Simple Random Sampling Notes

The notes on simple random sampling (Lecture 2) are posted here. The Horvitz-Thompson material from Lecture 1, with some edits, appears at the end of these notes, though I doubt we'll get to them tomorrow.

The notes are a bit more technical than I'd intended, but most of this material should be familiar (aside maybe from finite population corrections). Some background references on finite probability are in the footnotes, but this really should be stuff that you know. (I remain eternally optimistic.)

There will be no class on Monday January 11. The next class will be on Wednesday January 13.
