Plato’s dialogue: The Gorgias‚ 482e-484e: The Speech of Callicles When I first began to read this passage I was a little confused at the message Callicles was sending to reader and to the philosophers of that time.

It is easy to notice a similarity on the surface of two things that look alike‚ but when two stories are completely different in their content‚ it is not easy to detect a similarity. For instance‚ after we read for the first time “The Necklace” by Guy De Maupassant and “A Good Man Is Hard to Find” by Mary Flannery O’Connor‚ we cannot connect these two tragedies together.

Here‚ we describe estimation and hypothesis-testing procedures for the difference between two population means when the samples are dependent. In a case of two dependent samples‚ two data values—one for each sample—are collected from the same source (or element) and‚ hence‚ these are also called paired or matched samples.
