This applet shows a scatterplot of height versus foot length. Users can add or delete points and then guess the regression line by clicking "Your Line" and moving the blue regression line. By clicking "Regression Line" users can see the actual regression line. The applet also shows the correlation and R-square for the data as well as the residuals and squared residuals for the guessed regression line and the actual regression line.

HotBits is a genuine random number generator powered by radioactive decay. Simply click the "Request HotBits" link, and specify how many bytes you would like (up to 2048) and in what form you prefer them. Hexadecimal returns numbers and letters, while C language returns integers. Then click the "Get HotBits" button, and your random numbers will appear on the screen.

This page explains simple linear regression with an example on muscle strength versus lean body mass.

This lesson introduces simple linear regression with several Excel spreadsheet examples such as temperature versus cricket chirps, height versus shoe size, and laziness versus amount of TV watched. These activities require class participation.

This dataset comes from a study of 26 healthy male subjects randomly assigned to a two-period crossover design. Patients were given either Drug A or Drug B, and data on plasma levels were collected. Questions from this study refer the similarity of the drugs. A text file version of the data is found in the relation link.

This dataset comes from a study of 48 hypertensive patients given one of 3 doses of one drug and one dose of another drug. Questions from this study refer to associations and relationships between the drugs. A text file version of the data is found in the relation link.

This dataset comes from a study of 16 healthy subjects randomly assigned to one of two treatment sequences in a two period crossover design. Treatments were from two different drug companies. Questions from this study refer to the similarities of the two treatments. A text file version of the data is found in the relation link.

This dataset comes from a study of 100 female mice treated with one of 3 doses of a drug, and then impregnated by untreated males. The fetuses were examined for skeletal malformations. Questions from this study refer to the relationship between affected fetuses and dosage. A text file version of the data is found in the relation link.

This dataset comes from a study of 100 mice assigned randomly to one of five treatment groups of graded dosages of a drug. They were also given an injection of another drug, and sleeping times were recorded for each mouse. Questions from this study refer to the relationship between sleeping times and dosage. A text file version of the data is found in the relation link.
