Normal Distribution

Normal distribution is a continuous probability distribution. It is also called Gaussian distribution.

The normal distribution density function f(z) is called the Bell Curve because it has the shape that resembles a bell.

Standard normal distribution table is used to find the area under the f(z) function in order to find the probability of a specified range of distribution.

Normal distribution function

When random variable X has normal distribution,

The probability density function and cumulative distribution function of the normal distribution:

 

Probability density function (pdf)

The probability density function is given by:

f_{X}(x)=\frac{1}{\sigma\sqrt{2\pi}}e^{-\frac{(x-\mu)^2}{2\sigma^2}}

X is the random variable.

μ is the mean value.

σ is the standard deviation (std) value.

e = 2.7182818... constant.

π = 3.1415926... constant.

 

Cumulative distribution function

The cumulative distribution function is given by:

F_{X}(x)=\frac{1}{\sigma\sqrt{2\pi}}\int_{-\infty}^{x}e^{-\frac{(y-\mu)^2}{2\sigma^2}}dy

X is the random variable.

μ is the mean value.

σ is the standard deviation (std) value.

e = 2.7182818... constant.

π = 3.1415926... constant.
