Abstract

We do some exploration to Central Limit Theorem on a real dataset. We intend to conduct this study to a real data which has non-normal distribution. Under common sense, it is known that world population density data has right-skewed distribution. A resampling mechanism is done to the original data by varying sample size to study the properties of well-known Central Limit Theorem, such as normality of the sampling distribution and reduction of the standard deviation of sample data due to larger sample size.
