Chi-Square Distribution
The technique was introduced in 1900 by Kearl Pearson.


Among the uses of chi-square are the following:


  •  To test the goodness of fit to a normal curve; that is, to find out whether or not a sample distribution conforms with the hypothetical normal distribution.
  • To find out whether or not an observed proportion is equal to some given ideal or expected proportion.
  • To test the independence of one variable from another variable.
