1. From the table the sum column, it can be concluded that Introduction course
is the course mostly taken by the customers, there are 144 customers
participating in this course.
2. After using the Select Case to select cases which the condition of Intro=1.
The following table is obtained. It can be seen that SW is the course mostly
taken with the Introduction course. There are 35 people taking both

Number of people taking in SW can be obtained from the table in question 1

Lift ratio= 0.22 =1.09525

5. Basing on the lift ratio of 1.09525 is slightly higher than 1, suggesting that
the association is rule is not effective because although there is some degree
of association between the Introduction and SW course, the relation is not
much higher than would be expected if the two are independent.
