‘On the ratio of two correlated normal random variables’

Abstract

Dr G. Marsaglia has kindly pointed out that my remarks (pp. 635–6) concerning his standardized ratio Z are obviously incorrect, since the general ratio W can be expressed as σ 1 σ 2 ( 1 - ρ 2 { θ 1 σ 2 + Y 1 θ 2 σ 2 + Y 2 + ρ ( 1 - ρ 2 ) } .
