SCIENCE LAB
Compute a 90%, 95%, or 99% confidence interval for a dataset mean using the t-distribution with a small-bias z approximation.

BATCH / ONE VALUE PER LINE
Up to 200 lines, one at a time, in this browser. Each line takes the place of values and everything else stays as you set it. Nothing is uploaded, and the row limit is not exceeded silently.
METHOD / LOCAL RUN
CI = mean ± z × (sample stddev / √n). Uses fixed z-values: 1.645 (90%), 1.96 (95%), 2.576 (99%).
Boundary: Normal-distribution approximation. Not exact for very small samples (n < 30).
The calculation or transformation runs in your browser using the values entered above. No input is sent to UtilityForge for this tool.

FAQ
No. The confidence interval calculator runs entirely locally.
The workbench states the exact method behind every result — the formula or procedure this page runs — so you can verify the computation instead of trusting a black box.
No. This workbench runs in the page: Values (comma-separated), Confidence level are read by the code your browser already downloaded, and UtilityForge receives neither the values nor the result.
Normal-distribution approximation. Not exact for very small samples (n < 30).
