DESCRIPTION:Bootstrap in practice\n\nThis talk focuses on three practical a
 spects of resampling: communication\, accuracy\, and software. I'll introd
 uce the bootstrap and permutation tests\, and discussed how they may be us
 ed to help clients understand statistical results. I'll talk about accurac
 y -- there are dramatic differences in how accurate different bootstrap me
 thods are. Surprisingly\, the most common bootstrap methods are less accur
 ate than classical methods for small samples\, and more accurate for large
 r samples. There are simple variations that dramatically improve the accur
 acy. Finally\, I'll compare two R packages\, the the easy-to-use 'resample
 ' package\, and the more-powerful 'boot' package.\n
