bias

Prediction errors of 48-hour ahead MM5 forecasts of surface
temperature measured at 96 different locations in the US Pacific
Northwest on January 3, 2000. The prediction error, or "bias", is
the difference between the forecasted and observed surface
temperature. (MM5 is the fifth-generation Pennsylvania State
University -- National Center for Atmospheric Research Mesoscale
Model.)

datasets

An R software package on statistical tests widely utilized
        in biostatistics, public policy and law. Along with the well
        known tests for equality of means and variances, randomness,
        measures of relative variability etc, the package contains new
        robust tests of symmetry, omnibus and directional tests of
        normality, and their graphical counterparts such as Robust QQ
        plot; a robust trend tests for variances etc. All implemented
        tests and methods are illustrated by simulations and real-life
        examples from legal statistics, economics, and biostatistics.
