SE, SD and CI

Standard deviation gives an indication of the variability of the underlying set of values.
Standard error gives an indication of how close the calculated mean of the set of values is to
the mean of the entire population of these values (this is dependant on the number of these
values the mean is found from - the greater the number of values used, the smaller the
standard error).
The condfidence interval is the range which is likely to contain the true population mean
(and is thus related to the standard error).
