Continuous Probability Distributions

Probability distributions are of two types, which are continuous probability distributions and discrete probability distributions. A continuous probability distribution contains an infinite number of values. For example, if time is infinite: you could count from 0 to a trillion seconds, billion seconds, so on indefinitely. A discrete probability distribution consists of only a countable set of possible values.

Normal Distribution

Suppose we had to design a bathroom weighing scale, how would we decide what should be the range of the weighing machine? Would we take the highest recorded human weight in history and use that as the upper limit for our weighing scale? This may not be a great idea as the sensitivity of the scale would get reduced if the range is too large. At the same time, if we keep the upper limit too low, it may not be usable for a large percentage of the population!

2. Write a program that models a cashier at a store. The program will take two numbers as input. Firstly, the cost of an item ($20.00 or less). Secondly, the amount of money given to the cashier ($20.00 or less). The program should output the change given in 10 dollar bills, 5 dollar bills, 1 dollar bills, quarters, dimes, nickels, or pennies. You should output the highest denominations possible. For example, if the item costs $5.20 and the cashier is given $10 then the change should be 4 dollar bills 3 quarters 1 nickle
