R. A. Fisher,In our Pearson to Gosset to Fisher chapter we left our historical account at Gossett’s 1908 paper on what later became, at R. A. Fisher’s suggestion, the Student .-distribution. We illustrated the distribution in its final form, as clarified by Fisher in 1925.

Principal Components and Factor Analysis,In Chapter 10 on correlation and regression we used an example of the numbers of runs scored in the 1975 and 1976 seasons by American League baseball clubs. The data were shown in Table 10–1 and the correlation was 0.63. Figure 17-1 shows the data plotted as a scatter diagram in standardized units.

That example led to a set of probabilities for the possible lengths of the series. When the events of concern in an uncertain situation are numerical and we have ob

Regression and Correlation,an he expressed as ., where . is the sales for the month. If no sales occur, . = 0 and . = $2000; if sales are $20,000, then . = $2000 + 0.05($20,000) = $3000. What we have here is a mathematical relationship expressing an agreement about compensation.
