Old Faithful -- The first column contains the variable "duration", which gives the duration of the previous eruption of the geyser "Old Faithful" in minutes. The "interval" variable gives the number of minutes between the start of eruptions. The variable "day" is an index that represents the day the observations were taken. Tab Deliminated.
Classdata -- This file contains the results of our in-class "survey". (That last link takes you to text that shows the survey.) Each row of the dataset represents a person, and each column is the answer to one of the questions. The first row contains the variable names, so if you are using DataDesk (ActivStats), use the "Use These Variable Names" options when importing the data. Tab Deliminated.

1998. The second column is for Ken Griffy, 1989 through 1997.

1920 through 1934.
THE FIRST COLUMN IS A HEADER AND MIGHT NEED TO BE DELETED BY SOME DATA
ANALYSIS PROGRAMS. Tab deliminated.
