Standardised Deviations Test

    In the standard deviations test when you set out the expected numbers of deviations in each set (-infinity, -3) , (-3, -2) , (-2, -1) , (-1, 0) (0, -1) etc,
    Is there a quick way of getting the numbers? I have been doing it with the standard Normal probability tables and doing P(z>3), P(z>2) - P(z>3), P(z>1) - P(z>2), etc etc. Then timings by the number of ages. Does anybody know if this is the right way? Seems a bit long winded to me, so wondered if I was missing a shortcut.

    Thanks. :)

    OK I just found an old thread and this seems to be the way. It isn't too bad actually considering you only need to do half of them due to symmetry. Or even less as you can find your last one between the balance of 0.5 and your total so far.
