Normal distribution
- Looks like a bell curve
- There is as much probability of something happening below the mean as above it
- Also called a Gaussian or Gauss curve because Gauss discovered it
!
Normal distributions are important in statistics and used very often to represent the spread of naturally occurring random variables.
