Summary

The last two chapters have covered the basic concepts of estimation. In Chapter 9 we studied the problem of giving a single number to estimate a parameter. In Chapter 10 we looked at ways to give an interval that we believe will include the true parameter. In many applications, we want to ask some very specific questions about the parameter(s).
