If you like chocolate, this proof will feel like the multi-layered magic of a Mars bar

There are, in essence, two ways to prove the Central Limit Theorem. The first one is empirical while the second one employs the quietly perfect precision of mathematical thought. I’ll cover both methods in this article.
