Abstract

This paper describes the history of the search for unconditional and conditional upper bounds of the absolute constant in the Berry–Esseen inequality for sums of independent identically distributed random variables. Computational procedures are described. New estimates are presented from which it follows that the absolute constant in the classical Berry–Esseen inequality does not exceed 0.5129.
