Re: Significance level of a simulation

It's not needed to write what you wrote; the phrase I quoted is clear
enough.
I'll try to elaborate my question, but I know that a long post is annoying.

The process I simulate takes in input 2 parameters and outputs N integer
numbers with normal distribution (with known mean and variance).
Changing the value of the 2 parameters the N numbers can be:
1) too binned and they don't look as normally distributed (I use the KS test
to check that);
2) very well normally distributed;
3) a little binned, so that sometimes they look as normally distributed, but
sometimes they fails big the KS test (numbers not normally distributed).

I need a method which says:
when a1 <= parameter_1 <= a2 and b1 <= parameter_2 <= b2 and N < c, then the
numbers are normally distributed with a confidence of x%.
