Lecture & Exercises for Thu September 12

Thu Sept 5 I went through various aspects of Section 2.1, including prior construction and prior elicitation, as well as general matters pertaining to Bayesian inference and the "Master Recipe" (cf. Nils Exercise #2).

For Thu Sept 12 I will go on to Sections 2.2 and 2.3, but the first of our three hours then will be devoted to discussion of exercises. First we (perhaps briefly) go through Exercises 1, 2, 3 from Ch 1. Then we do Nils Exercises 12 and 14(a), where you in the latter exercise ought to use results and the simulation recipe from Exercise 13. Finally, we do Exercise 19 from Ch 2.
