Remarks

Use the AndersonDarlingTest class to test whether a sample comes from a normal distribution. The Anderson-Darling test is a variation of the Kolmogorov-Smirnov test that gives more weight to the tails of the distribution. In addition, the parameters of the distribution may be estimated from the sample. This makes the test more applicable in a larger number of cases.

The Mean and StandardDeviation of the distribution may be specified, but this is not necessary.
