Let the ordered sample observations be denoted by
being the smallest and yn the largest). Our suggested check for normality is to plot the
pairs. Suppose we believe that the observations come from a distribution with mean 0, and let w1,..., wn be the ordered absolute values of the xi 9s. A halfnormal plot is a probability plot of the wi 9s. More specifically, since
half-normal plot is a plot of the
airs. The virtue of this plot is that small or large outliers in the original sample will now appear only at the upper end of the plot rather than at both ends. Construct a half-normal plot for the following sample of measurement errors, and comment
