Re-ordering the sections

The article currently has the example section sandwiched in between The testing process section and Definition of terms section, which I think is a little bit off. I think it would be helpful for the reader if the example section is ordered after the Common test statistic section.Happyboi2489 (talk) 15:37, 7 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Common test statistics

I corrected the erroneous last test, ("regression t-test") to a correct F-test. Harald Lang, 2015-11-29.

History

I looked at the inline cited article by Zarbell and in no way does it say that Fisher started as a Bayesian. Bayes is not mentioned at all. Bayesian was not really an school within statistics until the 1950s. That part of the sentence should be removed. Mcsmom (talk) 20:38, 8 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]
