Example 1: The population from which samples are selected is {1,2,3,4,5,6}. This population has a mean of 3.5 and a standard deviation of 1.70783. The next display shows a histogram of the population.

Central Limit Theorem: A sampling distribution of the mean is approximately normally distributed if the sample size is sufficiently large. This is true no matter what the population distribution is.

Here are four programs that demonstrate sampling distributions. For each one, a "population" of 20,000 elements is established. The user selects a sample size and random samples are drawn from the ...
