What is random sampling?
12/06/2022 | by Patrick Fischer, M.Sc., Founder & Data Scientist: FDS
A random sample is a selection method in which a group of elements from a given population is selected based on randomness. Each element in the population has an equal probability of being included in the sample, and each element that is selected is considered part of the sample. This method is often used in research and statistical analysis to obtain a representative group that may not be obtained by other selection methods.
