normaalijakaumaiseksi
Normaalijakaumaiseksi is a Finnish adjective that translates to "normally distributed" or "following a normal distribution" in English.

This distribution is characterized by its symmetrical shape, with the majority of data points clustered around the mean, and fewer data points as they move further away from the mean in either direction.
A variable is considered normaalijakaumaiseksi if its probability distribution can be approximated by the normal distribution
If data is not normaalijakaumaiseksi, non-parametric statistical methods, which do not assume a specific distribution, may
