To find a negative value such as –0.83, one could use a cumulative table for negative z-values [3] which yield a probability of 0.20327. But since the normal distribution curve is symmetrical, probabilities for only positive values of Z are typically given.
The log-normal distribution, describing variables which can be modelled as the product of many small independent positive variables. The Lomax distribution; The Mittag-Leffler distribution; The Nakagami distribution; The Pareto distribution, or "power law" distribution, used in the analysis of financial data and critical behavior.
Comparison of the various grading methods in a normal distribution, including: standard deviations, cumulative percentages, percentile equivalents, z-scores, T-scores. In statistics, the standard score is the number of standard deviations by which the value of a raw score (i.e., an observed value or data point) is above or below the mean value of what is being observed or measured.
In probability theory and statistics, the zeta distribution is a discrete probability distribution.If X is a zeta-distributed random variable with parameter s, then the probability that X takes the positive integer value k is given by the probability mass function
In probability theory and statistics, a normal distribution or Gaussian distribution is a type of continuous probability distribution for a real-valued random variable.The general form of its probability density function is [2] [3] = ().
A Z-test is any statistical test for which the distribution of the test statistic under the null hypothesis can be approximated by a normal distribution. Z-test tests the mean of a distribution. Z-test tests the mean of a distribution.

The distribution was independently rediscovered by the English mathematician Karl Pearson in the context of goodness of fit, for which he developed his Pearson's chi-squared test, published in 1900, with computed table of values published in (Elderton 1902), collected in (Pearson 1914, pp. xxxi–xxxiii, 26–28, Table XII).
