Normal Distribution
Normal Probability Density
Menu: [Distribution]-[Normal PD][Distribution]-[Normal PD]Normal PD]]
Description: This command calculates the probability density of normal distribution from a
specified
x
value. Normal probability density is used for normal distribution.
(
σ
> 0)
Definition of Terms
x
: data value
σ
: population standard deviation (
σ
> 0)
μ
: population mean
Specifying
σ
= 1 and
μ
= 0 produces standard normal distribution.
Calculation Result Output
prob
: normal probability density
Example
Data : 37.5
Population standard deviation : 2
Population mean : 35
