Description
Book SynopsisThe most important properties of normal and Student t-distributions are presented. A number of applications of these properties are demonstrated. New related results dealing with the distributions of the sum, product and ratio of the independent normal and Student distributions are presented. The materials will be useful to the advanced undergraduate and graduate students and practitioners in the various fields of science and engineering.
Trade ReviewFrom the book reviews:
“The aim of this book is to study the two most important continuous distributions, normal and Student’s t distribution. It is an interesting and well-written book with very clear exposition. The material presented is very useful both for students and researchers in various fields of science. … the book is very interesting and it will be useful for those who want to study normal and Student’s t distribution.” (Miroslav M. Ristić, Mathematical Reviews, February, 2015)
