The central limit theorem states that if are independent and identically distributed random variables with finite mean and finite positive variance , then
Here the arrow means convergence in distribution: for every real , the probability that the expression on the left is at most tends to , the standard normal distribution function. If , the variables equal almost surely and their sample mean is exactly .
