One of the main reasons for that is the central limit theorem clt that we will discuss later in the book.
To find the cdf of the standard normal distribution, we. Futhermore, the area under the curve of a pdf between negative infinity and x is equal to the value of x on the cdf. To give you an idea, the clt states that if you add a large number of random variables, the distribution of the sum will be approximately normal under certain conditions. As it is the slope of a cdf, a pdf must always be positive.
The pdf stands for probability density function and the command normalpdf returns the height of the curve at the particular point entered which is of very limited use.
