APPLETSOURCEDESCRIPTION
Normal DemonstrationApplets for the Cybergnostics project (West)Shows how the normal curve changes as mean and standard deviation are varied with sliders.  more
Bell CurvesWolfram Demonstrations ProjectShows change in location and shape of a normal as mean and standard deviation are varied. Requires download of Mathematica player and demo itself, good for classroom demonstration.  more
Area of a Normal DistributionWolfram Demonstrations ProjectShows a normal alongside the standard normal with z-scores and associated x values and left and right tailed probabilities shown, can vary mean, standard deviation and z-scores with a slider and view changes in both curves. Requires download of Mathematica player and demo itself, good for classroom demonstration.  more
Normal DistributionInteractive Statistics (Lind, Marchal, Wathen)Displays the change in the curve and calculates an upper tail probability for an x value as mean and standard deviation are varied.  more
Normal Probability CalculatorRossman/Chance Applet CollectionCompares graphically two user-specified normals, computes z-scores for both and calculates interior or two tailed probabilities for any values.  more
The Random Variable ExperimentVirtual Laboratories in Probability and Statistics (Siegrist, Duehring)Simulates normal distribution (or other continuous distributions) with specified mean and standard deviation (values limited) and compares mean and standard deviation of data to theoretical. NOTE: xhtml files may not run in all browsers.  more
Quantile appletVirtual Laboratories in Probability and Statistics (Siegrist, Duehring)Use like a statistical table (with graphical display) for several continuous distributions, calculates left tail probabilities from given values or vise versa. NOTE: xhtml files may not run in all browsers.  more
