Hands-on interactive exercise
Have a go at this exercise by completing this sample code.
# The nc data frame and the inference() function are already loaded into the workspace
# Adapt the inference() function:
inference(nc$gained, type = "ci", method = "simulation", conflevel = 0.95, est = "mean", boot_method = "se")
