Summary
| Description |
English: Histogram with a multimodal shape (three peaks). The bars are the expected counts for 1,000 observations from a mixture of three normal distributions, each with standard deviation 0.7: 30% with mean −4, 40% with mean 0 and 30% with mean 4. The bins have width 0.5 and run from −6 to 6. The dashed curve is the mixture density scaled to the same counts (1,000 × 0.5 × density). A key below the chart names the bars and the curve.
Counts, left to right: 4, 18, 48, 79, 79, 48, 18, 5, 6, 24, 64, 105, 105, 64, 24, 6, 5, 18, 48, 79, 79, 48, 18, 4. Of the distribution, 0.13% lies outside the plotted range. One of a set of six: see File:Histogram shape - symmetric, unimodal.svg. |
