To display the DISTR DRAW menu, press y [DISTR] ~.
DISTR DRAW instructions draw various types of density
functions, shade the area specified by lowerbound and
upperbound, and display the computed area value.
To clear the drawings, select
1:ClrDraw from the DRAW menu
(Chapter 8).
Note: Before you execute a DISTR DRAW instruction, you must set
the window variables so that the desired distribution fits the screen.

Û( Shades Û distribution.
Note: L1Ã¥99 and 1Ã¥99 specify infinity. If you want to view the area left
of upperbound, for example, specify lowerbound=L1Ã¥99.
ShadeNorm( draws the normal density function specified by
mean
m
and standard deviation
s
and shades the area between
lowerbound and upperbound. The defaults are
m
=0 and
s
=1.
ShadeNorm(lowerbound,upperbound[,m,s])
Note: For this example,
Xmin = 55
Xmax = 72
Ymin = L.05
Ymax = .2
