TMeanEstimate[<List of Sample Data>,<Level>]
Calculates a T confidence interval estimate of a population mean using the given sample data and confidence Level. Results are returned in list form as {lower confidence limit, upper confidence limit}.
TMeanEstimate[<Sample Mean>,<Sample Standard Deviation>,<Sample Size>,<Level>]
Calculates a T confidence interval estimate of a population mean using the given sample statistics and confidence level. Results are returned in list form as {lower confidence limit, upper confidence limit}.
Note: This interval has definition: sample mean ± t* SE, where
n = sample size
SE = sample standard deviation / sqrt(n)
t* = critical value for given confidence Level and T distribution with degrees of freedom = n-1 .
