Maximum Likelihood For the Normal Distribution, step-by-step!!!

Calculating the maximum likelihood estimates for the normal distribution shows you why we use the mean and standard deviation define the shape of the curve. NOTE: This is another follow up to the StatQuests on Probability vs Likelihood    • Probability is not Likelihood. Find o...   and Maximum Likelihood:    • Maximum Likelihood, clearly explained!!!   Viewers asked for worked out examples, and this one is super mathy, but I just couldn't say "no"!
