This monograph is the first to examine an important but somewhat neglected field - univariate continuous distribution on a bounded domain, excluding the beta distribution. It provides an elementary but thorough discussion of ''novel'' contributions developed in recent years, such as the two-sided power, generalized trapezoidal and generalized Topp and Leone distributions, among others. It discusses a general framework for constructing two-sided distributions and some of itsTheory of distributions (Functional analysis)Multivariate analysisTheory of distributions (Functional analysis)Multivariate analysis.515.782519.531.73bclKotz Samuel12052Van Dorp Johan René1501720MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910783919003321Beyond beta3729027UNINA
