Introduction to Accuracy and Precision (includes Relative Error)
This video includes the definitions of Accuracy and Precision. It also shows several examples using a "Safe Dart" bow and arrow. It ends with the equation for Relative Error.

Calculating Percent Error
Sometimes we take measurements, and sometimes we're off by a little bit. How far off? Does it make sense to just use a number? Shouldn't we use something that tells us how far off we are relative to the true value? Yes we should, hence,...

Confidence Intervals - Crash Course Statistics
Today we’re going to talk about confidence intervals. Confidence intervals allow us to quantify our uncertainty, by allowing us to define a range of values for our predictions and assigning a likelihood that something falls within that...
