confidence interval, determination of
continuous intervals for mean, difference
of means, proportion of means, standard
deviation, proportion of standard
deviations
Testing of hypothesis
-introduction and key definitions:
hypothesis, null hypothesis, absolute
hypothesis, alternative hypothesis, simple
and composite hypothesis
- tests of significance
-types of errors
-level of significance and critical region
-one-tailed and two tailed tests,
procedure for testing hypothesis
