  2. Sample size determination - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sample_size_determination

    The table shown on the right can be used in a two-sample t-test to estimate the sample sizes of an experimental group and a control group that are of equal size, that is, the total number of individuals in the trial is twice that of the number given, and the desired significance level is 0.05.

  3. Drag coefficient - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Drag_coefficient

    Drag coefficients in fluids with Reynolds number approximately 10 4 [1] [2] Shapes are depicted with the same projected frontal area. In fluid dynamics, the drag coefficient (commonly denoted as: , or ) is a dimensionless quantity that is used to quantify the drag or resistance of an object in a fluid environment, such as air or water.

  4. Four fours - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Four_fours

    Now, we can rewrite the base (1/2) with only 4s and the exponent (1/2) back to a square root: = / ⁡ ⁡ ⏟ We have used four fours and now the number of square roots we add equals whatever non-negative integer we wanted.

  5. p-value - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/P-value

    If we consider every outcome that has equal or lower probability than "3 heads 3 tails" as "at least as extreme", then the p-value is exactly / However, suppose we have planned to simply flip the coin 6 times no matter what happens, then the second definition of p -value would mean that the p -value of "3 heads 3 tails" is exactly 1.

  6. Chi-squared distribution - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chi-squared_distribution

    Just as extreme values of the normal distribution have low probability (and give small p-values), extreme values of the chi-squared distribution have low probability. An additional reason that the chi-squared distribution is widely used is that it turns up as the large sample distribution of generalized likelihood ratio tests (LRT). [ 8 ]

  7. Rounding - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rounding

    For example, 1.6 would be rounded to 1 with probability 0.4 and to 2 with probability 0.6. Stochastic rounding can be accurate in a way that a rounding function can never be. For example, suppose one started with 0 and added 0.3 to that one hundred times while rounding the running total between every addition.

  8. Percentage - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Percentage

    However the titles of bonds issued by governments and other issuers use the fractional form, e.g. "3 + 1 ⁄ 2 % Unsecured Loan Stock 2032 Series 2". (When interest rates are very low, the number 0 is included if the interest rate is less than 1%, e.g. "0 + 3 ⁄ 4 % Treasury Stock", not "3 ⁄ 4 % Treasury Stock".) It is also widely accepted ...

  9. Scale (map) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scale_(map)

    A graphical or bar scale. A map would also usually give its scale numerically ("1:50,000", for instance, means that one cm on the map represents 50,000cm of real space, which is 500 meters) A bar scale with the nominal scale expressed as "1:600 000", meaning 1 cm on the map corresponds to 600,000 cm=6 km on the ground.
