This article addresses a gap in many, if not all, introductory mathematical statistics textbooks, namely, transforming a random variable so that it better mimics a normal distribution. Virtually all ...

This paper deals with the order statistics from the normal distribution. Equations are obtained for the percentage points and the modal values of the kth order statistic in a sample of size n. Table I ...

The t-distribution (or Student's t-distribution) has similarities to the normal distribution in shape, but with heavier tails. This applet allows users to drag a slider to change the degrees of ...
