Using the pmvnorm function
Along with the density of multivariate normals, you often need to calculate the cumulative distributions of multivariate normals to obtain the volume of the density between two specified values. In this exercise, you will use the pmvnorm() function to calculate the cumulative distribution for specified bivariate normals.

Anleitung zur Übung
- Compute the volume under a standard bivariate normal distribution between \(\begin{pmatrix} -1\\ -1 \end{pmatrix}\) and \(\begin{pmatrix} 1 \\ 1 \end{pmatrix}\).
- Calculate the volume between \(\begin{pmatrix} -5 \\ -5\end{pmatrix}\) and \(\begin{pmatrix} 5 \\ 5 \end{pmatrix}\) for a bivariate normal with mean
