Extract

In a previous paper (Leslie (1967)) the distribution of recurrence times for a particular set of success-failure patterns on a sequence of Bernoulli trials was investigated. We now consider the analogous events in continuous time and obtain the Laplace Transform (L.T.) of the distribution of recurrence times; numerical inversion yields the distribution functions.
