see -help density functions- or -help functions-
Yes, the cumulative normal density function, normprob(), still works but is out of date, no longer documented, and has been replaced by normal(). Am not sure whether tprob() ever existed? - doesn't seem to work and is not documented in any case. ttail(n,t) is documented under help for functions.
