Olympio:
I used the Minitab menus to produce the following code
and graph the standard normal density. To do other densities
you need to change the range of values appropriately and
change the density calculated and stored.
Hope this helps.

MTB Name c1 = 'z'
MTB Set 'z'
DATA 1( -4 : 4 / .01 )1 # Could shorten to -4:4/.01 Change for other
densities
DATA End.
MTB Name c2 = 'Density'
MTB PDF 'z' 'Density'; # change for other densities
SUBC Normal 0.0 1.0.# change for other densities
MTB Plot 'Density'*'z';
SUBC Connect; # Connect as a smooth curve
SUBC ScFrame; # not needed
SUBC ScAnnotation; # not needed
SUBC Reference 2 0. # added to put a nice base on the curve

Friends:
How Minitab can show the Density Function of a variable? Can the
program calculate this one and show the formula?
Thanks
Olympio
