For anyone with interest in a career in financial engineering it extremely important to have a strong understanding ofthe mathematics that govern the movement of security prices.  Ruppert's book "Statistics and Data Analysis for FinancialEngineering" does an outstanding job of presenting advanced yet practical mathematics and demonstrating where suchmathematics can be used in modeling and describing the financial world in which we live.  The book possess mathematicalrigor but also has a very applied flavor in that it provides working examples of R code demonstrating many of thetechniques discussed.  It also provides problems in R to help you explore additional data sets on your own.  For themotivated student, these problems provide a way to test ones understanding of the material.  Wanting to learn thismaterial as well as possible I worked through all of the problems in the book.  This solution manual is the result ofthat process.  In it, I present my solutions to the problems and exercises from Ruppert's book.  As extractinginformation from the financial markets is an increasingly competitive game, it has become more important than ever tohave the knowledge to build the best mathematical models possible.  By understanding this material you will have taken asignificant step in that direction.
