PROBLEMS
I. Steps for Solution for Problems
A. Discrete Data Problems 1.1-1.5 and 1.11
1. Plot percent failures on normal and Weibull paper to estimate Parameters and a graphical check on the computer and conversions
of Weibull parameters.
2. Perform computer runs
3. Plot bar charts with Weibull, Gaussian, and percent failure curve on
a single page. Partition using Sturges Rule.
4. Plot data and Weibull and Gaussian curves on semilog paper for
reliability (1% failure) and select best representation.
Bar Data Problems 1.6-1.10 and 1.12
The same steps but Sturges Rules is used to calculate how many separate
bars there should be.
