The mean of the distribution is 1.75 m. If one man chosen at random is 1.80 m tall, the (statistical) error is 0.05 m (5 cm); if he is 1.70 tall, the error is â5 cm. A residual (or fitting error), on the other hand, is an observable estimate of the unobservable statistical error. The simplest case involves a random sample of n men whose heights are measured. The sample mean is used as an estimate of the population mean.
