Sample size required to estimate population variance

Hello,

Sorry for the HTML, I hadn't realised that my cellphone was not

Hello,Maybe I'm not understanding but to compute the sample variance  
you need at least 2 data points??The ML estimator can be computed  
with just 1 but it will be zero.Hope this helps,Rui Barradas?Enviado

[R] Sample size required to estimate population variance  
Colleagues,Can anyone suggest a package or code which might help me  
calculate the minimum sample size required to estimate the  
population variance? I can do this in Minitab but I'd rather do this  
in R.Thomas Subia	[[alternative HTML version
