// Example 2 of using Student's t
|
|
|
|
// A general guide to Student's t is at
|
|
// http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Student's_t-test
|
|
// (and many other elementary and advanced statistics texts).
|
|
// It says:
|
|
// The t statistic was invented by William Sealy Gosset
|
|
// for cheaply monitoring the quality of beer brews.
|
|
// "Student" was his pen name.
|
|
// Gosset was statistician for Guinness brewery in Dublin, Ireland,
|
|
// hired due to Claude Guinness's innovative policy of recruiting the
|
|
// best graduates from Oxford and Cambridge for applying biochemistry
|
|
// and statistics to Guinness's industrial processes.
|
|
// Gosset published the t test in Biometrika in 1908,
|
|
// but was forced to use a pen name by his employer who regarded the fact
|
|
// that they were using statistics as a trade secret.
|
|
// In fact, Gosset's identity was unknown not only to fellow statisticians
|
|
// but to his employer - the company insisted on the pseudonym
|
|
// so that it could turn a blind eye to the breach of its rules.
|
|

|
|
