function f = spm_Npdf(x,u,v)
% Probability Density Function (PDF) of univariate Normal distribution
% FORMAT f = spm_Npdf(x,u,v)
%
% x - ordinates
% u - mean              [Defaults to 0]
% v - variance  (v>0)   [Defaults to 1]
% f - pdf of N(u,v) at x

% spm_Npdf returns the Probability Density Function (PDF) for the
% univariate Normal (Gaussian) family of distributions.
%
% Definition:
%--------------------------------------------------------------------------
% Let random variable X have a Normal distribution with mean u and
% variance v, then Z~N(u,v). The Probability Density Function (PDF) of
% the Normal (sometimes called Gaussian) family is f(x), defined on all
% real x, given by: (See Evans et al., Ch29)
%
%                 1           ( (x-u)^2 )
%    f(r) = ------------ x exp| ------  |
%           sqrt(v*2*pi)      (   2v    )
%
% The PDF of the standard Normal distribution, with zero mean and unit
% variance, Z~N(0,1), is commonly referred to as \phi(z).
