NORM random value from a Normal distribution

Syntax:

    NORM(<real expression>, <real expression> / <,stream> /);

Returns a REAL value of a random variable whose probability function is a normal function with mean equal to the first <real expression> and deviation equal to the second <real expression>, computed with random numbers taken from the stream indicated by <stream>. This is an integer from 1 to 10. If omitted, 1 is assumed. The algorithm may produce negative values.
