use graphical displays of simulated data to investigate the variability of random samples from various types of distributions, including uniform, normal and Bernoulli
ACMMM176
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
ACMMM180
use simulation to illustrate variations in confidence intervals between samples and to show that most but not all confidence intervals contain p
