Although the neutrosophic statistics has been defined since 1996, and published in the 1998 book Neutrosophy. / Neutrosophic Probability, Set, and Logic, it has not been developed since now. A similar fate had the neutrosophic probability that, except a few sporadic articles published in the meantime, it was barely developed in the 2013 book “Introduction to Neutrosophic Measure, Neutrosophic Integral, and Neutrosophic Probability”. Neutrosophic Statistics is an extension of the classical statistics, and one deals with set values instead of crisp values. Any quantity computed with some indeterminacy from values in a sample (i.e. not exactly) is a neutrosophic statistics. A neutrosophic statistic is a random variable and as such has a neutrosophic probability distribution. The long-run behaviour of a neutrosophic statistic’s values is described when one computes this statistic for many different samples, each of the same size. Neutrosophic Statistics is an extension of the classical statistics. While in classical statistics the data is known, formed by crisp numbers, in neutrosophic statistics the data has some indeterminacy.
