+def confidence_interval(thicket, columns=None, confidence_level=0.95):
+    r"""Calculate the confidence interval for each node in the performance data table.
+
+    Designed to take in a thicket, and append one or more columns to the aggregated
+    statistics table for the confidence interval calculation for each node.
+
+    A confidence interval is a range of values, derived from sample data, that is
+    likely to contain the true population parameter with a specified level of confidence.
+    It provides an estimate of uncertainty around a sample statistic, indicating how much
+    variability is expected if the sampling process were repeated multiple times.
+
+    Arguments:
+        thicket (thicket): Thicket object
+        columns (list): List of hardware/timing metrics to perform confidence interval
+            calculation on. Note, if using a columnar_joined thicket a list of tuples
+            must be passed in with the format (column index, column name).
+        confidence_level (float):  The confidence level (often 0.90, 0.95, or 0.99)
+            indicates the degree of confidence that the true parameter lies within the interval.
+
+    Returns:
+        (list): returns a list of output statsframe column names
+
+    Equation:
+        .. math::
+
+             \text{CI} = \bar{x} \pm z \left( \frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}} \right)
