Simulating central limit theorem
Now that we have some practice creating a sample, we'll look at simulating the central limit theorem, similar to what you saw in the slides. We'll also continue dealing with a standard die numbered 1 through 6.
In order to do this, you'll take a collection of sample means from numpy
and examine the distribution of them using the matplotlib
package, which has been imported as plt
for the rest of the chapter.

Hands-on interactive exercise
Have a go at this exercise by completing this sample code.
from numpy.random import randint
# Create a list of 1000 sample means of size 30
means = [randint(____, ____, ____).mean() for i in ____]
