All Implemented Interfaces:

IExperiment, Pluginable, java.awt.event.ActionListener, java.awt.event.ItemListener, java.awt.event.MouseListener, java.awt.event.MouseMotionListener, java.awt.event.WindowListener, java.awt.image.ImageObserver, java.awt.MenuContainer, java.io.Serializable, java.util.EventListener, javax.accessibility.Accessible, javax.swing.event.ChangeListener, javax.swing.RootPaneContainer

public class Uniform_E_EstimateExperiment
extends EstimateExperiment
implements java.io.Serializable

This class models the point estimation problem associated with the Uniform distribuiton on the interval [0, 1]. This class implements an exercise proposed by Gnedenko (1978; p. 194) that shows that, if X1, X2, X3, . . . are IID Uniform(0, l), if S = \sum_{i=1}^{n} {Xi},and if U is the minimum value of n for which S > 1 , then E(U) = e (~2.7182....).
