function y = normpdf(x,mu,sigma)
%NORMPDF Normal probability density function (pdf).
%   Y = NORMPDF(X,MU,SIGMA) Returns the normal pdf with mean, MU, 
%   and standard deviation, SIGMA, at the values in X. 
%
%   The size of Y is the common size of the input arguments. A scalar input  
%   functions as a constant matrix of the same size as the other inputs.     
%
%   Default values for MU and SIGMA are 0 and 1 respectively.
