    Random Errors * Random (accidental) errors are those errors remaining after systematic errors have been eliminated. * Characteristics: Positive and negative with same occurrence probability for same absolute value of the signal. * Less probable as magnitude of the absolute value increases. Random Errors * Approaches zero as the number of measurements increase. * For a given measurement method, random errors do not exceed a fixed value. If random errors do exceed a fixed value, that experiment should be repeated and studied separately. Random Errors * Random errors imply one measures n times to have a set of x (datum) that can be averaged (x,) . If the set of values is finite then each average is different. The averages follow a Gaussian Distribution * Having a variance of 07/n and o? is the variance of x. * Confidence interval for x is X,— uncertainty
