Url: http://jse.amstat.org/v11n1/datasets.hays.html
Creator: Hays, Julie M.
Publisher: University of St. Thomas
Description: This article, created by Julie M. Hays of the University of St. Thomas, presents a dataset containing actual monthly data on computer usage in Best Buy stores from August 1996 to July 2000. This dataset can be used to illustrate time-series forecasting, causal forecasting, simple linear regression, unequal error variances, and variable transformation. Other key concepts include model-building and seasonal variation. This is a nice lesson as it uses real world data and applies it to basic statistical theory.
