Hi
I was wondering if there is any way to create my own bell shape function. I want a function which have a bell shaped but it's pick is not at zero (y=0). I need it to start from zero and stay zero for few points e.g.20 and then starts going up (e.g. pick y=5) and then coming down to zero and stay zero for few points again. Does anyone can help with this?

Hi, yes, there is an easy way to do this. However, I suggest that you read the IDL online help, and play around with your equation. It's better to learn how to do these things yourself, instead of relying on the newsgroup. "Give a man a fish..."
Cheers,
