   What is the difference between a sample and a residual?

   • Errors, like other population parameters (e.g. a population mean), are usually theoretical. Residuals, like other sample statistics (e.g. a sample mean), are measured values from a sample. Sample statistics are often used to estimate population parameters, so in this case the residuals can be used to estimate the error.
