[R] Calculating confidence in an estimate including number of trials?

2007-10-16 Thread Zembower, Kevin
[Yes, this is related to a homework problem, but is not the problems itself.] In my mathematical statistics class, we've just learned about properties of estimators, and I can now solve manually problems like this: A sample of size n = 16 is drawn from a normal distribution where sigma = 10 but m
