Suppose your data consist of a sequence of numbers. To apply a runs test for randomness about the median, what process do you use to convert the numbers into two distinct symbols?

For Problems 3-10, please provide the following information.

(a) What is the level of significance? State the null and alternate hypotheses.

(b) Find the sample test statistic R, the number of runs.

(c) Find the upper and lower critical values in Table 10 of Appendix II.

(d) Conclude the test.

(e) Interpret the conclusion in the context of the application.
