But the way you asked the question initially didn't include any mention of whether or not you were performing these types of computations in MATLAB, which is why us suggested you seek out a statistics-related newsgroup. If your question is "I have this formula for total reliability, how do I implement it in MATLAB?" or "Does MATLAB have a function to compute the total reliability?" then this is the right newsgroup on which to ask your question. [I don't know the answer to the latter of those questions; I would suggest looking at the Statistics Toolbox documentation on the Support section of http://www.mathworks.com to determine the answer.] If your question is "What is the formula for total reliability?" then a newsgroup like sci.stat.math would be a more appropriate place to ask, as it's not really MATLAB related at that point. If your news server doesn't carry sci.stat.math, look at Google Groups (http://groups.google.com) or another free newsgroup hosting site. Alternately, if this is a homework problem for a statistics course (it sounds similar to the types of probability and statistics questions I remember from my courses) then you likely have a textbook, a teaching assistant, and/or your professor that you can use as a resource to help you answer this question. -- Steve Lord slord(a)mathworks.com comp.soft-sys.matlab (CSSM) FAQ: http://matlabwiki.mathworks.com/MATLAB_FAQ To contact Technical Support use the Contact Us link on http://www.mathworks.com

Fundamental computing theorems tell us that it is thus possible to compute anything in Matlab that is deterministically computable (within the storage limitations.) Since it is possible to use Matlab to compute anything deterministically computable, does that mean that this newsgroup is fair ground for discussion of anything that is deterministically computable? Since it *could* be done in Matlab? |
