Univariate Normality Tests using Python

How to test the assumption of univariate normality in Python.

The Kolmogorov-Smirnov One-sample Test or the Shapiro-Wilk tests the assumption of normality for subsequent parametric analysis. This video demonstrates what type of variables are relevant for multivariate analysis using a dataset derived from a survey instrument. The survey instrument is presented showing the items measuring the variables for the test. The dataset is shown within the statistical program being used for the test. The procedures for test are demonstrated. The output for the test is described.
