data % set. Details are given in the single text file, ch19.txt. % % Please note permissions and usage information included in % the .txt file for each subset. % _______________________________________________________________ % % %%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%% % File: ch4b.dat % %%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%% % File specific Information: % %%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%% % % CASE STUDIES IN BIOMETRY: Chapter 4. % % Measurement Error Models for Gypsy Moth Studies % % John P.
