In R, what is the underlying function that creates this output?
pnorm(0.079)
0.5314837
For context I want to determine what value x should be pnorm(x) so that the result is equal to 0.50.
I can't do that unless I know the underlying formula

If you want the inverse of the `pnorm` function, use the `qnorm` function. For example `qnorm(.5)` return 0 because the normal distribution is symmetric about 0. See the `?pnorm` help page for more info. The explicit density is also given there as well. – MrFlick Mar 26 '22 at 22:38

that worked, thank you! Can you add this as an answer? – nak5120 Mar 26 '22 at 22:41
