A nonparametric alternative to the two-sample t-test.

A primality test that provides an efficient probabilistic algorithm for determining if a given number is prime. It is based on the properties of strong pseudoprimes. The ...

A test for determining the probability that a given result could not have occurred by chance (its significance).

The limit test, also sometimes known as the nth term test, says that if lima_n!=0 or this limit does not exist as n tends to infinity, then the series suma_n does not ...

A statistical test in which assumptions are made about the underlying distribution of observed data.

The Wilcoxon test statistic is equivalent to the T_+ statistic in the Wilcoxon signed rank test (Kanji 1999).

A test which always identifies prime numbers correctly, but may incorrectly identify a composite number as a prime.

The compositeness test consisting of the application of Fermat's little theorem.

Let u_k be a series with positive terms and suppose rho=lim_(k->infty)(u_(k+1))/(u_k). Then 1. If rho<1, the series converges. 2. If rho>1 or rho=infty, the series diverges. ...

Let sumu_k be a series with positive terms and let f(x) be the function that results when k is replaced by x in the formula for u_k. If f is decreasing and continuous for ...
