Definition
Statistic – A quantity calculated from a
sample of observations, usually as an estimate of some population parameter
such as mean or standard deviation. AGARD Multilingual Aeronautical
Dictionary, 1980.
Probability – A real number in the scale
0-1 attached to a random event. It can be related to a long run relative
frequency of occurrence or degrees of belief that an event will occur. AGARD
Multilingual Aeronautical Dictionary, 1980.
