Question: Suppose you simulate a gambling situation where you place many bets. On each bet, the distribution of your net winnings (loss if negative) is highly skewed to the left because there are some possibilities of really large losses but not much upside potential. Your only simulation output is the average of the results of all the bets. If you run @RISK with many iterations and look at the resulting histogram of this output, what will it look like? Why?
