Statistical tables associated with named probability distributions and their families, such as the standard normal, Student’s t, and chi-square tables, among others, have been utilized for years and are still widely used today, especially for mathematics and statistics education. While such tables can be found in many statistics textbooks and even on the internet, various shortcomings exist regarding the process of obtaining and distributing tables, as well as the content and appearance of some. In this article, a description is provided of a free, web-based Shiny application created by the author to address these shortcomings and which enables users to generate common statistical tables that are simple and quick to make, customizable, and that users may download and distribute without fear of committing copyright infringement.
