This article says:

the following product has to be calculated:

${\displaystyle P(A_{K}/A_{L})=\prod _{j=1}^{n}(a_{Kj}/a_{Lj})^{w_{j}},{\text{ for }}K,L=1,2,3,\dots ,m.}$

For the first split-second, I assumed P means "probability", but then I realized that doesn't seem to make sense. Is the product given here simply the definition of P(A_K/A_{L)? Michael Hardy ( talk) 16:37, 22 October 2010 (UTC)} reply
