kscrit =
0.1756
Since the critical
kscrit
value of 0.1756 is well above the measured
kscalc
value of 0.0757, we cannot reject the null hypothesis without another cause.
We can therefore conclude that our data follow a Gaussian distribution.
Alternatively, we can apply the function
kstest
to the sample. Typing
