| Jan 20, 2017 at 17:30 | comment | added | Joel W. | When SE says a question has N views, does that mean that N different people have viewed the question, or can one person be counted more than once, say if the person added several comments? | |
| Jan 20, 2017 at 15:39 | comment | added | user78229 | As noted, it's a rule of thumb that was in my (at least) intro stats textbooks. The notion may have passed out of the culture or discipline of statistics and into obsolescence. Also as noted, it's a comment, not a full response. As such, it doesn't require further explanation. If it's not obvious to you, fuhgeddabouddit. | |

| Jan 20, 2017 at 14:40 | comment | added | user78229 | Sorry, I don't understand the question. To me, it's obvious how it relates. Besides, it's a comment that's neither eligible for the bounty nor requiring deeper elaboration. | |
