(a <- replicate(5,rnorm(10)))
colMeans(a)
should get you started.

I dont know how to get the mean value of all of them... because I

always shows me the same values, basically I dont know how to
replicate the
funcion many times.

Hello guys, I am stuck here:
How do I make 1000 samples of n = 10 observations from an
Exponential
distribution and then compute the mean for all those 1000 samples?
Basically I need to prove the Central Limit theorem, which states:
http://www.nabble.com/file/p22664113/d175f06cbf200bd52a2c27a2e56dc594.png
Where the Sn is sum of random variables, n we have from the
question, mu
is
mean and (sigma)^2 is variance.
I am having trouble setting up the function to do this.
Any help apreciated!
