Use standard type for Greek letters, subscripts and superscripts that function as identifiers (i.e., are not variables, as in the subscript “girls” in the example that follows), and abbreviations that are not variables (e.g., log, GLM, WLS). Use bold type for symbols for vectors and matrices. Use italic type for all other statistical symbols.

Considering the population of girls with tastes disorders, I do a binomial test with number of success k = 7, number of trials n = 8, and probability of success p = 0.5, to test my null hypothesis H0 = "my cake tastes good for no more than 50% of the population of girls with taste disorders". In python I can run binomtest(7, 8, 0.5, alternative="greater") which gives the following result ...
