We're glad you came by, but you might find what you're looking for elsewhere. TI-Basic Developer is not the site it once was. While its information on commands and other calculator features remains almost second-to-none, its forum, archives, and even hosting service, Wikidot, have been decaying for years. The calculator community would love to see what you're working on, or help you in your next coding adventure, but TI-Basic Developer is no longer the place to do it. Instead, you should head over to Cemetech (primarily American) or TI-Planet (primarily international). Both are active, well-established forums with their own archives, chatrooms, reference material, and abundant coding tools and resources. We'll see you there, we hope. |

normalpdf( is the normal (Gaussian) probability density function.
Since the normal distribution is continuous, the value of normalpdf( doesn't represent an actual probability - in fact, one of the only uses for this command is to draw a graph of the normal curve. You could also use it for various calculus purposes, such as finding inflection points.
The command can be used in two ways: normalpdf(x) will evaluate the standard normal p.d.f. (with mean at 0 and a standard deviation of 1) at x, and normalpdf(x,μ,σ) will work for an arbitrary normal curve, with mean μ and standard deviation σ.
Formulas
For the standard normal distribution, normalpdf(x) is defined as
