Subject   st: plotting multiple normal densities
Date   Tue, 31 Aug 2004 12:59:56 +0100

I have a (mixed logit) model in which the mean and variance of 
several variables' distributions are estimated. In all cases (so far) 
these are normally distributed.

I want to plot these pdf's, so I use 'drawnorm' to draw from a 
sample with the required mean and variance.

I can then plot these individually using the 'normal' option after 
'hist', or using 'kdensity'.

However I want to plot >1 of these distributions on the same graph 
to allow visual comparison. 
Ideally it would not be a histogram, just the pdf plots. 

Can anyone advise how this is done?

thanks,
dan rigby
