If $$\left\{ x \right\}$$ is a continuous, real valued random variable defined over the interval $$\left( { - \infty ,\,\, \pm \infty } \right)$$ and its occurrence is defined by the density function given as: $$f\left( x \right) = {1 \over {\sqrt {2\pi * b} }}{e^{ - {1 \over 2}{{\left( {{{x - a} \over b}} \right)}^2}}}$$ where $$'a'$$ and $$'b'$$ are the statistical attributes of the random variable $$\left\{ x \right\}$$. The value of the integral $$\int\limits_{ - \infty }^a {{1 \over {\sqrt {2\pi * b} }}{e^{ - {1 \over 2}{{\left( {{{x - a} \over b}} \right)}^2}}}} dx\,\,\,$$ is
