Method of moments (probability theory)

In probability theory, the method of moments is a way of proving convergence in distribution by proving convergence of a sequence of moment sequences. Suppose X is a random variable and that all of the moments E ⁡ ( X k ) {\displaystyle \operatorname {E} (X^{k})\,} exist.
