Default Re: mathematical curiosity (one of those again)

not sure what question you're asking. are you trying to verify using the gaussian integral formula that the area under the normal distribution curve is indeed 1? if you start with the gaussian integral formula and substitute y = (x - mu)/(sigma*sqrt2) then the normal distribution pdf becomes 1/sqrt(pi)*exp(-y^2) which integrates to 1

let me know if you were asking a different question
