[QUOTE=".Scott, post: 5928897, member: 489053"] I am not sure exactly what you are referring to. But I think this is an example of what you are asking about: The function for the probability function of a normal distribution is shown here: [IMG]https://wikimedia.org/api/rest_v1/media/math/render/svg/ffe7c5cbdecda556bf2170e31f1f9a127b74e239[/IMG] It decreases exponentially as |(x-u)/sigma| increases. It's easy to see why. Every increase in a standard deviation from mean compounds the unlikelihood - an exponential process. [/QUOTE]
