Combining quantum mechanics and the normal distribution in statistics we study the coherent state from the point of view of statistics and by using the integration method within ordered product of operators. We find that the pure coherent state |z >z| exhibits a bivariate normal distribution of randon variables in (q,p) phase space, z=(q+ip)/√2, with a real k-parameter which is related to the quantization scheme, and the correlation coefficient is ik. For k=±1, |z >z| respectively is arranged as P-ordering (all P stand on the left of all Q) and Q-ordering (all Q stand on the left of all P), while in the case of k=0, |z >z| is arranged as the Weyl-ordering. In the cases of P-ordering and Q-ordering, in the classical correspondence function of |z >z||z=(q+ip)/√2 the bivariates (q,p) are correlated, only in the case of Weyl correspondece, (q,p) are independent. In other words, the Weyl ordering of operators is liable to decouple the correlation in bivariates.
