What is the difference between statistics and parameters?
Parameter is any attribute Statistic are the measured values of a parameter. A statistic is a sample value such as the average height of a group of students. A parameter is a functional constant such as the mean of a normal distribution. Statistics are often used to estimate parameters. For instance, a sample average is an estimate of the mean.
What is the difference between parameter and sample?
A parameter is an attribute that refers to the entire population. (For example, the mean price of all motor vehicles in a city). A sample is collected from this population of all motor vehicles in that city to compute a statistic (here, the statistic is the average price of the vehicles in the sample) which is representative of the true price.
A parameter is a numerical descriptor that is used to describe a population or a sample?
Either.
