distribution, it is a special case of a more general distribution.
Background
This distribution was first discussed in 1908, in a paper authored by "Student" — actually William S. Gosset, a brewmaster for Guiness. Guiness did not allow him to publish under his own name; hence the pseudonym. As with the distribution, it is a special case of a more general distribution.
As with the 
distribution, we are primarily including Student's T distribution because it is used in other computations we will study later in the course.
