What does guassian curve mean?

A Gaussian curve, also known as a normal distribution or bell curve, represents the distribution of a set of data points where most values cluster around a central mean, with probabilities decreasing symmetrically as you move away from the mean. The shape of the curve is characterized by its bell-like appearance, defined by its mean (average) and standard deviation (which measures the spread of the data). In many natural phenomena, such as heights or test scores, data tends to follow this distribution pattern. The Gaussian curve is fundamental in statistics, serving as a basis for various statistical methods and theories.
