| Abstract: | We solve Problem 234 in Statistica Neerlandica by introducing the concept of slantedness. Distributions with a decreasing Lebesgue density are slanted to the right. This is no longer true for distributions on a lattice with decreasing density. Both kinds of distributions have positive central odd moments. |
