Outcomes

4.5.2.2

consider the approximate normality of the distribution of 𝑝̂ for large samples

4.5.2.3

simulate repeated random sampling, for a variety of values of p and a range of sample sizes, to illustrate the distribution of ˆp and the approximate standard normality of (ˆp−p)/(sqrt(ˆp(1−ˆp)/n) where the closeness of the approximation depends on both n and p
