Question:
6.5 Suppose the data are a random sample of size n from the uniform distribution between 0 and θ, θ>0. Show that the ML estimate of θ is the largest data value. (Hint: Differentiation of the score function does not work for this problem!) Find the posterior mean of θ, assuming a uniform prior distribution for θ. Which of these estimators do you prefer for this problem and why?
