Zusatztext Praise for the First Edition:"? the book has a chance of becoming a highly valued practitioner's reference ?"-"The book is sequentially organized and well structured and many chapters are self-contained. It includes many useful results that are handy for students and practitioners alike....I must say! it is a very useful and handy book for commonly used probability distributions! a one-stop shop! ...this is a valuable contribution to [the] scientific community! providing up-to-date coverage on probability distributions and their applications in a systematic fashion. I would like to see this book on my desk! -S.E. Ahmed! Technometrics! July 2016Journal of the Royal Statistical Society"I recommend the StatCalc software as a useful quick way to obtain and/or check (relative) simple statistical calculations! and the book as its accompanying manual ? many statisticians might find StatCalc a handy addition to their computer desktops! particularly (in my case) with teaching in mind!"-M.C. Jones! Journal of Applied Statistics! January 2008"? recommended to statistical practitioners who need a comprehensive yet brief reference on statistical distributions with applications."-Brian Wiens! The American Statistician! November 2007"Quite simply! this book is a masterwork. ? an essential resource for anyone who models data! or creates applications that require reference to or make use of statistical distribution functions or random variable sampling/generation. The accompanying PC program is a true application in its own right: neat! tidy! and very! very useful. To have this and the book represents a unique reference work. ? easily understandable by undergraduate as well as graduate scientists and statisticians ? an essential part of the toolkit for professionals working in the quantitative sciences ? a remarkable achievement for the author who so obviously has taken great care over many years to assemble and perfect the software and reference work. This is a book worthy of a prize."-Paul Barrett! University of Auckland! New Zealand ". . . the notes on implementation of distributions will be valuable to users seeking efficient ways to model or find the inverse of a wide range of distributions . . . this is a fairly comprehensive reference guide! well organized and with an authoritative style and many examples."-Mark Pilling!

Klappentext This handbook provides quick access to common and specialized probability distributions for modeling practical problems and performing statistical calculations. This second edition enhances the PC calculator StatCalc with electronic help manuals and now contains R functions for cases where StatCalc is not applicable, with the codes available online. This edition also presents major changes in binomial, Poisson, normal, gamma, Weibull, exponential, logistic, Laplace, and Pareto distributions and updates statistical tests and intervals based on recent publications in statistical journals. Zusammenfassung Easy-to-Use Reference and Software for Statistical Modeling and Testing Handbook of Statistical Distributions with Applications, Second Edition provides quick access to common and specialized probability distributions for modeling practical problems and performing statistical calculations. Along with many new examples and results, this edition includes both the author’s StatCalc ...
