  1. Use pandas to read in this dataset about donkeys. The variable Weight is measured in kilograms.

  2. Make a (classical) t-distribution confidence interval about the variable Weight. Interpret this confidence interval in the context of the data. Don't forget the units.

  3. Bootstrap a confidence interval about the variable Weight. Interpret this confidence interval in the context of the data. Don't forget the units.

  4. Suppose . Choose values for . Show that the (classical) t-distribution confidence interval procedure indeed captures the true expectation of the time. You'll need to make confidence intervals, each from newly sampled data from , and ensure is contained within of the intervals.
