norm_dist1D()

Returns a normal distribution: either its probability density function (pdf), or cumulative distribution function (cdf)

Syntax
y = norm_dist1D(data, m, s, absS, is_cdf)

Arguments
Name Description Range Type Default Required
data number or a one-dimensional data (-∞, ∞) real yes
m mean for the normal distribution (-∞, ∞) integer, real yes
s standard deviation for the normal distribution (-∞, ∞) integer, real yes
absS specifies absolute or relative standard deviation [0, ∞) † integer 1 no
is_cdf specifies cdf or pdf of normal distribution [0, ∞) † † integer 0 no
† When absS is not equal to "0", s is the absolute standard deviation; otherwise, s is the relative standard deviation † † When is_cdf is not equal to "0", the function returns the cdf of the normal distribution. Otherwise, it returns the pdf of the normal distribution.

Examples

X = 0.5
X_pdf = norm_dist1D(X, 0, 1, 1, 0)
X_cdf = norm_dist1D(X,0, 1, 1, 1)
XX = [-3.9::0.1::3.9]
XX_pdf = norm_dist1D(XX,5.0, 0.5,1,0)
XX_cdf = norm_dist1D(XX,5.0,0.1,0,1)
