摘要
Let {X-1,...., X-N} be a set of N independent random variables, and let S-n be a sum of n random variables chosen without replacement from the set {X-1,...,X-n} with= equal probabilities. In this paper we give a one-term Edgeworth expansion of the remainder term for the normal approximation of S-n under mild conditions.
