The Annals of Mathematical Statistics, Vol. 43, No. 5 (Oct., 1972), pp. 1719-1726 (8 pages) Let {Xn, n ≥ 1} be a sequence of random variables such that for suitably ...

A new proof, based on the duality theorem of linear programming, is given of a theorem of V. Strassen, which states essentially that the minimum distance between random variables with given ...

A bell curve is a graph used to visualize the distribution of a set of chosen values across a specified group that tend to have central, normal values that peak, with low and high extremes tapering ...

The Monte Carlo simulation estimates the probability of different outcomes in a process that cannot easily be predicted because of the potential for random variables.
