The sum of n random, independent variables having finite variances will tend to be normally distributed as the number of variables approaches infinitely regardless of the manner in which the individual variables are distributed. It is through this theorem that the normal distribution, which occurs frequently in observations of natural and social phenomena acquires its central importance in the theories of probability and sampling.
