Abstract
In this article, three Matlab functions are introduced to help students visualize some concepts in distribution theory. The functions allow the students to experiment with the parameters and views to see the effects immediately. The three tools cover the areas of the central limit theorem, the normal approximation to the binomial, and the bivariate normal distribution. Some notes on using the programs in the classroom are also given.
