| Abstract: | This work is concerned with the distributions of spacings from a two-parameter gamma distribution, when the shape parameter is a positive integer (or Erlang Distribution). We express the probability density functions of spacings and their moments in closed forms that are easy to implement using computer algebra systems like Mathematica. |
