These notes will cover how to estimate the mean of a variable for the entire population after computing the mean for a specific sample.

After the data has been collected, the confidence interval either contains the parameter or it doesn't. Thus we talk about confidence rather than probability.

The 99% confidence interval is larger than the 95% confidence interval, and thus is more likely to include the true mean. α = the probability a confidence ...

The wider the interval, the more confident you can be that it contains the parameter. In the above example, a 95% confidence interval would range from 4.71 to ...
