It allows to simulate observations of a normal distribution, giving its descriptive measures and confidence intervals. This program has been conceived to illustrate: (1) The different profiles (histograms) that can show the empirical data of a random variable with normal distribution and how they are affected by the sample size; (2) The random nature of the statistical indices obtained from the sample; (3) The distribution of the sample mean; (4) The concept of standard error of the mean; (5) The random nature of the confidence intervals; (6) The effect of the sample size and the confidence level on the confidence intervals; (7) The concept of coverage regarding the confidence intervals.}, keywords = {Computer simulation}, keywords = {Teaching Statistics}, keywords = {Sampling distribution of the mean}, keywords = {Confidence intervals}, keywords = {Innovación docente}, title = {NSamples - Simulation of random variables with normal distribution}, author = {Femia Marzo, Pedro Jesús}, }
