HOW TO CREATE A HISTOGRAM USING GENERATED DATA

The attached mathcad code will generate a sample of m = 1000 values. I would like to create a histogram or curve of the data. Kindly assist. I want to verify if the data generated is normal. Thank you.

Thanks Raiko. Not really. The y-axis should be proportion of X.

Thanks Chris. That is better. I think I can modify it to get what I am looking for. I expect the histogram to be bellshaped (normal)

Comparing the cumulative distribution of your data with that of a standard 0,1-normal distribution shows, that your data seems not to follow a normal distribution.

The histogram shows this as well and you may also use the function "kurt" and "skew" with your data to test against a normal distribution.
