IRIS Toolbox Reference Manual

## normal

Create function proportional to log of Normal or Student distribution

#### Syntax

    F = logdist.normal(Mean,Std,Df)

#### Input arguments

- `Mean` [ numeric ] - Mean of the normal distribution.

- `Std` [ numeric ] - Std dev of the normal distribution.

- `W` [ numeric ] - Optional input containing mixture weights.

Multivariate cases are supported. Evaluating multiple vectors as an array of column vectors is supported.

If the mean and standard deviation are cell arrays then the distribution will be a mixture of normals. In this case the third argument is the vector of mixture weights.

#### Output arguments

- `F` [ function_handle ] - Function handle returning a value proportional to the log of Normal density.

#### Description

See help on the logdisk package for details on using the function handle `F`.
