Bootstrapping
Wikipedia
Boostrapping is used to sample from your sample to get a measure of accuracy of your statistics.
Nonparametric Bootstrapping
In nonparametric bootstrapping, you resample from your sample with replacement.
In this scenario, you don't need to know the family of distributions that your sample comes from.
Parametric Bootstrapping
In parametric bootstrapping, you learn the distribution parameters of your sample, e.g. with MLE.
Then you can generate samples from that distribution on a computer.
