The Standard Unit Normal and Probability Computations

It is often helpful to work with a "standard unit normal" distribution, which is a Gaussian with zero mean and unit standard deviation. It is possible to transform other normal distributions into this standard form, through a simple mean-centering and scaling procedure, after which it is easy to compute probabilities. For example, if I want to know what percentile my height is in the USA, I could first transform the normal distribution of heights to standard unit normal, and then see where my transformed height lies. This will allow me to easily compute various quantities.
