2. I have data sets (measurements) and I need to know if values are normally distributed. I would like to get this information programmatically in my application and not via plotting and checking it visually myself.
1 Installing a standard solid-strip hardwood floor averages about $8 a square foot for materials, insulation and site finishing, and up to $12 a square foot for wide pine planks, or $1,150-$1,750 for a 12x12-foot room.
The average cost per square foot of a laminate floor is about $1 where the price per square foot of hardwood ranges from $5 - $8. The installation and material cost of installing a laminate floor is about $3,300 which is much different than the $4,500 average cost to install hardwood.
