Univariate Distributions: One Variable, One Sample
Overview
This chapter introduces statistics in the simplest possible setting—the distribution of values for one variable. The Distribution command in the Analyze menu launches the JMP Distribution platform. This platform describes the distribution of a single column of values from a table using graphs and summary statistics.
This chapter also introduces the concept of the distribution of a statistic, and how confidence intervals and hypothesis tests can be obtained.
