text: In statistics, information is often inferred about a population by studying a finite number of individuals from that population, i.e. the population is sampled, and it is assumed that characteristics of the sample are representative of the overall population.
text: Unfortunately, unless the full population is sampled, the estimate p̂ most likely won't equal the true value p, since p̂ suffers from sampling noise, i.e. it depends on the particular individuals that were sampled.
text: Taking the commonly used 95% confidence level as an example, if the same population were sampled multiple times, and interval estimates made on each occasion, in approximately 95% of the cases, the true population parameter would be contained within the interval.
