Baseball batting averages, IQ scores, the length of time a long distance telephone call lasts, the amount of money a person carries, the length of time a computer chip lasts, and SAT scores are just a few. The field of reliability depends on a variety of continuous random variables. In this chapter and the next, we will study the uniform distribution, the exponential distribution, and the normal distribution.
