Completely sample
Sample is called completely sample if all of observations (objects) in a random sample of n items are observed. If T1, T2, , Tn are iid with pdf f(t) and survivor function S(t), the joint pdf of them is
f ( t 1 , t 2 ,..., t n ) =
i =1
f (t i )
1, if i = 0, if
Ti Li Ti > Li
If the Ti s are assumed iid with pdf f(t) and survivor function S(t), joint pdf of Ti s is
1 i
If the Ti s are assumed iid with pdf f(t) and survivor function S(t), joint pdf of T(1) , T(2) , , T(r) is
n! f (t(1) ,t(2) ,...,t(r) ) = f (t(1) ) f (t(2) )Lf (t(r) ) S(t(r) )nr (n r)!
