## Instructions

Submit your solutions via [Gradescope](https://www.gradescope.com/courses/946202). In-person submissions will not be entertained. Please upload a single PDF file. Late submissions are accepted for up to 3 days, with a penalty of 10\% of the total marks for each day (or part of a day) late (deadlines 11:59 PM IST): by Wed 21 Oct, $-10\%$; by Thu 22 Oct, $-20\%$; by Fri 23 Oct, $-30\%$. Submissions after 11:59 PM (IST), Friday 23 October, 2026 will not be graded. You can raise your questions related to the assignment on [Piazza](https://piazza.com/iit_bombay/fall2026/dh801) - please tag these as `assignment_01`.

- Your final submission has to be the PDF that comes from this template - one single pdf. No Exceptions.
- Please mention the name(s) of people, including your LLM friends, with whom you collaborated and what exactly you discussed.
- **LLM prompts are required.** If you used an LLM (ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini, Copilot, ...) for any question, paste the exact prompt(s) you used under that question's answer. Unattributed LLM use, or LLM use without the prompts, will be graded zero.
- There are no partial marks for coding questions. For theory questions, show your reasoning; a bare final answer gets no credit.
- Wherever a question says **"by hand"**, you may use R as a calculator (`sum`, `rank`, `pnorm`, matrix algebra, ...) but not the test/model function being asked about (`wilcox.test`, `binom.test`, `t.test`, `lm`, ...). Use those functions only to check your answer.

**Making your submission:** Open this template in RStudio (you will need Quarto installed). Once you are done with your answers, use the "Render" button to create a pdf. You can also use Python or any other language, but there is no template; if you do, your submission must include both the code and the pdf.

## Disclaimer

This problem is a statistics exercise about how to evaluate a claim made with data. It is **not** an investigation of JEE Advanced 2026, and it makes no allegation or finding about the conduct or integrity of the examination, its organisers, or any candidate.

- The claim quoted below is taken from a [public post on X](https://x.com/Ananya1669/status/2063473819587891653) and is used only as a prompt. It does not represent the views of the instructor, the course, or IIT Bombay.
- The marks come from a rank list circulated publicly online. They have **not** been obtained from, or verified by, the organising institutes, and may contain errors. No conclusion from this exercise should be presented as a statement about the actual examination.
- Candidates are identified only by rank. Do not attempt to identify any individual.
- Please do not post your answers publicly or present them as an analysis by, or endorsed by, this course or the Institute.
