Confidence intervals can be calculated for any parameter within a statistical population. For this example of notation, assume that ''mu'' is the [[mean]], and mu-tilde is the estimator of mu. The probability that the mean and its estimator are less than some value ''y'' is equal to ''x'', where ''y'' is some non-negative real number, and ''x''ϵ[0,1].
