Using the Library

OzDASL is a library of data sets and associated stories. It is intended as a resource for teachers of statistics in Australia and New Zealand, and emphasis is given to data sets with an Australasian context.

Data sets are grouped by the most obvious applicable methodology.  However these are not exclusive. For example, data sets with several variables can often be used for simple linear regression as well as for multiple regression, and almost any variable provides an example of a single sample.

Methods are listed from simple to advance, in much the same order as they would be introduced in a statistics course. Even within methods, data sets are listed in order of size and complexity, from simple to advanced.
