    This document defines common statistical symbols and their meanings. It includes symbols for probability functions like P(A) representing the probability of an event A occurring. It also includes symbols related to distributions like the normal distribution N(μ,σ2), uniform distribution U(a,b), and binomial distribution Bin(n,p). Additionally, it provides symbols for measures of central tendency and dispersion, such as the population mean μ, variance var(X), and standard deviation std(X).
