function [ldens,Dldens,D2ldens] = lpdfnorm(x,a,b)
% Evaluates the logged UNIVARIATE GAUSSIAN PDF at x.
%
% INPUTS
% x [double] m*n matrix of locations,
% a [double] m*n matrix or scalar, First GAUSSIAN distribution parameters (expectation)
% b [double] m*n matrix or scalar, Second GAUSSIAN distribution parameters (standard deviation).
%
% OUTPUTS
% ldens [double] m*n matrix of logged GAUSSIAN densities evaluated at x.
% Dldens [double] m*n matrix of first derivatives of logged GAUSSIAN densities.
% D2ldens [double] m*n matrix of second derivatives of logged matrix of GAUSSIAN densities.
