Preface

Any institutional education would not be completed if it were confined within

theoretical aspects. Every branch of education has become more competed
by their practical application and accomplishment of full knowledge. We shall
be benefited by our education if we can effectively apply the institutional
education in practical fields. Hence, we all need practical education to apply
theoretical knowledge in real world. By considering this importance “faculty
of economics” arranges the Quantitative Methods in Economic Analysis
courses for the students of Masters in International Economics and Finance.
As a part of this program my topic was selected as “A relation between the
number of wilsdcats drilled and three key factors: price at the wellhead,
domestic output and GNP constant dollars.”)”

I tried my best to conduct an effective study by arrange and analysis data.

There may be some mistakes, which are truly unintentional. So, I would
request to look at the matter with merciful mind.
