Description
</h2>

<p><CODE>demgauss</CODE> provides a simple illustration of the generation of
data from Gaussian distributions. It first samples from a
one-dimensional distribution using <CODE>randn</CODE>, and then plots a
normalized histogram estimate of the distribution using <CODE>histp</CODE>
together with the true density calculated using <CODE>gauss</CODE>.

<p><CODE>demgauss</CODE> then demonstrates sampling from a Gaussian distribution
in two dimensions. It creates a mean vector and a covariance matrix,
and then plots contours of constant density using the function
<CODE>gauss</CODE>. A sample of points drawn from this distribution, obtained
using the function <CODE>gsamp</CODE>, is then superimposed on the contours.
