NORMDIST
The NORMDIST function returns the normal distribution of the specied function form.
NORMDIST(num, average, stdev, form-type)
 num: The number to be evaluated. num is a number value.
 average: The average of the distribution. average is a number value representing
the known average (arithmetic mean) rate at which events occur.
 stdev: The standard deviation of the population. stdev is a number value and must
be greater than 0.
 form-type: A value that indicates which form of the exponential function to
provide.
cumulative form (TRUE or 1): Return the value of the cumulative distribution
function form.
probability density form (FALSE or 0): Return the value of the probability density
function form.
Usage Notes
If  average is 0, stdev is 1, and form-type is TRUE, NORMDIST returns the same value as
the cumulative standard normal distribution returned by NORMSDIST.
Examples
=NORMDIST(22, 15, 2.5, 1) returns 0.997444869669572, the cumulative distribution form.
=NORMDIST(22, 15, 2.5, 0) returns 0.00316618063319199, the probability density form.
