Explanation / Answer

rm(list=ls(all=TRUE))
x=read.csv("Book1.csv") ###### Excel file in csv format "Book1"
library(StatDA)
ppplot.das(x[,1])

x=read.csv("Book1.csv")
summary(x)
n=length(x)
m=mean(x[,1])
st=sd(x[,1])
l=c(0.68,0.95,0.997)
cil=c();error=c();ciu=c()
for (i in 1:3){
error[i]=qnorm(l[i]/2)*st/sqrt(n)
cil[i]=m-error[i]
ciu[i]=m+error[i]
}
d=data.frame(cil,ciu)
