    en.wikipedia.org/.../Degrees_of_freedom_(statistics)

    In statistics, the number of degrees of freedom is the number of values in the final calculation of a statistic that are free to vary. [1] Estimates of statistical parameters can be based upon different amounts of information or data. The number of independent pieces of information that go into the estimate of a parameter is called the degrees ...

    A mathematical symbol is a figure or a combination of figures that is used to represent a mathematical object, an action on mathematical objects, a relation between mathematical objects, or for structuring the other symbols that occur in a formula. As formulas are entirely constituted with symbols of various types, many symbols are needed for ...

    More generally, for each value of , we can calculate the corresponding likelihood. The result of such calculations is displayed in Figure 1. The result of such calculations is displayed in Figure 1. The integral of L {\textstyle {\mathcal {L}}} over [0, 1] is 1/3; likelihoods need not integrate or sum to one over the parameter space.
