Confidence interval
- How to Test the Mean of an Exponential DistributionTest an exponential population mean with an exact chi-square statistic, and use the same pivot to construct a confidence interval for the mean.
- How to Determine Sample Size for a Normal MeanCalculate sample size for estimating a normal population mean from the confidence level, desired margin of error, and standard deviation.
- Continuity Correction vs. Confidence Interval: What’s the Difference?A continuity correction improves normal approximations to discrete probabilities; a confidence interval estimates an unknown parameter. Here is when each applies.
- How to Find a Confidence Interval for a Uniform DistributionFor independent Uniform(0, θ) data, use the sample maximum to derive an exact confidence interval, with formulas and a worked 95% example.
