Talk:Log-normal distribution
|
Hello. I have changed the intro from "log-normal distributions" to "log-normal distribution". I do understand the notion that, for each pair of values (mu, sigma), it is a different distribution. However, common parlance is to call all the members of a parametric family by a collective name -- normal distribution, beta distribution, exponential distribution, .... In each case these terms denote a family of distributions. This causes no misunderstandings, and I see no advantage in abandoning that convention. Happy editing, Wile E.
