How to fit a normal distribution of specified mean and standard deviation to a data set?
Suppose I create 100 values from a standard normal.While my parameters are mean=0 and SD=1, the calculated statistics from the 100 data will not be fully equal to the parameter values.If I use "Analyze" and "Distribution" I get a histogram of the 100 random data values and I can fit a normal distribution to these values ("Continuous fit" / "Normal"). The fit is based on the statistics of the data....
