![]() The normal distribution is centered at the mean, μ. What is the consequence in this case? Standard Normal DistributionĬharacteristics of the standard normal distribution Type II error-occurs if Drug B is truly more effective, but we fail to reject the null hypothesis and conclude there is no significant evidence that the two drugs vary in effectiveness. Type I error-occurs if the two drugs are truly equally effective, but we conclude that Drug B is better. Efficacy is measured using a continuous variable, Y, and. Two drugs are to be compared in a clinical trial for use in treatment of disease X. However, in practice we fix α and choose a sample size n large enough to keep β small (that is, keep power large). Ideally, both error types (α and β) are small. Using the p-value also satisfies this criteria. Note that here we compared the test statistic to the critical value.A statement of whether the effect (observed difference) is statistically significant and the significance level (α).The test statistic and degrees of freedom.Note, this should be reported regardless of whether or not it is statistically significant!.a 69.8 unit mean decrease from 1952 to 1962.The magnitude, direction, and units of the effect (observed mean difference).(The mean difference in the previous example) A statement of the null hypothesis and alternative hypothesis in terms of the population parameter of interest.Since the absolute value of our test statistic (6.70) is greater than the critical value (2.093) we reject the null hypothesis and conclude that there is on average a non-zero change in cholesterol from 1952 to 1962. For a significance level of 0.05 and 19 degrees of freedom, the critical value for the t-test is 2.093. The critical value 2.093 can be read from a table for the t-distribution.Ĭholesterol levels decreased, on average, 69.8 units from 1952 to 1962. For this example, the sampling distribution of the test statistic, t, is a student t-distribution with 19 degrees of freedom. ![]() The decision rule is constructed from the sampling distribution for the test statistic t. H 1: There is an average non-zero change in cholesterol level from 1952 to 1962ĭecision rule: Reject H 0 at α=0.05 if |t| > 2.093 H 0: There is no change, on average, in cholesterol level from 1952 to 1962 The p-value, the probability of a test result at least as extreme as the one observed if the null hypothesis was true, can also be calculated.Įxample - Paired t-test of change in cholesterol from 1952 to 1962ĭ is the difference in cholesterol for each individual from 1952 to 1962 if the value of the test statistic falls outside the critical region, then there is not enough evidence to reject the null hypothesis at the chosen significance level.if the value of the test statistic falls inside the critical region, then the null hypothesis is rejected at the chosen significance level.This region is chosen such that the probability of the test statistic falling in the critical region when the null hypothesis is correct (Type I error) is equal to the previously chosen level of significance (α). ![]() Based on the hypotheses, test statistic, and sampling distribution of the test statistic, we can find the critical region of the test statistic which is the set of values for the statistical test that show evidence in favor of the alternative hypothesis and against the null hypothesis.

The bus moves responsively and more complicated maneuvers require thought and precision (like turning, roundabouts, etc.), and the challenges the game sets before you are easy enough to manage without getting overwhelmed. Overall, the actual driving of the bus was more good than bad. Personally, I found myself focusing a lot more on being perfect because I didn’t want to compromise my earnings at the end of the route. It’s a simple model, but it works effectively. ![]() Signaled before turning into the bus stop? Great! Hit the speed bump too fast? Not great. At the end of the drive, you get paid out based on a pretty simple equation: all the good stuff you did minus all the bad stuff you did. The game throws a lot of curve balls at you while driving, such as fare dodgers, passengers listening to loud music, speeding cameras, and some absurdly placed potholes. You control pretty much everything on the bus, so you must dispense tickets, open and close the doors, and even extend the wheelchair ramp when required. You take the driver’s seat in a bus and drive it around town, picking up and dropping off passengers. No surprise there, it is there in the title of the game. At the lowest level, it’s about driving buses. As someone who finds the idea of driving a bus in real life particularly un-fun, I was genuinely curious how a game could go about turning such a menial, job-like task into something interesting and replayable.īus Simulator 18 has a couple of different levels to its gameplay. ![]() Given my own feelings about simulators as a genre, I was intrigued by this trailer.

It is heartening to witness the passion for learning that our students demonstrate, and I am immensely proud of their accomplishments.Īs we finish the year, I extend my deepest gratitude to our exceptional staff for their dedication, our students for their hard work and enthusiasm, and our parents for their continued support. Our students embraced these experiences with enthusiasm, gaining valuable skills and forming lasting memories. To end the week and celebrate the last day of the year we had a disco in the gym. These courses, including excursions to the museum, city scavenger hunts, visits to Cleland Wildlife Park, game-making, Christmas card creation, arts and crafts, Christmas cookie baking, a whole day of trivia, mini-Olympics, swimming, and a whole day of stem provided our students with new and exciting learning opportunities outside the traditional classroom setting.

Run list volume again and note that the ESP is now assigned a driver letter. Now do select volume x (where x is the volume number for the ESP) and then assign letter=N: to mount the partition. Note the volume number for your EFI system partition (ESP). Select that disk with select disk x (where x is the disk number from the last step).

There's unfortunately almost no up-to-date guides on fixing the UEFI Windows Boot Manager (almost all of them just say to run the graphical Startup Repair utility, but that doesn't fix the problem in all cases), but I finally found the correct solution buried in this article, which requires the use of the bcdboot command instead: The other answers given here work great on MBR/BIOS systems, however if you're on a UEFI system like I am, bootsect will just write a semi-functional boot MBR over the GPT protective MBR and bootrec just gives an "Access denied" error message, and neither one has a functional option to fix a broken EFI system partition, which on a UEFI/GPT drive is what contains the bootloader that used to be stored in the MBR. If you have no intent to Shoot the Moon and do not have the Queen, King or Ace of Spades & you have won the prior trick you should keep laying Spades until you force someone to eat the Queen.If you are not holding the Queen of Spades you typically want to lay in a fashion that allows you to get rid of your highest cards as soon as you can while giving yourself the most flexibility with future plays & not risking eating the Queen of Spades.If you are passing left you typically want to pass the 2 of Clubs. If you have both the 2 of Clubs and Ace of Clubs you should pass one of them.The Ace of Clubs is less risky than other Aces since you can lay it on the first trick and players are prohibited from laying any Hearts or the Queen of Spades in the opening hand.When swapping cards it is usually best to pass along Queen, King, or Ace of a suit unless you are trying to Shoot the Moon.If you have the Ace, King, or Queen of Spades & few low spades you should pass the high Spade cards unless you want to shoot the moon.Having a large number of low value Spades (anything below the Queen) lowers the odds you will get stuck eating the Queen of Spades. Try not to lay off low ranking Spades as someone may send you the Queen, King or Ace.In general a great strategy to have is to try to have 3 or fewer suits if possible so that you have flexibility in laying off cards.When you pass across the person both knowns what you sent them and what they sent you. ![]() Likewise the person who passes you cards knows that they sent you.When you pass left or right the person who receives them knows what you gave them & may be able to infer your strategy based on that.The passing cards phase is almost as important as the order in which you lay cards.they have nothing but Hearts remaining in their hand.a Heart has already been laid & the suit is broken.Players may not lead with a Heart unless either:.Players may not lay the Queen of Spades or any Hearts on the opening hand.Whoever has the 2 of clubs starts the game by laying it.Players must follow the suit led when laying a card if they hold that suit in their hand.Before play begins players may be required to exchange 3 cards with other players.When someone hits 100 points the game is over and whoever has the lowest total score thusfar wins. Players continue to play new hands until someone hits 100 points.If a player manages to capture all 13 hearts and the Queen of Spades then they score zero points and all other players have 26 points added to their score.The winner is whoever has the least points at the end of a hand.The Queen of Spades is worth 13 points.Each Heart inside won tricks is worth a point.If you win a trick and there is a Heart in it then you score a point.Whoever wins a hand leads the next hand.If there are no Hearts and no Queen of Spades in the hand then no points are scored.Whoever lays the highest card in the suit which led wins the hand.The menu has buttons to resume the game, start a new game or read game rules. ![]()
