Broken link in book (typical fix)

David

Sometimes we get emails about broken links. For example, maybe someone follows a link and it goes to:

www.openintro.org/d?file_wtd_mean

That is not a valid URL. Is the link broken?

In about 70% of cases where a link doesn't work, it is that a non-standard PDF reader was being used and caused the link to be malformed. In the other ~30% of cases, the link redirect works and goes to the proper destination, but that final page might have gotten taken down (please report these, because we can find a replacement -- and usually retroactively fix it for everyone because we use link redirects).

Thanks,
David

Hello,

I tried to open the video "8.2 - Detailed Overview: Fitting a least squares regression line" and it took me to this link: https://www.openintro.org/go/?id=video_stat_linear_regression_fitting_least_squares_line_os4_detailed&referrer=/book/os/index.php which is not working

Thanks for reporting, Ricardo! I've now fixed that broken link.

Cheers,
David
