Visualization of Normal Distribution

#Shorts The Galton board, also known as the Galton box or quincunx or bean machine, is a device invented by Sir Francis Galton to demonstrate the central limit theorem, in particular that with sufficient sample size the binomial distribution approximates a normal distribution. The Galton board has a bunch of balls on top of a series of evenly spaced pegs and slots at the bottom. When released, the balls fall through those pegs into the slots and get normally distributed, accumulating to form a bell-shaped curve.
