Statistics Tables for the 21st Century
Online statistics tables provide are accurate and user-friendly - a welcome change
from traditional statistics tables buried in appendices of introductory statistics
texts.
Take the Drudgery Out of Statistical Tabless
Finding probabilities from statistics tables has never been easier. This site
features online statistics tables for each of the following nine distributions:
binomial, chi-square, f distribution, hypergeometric, multinomial,
negative binomial (and geometric), normal, Poisson, and t distribution.
You can link to any of these tools from the table below.
Or you can link to the online statistics tables from the Stat Tables tab,
which appears in the header of every Stat Trek web page.
Each online tool features clear instructions, answers
to frequently-asked questions, and sample problems with solutions;
so you won't lose time getting up to speed.
A Brief History of Statistical Tables
Back in the 20th century, researchers relied on dense, hard-to-read tables
to find probabilities associated with different sampling distributions.
Typically, these tables were
hidden in appendices at the back of statistics texts, and obtaining
information was tedious. It involved aligning rows and columns to find the
particular cell of the table that held the information you wanted. In the worst
case, you had to interpolate. Human error was rampant.
Time marches on ... Today, in the 21st century, everything is better. No more thumbing through
textbooks to find the statistical table you need. No more hard-to-read tables.
No more interpolation. With Stat Trek's online statistical tables, the
information you need is just a mouse click away.
