I had a bit of trouble actually getting the code as written in the assignment to run proper. I did a quick edit and did this to get a value to make sure it was working as intended. Copying the code from the module instructions I get this as a result after several attempts to run. 

It looks like the program when it executes myMean is always supposed to do the calculation sum/length for the values in assignment2 but attempting to call myMean after doesn't result in anything either. I come from a coding background in Python and Java, two other object oriented programming languages. I could be interpreting or running it wrong due to prior bias/knowledge.

  A. Consider a population consisting of the following values, which represents the number of ice cream purchases during the academic year for each of the five housemates. 8, 14, 16, 10, 11 a. Compute the mean of this population.  11.8 b. Select a random sample of size 2 out of the five members.  8 and 14 c. Compute the mean and standard deviation of your sample.  11 d. Compare the Mean and Standard deviation of your sample to the entire population of this set (8,14, 16, 10, 11). Mean of sample is less then mean of population. standard deviation is smaller as well.  Suppose that the sample size  n  = 100 and the population proportion  p  = 0.95. Does the sample proportion  p  have approximately a normal distribution? yes Since p = .95, q = .05.  p * n = .95 * 100 = 95 q * n = .05 * 100 = 5 What is the smallest value of  n  for which the sampling distribution of  p  is approximately normal?   6 beca...
