In statistics, sampling errors are incurred when the statistical characteristics of a population are estimated from a subset, or sample, of that population.
Here the 'IEEE 754 double value' resulting of the 15 bit figure is 3.330560653658221E-15, which is rounded by Excel for the 'user interface' to 15 digits 3.33056065365822E-15, and then displayed with 30 decimals digits gets one 'fake zero' added, thus the 'binary' and 'decimal' values in the sample are identical only in display, the values ...
Sample ratio mismatches can be detected using a chi-squared test. [3] Using methods to detect SRM can help non-experts avoid making discussions using biased data. [4] If the sample size is large enough, even a small discrepancy between the observed and expected group sizes can invalidate the results of an experiment. [5] [6]
Non-sampling errors are other errors which can impact final survey estimates, caused by problems in data collection, processing, or sample design. Such errors may include: Over-coverage: inclusion of data from outside of the population; Under-coverage: sampling frame does not include elements in the population.
The sampling distribution of a mean is generated by repeated sampling from the same population and recording the sample mean per sample. This forms a distribution of different means, and this distribution has its own mean and variance .
This interval is called the confidence interval, and the radius (half the interval) is called the margin of error, corresponding to a 95% confidence level. Generally, at a confidence level , a sample sized of a population having expected standard deviation has a margin of error

The sum of squares of errors (SSE) is the MSE multiplied by the sample size. Sum of squares of residuals (SSR) is the sum of the squares of the deviations of the actual values from the predicted values, within the sample used for estimation.
