ABSTRACT
Thus far, we have presented many standard topics and approaches, both in probability theory and statistical inference. One would have noticed that, except in Chapter 5, the proposed methodologies were predominantly exact whatever the sample size n. In this chapter, we summarize some approximate confidence interval and test procedures which work well when n is “large.” These methods help one to achieve an approximate confidence coefficient or approximate level for some kinds of problems that cannot be handled exactly.
