<p>and assumptions of normality. Bootstrapping is also a convenient method that avoids the cost of repeating the experiment to get other groups of sample data.</p>

<p><big> Disadvantages </big></p>
<p>Bootstrapping depends heavily on the estimator used and, though simple, naive use of bootstrapping will not always yield asymptotically valid results and can lead to inconsistency. Although bootstrapping is (under some conditions) asymptotically <a href="page.php?w=Consistency_%28statistics%29">consistent</a>, it does not provide general finite-sample guarantees.</p><p>
