| danlan | The limitation comes from the fact that it's based on historic simulation. |
| NikolaZ | what is bootstrapping? |
| johntan1979 | In statistics, bootstrapping is a method for assigning measures of accuracy to sample estimates. This technique allows estimation of the sampling distribution of almost any statistic using only very simple methods. Generally, it falls in the broader class of resampling methods. Advantages A great advantage of bootstrap is its simplicity. It is straightforward way to derive estimates of standard errors and confidence intervals for complex estimators of complex parameters of the distribution, such as percentile points, proportions, odds ratio, and correlation coefficients. Disadvantages Although bootstrapping is (under some conditions) asymptotically consistent, it does not provide general finite-sample guarantees. Furthermore, it has a tendency to be overly optimistic. |

I am using your study notes and I know of at least 5 other friends of mine who used it and passed the exam last Dec. Keep up your great work!
