[1] [2] The dantian are important points of reference in neidan, qigong, neigong, daoyin, Taoist sexual practices, reiki [4] and other self-cultivation practices of exercise, breathing, and meditation, as well as in martial arts and in Traditional Chinese medicine. The lower dantian is particularly important as the focal point of breathing ...

The Go board (generally referred to by its Japanese name goban 碁盤) typically measures between 45 and 48 cm (18 and 19 in) in length (from one player's side to the other) and 42 to 44 cm (16 + 1 ⁄ 2 to 17 + 1 ⁄ 4 in) in width. Chinese boards are slightly larger, as a traditional Chinese Go stone is slightly larger to match.
The term Hmong is the English pronunciation of the Hmong's native name. It is a singular and plural noun (e.g., Japanese, French, etc.). Very little is known about the native Hmong name as it is not mentioned in Chinese historical records, since the Han identified the Hmong as Miao. The meaning of it is debatable and no one is sure of its ...
Usage. Pearson's chi-squared test is used to assess three types of comparison: goodness of fit, homogeneity, and independence . A test of goodness of fit establishes whether an observed frequency distribution differs from a theoretical distribution. A test of homogeneity compares the distribution of counts for two or more groups using the same ...
These values can be calculated evaluating the quantile function (also known as "inverse CDF" or "ICDF") of the chi-squared distribution; [21] e. g., the χ 2 ICDF for p = 0.05 and df = 7 yields 2.1673 ≈ 2.17 as in the table above, noticing that 1 – p is the p-value from the table.
The chi-square distribution has (k − c) degrees of freedom, where k is the number of non-empty cells and c is the number of estimated parameters (including location and scale parameters and shape parameters) for the distribution plus one. For example, for a 3-parameter Weibull distribution, c = 4.
In the People's Republic of China, since 1984, the chi has been defined as exactly 1/3 of a metre, i.e., cm (13.1 in). However, in the Hong Kong SAR the corresponding unit, pronounced tsek (cek3) in Cantonese, is defined as exactly 0.371475 m (1 ft 2.6250 in) or 1 7/32 ft. [2] The two units are sometimes referred to in English as "Chinese foot ...
