function F = spm_Ncdf(x,u,v)
% Cumulative Distribution Function (CDF) for univariate Normal distributions
% FORMAT F = spm_Ncdf(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 (Lower tail probability)
%__________________________________________________________________________
%
% spm_Ncdf implements the Cumulative Distribution Function (CDF) for
% the Normal (Gaussian) family of distributions.
%
% Definition:
%--------------------------------------------------------------------------
% The CDF F(x) of a Normal distribution with mean u and variance v is
% the probability that a random realisation X from this distribution
% will be less than x. F(x)=Pr(X<=x) for X~N(u,v). See Evans et al.,
% Ch29 for further definitions and variate relationships.
%
% If X~N(u,v), then Z=(Z-u)/sqrt(v) has a standard normal distribution,
% Z~N(0,1). The CDF of the standard normal distribution is known as \Phi(z).
%
% (KWorsley) For extreme variates with abs(z)>6 where z=(x-u)/sqrt(v), the
% approximation \Phi(z) \approx exp(-z^2/2)/(z*sqrt(2*pi)) may be useful.
%
% Algorithm:
%--------------------------------------------------------------------------
% The CDF for a standard N(0,1) Normal distribution, \Phi(z), is
% related to the error function by: (Abramowitz & Stegun, 26.2.29)
%
%       \Phi(z) = 0.5 + erf(z/sqrt(2))/2
%
% MATLAB's implementation of the error function is used for computation.

%-Initialise result to zeros

%-Only defined for strictly positive variance v. Return NaN if undefined.

%-Non-zero where defined
