Abstract

Scientists frequently wish to determine whether an observed distribution of data is consistent with some theoretical distribution. For example, is a given set of data normally distributed, or is a given set of data "uniformly" distributed among various categories? A statistical tool for investigating these questions is the Chi-Square statistic.
