- Take 1,000,000 samples from the normal distribution using the
rng.normal()function. The meanmuand standard deviationsigmaare already loaded into the namespace of your IPython instance. - Compute the fraction of samples that have a time less than or equal to Secretariat's time of 144 seconds.
- Print the result.
