Abstract
“The Road Not Taken” is an exemplary poem composed by Robert Frost in 1916. The focal point of the paper is a careful statistical study of this poem intensifying several features such as:
Whether the number of words per line follows uniform distribution or not.
Studying the frequency distribution of word length and fitting a suitable probability model.
Do the number of vowels follow a binomial or a quasi binomial model?
Are the number of letters per line uniformly distributed?
Computing the empirical probability of each alphabet in the poem.
Analysis of rhythm in the poem.
Analysis of parts of speech used in the poem.
