See more:

X is a standard normal random variable N(0,1). Write a piece of code to compute the probability P(-0.3<x<2.1). your code should print out the probability, rounded to 6 decimal places.

What I have tried:

Python

x = np.linspace(-0.3,2.1)
prob1 = stats.norm.cdf(x,loc=0,scale=1)
output=round(prob,6)
print(output)

Solution 1

I would write it this way

Python

from scipy.stats import norm
prob0 = norm.cdf(-0.3)
prob1 = norm.cdf(2.1)
output=round((prob1-prob0), 6)
print(output)
