S2 OCR Textbook

Is it just me or are all answers for Chapter 4 (Sampling) wrong?

I had a look on amazon and a reviewer said the same thing... something about interpolation..

Well, I'm not sure, but those books are awful! We tried to use them for S2 and got nowhere fast! It's riddled with errors and typos, so I wouldn't doubt yourself too much.

these books do have a few wrong answers in the back, but not THAT many.

post a few questions which you think may have wrong answers, and i'll see if i've done them and give you the answer i got.

bear in mind i haven't actually got the s2 textbook anymore, just my notes so i wont' have done every question...

Thanks Jonas.

And yes, the OCR textbooks are AWFUL.

so has anyone got any recommendations for an S2 textbook to work from? (OCR Syllabus)

Apart from the mistakes, i found the s2 ocr book quite useful, i learnt the whole course from it. The books tend to get a little poorer the higher the module...otherwise i think the OCR book is the only textbook on the OCR syllabus. There are revision guides but they are even worse.
