A bell curve is a symmetrical bell-shaped graph curve that represents the arrangement of values, how often something occurs, or probability of occurance of a set of data. It slopes downward from a point in the middle corresponding to the average also called mean value, or the maximum probability. Gather all the results of an IQ test and make a graph of them, would create a bell curve with average IQ being the mean value. The more results or values, the better the bell curve. It can be made with a line graph or a bar graph.
