At the bottom of the page, the equation should have phi/eta as the first term instead of just phi.

Chapter 6, p. 182

Alyson Wilson — Mon, 22 Nov 2010 16:14:12 +0000

Formula on p. 182, 8 lines from the top should not have 1 – . This may also impact Example 6.5.

Example 3.6

Alyson Wilson — Mon, 22 Nov 2010 16:12:10 +0000

Three lines from the end of the example, 1.387 < 7.81

Chapter 10 Formula, p. 350

Alyson Wilson — Mon, 12 Jul 2010 16:31:02 +0000

The left hand side of the first equation on p. 350 should start as P[pi >= pi_0].

Formula 10.9

Alyson Wilson — Thu, 15 Apr 2010 19:21:14 +0000

On p. 349 in Formula 10.9, pi_0 in the probability statement should be pi_1.

Example 2.4

Alyson Wilson — Mon, 15 Feb 2010 20:56:50 +0000

On p. 38, the marginal probability of observing 3 successes in 11 launches under M2 is incorrect. You can see the correct computation here, with result 0.08528986. This result should be carried through subsequent computations.

Equation 3.6

Alyson Wilson — Thu, 21 Jan 2010 20:21:03 +0000

The brackets in the numerator are incorrect. Using LaTeX notation, change to [m_k(\tilde{theta}) - np_k]^2.

Example 5.3

Alyson Wilson — Tue, 21 Jul 2009 04:40:47 +0000

The fault tree pictured is incorrect. The following is the correct fault tree.

Correct fault tree for Example 5.3.

Exercise 3.6
