Ȳi is the mean of the group i; ni is the number of observations of the group i; Ȳ is the overall mean; K is the number of groups; Yij is the jth observational value of group i; and N is the number of all observational values. The F statistic is the ratio of intergroup mean sum of squares to intragroup mean sum of squares.
