population. It is often used inmarketing research. In this technique, the total population is divided into these groups (or clusters) and a simple random sample of the groups is selected. The elements in each cluster are then sampled. If all elements in each cluster are sampled, then this is referred to as a "one-stage" cluster design. If a simple random subsample of elements is selected within each of these groups, this is referred to as a "two-stage" design. A common motivation for cluster sampling

developing countries- Australia, Bangladesh, Canada, Chile, Colombia, Germany, Italy, Jamaica, Japan, Malaysia, Mexico, Philippine, S. Africa, Spain, and Venezuela. Stationarity of market return is tested and found none of this stock market follows random walk model, means not efficient in weak form. To investigate the reasons of market inefficiency, relationship between share price and interest rate, and changes of share price and changes of interest rate were determined through both time series and

Perception of College of Arts and Sciences Freshmen Students Towards Math 2 Subject Introduction Mathematics is an essential subject that is part of the curriculum. Through this, we learn how to count, to solve and to analyze problems involving numbers. The application of Mathematics is in our daily life. Learning Math should not be neglected because it will be our foundation in our future career. Understanding Math in a deeper way is quite difficult, that is why it is not new to us to hear

Monte Carlo Simulation Using RiskSim 9 9.1 RISKSIM OVERVIEW RiskSim is a Monte Carlo Simulation add-in for Microsoft Excel (Excel 97 and later versions) for Windows and Macintosh. RiskSim provides random number generator functions as inputs for your model, automates Monte Carlo simulation, and creates charts. Your spreadsheet model may include various uncontrollable uncertainties as input assumptions (e.g., demand for a new product, uncertain variable cost of production, competitor reaction)

development and growth, reproduction, homeostasis, regulation and processing energy. When we view these together the eight items define life. Organisms and creatures are organized and coordinated structures that consist of one or more cells. Even the very simple, single-celled organisms and creatures are complex. Inside each cell atoms make up molecules, these atoms and molecules in turn make up organelles and other inclusions. In a multicellular organism or creature similar cells from tissues. These

critique of Sampling. 1. What was the sampling methods used? Was random sampling used? If so, was it stratified? If the sample was not selected at random, is it at least reasonably diverse? Does the sample include minorities, women, low-income individuals, and or at-risk populations? If the sample is not sufficiently diverse what impact will this have on the generalizability of the study’s findings? If the sample wasn’t selected at random, does the researcher explicitly discuss this limitation? Has the

Measurement and Measurement Error PHYS 1313 S06 Prof. T.E. Coan Version: 16 Jan ’06 Introduction Physics makes both general and detailed statements about the physical universe and these statements are organized in such a way that they provide a model or a kind of coherent picture about how and why the universe works the way it does. These sets of statements are called “theories” and are much more than a simple list of “facts and figures” like you might find in an almanac

From January, 2013 to December, 2013. To render this study to the conclusion, we have use the famous test of statistics. I.e. run test and ADF test to check the weak form of ISE. We have also focused on the random walk behavior of stock market of Islamabad. Because the price movement in random form, that investor could not predict the stock prices due to weak form. In weak form, no investor can get

he would later promote as pope. During the hard years of King Victor Emmanuel’s occupation of the Papal States cardinal Pecci showed his geniuses’. As a jurist and a statesman he would never ignore a problem but also never start a conflict. Leo was very successful in smoothing over difficulties, and in establishing good relations with almost all the powers. Pius IX called Pecci to Rome a year before he died and appointed him to Camerlengo. Camerlengo is the cardinal who administers the Church
