STANDARDIZATION OF EXPRESSIONS FOR ACCURACY, HALLERT
The following alternatives have been received:
From Prof. P. L. Baetslé, Belgium,
instead of “théorème central sur les limites” - “théorème de somme”,
instead of “loi de propagation des erreurs” - “loi des moments”,
instead of “valeur moyenne quadratique” - “valeur compensée”,
instead of “erreur de mise au point” - “valeur de pointé”.
From Prof. H. Kasper, Switzerland,
instead of “Gewichtskoeffizient” - “Korrelationskoeffizient”.
From Dr. H. Schmid, U.S.A.,
instead of “weight number” - “propagation number”.
From Mr. F. Doyle, U.S.A,,
instead of “weight number” - “variance”,
instead of “correlation number” - “co-variance”.
It seems desirable that the terms be definitely decided by a commission of represent-
atives of the different languages.
