20. Normal Distribution

The Normal Distribution is a crucial probability distribution in engineering, data analysis, and statistics, characterized by its symmetry around the mean and defined by the mean and standard deviation. The Central Limit Theorem underscores its importance, asserting that sample means approach a normal distribution irrespective of the population distribution's shape with a large enough sample size. Key concepts include the Standard Normal Distribution and various application domains such as engineering and finance.
