Definitions:

Stratified Random Sample

A method of sampling that involves dividing a population into smaller groups, known as strata, and then randomly selecting samples from each stratum.

Sample Standard Deviation

Sample Mean

The average value computed from a sample of a population, used as an estimate of the population mean.

Population Mean

The population mean is the average of all the values in a population. It is a measure of central tendency that summarises the characteristic of the entire population.
