Resolved: What it means that "all computable statistics are elegant"?

Question

Hello,

I'm not sure how to interpret the world "elegant" in this sentence? Sorry - I'm not a native speaker, so elegant means to me something what is "smart", "stylish". I have no idea how to match it with static and numbers :)

Could please the authors explain how to understand this sentence?

Answer 1

Hello,

What the author is referring to is that the properties of the normal distribution are well-understood and can be calculated with relatively simple formulas.

Hope this helps!

Best,

Ned
