Illustrations are given of how a binomial sample-size table of limited scope can be used to address a wider range of problems. Necessary sample sizes for binomial differences not specifically covered ...

We have previously discussed the importance of estimating uncertainty in our measurements and incorporating it into data analysis 1. To know the extent to which we can generalize our observations, we ...

Estimation of the parameters of the truncated negative binomial distribution with the first two sample moments and the frequency in the first class is computationally very efficient in most practical ...

When particles in a sample are the same size, one particle can be measured to report the result. If the sample has a narrow distribution, such as 10-25 µm, then measurement of just a few particles can ...
