How do I interpret "It is then of course interesting to know if the expected value (the mean) of the estimate then is equal to the true value."?

Dear all,
I hope you are well,

I have a query when I read the book.
But I can't interpret as following,

"It is then of course interesting to know if the expected value (the mean) of the estimate then is equal to the true value."

How do I interpret ?

There are some mathematical terms in the sentence: 1. expected value (the value that the statistics tell you that is the most likely) 2. mean value ( the average of all the observed values) 3.

In this sentence, #2 and #1 are exactly the same.

You may find it more useful in this case to post your question on a mathematics forum.
