Normal Distribution of Data (Numerical)

The second method to check the normality of the data is through a numerical method

I am going to use the kurtosis and skewness

The steps that I took are;










The result and interpretation;





For skewness's value: I divide -0.625 with 0.464 where I would get -1.3469


  • -1.3469 is smaller than 1.96 indicates that the data is normal


For kurtosis's value: I divide 0.018 with 0.902 where I would get 0.0199


  • 0.0199 is also smaller than 1.96 indicates that the data is normal
