Published 2P Weibull Distribution Complete Data RRY Example
From Dimitri Kececioglu, Reliability & Life Testing Handbook, Page 418 [20].
Sample of 10 units, all tested to failure. The times-to-failure were recorded at 16; 34; 53; 75; 93; 120; 150; 191; 240; and 339 hours.

Computed Results in Weibull++
This same data set can be entered into Weibull++ by selecting the Times to Failure type. Use RRY for the estimation method.
Weibull++ computed parameters for RRY are:
The small difference between the published results and the ones obtained from Weibull++ is due to the difference in the median rank values between the two (in the publication, median ranks are obtained from tables to 3 decimal places, whereas in Weibull++ they are calculated and carried out up to the 15th decimal point).
