exercises for Wed Jan 20

1. On Wed Jan 13 we talked about some practicalities, gave a brief overview of the course content and started on some basics from Ch 2, concerning maximum likelihood and the AIC formula. Check out the slides. 

2. We are not allowed to have physical lectures next week, so we will do it digitally, on zoom: https://uio.zoom.us/j/65518671874. From 12:15 to 14:00 there will be lecturing, then exercises from 14:15 to 15:00.

3. Exercises for Wed Jan 20: do exercise 4 from the Nils collection. You can find the Egyptian lifetimes dataset under the "Data, exercises and R programmes folder" (on the left). Feel free to add some more candidate models for example the extended Gamma-Weibull model from exercise 7 (don't do the rest of Ex 7 yet), or a model of your own invention.
