Welcome to the session on ‘Central Limit Theorem’. In the last session, you learnt about probability density functions, specifically normal and standard normal distributions.
In this session
You will learn what a sample is and why it is so error-prone. You will then understand how to quantify this error made in sampling using a popular theorem in statistics, called the central limit theorem.
