I really, really, really wish that statistics professors and textbooks would _pick a damn symbol and stick with it_!

This is as bad as the math proof class I took as a CS undergrad. Stop skipping stops, stop explaining tho parts that are _not_ confusing, and stop putting in random irrelevancies to try to amuse us. Not amused when your attempts at wit only serve to derail my train of thought! Seriously!

Graa. At least I had a good intentional (and based on the number of stupid mistakes in homework & exam, _needed_) break from my stats class for the weekend! Good weekend, it was. Muchly so!

As someone who routinely has to decipher various and sundry statistics books for my students, I can offer a fresh pair of eyes if you get stuck.

Appreciate the offer, but as the class itself in online, additional online help not so helpful. Also, not enough brain to try to explain why I'm confused. :)

Oh, but do you have any suggestions for psych stats textbooks that are actually _good_? (all of what I complained about above was the _textbook_, and only sometimes also the prof)
