Abstract: | It is shown that Greenwood's statistic for uniformity and the Hahn-Shapiro and Stephens statistics for exponentiality with known origin are equivalent. It is also shown that the distribution of the Shapiro-Wilk statistic for testing the hypothesis of exponentiality with unknown origin is obtainable from the distribution of Greenwood's statistic. |
