Goodness-of-fit Test

A goodness-of-fit test is a statistical test used to determine how well a set of observed values fits a specific distribution or model.

Normally Distributed

Characterized by its symmetry around the mean, this probability distribution highlights a more frequent occurrence of data near the mean compared to far from the mean.

Goodness-of-fit Test

A statistical method utilized to assess the adequacy of observed data conforming to a particular distribution.

Normally Distributed

Explains a probability distribution pattern that is uniform on both sides of the mean, highlighting that data points closer to the mean have a higher frequency of occurrence compared to those farther away.
