ntrials, .seed ×10³;   No. of trials; and generator seed, any integer (iff 0, nonrepeatable). •
μ, σ Mean and standard deviation for base variable. •
HisType, .power h d     Histogram type (see below); and power to raise variable to. •
L, U Lower and upper specification limits. •
nkl, ymax No. of classes; and max. y (automatic iff "0").
bl, bu Lower and upper histogram boundaries. •
Show values Shows the coordinates of the graph.
  Permits to observe the behaviour of a Gaussian variable raised to an integer power (within the values proposed), via the Monte Carlo method. (The L and U values are not yet used.)
  Parameter 'HisType', for the y axis, leads to: with 'h', a "histogram" scale; and with 'd', to a "density" scale.
