ASTM E456 - 2013a (Reapproved in 2017) Standard Terminology Relating to Quality and StatisticsThis standard is the general terminology standard for terms defined in the standards of Committee E11 on Quality and Statistics

American Society for Testing and Materials. Reapproved edition, 2017.- 10 p.
A term in this standard which lists an attribution to an E11 technical standard indicates that the standard is normative for that term. Any changes in the term definition in the normative standard will be editorially changed in this standard. Any terms added to an E11 standard will be editorially added to this standard with an attribution to that standard.
Term definitions that are similar to ISO 3534 will be noted in this standard, but ISO 3534 will not be considered normative for any E11 terms.
