Inadequate or unclear data.
What are you running the simulation on?
If n = number of scores, what is N?
Will the skew be positive (tail to the right) or negative (tail to the left)?
Run the simulation using n = 30 and N = 10 for a uniform, a bell-shaped, and a skewed distribution.
§ Identify the mean of the sampling distribution of sample means for each distribution.
§ Evaluate if the results are what you expected for each distribution.
Run the simulation again using n = 30 and N = 1000 for a skewed distribution.
§ Describe the shape of the distribution of sample means.
