μ, σ

[X]

Mean and st. dev. for each item, X. •

X_a, X_b

[X] (X_a < x < X_b)

Truncation X_a (min) and X_b (max) for item. •

y_max

[X]⁻¹ (Automatic, iff 0 [not 0.])

Maximum y axis value for graph. •

Show values

Shows the coordinates of the graph. •

Computes and plots a truncated Gaussian distribution, in its interval X_a < X < X_b.

(The parameters μ, σ, X_a and X_b all have the same units as X, i.e., [X], whereas the pdf, y, has [X]⁻¹.)
