TTest2[<List of Sample Data 1>,<List of Sample Data 2>,<Level>,<Boolean Pooled>]
Calculates a T confidence interval estimate of the difference between two population means using the given sample data sets and confidence Level.
If Pooled = true, then population variances are assumed equal and sample standard deviations are combined in calculation.
If Pooled = false, then population variances are not assumed equal and sample standard deviations are not combined.
Results are returned in list form as {lower confidence limit, upper confidence limit}.
TMean2Estimate[<Sample Mean 1 >,<Sample Standard Deviation 1 >, <Sample Size 1>, <Sample Mean 2 >,<Sample Standard Deviation 2 >, <Sample Size 2>, <Level>,<Boolean Pooled>]
Calculates a T confidence interval estimate of the difference between two population means using the given sample statistics and confidence Level. Results are returned in list form as {lower confidence limit, upper confidence limit}.
Pooled is defined as above.
Note: This interval has definition: (sample mean1 - sample mean2) ± t* SE, where
n1, n2 = sample sizes
s1, s2 = sample standard deviations
If pooled = true
sp = pooled standard deviation
SE = sp * sqrt(1/n1 + 1/n2)
t* = critical value for given confidence Level and T distribution with degrees of freedom = n1 + n2 - 2.
If pooled = false
SE = sqrt(s1^2/n1 + s2^2/n2)
t* = critical value for given confidence Level and T distribution with degrees of freedom given by the Welch-Satterthwaite approximation .
