Recall Exercise 6.3 based on 100 measurements of the speed of light in air. Use empirical likelihood to construct a 90% confidence interval for the mean and median.
Go to the NIST link below to download 100 measurements of the speed of light in air. This classic experiment was carried out by a U.S. Naval Academy teacher Albert Michelson is 1879. Do the data appear to be normally distributed? Use three tests (Kolmogorov. Anderson-Darling, Shapiro-Wilk) and compare answers.
