Joint Statistical Meeting of the Deutsche Arbeitsgemeinschaft Statistik, from 24 to 28 March 2025 in Berlin. <br>Here ``teachable'' is meant to apply to people ranging from sufficiently advanced high school pupils to university students in mathematics or statistics: For understanding most of the proposed approximation results, it should suffice to know binomial laws, their means and variances, and the standard normal distribution function (but not necessarily the concept of a corresponding normal random variable). <br>Of the proposed approximations, some are well-known (at least to experts), and some are based on teaching experience and research at Trier University. </p> </div> </dd> </dl> <dl id='articles'> <h3>Cross submissions (showing 1 of 1 entries)</h3> <dt> <a name='item2'>[2]</a>

In fact, any updating rule is uniquely specified by this principle. This is true for the classical setting, as well as settings with improper or continuous priors. We prove this result and illustrate it with two examples. </p> </div> </dd> </dl> <div class='paging'>Total of 2 entries </div> <div class='morefewer'>Showing up to 2000 entries per page: <a href=/list/stat.OT/new?skip=0&show=1000 rel="nofollow"> fewer</a> | <span style="color: #454545">more</span> | <span style="color: #454545">all</span> </div> </div> </div> </div> </main> <footer style="clear: both;"> <div class="columns is-desktop" role="navigation" aria-label="Secondary" style="margin: -0.75em -0.75em 0.75em -0.75em"> <!-- Macro-Column 1 --> <div class="column" style="padding: 0;"> <div class="columns"> <div class="column"> <ul style="list-style: none;
