A parameter is a numerical descriptor that is used to describe a population?
A parameter is a descriptor, not necessarily numerical, and not restricted to descriptions of a population. But if we are talking about a population, let us say the population of the United States, we can break it down into males and females, or children and adults, or Repbulicans, Democrats, members of other parties or members of no parties, and we would be defiing parameters of gender, age, and political affiliation.
