Abstract

Abstract For a few values drawn independently at random from a nonnegative population, I present what I have found to be an effective nonparametric method of one-sided inference for the population mean. The method is based on a martingale argument and use of the Markov inequality. Key Words: MartingaleSmall samplePopulation mean
