  2. Wallis product - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wallis_product

    Wallis derived this infinite product using interpolation, though his method is not regarded as rigorous. A modern derivation can be found by examining ∫ 0 π sin n ⁡ x d x {\displaystyle \int _{0}^{\pi }\sin ^{n}x\,dx} for even and odd values of n {\displaystyle n} , and noting that for large n {\displaystyle n} , increasing n ...

  3. Wallis' integrals - Wikipedia

    In mathematics, and more precisely in analysis, the Wallis integrals constitute a family of integrals introduced by John Wallis. Definition, basic properties [ edit ]

  4. Kruskal–Wallis test - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kruskal–Wallis_test

    The parametric equivalent of the Kruskal–Wallis test is the one-way analysis of variance (ANOVA). A significant Kruskal–Wallis test indicates that at least one sample stochastically dominates one other sample. The test does not identify where this stochastic dominance occurs or for how many pairs of groups stochastic dominance obtains.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Infinity_symbol

    The lemniscate has been a common decorative motif since ancient times; for instance, it is commonly seen on Viking Age combs. [4]The English mathematician John Wallis is credited with introducing the infinity symbol with its mathematical meaning in 1655, in his De sectionibus conicis.

  8. Calculus - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Calculus

    Calculus is also used to find approximate solutions to equations; in practice, it is the standard way to solve differential equations and do root finding in most applications. Examples are methods such as Newton's method, fixed point iteration, and linear approximation.

  9. Van der Waerden test - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Van_der_Waerden_test

    The Kruskal-Wallis test is based on the ranks of the data. The advantage of the Van Der Waerden test is that it provides the high efficiency of the standard ANOVA analysis when the normality assumptions are in fact satisfied, but it also provides the robustness of the Kruskal-Wallis test when the normality assumptions are not satisfied.
