Just watched a video on Law of Large Numbers. Says the creator ...
"for some random variable X, for n observations of X in n samples, as n→∞, X→μ, where μ= the population mean." This be the law of large numbers.
So far so good?
I was wondering about this though ...
If m = the sample size and M is the population size, for 1 sample, m→M⟹x→μ. The larger the sample size, the better it is, oui, statistically?
Is this also a law with a name or does it simply get clubbed under A good sample (should be ...)?
