SYNOPSIS

SUBROUTINE NORCDF(X,Cdf)

       REAL(kind=wp),intent(out) :: Cdf
       REAL(kind=wp),intent(in)  :: X

DESCRIPTION

NORCDF(3f) computes the cumulative distribution function value for the normal (Gaussian) distribution with mean = 0 and standard deviation = 1.
This distribution is defined for all X and has the probability density function
       f(X) = (1/sqrt(2*pi))*exp(-X*X/2)

INPUT ARGUMENTS

X The value at which the cumulative distribution function is to be evaluated.

OUTPUT ARGUMENTS

CDF The cumulative distribution function value.

EXAMPLES

Sample program:

   program demo_norcdf
   !@(#) line plotter graph of cumulative distribution function
   use M_datapac, only : norcdf, plott, label
   implicit none
   real,allocatable  :: x(:), y(:)
   integer           :: i
      call label(’norcdf’)
      x=[(real(i),i=-100,100,1)]
      if(allocated(y))deallocate(y)
      allocate(y(size(x)))
      do i=1,size(x)
         call norcdf(x(i)/10.0,y(i))
      enddo
      call plott(x,y,size(x))
   end program demo_norcdf

Results:
