What is different between these two codes and when can we use them
I use K-S test code in R to check normaliity for data that is generated from N(1,6) of size 5
#the first code is
x<-rnorm(5,1,6)
ks.test(x,"pnorm",1,6)
#the second code is
ks.test(x,"pnorm",mean(x),sd(x)) ```
1,6using the theoretical moments of the distribution versusmean(x),sd(x)using the empirical moments of the sample. $\endgroup$mean(x)is not1andsd(x)is not6. $\:\:$ *(certainly it would be something you should do before posting, since it would count under the required "search and research" that is mentioned in the help here) $\endgroup$
