Definitions:

Point Estimate

The best single guess for a population parameter based on sample data. It represents a single value estimate of a parameter.

Population Parameter

A value that represents a characteristic of an entire population, such as its mean or standard deviation.

Random Sample

A subset of individuals chosen from a larger set, where each member has an equal chance of being selected, ensuring unbiased representation.

Confidence Interval

A range of values, derived from the sample statistics, that is believed to contain the true population parameter with a certain probability.
