Summary

• If you're faced with a hypothesis testing problem, the Tables for the Use of Range and Studentized Range in Tests of Hypotheses offers a simple, powerful, and interesting approach to solving this problem.
• This volume presents an introduction to the use of order statistics and describes various inference-related problems and their applications. The role of order statistics in solving these problems is examined, several important statistics are introduced, and their rise in addressing testing of hypothesis problems is highlighted. The book also includes numerous tables that facilitate the methods of hypothesis testing using order statistics.
• Features enhanced by numerous practical examples throughout the text; includes theory and tables based on both range and studentized range of samples from a normal population; contains the theory and tables needed for range-based multiple comparison tests; and covers many other applications including testing for equality of variances, detection of outliers, quality control, and much more.
