Estimates from: samples of items; averages.

n Sample size. •
μ, σ (kg)   (Gaussian) Parameters for the item (e.g.. bag weight). •
prob % Probability for confidence intervals. •
Trials, .seed N. of trials and random n. generator seed. •
Show values Show the graph coordinates.

Compares the behaviour of (individual) items and their averages, aiming at computing confidence intervals for μ and σ. [This is based on the real case of samples of bags ('items') and their total weights (leading to 'averages').]

The items are simulated from a Gaussian (μ, σ) distribution.

Draws plots of f  ('pdf'), and F  ('cdf') of: the items and their averages of n; and the items' variances. Remaining: CIs from items vs. from averages.
