Eyes Glazing Over
My eyes completely glazed over in looking at Steven Miller’s (pdf) applicaton of the Weibull distribution.
I’m not a mathematician, so maybe someone here can do the honors. How does Miller compare to the Tango Distribution (zip file). And, to PythagenPat? Maybe it’s just me, but I prefer more layspeak, like Professor Ben Vollmayr-Lee does here. There’s a reason for that, and a reason that governments mandate that english-friendly prospectus of investment and credit card accounts are provided, in addition to lawyer-speak terms and conditions. If only 1% of the population can understand what you are trying to say, the other 99% are shutout from understanding you, and, more importantly, discovering the problems with what you just said.
