Regression Analysis: A Hands-on Approach
****************************************************

Regression is a powerful technique for studying relationships between
quantitative variables. Summarising relationships by the most appropriate
equation (modelling) is very quick when using a statistical package. It is
also easy to progress from basic models to more complex situations, such
as comparison of regressions.
This course gives a practical introduction to regression techniques. A wide
choice of statistical software is available for practical work.
