CRC standard probability and Statistics tables and formulae


The purpose of this book is to provide a modern set of tables and a com- prehensive list of definitions, concepts, theorems, and formulae in probability and statistics. While the numbers in these tables have not changed since they were first computed (in some cases, several hundred years ago), the presenta- tion format here is modernized. In addition, nearly all table values have been re-computed to ensure accuracy. Almost every table is presented along with a textual description and at least one example using a value from the table. Most concepts are illustrated with examples and step-by-step solutions. Several data sets are described in this chapter; they are used in this book in order for users to be able to check algorithms. The emphasis of this book is on what is often called basic statistics. Most real-world statistics users will be able to refer to this book in order to quickly verify a formula, definition, or theorem. In addition, the set of tables here should make this a complete statistics reference tool. Some more advanced useful and current topics, such as Brownian motion and decision theory are also included.
