MATLAB: Normal distribution from data

Question

is there a more efficient way to derive a normal distribution.

%  Deriving Normal Distribution From the Data
  x=0:1:12;
  m=mean(Data);
  s=std(Data);
  p=(1/(s*sqrt(2*pi)))*exp((-(x-m).^2)/(2*s^2));

Answer 1

Here is another suggestion:

 y=pdf('Normal',x,m,s);
 plot(x,y);
