x,q
| vector of quantiles. |
p
| vector of probabilites. |
n
| number of observations. |
mean
| vector of means. |
sd
| vector of standard deviations. |
mean
and standard deviation equal to sd
.
dnorm
gives the density, pnorm
gives the distribution
function qnorm
gives the quantile function and rnorm
generates random deviates.
If mean
or sd
are not specified they assume the default
values of 0
and 1
, respectively.
The normal distribution has density
f(x) = 1/(sqrt(2 pi) sigma) e^-((x - mu)^2/(2 sigma^2))
where mu is the mean of the distribution and sigma the standard deviation.runif
