Because they are so important, they shouldnt be buried into a very long lesson on monte carlo methods, but we will use them in the next coming chapters and thus, they need to be introduced at this point in the lesson. Normaldistribution represents a normal distribution with zero mean and unit standard deviation. Notice, when the mean and standard deviations are equal, how the pdf correlates with the normal cdf in the section above. For those tasks we use probability density functions pdf and cumulative density functions cdf. The cdf function for the normal distribution returns the probability that an observation from the normal distribution, with the location parameter.
