Statistics 311/Electrical Engineering 377: Information Theory and Statistics

Exercises

We will have problem sets due roughly every two weeks, beginning with the first week of class. In effort to upload solutions to the problem sets as quickly as possible once they are due, because this promotes learning well, we will have no extensions to homework. Exercises should be uploaded to Gradescope by 11:59pm the day they are due. All exercises correspond to chapter/exercise numbers in the lecture notes.
