Title: RE: When Can We Really Use CLT & Student t
It has been a long time; so if I am wrong, please fan the flames gently.
The derivation of the t distribution is from the ratio of a Normal(0,1) over the square root of a ChiSquare divided by its degrees of freedom.
t = [(x

As I understand it, the Central Limit Theorem (CLT) guarantees that the
distribution of sample means is normally distributed regardless of the
distribution of the underlying data as long as the sample size is large
enough and the population standard deviation is known.
