| Test | Leaves | Stem | Roots |
| N | 25 | 25 | 25 |
| Shapiro–Wilk W | 0.2256 | 0.4168 | 0.4686 |
| p(normal) | 1.76 × 10−7 | 6.21 × 10−6 | 1.86 × 10−5 |
| p (Monte Carlo) | 0.0001 | 0.0002 | 0.0001 |
| Conclusion: the three distribution are not Gaussian (normal). We must use a non-parametric test. | |||
