The form above can be used to collect a "random sample" from all of the residents of Ashland, Bayfield, or Ashland & Bayfield counties in 1990. This database consists of three variables -- Race; Sex; and Age (full years attained). The information on these populations came from the 1990 U.S. Census. A summary of the population is here.
To collect a sample choose a county, choose a sample size (n), and press the SAMPLE button. The value of each variable measured on a random sample of n individuals will be shown in the output box. You can highlight the data you want, copy it (CTRL-C), and paste it into another program. Because this is not a research grade simulation, I have limited n to 200. You must be PATIENT if you choose an n > 75 or so.
Goto this simulator if you would like to compute the summary statistics for multiple samples from this population more efficiently.
