Presets

The central limit theorem is why the normal distribution is everywhere: no matter how skewed or lumpy the source distribution, the distribution of sample means becomes bell-shaped as the sample size grows. Try a heavily skewed exponential at n=1, then raise n and watch it turn normal.

Governing equation

Reading this result: At n=10 the sample means are already piling into a bell even though the exponential source is not normal — the central limit theorem kicking in.
