Abstract
A method for calculating approxi-mate confidence limits for the coefficient of variation in gamma distributions is given. It is based on results which were obtained by Bartlett in a different context. A small table of auxiliary constants is given. To illustrate the method, confidence limits for the coefficient of variation of fiber diameter in a sample of raw Merino wool are computed.This publication has 0 references indexed in Scilit:
