measure the distances among all points

When you say distances among all points, does that mean you want the distance between any pair of two points? Or all possible paths through all possible points?

You can certainly do the former, assuming you don't have too many points, otherwise the amount of distances will become simply too large. Once you have a list of distances, you can then perform some statistics on them. I don't understand how the normal distribution comes into it, the distribution will be whatever it is due to the point locations, whether or not that distribution ends up being 'normal' is not up to you any more.

Sorry, forgot to upload the file I made...

thanks for the reply

I have A Cloud of points and I want to create a surface.
I thought to calculate all the distances of all the points, and then, to connect the dots through lines to create a surface.
I wanted to use the normal Distrubution to create a "domain" in order to connect only specific points

If you want to create a surface through an unordered of points, can't you use Patch?

I did the cone of vision (human eye), and through the intersection get a point cloud, via patch does not build anything to me, so I am trying through lines.
