What is the Bootstrap Uncertainty multi-solver?

Bootstrap Uncertainty is a guided workflow that chains 2 individual PolySim solvers into one end-to-end analysis, piping each result into the next step.

Yes. Every step runs entirely in your browser using real numerics — no install, no account, no cloud cost. Custom or private solver packs are available as a paid service.

Bootstrap resamples B

The bootstrap estimates uncertainty by resampling your data with replacement thousands of times and recomputing the statistic each time. The spread of those bootstrap means gives a confidence interval — no formula or normality assumption required. Powerful when the math is intractable.

\hat{θ}^{*} = \frac{1}{25} i = 1 \sum 25 x_{i}^{*}, CI_{95%} = [\hat{θ}_{(2.5%)}^{*}, \hat{θ}_{(97.5%)}^{*}] = [0.00, 0.00]

Reading this result: The spread of the resampled means is the confidence interval — no normality assumption needed. Sample size sets its width; more resamples only sharpen its edges.

Sample size n

A confidence interval is often misread. It does not mean the true value has a 95% chance of being in one interval — it means that if you repeated the experiment many times, about 95% of the intervals would contain the true mean. The red intervals here are the unlucky ones that miss it.

\overset{x}{ˉ} \pm z \frac{σ}{n} = 50 \pm 1.96 \cdot \frac{10}{30}

Reading this result: About 0% of these 50 intervals captured the true mean — close to the 95% you asked for. Raising n from 30 tightens each interval (SE = σ/√n) but does not change that hit rate: the confidence level, not the sample size, sets how often you are right.
