A  complete sample  is a set of objects from a parent population that includes  all  such objects that satisfy a set of well-defined selection criteria. [3] [ failed verification ]  For example, a complete sample of Australian men taller than 2 m would consist of a list of  every  Australian male taller than 2 m. But it wouldn't include German males, or tall Australian females, or people shorter than 2 m. So to compile such a complete sample requires a complete list of the parent population, including data on height, gender, and nationality for each member of that parent population. In the case of human populations, such a complete list is unlikely to exist (the human population being in the billions). But such complete samples are often available in other disciplines, such as the set of players in a major sports league, the birth dates of the members of a parliament, or a complete magnitude-limited list of astronomical objects. https://n-sb.org/wik...
