Note that the Y-axis of this chart goes from 0 to 1. We can also graph this in a similar manner to the probability density function and create a Line Chart from the Charts section of the Insert tab. TRUE – This is a predefined input for the NORM.DIST function which tells Excel to calculate the cumulative distribution.StdDev – This is the standard deviation of the normal distributed.Mean – This is the mean of the normal distribution.X – This is any number from the distribution.The formula involves calculus but thankfully Excel’s NORM.DIST function will do this calculation for us. This is the probability that a random value from the distribution is less than a given value x. Is it possible to create a set of normally distributed values in Excel? Yes, it is, but we will need to look at the cumulative distribution function F(x)=P(X<=x) and it's inverse function. Create a Normally Distributed Set of Random Numbers in Excel We can see the result is a nice bell shaped curve centered around the mean value. If we select our table then go to the Insert tab and select a Line Chart from the Charts section. f(X) – This is the result of our normal density function evaluated at X.

X – This is a series of real numbers that will appear on our X-axis which we will evaluate our normal density function on.
We can graph the normal probability density function in Excel by setting up a table with two columns of values. Graphing the Normal Probability Density Function
