Factorial gives the book's answers, with a few differences. Where they differ, this page says why: some are misprints in the book, and for some the reason is not known yet.
Examples
Each example, and how closely Factorial gives its answers.

Misprints
Misprints found in the book, by page. Each shows what the book prints and what its own data give.
Anova sum sq: Batch·Samplep. 110
Book 25.32Data 25.30
The book gets 25.32 by subtraction from a total of 838.37 (Table 4-11); its own Appendix 4C gives the total as 838.35, and the sum of squares between samples is then 25.30, as the library finds
Ss totalp. 110
Book 838.37Data 838.36
Table 4-11 prints 838.37; Appendix 4C (p. 133) works the same total out as 838.35, which the library agrees with
Anova sum sq: Np. 334
Book 1723Data 1722
The linear contrast of the N totals, (2,408 - 2,159)^2 / 36 = 1,722.25, as the book's own mean square, 1,722, has it; it prints the sum of squares as 1,723
Not yet
Answers the book prints that Factorial cannot compute yet, by what it lacks.

- The correction for the mean, n times the mean squared (699.1²/9); the library's sums of squares are about the meanp. 521
- The uncorrected total, Σy²; the library's total is about the mean (78.48 = 78.06 + 0.42)p. 521
