Statistics Tutorial: Design and Analysis of Experiments

This is a tutorial for Dr. Edward Brash's statistics class, at Christopher Newport University. Detailed solutions are presented for several problems from the first few chapters of Design and Analysis of Experiments, 6th ed. by Douglas Montgomery. Solutions were prepared using the R statistical programming language, which is much more powerful than MS Excel, but has a significantly steeper learning curve.

Solutions

Problem 2-1, Comparing a single mean to a specified value

Problem 2-2, Comparing a single mean to a specified value (second example)

Problem 2-4, Determining required sample size

Problems 3-1 through 3-3, Analysis of variance

Problem 4-1, Randomized blocks

Problem 5-1, Factorial designs
