Hi, Daniweb.
I have this hobby project I'm playing with where I need to generate data for a MonteCarlo simulation.

The data needs to fit within a bell-curve around a given mean with a standard-deviation.

I'm trying to figure out which random distribution system I need to use and how to use it.

Disclaimer: It's been at least 3 years since I took Statistics and I barely remember what a Z-score is. Be kind in your replies.

EDIT: Every. Single. Time.

It was called "normal distribution." Who knew?
