... The format of the t distribution table provided in most statistics textbooks does not have sufficient detail to determine the exact p-value for a hypothesis test. However, we can still use the t distribution table to identify a range for the p-value. An advantage of computer software packages is tha ...

Understanding the t-test: why is t2 = F
... Hidden in this formula, like the animals in a puzzle picture, there are in fact three estimates of the variance of the underlying population which are unbiassed provided that the null hypothesis is true. In this case, where we have no doubts that the sample did come from the population we can estima ...
