u2-Sample t Interval

2-Samplet Interval calculates the confidence interval for the difference between two population means when both population standard deviations are unknown. The t interval is applied to t distribution.

The following confidence interval applies when pooling is in effect. The value 100 (1 – α) % is the confidence level.
