Abstract
This review covers some known results on tolerance limits for univariate distributions. Results for parametric continuous and discrete distributions as well as those based on nonparametric methods are included. Some general results, including those for certain restricted families of distributions are also covered. Sample size determination and related problems are discussedKeywords
