- Summary:
- Poisson Distribution Tables -- a favored mathematical model for determining the probable number of outcomes -- are now even more useful. Longtime quality professional, inventor, and consultant John J. Heldt introduces two new tables (available only in this book) with the Poisson terms rearranged for further ease of estimation. Heldt's two variations on the tables yield these results: estimations of product Mean Time Between Failures (MTBFs) based on life tests, plus development of the Operating Characteristic Curves for Life testing.
