"A population is a collection of data whose properties are analyzed. The population is the complete collection to be studied, it contains all subjects of interest. A sample is a part of the population of interest, a sub-collection selected from a population." http://infinity.cos.edu/faculty/woodbury/stats/tutorial/Data_Pop_Samp.htm
