Jelaskan Sajarah dari Sebaran normal dalam bahasa sunda

Distribusi normal mimiti dikenalkeun ku de Moivre dina artikel taun 1733 (dicitak ulang edisi kaduana dina The Doctrine of Chances, 1738) dina kontek "pendekatan" sebaran binomial keur n anu loba.  Hasil de Moivre diteruskeun ku Laplace dina bukuna Analytical Theory of Probabilities (1812), mangsa kiwari disebut Theorem of de Moivre-Laplace.

Laplace ngagunakeun distribusi normal keur analysis of errors dina percobaanna. Method of least squares nu kacida pentingna dikenalkeun ku Legendre dina taun 1805. Gauss, ogé ngakukeun yén manéhna geus maké métodeu  anu sarua ti mimiti taun 1794, justified it rigorously in 1809 by assuming a normal distribution of the errors.

Istilah "bell curve" ngacu ka Jouffret nu ngagunakeun watesan "bell surface" dina taun 1872 keur bivariate normal dina komponen bébas (independent). Istilah "sebaran normal" "ditemukan" sacara sewang-sewangan ku Charles S. Peirce, Francis Galton jeung Wilhelm Lexis kira-kira taun 1875 [Stigler]. This terminology is unfortunate, since it reflects and encourages the fallacy that "everything is Gaussian". (See the discussion of "occurrence" below).

Yen sebaran disebut sebaran normal atawa Gaussian, ngagantikeun sebaran de Moivrean,

is just an instance of Stigler's law of eponymy:

"No scientific discovery is named after its original discoverer".
