Let be a set of
independent random variates and each
have an arbitrary probability distribution
with mean
and a finite variance
. Then the normal form variate
![]() |
(1) |
has a limiting cumulative distribution function which approaches a normal distribution.
Under additional conditions on the distribution of the addend, the probability density itself is also normal (Feller 1971) with mean and variance
. If conversion to normal form is not performed, then the variate
![]() |
(2) |
is normally distributed with and
.
Kallenberg (1997) gives a six-line proof of the central limit theorem. For an elementary, but slightly more cumbersome proof of the central limit theorem, consider the inverse Fourier transform of .

The "fuzzy" central limit theorem says that data which are influenced by many small and unrelated random effects are approximately normally distributed.
