How to use the application

First, choose which variable you want to check the normality:

  • Sepal.Length
  • Sepal.Width
  • Pepal.Length
  • Pepal.Width

Checking the normality with plots

You can check the normality with two types of plots:

Checking the normality with tests

You can also check the normality by using the Shapiro-Wilks test:

## 
##  Shapiro-Wilk normality test
## 
## data:  iris$Sepal.Width
## W = 0.98492, p-value = 0.1012
