    Question Test Bed of Users

    I'm not brialliant at maths and don't pretend to be! But i have a problem which requires some statistics.

    Basically how would i prove how many people to test on to create a non bias result?

    does that make sense? I am writing a program that will test user interactions with a pc and need to find a suitable test bed...but how many people do i use?

    Cheers in advance, any suggestion references etc would be greatfully recieved!

    it sounds like you're looking at confidence intervals. if this is the case then we can help you if you supply us with the following information:

    *how confident you want to be. like 99% or 95% or something.
    *some sample results
    There are 10 types of people in the world - those that understand binary, and those that don't.
