This data article contains the statistical analysis of Igbo personal names and a sample of randomly selected of such names. This was presented as the following: 1). A simple random sampling of some Igbo personal names and their respective gender associated with each name. 2). The distribution of the vowels, consonants and letters of alphabets of the personal names. 3). The distribution of name ...

Consider independent and identically distributed random variables {Xnk, 1 ≤ k ≤ m, n ≥ 1} from the Pareto distribution. We randomly select two adjacent order statistics from each row, Xn(i) and Xn(i+1), where 1 ≤ i ≤m− 1. Then, we test to see whether or not strong and weak laws of large numbers with nonzero limits for weighted sums of the random variables Xn(i+1)/Xn(i) exist, where we place a p...

A group of 215 men and 272 women aged 62 to 90 forming a randomly-selected sample of the older population was studied by cardiovascular survey methods and followed for 5 years. The 5-year mortality of 28 per cent was related to age and was higher in men. Ischaemic heart disease was the certified cause of 28 per cent of the deaths. Mortality was greater in those with systolic hypertension. Among...

INTRODUCTION The aim of the study was to compare the dietary habits of recreational runners with those of a random sample of the general population. We also wanted to determine the influence of gender, age and sports performance of recreational runners on their basic diet and compliance with recommendations in sports nutrition. METHODS The study population consisted of 1,212 adult Slovenian r...

A common assumption made by cognitive models is that lexical semantics can be approximated using randomly generated representations to stand in for word meaning. However, the use of random representations contains the hidden assumption that semantic similarity across randomly selected words is normally distributed. We evaluated this assumption by computing similarity distributions for randomly ...
