Probability and Theory of Errors
by Robert Simpson Woodward
Publisher: J. Wiley & Sons 1906
Number of pages: 64
Description:
The theory of probability and the theory of errors now constitute a formidable body of knowledge of great mathematical interest and of great practical importance. Though developed largely through applications to the more precise sciences of astronomy, geodesy, and physics, their range of applicability extends to all of the sciences.
