This book is essentially a revision/second edition of Statistics for Engineering Problem Solving by Vardeman that won the American Society for Engineering Education 1994 Meriam/Wiley Distinguished Author Award.
The book has answers for end-of-section exercises. All datasets in the book are on the web page in digital form. Chapter formula sheets are on the web page. The text's solutions manual for the end-of-chapter exercises is currently being processed for posting and will appear in due course. And there are plans under way to produce and post a supplement giving R code and output for the book's examples.
