| 英文摘要 |
It is shown that the most popular posterior distribution for the mean of the normal distribution is obtained by deriving the distribution of the ratio X/Y when X and Y are normal and Student's t random variables distributed independently of each other. Tabulations of the associated percentage points are given along with a computer program for generating them. |
