Shadyside Data

We will continue to treat the Shadyside data set as a sample. It actually contains all houses that were sold in Shadyside, PA. However, in statistics it is often usefull to treat a collection of all available observations as sample, not as population. (This is the case when we want to do inference, something we will learn about later).
