Functions to compute the probability density function, cumulative distribution function, and quantile function for the Normal distribution.
Usage
normal_distribution(mean = 0, sd = 1)
normal_pdf(x, mean = 0, sd = 1)
normal_lpdf(x, mean = 0, sd = 1)
normal_cdf(x, mean = 0, sd = 1)
normal_lcdf(x, mean = 0, sd = 1)
normal_quantile(p, mean = 0, sd = 1)Value
A single numeric value with the computed probability density, log-probability density, cumulative distribution, log-cumulative distribution, or quantile depending on the function called.
