Let us get down to basics:
An integral is nothing but a sum of too many products

#130 Re: Help Me ! » Is there such a function? » 2010-10-04 22:53:05

This kind of problems is created only in real number theory.

#131 Re: Help Me ! » Probability and Statistics - Bayes' Theorem » 2010-10-04 22:51:12

P(T1 | B2) = (8 choose 1)/(10 choose 2), as there are (8 choose 1) ways to select the remaining non-defective component.

You can also sign up for the R-help mailing list which is basically the
same as the archive above, in real time

You can also ask R-related questions on stackoverflow

This is the best Chinese R website so far.

This problem implicitly treats 34 and 43 the same.

#136 Re: Help Me ! » counting triangles » 2010-09-23 14:40:27

It is really a hard question on maps. Better get the answer sheet.

#137 Re: Help Me ! » Simple Mechanics Problem » 2010-09-23 14:39:24

S=t*(v0+vt)/2=t*(v0+v0+a*t)/2=v0*t+a*t*t/2

#138 Re: Help Me ! » Probability Problem » 2010-09-23 14:36:19

It is a pity that there are few books explaining useful distributions.

#139 Re: Help Me ! » Probability Problem » 2010-09-23 14:35:14

Yes, it is a typical hypergeometric problem.
For more teachings on probability distributions,
I would recommend this book
Models for Probability and Statistical Inference: Theory and Applications
by James H. Stapleton

#140 Re: Help Me ! » 2 problems: limit and inverse » 2010-09-23 14:28:56

y=x*ln(x)   x>0
exp(y)=exp(ln(x)*x)=x^x

#141 Re: Help Me ! » probability/measure theory question. » 2010-09-15 15:20:11

If you mean changing the probability from univariate to bivarite like U=X*Y, where X and Y are i.i.d variables. The marginal density for each is still the original density of X.

#142 Re: Help Me ! » What is second partial derivative? » 2010-09-13 20:54:40

Well it is the accelaration with respect to x and x only.

#144 Re: Help Me ! » Matrix X'X=A is given <- how to get X? » 2010-09-10 15:32:35

I guess you should take primary manipulation both horizontally and vertically until you reduce it to simple I matrix, that is
A=P[sub]n[/sub]...P[sub]3[/sub]P[sub]2[/sub]P[sub]1[/sub]IP'[sub]1[/sub]P'[sub]2[/sub]P'[sub]3[/sub]...P'[sub]n[/sub]

#146 Re: Help Me ! » triple integral » 2010-09-10 14:39:04

Could you just change the integration order to
y->x->z ?

#148 Re: Help Me ! » Why does an Linear Congruential Generator work? » 2010-09-08 17:46:12

Indeed bob it should be proved this way.
I already asked JaneFairFox for help, for she mentioned this theorem before.

#149 Re: Help Me ! » Explain why 0.3 = 0.30 = 0.300 etc. » 2010-09-08 17:44:48

Hi bobbym, it involves the problem whether real matter is abitarily divisible. If not, there is some N that 1/10^M (M>N) of a particular piece does not make sense, like saying 1/100 of a water molecule.
