// Example 1 of using Student's t

// http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Student's_t-test  says:
// The t statistic was invented by William Sealy Gosset
// for cheaply monitoring the quality of beer brews.
// "Student" was his pen name.
// WS Gosset was statistician for Guinness brewery in Dublin, Ireland,
// hired due to Claude Guinness's innovative policy of recruiting the
// best graduates from Oxford and Cambridge for applying biochemistry
// and statistics to Guinness's industrial processes.
// Gosset published the t test in Biometrika in 1908,
// but was forced to use a pen name by his employer who regarded the fact
// that they were using statistics as a trade secret.
// In fact, Gosset's identity was unknown not only to fellow statisticians
// but to his employer - the company insisted on the pseudonym
// so that it could turn a blind eye to the breach of its rules.

// Data for this example from:
// P.K.Hou, O. W. Lau & M.C. Wong, Analyst (1983) vol. 108, p 64.
// from Statistics for Analytical Chemistry, 3rd ed. (1994), pp 54-55

// Determination of mercury by cold-vapour atomic absorption,

double standard = 38.9;

double value[values] = {38.9, 37.4, 37.1};
