Indoor natatoriums or swimming pools are noted for their poor acustic properties. The goal is to design a pool such that the average time that it takes low-frequencies sound to die is at most 1.3 seconds with standard deviation of at most .6 second. Computer simulations of a preliminary design are conducted to see whether these standards are exceeded. These data are obtained on the time required for a low- frequency sound to die: Data: 1.8, 3.7, 5.0, 5.3, 6.1,...
