The webbed version of the Concise Encyclopedia of Mathematics CD-ROM by Eric W. Weisstein: http://hades.ph.tn.tudelft.nl/Internal/PHServices/Documentation/MathWorld/math/math/g/g084.htm Scroll down the page to (49) and (50), which derives the result you are looking for. |

I would add that if you are looking for Mathworld, the correct url is: http://mathworld.wolfram.com/GaussianDistribution.html The one nauster-ga gives is a (unauthorized) mirror of Mathworld that was created when Eric Weisstein was having legal problems with the publishers of the encyclopedia. But now that the legal problems are somewhat resolved, the main site is back in operation. Anyway both links have the solution you are looking for - I think that's as good as you'll get unless an enthusiast decides to give you a >$2 answer :) |
