i see you forgot your statistics,, with an " n " of 1. not very exciting.. email me a number to call

n= subjects

If you are sampling you are looking at a number of samples. Looking at samples is checking their values that you want to observe. It is from looking at the samples and gathering data that you glean an insight into the distribution of those values in a distribution/population. N is typically the number ofsamples you collected data from. If a value that you are looking at in your samples than the sum of those values divided by N (number ofsamples) gives you the average of the value you arc investigating.
