Abstract
This article presents the mathematical foundation for calculating PD's (probability distributions) for some set of phases needed for the structure determination of a crystal. We can obtain PD's of the phases that can contain N, or without N . A former paper [3] could only obtain PD's of the phases containing N . Here we have the two possibilities.
