摘要
By using the exact expression of the correlation coefficient distribution function under the alternative hypothesis in the case of a random sample from a normal population, the distribution functions of the Student t- and Snedecor F-distributions are provided in closed form. The distribution functions obtained are implemented as routines in the symbolic programming language Mathematica.
