Property Value

The purpose of this property is to allow calculations to be simplified when a probability distribution is symmetrical around the mean. A value of true always indicates that the distribution is symmetrical. A value of false, however, only indicates that the assumption of symmetry should not be made. It does not indicate that the distribution is necessarily skewed. For example, the cost of verifying symmetry may be greater than the gains from the simplified calculations.

By default, a distribution is not assumed to be symmetrical.
