The Cauchy-Lorentz distribution deals with variables following this curve, while the Central Limit Theorem states that the sum of many random variables follows this distribution. It is only valid when the mode is roughly equal to the mean, and it is defined by a mean and standard deviation. Name this distribution often used to measure intelligence, the formal name for the “Bell Curve.”
