or in operations that use the Distribution command in the applications.
For details about using list data within the Distribution function, see “Specifying Arguments
within the Distribution Function” (page 2-8-48).

Normal Distribution
Normal Probability Density
Menu: [Distribution]-[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
