Hello,

I am trying to test a dataset for nomal distribution. I am novice to coding so, I do not quite understand what I am doing wrong. My coding is below. I would appreciate suggestion on correcting the code, so that I can get an output. Thanks in advance.

Input Site $ Ace Anthra Benzoaa Benzoapy
Benzobflu Benzoghi Benzokfluo Chry
Dibenzo Fluoran Fluorene Indeno123

Here are the notes that pop up from my coding. I am getting invalid datalines and I do not know how to correct this issue.
