Gaussian Random Variables
The sum of a random number of independent Gaussian random variables with zero mean and unit variance results in a Gaussian random variable regardless of the distribution of N (the number of variables in the sum).

Calculate the probability that the sample mean of a variable falls in some range.
+X12)/12
We now use the fact that the sum of independent, normally distributed random variables is itself a normally distributed random variable, with mean and variance equal to the sum of the means and the sum of the variances.
