If a random variable (RV) X is distributed Normally with mean m and standard deviation sthen

Z = (X - m)/s is the corresponding Normal variable which is distributed with mean 0 and variance 1. The distribution of X is difficult to compute but that for Z is readily available. It can be used to find the probabilities of the RV lying in different domains and thereby for testing hypotheses.
