Talk:Random sample

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

[edit] Merge suggested with Simple random sample

I believe the two articles cover quite different ideas, as I have now explained at Talk:Statistics. However this article and Statistical sample seem to overlap substantially, so they could usefully be merged. Avenue 13:43, 23 September 2005 (UTC)

  • I removed the merge tag and added an expert tag. Can you explain in this article the difference between a random and simple random sample? Thatcher131 15:00, 17 February 2006 (UTC)
