One of the simplest pivotal quantities is the z-score.Given a normal distribution with mean and variance , and an observation 'x', the z-score: =, has distribution (,) – a normal distribution with mean 0 and variance 1.
The Marshall-Edgeworth index, credited to Marshall (1887) and Edgeworth (1925), [11] is a weighted relative of current period to base period sets of prices. This index uses the arithmetic average of the current and based period quantities for weighting.
Conversely, given i.i.d. normal variables with known mean 1 and unknown variance σ 2, the sample mean ¯ is not an ancillary statistic of the variance, as the sampling distribution of the sample mean is N(1, σ 2 /n), which does depend on σ 2 – this measure of location (specifically, its standard error) depends on dispersion.

Data analysis is a process for obtaining raw data, and subsequently converting it into information useful for decision-making by users. [1] Data is collected and analyzed to answer questions, test hypotheses, or disprove theories. [11] Statistician John Tukey, defined data analysis in 1961, as:
Process Decision Program Chart (PDPC) is a technique designed to help prepare contingency plans.The emphasis of the PDPC is to identify the consequential impact of failure on activity plans, and create appropriate contingency plans to limit risks.
ISO 31-0 is the introductory part of international standard ISO 31 on quantities and units.It provides guidelines for using physical quantities, quantity and unit symbols, and coherent unit systems, especially the SI.
The Cramér–Rao bound [9] [10] states that the inverse of the Fisher information is a lower bound on the variance of any unbiased estimator of θ. Van Trees (1968) and Frieden (2004) provide the following method of deriving the Cramér–Rao bound, a result which describes use of the Fisher information.
