সারসংক্ষেপ	The Van der Waerden test is a nonparametric k-sample hypothesis test that converts observations into normal scores — the quantiles of a standard normal distribution — before comparing groups. Introduced by Bartel Leendert van der Waerden in 1952, it can achieve higher statistical power than the Kruskal-Wallis test when the underlying distributions are symmetric, making it a compelling bridge between rank-based and parametric methods.	The Mann-Whitney U test is the nonparametric alternative to the independent samples t-test, comparing two independent groups by ranking all observations together rather than relying on their means. It was introduced by H. B. Mann and D. R. Whitney in 1947 and does not require the data to be normally distributed.
