# Three Formats of Distributions
|
||||
|
||||
_Author: Ozzie Gooen_

_Written on: Feb 19, 2022_
|
||||
|
||||
Probability distributions have several subtle possible formats. Three important ones that we deal with in Squiggle are symbolic, sample set, and graph formats.
|
||||
|
||||
_Symbolic_ formats are just the math equations. `normal(5,3)` is the symbolic representation of a normal distribution.
