"Usually, the optimality criterion is minimization of cost ... In fact, the whole point is to provide the drug regulators with less information than they would be given by a design that is not flexible." senns.uk/SIDD.html 3rd edition p385

Quantum computers could help us to answer questions that can’t be solved by ordinary computers. But what exactly is quantum, and how does it work? For #WorldQuantumDay we asked IBM for a simple explanation of the science behind this exciting technology 💡

“The standard error of a mean is famously known to be the standard deviation divided by the square root of the sample size, a formula that is valid, except, of course, when it isn't, which is nearly always.” See “Sum Mistake” linkedin.com/pulse/standard…
