Calculating the estimation of population parameters from a sample

Description: This video is an introduction to calculating the estimation of population parameters from a sample in statistics. The video covers the principles of good sampling, including random selection, independence of observations and appropriate sample size. Different types of sampling strategies are briefly discussed, such as simple random sampling, stratified sampling, systematic sampling and cluster sampling.

The video also includes an example of calculating the mean and standard deviation of a sample and compares it to the mean and standard deviation of the population.
