Hi all

This is basically just a maths problem. I'm looking to fill an array with a  
Gaussian curve and be able to control the sigma value (and any other relevant 
variables), but my math skills aren't good enough! I tried this, based off of 
the standard function listed on Wikipedia:

expr $f2 * pow (2.71828, -(($f1-$f3)^2/(2*$f4^2)))

I think in expr, ^ means bitwise xor instead of power.  I'd rewrite it as:

expr $f2*exp(-($f1-$f3)*($f1-$f3)/(2*$f4*$f4))


but there must be a mistake because I'm not getting the right curve.

Can anyone help?

(NB: The point is to find a replacement for the [gauss] external, using the 
nice new [array random] function).
