Can anyone give me an Internet location that discusses (hopefully for download) the Yates Algorithm as it applies to DOx or Regreassion, in detail. I had this info many years ago, but it is now lost. I have tried the (all???) search engines and the most I get is a mention, but no details. Do not, please, refer me to ASQ. I prefer not to visit this particular location. Discussion papers and QE papers in particular would be appreciated.

Thanks and Best Regards,
Don

I can't give you an Internet location, but "Design of Experiments" by Donald Hicks has this discussion in it. I don't have a copy of it any more, but I remember (don't ask me why) this discussion being there. If I may ask, why do you need to know about this? It's been a looooooooooonnnnnnnnnnggggggggggg time since anyone has asked about this!!

Thanks Roger for the book reference and yes, you may ask. There is a nice young lady I have been trying to help with her CQE exam (by e-mail mostly), and Yates appeared on an exam question (Taken this past Dec.). While I do not expect this question to ever appear in any REAL related work, I would like to explore it further (personal, not professional). Therefore, the reason behind by request. And, by the way, it has been a really looooooooooonnnnnnnnnnggggggggggg time for me also. I AM LOST with regards to this topic.

Thanx,
Don
