Here is something for when classes start next month.

sample is an educational program for teaching about sampling distributions.
It lets you provide a distribution from which it will graphically display
the means of samples of sizes of your choice.

Posted to net.sources is the source code for sample and a mildly instructive
manual entry.  I think the program might be useful for an introductory
statistics course lab demonstration.  A demonstration shell script,
with some example distributions, are also included.

Does anyone have the source code for this?  I never saw it on net.sources.
