सारांश	The Wilcoxon signed-rank test is the nonparametric alternative to the paired t-test, comparing two related measurements on the same subjects to decide whether their typical difference is zero. It was introduced by Frank Wilcoxon in 1945 and works on continuous or ordinal data without assuming normality.	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.
