Half-normal distribution

In probability theory and statistics, the half-normal distribution is a special case of the folded normal distribution. Let follow an ordinary normal distribution, . Then, follows a half-normal distribution. Thus, the half-normal distribution is a fold at the mean of an ordinary normal distribution with mean zero. (Wikipedia).

Using normal distribution to find the probability

👉 Learn how to find probability from a normal distribution curve. A set of data are said to be normally distributed if the set of data is symmetrical about the mean. The shape of a normal distribution curve is bell-shaped. The normal distribution curve is such that the mean is at the cente

Year 13/A2 Statistics Chapter 3.6 (The Normal Distribution)

This session explains the normal approximation to the binomial distribution: when 𝑛 is large and 𝑝 is close to 0.5, binomial distributions can very accurately be approximated by the normal distribution. These questions can be rather demanding, and so I have included some extra worked examp

Describing Distributions with Skewness, Kurtosis, Modality, & z-Scores Business Statistics (Week 6A)

The normal curve is the most important distribution in statistics. When distributions differ from normality, we describe them with kurtosis (leptokurtic, platykurtic, mesokurtic), with skewness (positive or negative), and with modality (unimodal, bimodal, multimodal). In addition to those
