I've discussed this with Gary and we've decided to give you an extension on the problem set due this Thursday until the Thursday after Thanksgiving (Dec 2). This is intended to give you more time to work on the replication due this coming Monday (Nov 22) and the memo (replication of someone else's replication) due the following Monday (Nov 29). Those who have already done the problem set will be able to simulate quantities for non-standard distributions in time for the 22nd, so that's a bonus for those groups (because everyone will have to simulate quantites for their final paper and you can have someone else check your work if you turn it in now). We will not accept any late replications because everyone has to replicate someone else's replication in the following week, so having missing replications would throw everything off. In light of this, if you fail to turn in your replication, you won't recieve a memo assignment (a replication to replication) and will recieve a 0 for both the replication assignment and the memo. I hope this encourages everyone to turn in the replication on time -- even if it's not complete (e.g., you couldn't replicate tables 5-10 out of 10), you should still turn it in to get feedback (and some points). In addition, sections are cancelled this week. I'll hold additional OH upstairs in the CBRSS bay. Please come if you are having problems, need something explained, etc. (Those of you who have made additional appointments can keep those.) Finally, I need *one* individual from each group (please coordinate among yourselves) to send me the following info ASAP: 1) Group members (only count people who are taking the course for credit) 2) Title of the paper 3) Your estimated level of difficulty getting your stuff to replicate: Let 1 be really easy and 10 be impossible (This will affect the number of copies you have to turn in on Monday. I've realized that there are a lot of groups of 3, so turning in 3 copies will be insufficient.) Thanks! Olivia. _______________________________________________ gov2001-l mailing list gov2001-l(a)lists.fas.harvard.edu http://lists.fas.harvard.edu/mailman/listinfo/gov2001-l

I'm starting to go through the problem sets answer keys, and only gone through #1 so far, but I wanted to say the solution set is really good, the code is clean and concise and understandable. thanks, amit At 11:13 PM 11/16/2004 -0500, you wrote:
