Abstract
We shall start with a short history of the fiducial inference. Then give an introduction to the concepts of post-data and pre-data inferences in statistics. Examples are given to show the importance and usefulness of the post-data inferences. Finally, fiducial distributions (posterior distributions of parameters in the absence of prior distributions) are constructed and their applications in statistical inferences demonstrated.
