normbyde {mcsm} | R Documentation |
This simple program compares a double-exponential distribution with
parameter a=1 and a double-exponential distribution with
parameter a!=1 in their approximation to the standard normal
distribution. Quite obviously, this function is not to be used when compared
when rnorm
.

The function produces a tryptich graph with the comparison of the cumulated averages, and both acf graphs.
