Hi,

Can anyone help me with the following (although not directly correlated
to R functionality)? I have been looking on the internet but can not
find the answer.

My question: what is the variation on the mean of a limited distribution
(total N points normally distributed), when I have a small sample of
that distribution (n < N)?

Your help would be very welcome.

Thanx,
Roy
