How to distribute data as Gaussian?

Let's say I have 800 colors. I want to distribute it between 10 people. If I distribute it unformly, I would simply give 80 colors to each people. How can I disrubute it in a Gaussian manner? Which Matlab function can distribute 800 colors among 10 people Gaussian way?

Hi @Nadatimuj

This is just one of many possibilities to distribute the number of colors to 10 people according to the Gaussian function.

x = 1:10;
y = 161*exp(-(1/2)*((x - 5.5)/2).^2);
y = round(y);
bar(x, y)
sum(y)

ans =

800

Result:
