Appendices

The appendices are quick-access tools and technical references that support the main chapters. They are designed for efficient lookup: choose methods faster, access lecture slides and teaching bundles, use optional R workflows when needed, and retrieve distribution tables without interrupting analysis flow.

How This Part Is Structured

Appendix	Purpose
Method Selection Guide	Fast path from research purpose to appropriate methods
Presentations and Teaching Materials	Index of lecture slides, teaching bundles, labs, and exercises
R Language Essentials Used in This Handbook	Optional R patterns for users who want script-based workflows
Matrix Algebra Primer	Linear algebra concepts used in modeling chapters
Standard Normal / t / Chi-squared Tables	Lookup references for classical inferential computations

How To Use It

Start with Appendix A — Method Selection Guide when you need a decision shortcut.
Use the presentations appendix when preparing or revising lectures.
Use the other appendices as targeted references while reading the main text; they are not prerequisites for Shiny-first usage.
