Shape of Distribution

[sashakk]

So I am a little bit unsure about terminology here...

I have a histogram of minutes on the x and frequency on the y. I have 4 data points that I check frequency. All are likely frequent. What is the math term to describe the shape of the distribution?


I've worked with distrubutions in class, but just never really came accross one like this. Not normal distribution?

Do you have a bit more detail about those 4 data points??

If you are saying that all four points have the same frequency, you are describing a "discrete uniform" distribution. A "normal" distribution is a "bell-shaped" curve.
