Abstract
Summary: Recent work on the mean, median, mode inequality and skewness for unimodal continuous distributions is discussed with reference to the properties of totally positive kernels. These properties also give simple conditions which are sufficient for the inequality and which include the characterization of the Pearson family.Keywords
