The Gaussian distribution, also known as the normal distribution, is a continuous probability distribution characterized by its bell-shaped curve, defined by its mean and standard deviation. It plays a central role in statistics because many phenomena tend to approximate a normal distribution due to the Central Limit Theorem, which states that the sum of a large number of independent random variables will tend to be normally distributed, regardless of the original distribution.
congrats on reading the definition of Gaussian Distribution. now let's actually learn it.
