Something doesn't add up:
"
...attempted to reproduce the 74 results. Statistically significant evidence for repeatability was found for 43 papers, meaning that the results were replicable under identical conditions; and significant evidence for reproducibility or robustness was found in 22 papers, meaning the results were replicable by different scientists under similar conditions. In two cases, the automation made serendipitous discoveries.
While only 22 out of 74 papers were found to be reproducible in this experiment,... "
Shouldn't that be 9 were NOT reproducible since 65 we're reproducible?
Or does "results were replicable" mean something other than reproducible?
