Pendulum

Period and pendulum length for a number of string and mass pendulums
constructed by physics students. The same mass was used throughout, but the
length of the string was varied from 10cm to 16 m.

Data sets and utilities to accompany the second edition of
"Foundations and Applications of Statistics: an Introduction
using R" (R Pruim, published by AMS, 2017), a text covering
topics from probability and mathematical statistics at an advanced
undergraduate level.  R is integrated throughout, and access to all
the R code in the book is provided via the snippet() function.
