	Conclusions (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-17)
		Nathan Divinsky in The Chess Encyclopedia [D] calls the Elo System "a mathematically sound and universally accepted (1970) rating system for chess players." The year refers to the adoption of the Elo System by FIDE.
		Actually, aside from Elo's 1965 study in The Journal of Gerontology, there has been virtually no peer review of the system beyond the world of organized chess.
		It is a controversy that has not yet been played out in organized chess and a cautionary tale for all involved.

		The type of error discussed here, arising from incorrect choice of predetermined variables, results in large-sample bias of estimates.
		In the last chapter (X) Chernoff and Divinsky give details of a variety of computation procedures for obtaining maximum-likelihood estimates of simultaneous economic relations.
		To illustrate the discussion a selection of worksheets exhibiting the more important steps in each procedure is reproduced.

	Search Results for Ring
		A commutative ring R is now called a 'Lasker ring' if every ideal of R can be represented as an intersection of a finite number of primary ideals.
		Nathan Divinsky, himself an exceptional mathematician and like Lasker most famous for his results in ring theory, writes:-.
		Finally let us comment that Lasker's results on the decomposition of ideals into primary ideals was the foundation on which Emmy Noether built an abstract theory which developed ring theory into a major mathematical topic and provided the foundations of modern algebraic geometry.
