I think you will find the example boost_1_41_0\libs\math\example\normal_misc_examples.cpp will guide you on how to do just this. There is a pdf version of the docs available too. (If you just want to make a few calculations, the (Windows only - with Windows Installer) distribution explorer gives you a convenient 'calculator' - see http://tinyurl.com/yfabgpg HTH Paul --- Paul A.
