statistical concepts which are frequentlymisunderstood by students at this level16.It should certainly be pointed out to students that this approach provides a very conservativenumber because it assumes worst case addition of inaccuracies and that more sophisticatedtechniques will be introduced later. If students are familiar with basic statistical techniques wecan differentiate between random and systematic errors and show that random errors can bereduced by averaging the results of repeated measurement. In this case, for random errors, therange can be replaced with  2s / n , where s is the experimental standard deviation and n is thenumber of samples averaged. This gives a 95% coverage interval for normally distributed dataand, by Chebyshev’s
