Plotting Normal Distributions with PGFPLOTS (Unlocking LaTeX Graphics - Video 51)
In this episode of Unlocking LaTeX Graphics, applied mathematician Tammy Kolda guides viewers through plotting the probability distribution function for normal distributions using PGFPLOTS. The tutorial covers essential features such as setting up the document preamble, defining default axis and plot styles, refining axis limits and tick mark formats, and enhancing legends. Tammy also demonstrates how to plot multiple normal distributions with different means and variances, increasing sample numbers for smoother curves, and more. Important commands and tips are included. Watch, like, and subscribe for more LaTeX tutorials, and check the description for the Overleaf document link and related resources.
