An "anomaly"? Where do you get that? An anomaly is something that is unusual or unexpected. One non-working camera out of 24 cameras on display would not be considered to be something unusual or unexpected in a Best Buy. In fact, nospam is vigorously arguing that non-functional display models *would be* expected.Eric StevensSandmanEric StevensYou haven't studied statistics or probability have you?That one body part had a headache at the time of your one visit does not mean that it always has has a headache (or 'malfunctioning' as you describe it).Sandman
That's *EXACTLY* my point, Eric! The data is worthless as statistics.
Rubbish.
Tony found one anomaly when checking 24 items one time, and treated it as statistics - you just agreed with me that it doesn't mean anything since it says nothing about the state of anomalies in a statistical manner.
